We decided to check out the Black Bull because of something that intrigued my husband in one of our guide books.
The outside patio seemed like the place to be for people-watching in our area of Queen Street West, but it was so unmercifully crowded, that we took a seat inside at the bar.
Our bartender was great, but sitting inside was just plain depressing. If you can get a seat outside, totally go for it, but if you're relegated to the indoors, maybe check out the Horseshoe Tavern down the street.
