As long as you go to The Porch with realistic expectations, you'll have a great time. As all the reviews say, the drinks are all overpriced and pretty watered down. However, this isn't the first bar to overcharge for drinks; welcome to life downtown. And to combat the slow service, why don't you just walk over to the bar and order a drink for yourself, rather than waiting for the server to come by? There are about 3 flights of stairs that you have to climb in order to get to the bar, but it's hardly worth complaining about. Honestly, the view was absolutely incredible and probably one of the best you'll find (if not the best) in Toronto. Although it isn't a bar that I would go to on a regular basis, it's definitely worth going at least once or twice. I had a fantastic time!
