| - Prenup pub
Was here on a Saturday evening around 5/6 not too many people. My first time at this gastro bar, my wife has been there a few times I thought I'd give it a try! We were a group of 7 people.
Location: On College st, just across the street of UofT. On street parking only. Nearest parking lot is on McCaul a few minutes walk from the pub. You can find on street parking near by, but it's very limited. 3/5 stars
Atmosphere: Even during the day, the interior was very dark. Very much a pub feel, decor is man cave look with leather everywhere. Not so loud music so conversation within your party is not a screaming match. 4/5 stars
Service: Well here's where it starts to go down hill for me. We were ready for order, even when flagging other waiters, they would not take our order since they did not handle our table. For a non busy time, it took them a long time to bring out the food. Furthermore, we had to request several time for water and was ignored. We were also being pressured to vacate the tables, although there was no line up. Very poor service 1/5 stars
Food: Typical bar food. I ordered a grilled chicken wrap with fries and my wife had the lamb. Nothing special, no real good flavours. The lamb was bland and chewy. As a Montrealer, I was disappointed to find out they call fries, gravy and mozzarella cheese as a poutine. I'm sorry but that's not a real poutine. Plus the gravy was too salty 1/5 stars
Price: Everything was reasonably priced. As a pub, their beer is priced correctly, non inflated. 3/5 stars
Overall: Not really impressed with this place. I guess they are still in business because of the university across the street. A bar near campus is a plus. Come for drinks but make sure you eat before going there. 2/5 stars
