Working class bar in the midst of King/Bathurst? Yes please! A terribly yuppie neighbourhood has very few of these sports bar, watering hole type bars. I'm impressed this place exists on this corner and hasn't been driven out yet.
Kind of a two-star place that is boosted by another 2 stars because 1) The service was impeccable and 2) I hate to loss of the "blue-collar bar" in downtowns.
Now as others have said, the service can be hit and miss. But I got the "bearish" server who was nothing but excellent. We had just finished a massive dinner and the thought of ordering more than a water or diet coke seemed impossible. We ended up staying for 2 hockey games (6ish hours)- and just ordered pop and the server was nice, attentive and didn't hassle us to order more in a busy bar.
That's the kind of service I like. I sometimes feel bad about ordering so little, but I make it up by giving excellent reviews and bringing them more business = )
ps: a great place to end up for teh playoffs- big screen with sound.
