Small menu but food is delicious. Disappointing that an item we craved was sold out – and we had an early (6:00) reservation. Our server was fabulous and we had a great time. But for the love of gawd and all patrons, replace those torturous patio chairs!

A friend lives close to here so we walked over to check this place out. We arrived two hours before close. The server was nice but when we arrived and sat down I felt our group was rather not welcomed. We ordered a round of drinks and they brought us the bill before the drinks, which I found rather rude. I dont usually drink in Toronto so maybe this is normal? It was pretty busy so I don't think they were closing early. The bar and the restrooms were clean.

$15 eggs Benny on Queen west. Say less. Was just there to eat, I left satisfied. Fingerling potatoes were fire. Great brunch. Small menu.

Our server was wonderful and attentive to our needs! We sat outside near the bonfire which was very cozy. Food options are limited, however the drinks were definitely on the more boozey side compared to what I'm used to -- which is a good thing, no complaints!

Great spot, nice patio, and fantastic staff! Cocktails were great, unique, out of the ordinary, but a bit pricey (average $17). Had the Fried Chicken sandwich. Was good but didn't blow me away. Would recommend for small groups of friends, dates, etc. Very lively on a Friday night, as one would expect.

Nice patio and decent selection of beers and ciders. Inside is cozily lit and has quite a party vibe on weekends. Food menu is on the basic side, but fine for the type of vibe (snacking during drinks vs sitting down to a meal). A little pricy but no more than any other spot downtown. Staff seem fun too. At one point the table next to us ordered shots then changed their minds, so the server offered them to us. Young crowd for the most part, pretty laid back spot in general.

Great patio in exciting neighbourhood. Staff really nice and helpful.

Really understaffed on the Sunday (only one cook) when I went for brunch. Staff were doing their best but the service was very slow and severely impacted the meal. While the brunch menu was limited, the food was good and the setting was cozy - but I wouldn't return for brunch based unless this issue is resolved.

We had an amazing time at this bar! The hosts and servers were fantastic and so was the food! We happened to be there during an event and it didn’t disappoint. We would definitely come back another time!! ??

Kelly was our server and she was amazing! She was attentive, and super sweet. I brought my friend here for brunch and I ordered the eggs bunny (vegetarian with avocado instead of bacon) and it was delicious. The coffee was really good! We were there at 11:15am so had the whole place to ourselves! People didn’t start arriving until later. The price of the food was reasonable as well. I will definitely be back!
