| - Get to know John. He owns the place, is there most days, and wants you to have a good time.
The menu leans heavily on local and seasonal, though not dogmatically, and keeps the list short enough that the kitchen can actually get basically everything right. This has become something of a running joke with our group, since the excellent and ever-changing specials make it hard to return to the standards very often.
The vegetarian chili is a favourite of mine, especially on cold days - very chunky with beans and veg, not just tomato-sauce-without-meat. I'm also a big fan of the pulled pork sandwich with fries, if you run meatward. For apps, try the buffalo shrimp, and wonder why more pubs don't carry them - delicious.
Save room for the sticky toffee pudding. Don't make that face, I'm serious. I don't care that you don't normally eat dessert, or that sticky toffee pudding sounds too rich. It'll split up to 4 ways happily, so you can cop out that way if you want, but you really do have to order it. I kind of insist.
Tap list is all Canadian, again leaning on the local, and the guest tap changes monthly. John's got your hookup there, too.
