Okay, So I did have a really great time here...just there was a few things that brought the overall rating down.
I'll begin with the reason that brought the overall rating down. There is one man who seemed to be working there that was HIGHLY judgmental. He almost made me cry. It put a bit of a bad hue on the whole evening, but I tried to let it go to not have the whole thing ruined. I walked up to the jukebox that is in the building for customer use...myself and my friend placed a toonie in for 4 songs, my friend picked two, and then It was my turn to pick two after they played. I walked up quickly and played the first thing I saw that I enjoyed that was slightly more 'group' friendly. (Abba-Dancing Quuen) and the employee walked up and asked what I put on. I told him, and he said "wow" (condescendingly) "Its a little early for Dancing Queen", and rolled his eyes and walked away.
Then after the song ended, he came back said "you song is done, I can put on a playlist, but you still have a loonie in" Seemingly annoyed at the whole thing. I replied "Go ahead, you already judged me on my song choice" he nodded and walked away. I felt like a restaurant should not make a patron feel this way. I told my husband, and he said that when he used the jukebox earlier that evening, the same guy boasted at him from by the bar "Better be something good!" If I had known this before my incident I would have been extra upset. This one particular employee should be trained better. i get that music is subjective, but its a juxebox, there wasnt too many people there, and I did pay for it to have a nice experience, not to be made to feel poorly.
So, the good! The atmosphere is fun! The sort of patio-esque open space (surrounded by glass because its winter) There is a few classic arcade games, including Whack-a-mole, foozeball and Big Buck Hunter Safari. Wayyyy fun! I imagine it can get a little rowdy later in the evening as people get more drunk. Super fun! There was one bartender that was so amazingly nice! He was constantly smiling and just seemed like a bright person.
The food: The food was good! especially for a "pub" type place.
The wings were tasty: standard, the sauce is served separately, which I enjoy because you can control the amount of sauce per wing. This does however allow more of the 'grease' that they are fried in to show on the wing. So if you chose to not dunk them, they would be a litttle on the greasy side.
The shimp tacos were tasty! There was 3 shrimp per taco, so there was enough shrimp in each bite. They had this fried tortilla??? strip served on top of the taco that added crunch to the whole thing. WIN.
Pulled Pork Sandwiches: They were not overly sweet, which is a good thing considering sometimes it can be all sweet sauce. There is two in a serving and served on a nice bun.
Mac n Cheese: good! Not the best, but still worth getting. I found it a little too garlicy and the sauce not quite creamy enough. This being said, it was not so creamy that it hurt your arteries going down, So my suggestion would just be to thicken the rue a little! But the flavor mixed very very well!
