| - Fantastic pub!
Typically, pubs in North America that advertise themselves as offering an "authentic" Irish or English pub experience fall far short. This is one pub that delivers.
Five solid Irish beers on tap, and even the non-Irish selection is good (Erdinger, etc.). Best of all, they actually pour it right, and it comes in the correct glass.
The food menu reads like most other pubs, but when I see a pot pie on the menu I try it. So I did here, and it was great. Actual pieces of steak, which is more than one can say about most restaurant pot pies (especially chicken pot pies!).
Most pubs I've been to in the UK feel like someone's living room. This place was too big to be a living room, but almost had that same feeling.
Was there for lunch on a Saturday, and it was empty. Perhaps things liven up in the evening, but I can't speak to that.
Biggest drawback is probably that it's located essentially in the middle of a parking lot in Vaughan, next to a movie theatre and an Ikea. But beggars can't be choosers, I guess.
Will definitely go again.
