This is one of my favorite go to places in downtown Toronto.
First, although unorthadox for a British pub, they have a decent draft selection which includes one or two cast conditioned ales.
The food is not a carbon copy of the numerous irish nacho serving pub chains which litter every street corner. Instead, it highlights traditional British flavours.
Snacks like Scotch eggs, a bag of chips and scratchings as well as different toasts, British cheeses and traditional entrees fill the menu.
In particular, they have one of the underrated burgers in town. The rabbit and potato pie is to die for.
If that's not your fancy, look out for the blackboard specials. Last time I had a short rib and Stilton pudding which was divine.
To finish things off, try the sticky toffee pudding. It's one of the best I've every had. It is moist and you can taste the treacle.
If anything the bar fills up quickly, the seating is a bit awkward and the staff can be a little crusty at times bit then again, us Brits have perfected the art of misery.
God save the queen.
