I've been to Adelaide St. Pub twice and I have to admit there are some highs and some lows. My perspective of the joint is based on after-work drinks/dinner on the 2nd-floor rooftop patio.
First of all, it's Adelaide *Street* Pub, not Adelaide *Saint* Pub, however the idea of a Saint Pub excites me more than it should.
The highs:
-- Very comfortable patio with a mix of sun and shade, which is great when your group ranges from "Lightbulbs give me a burn" to "sunlight makes me stronger!"
-- The food is pretty good. I had the jerk wings and enjoyed the Jamaican flavour
The lows:
-- We tried to reserve one of their lounge areas and they said there was a minimum $1,000 tab. I saw some of the groups enjoying the VIP zones and there's no way they were reaching $1,000.
-- Along the same lines the waitresses can be quite bitchy. I don't really blame them, though, I blame the fact that there aren't enough bartenders or servers working the Friday evening crowd. Although the server we had last time lied about her system not being able to split the bill, but later split out a few people who were leaving early. I think she was just too lazy/busy to keep track.
Overall it's a decent place to get a pint or mixed drink while enjoying some rays, but there are many other options in the city that I prefer. I doubt I'll be returning too often.
