Pros:
+ Consistently good pub/gastropub food. Definitely not the mediocre pub food at some of the other bar chains around the city. I'm talking proper food, good ingredients and they mix it up with great options on the daily specials. Not to mention, pretty large portions. Overall, excellent value for the price.
+ The feature wines and beers are always delicious.
+ The staff are all really friendly and start to recognize you as a regular, which you will likely want to become after a visit.
+ Lots of seating available.
When there is a line, the bar staff will take your order so you can have a drink in line +++
+ I've even gotten take-out and it's just as delicious when we get home.
Cons: Not a real con, but the line? It's not even that serious, it's a busy place and sometimes there's a line but it moves fast enough depending on how large of a group you have.
The Crowd: A good mix between your everyday Cabbagetown locals that hang out at the bar, groups of friends, young families, couples and then a larger mix of "young professionals" (hate that term) in the area as the night progresses.
