Cute, hipster-like & different than the common queen west vibe. This place has a great sidewalk patio backyard patio and also upstairs patio. I've never seen it not busy so It's easiest to get a seat as a couple or small group. You feel instantly transported to some other European world as they have a live band playing and serve Hungarian and other Slavic dishes, drinks and cocktails.
Laid back place to get a drink, and have a snack while watching live music. Kind of a hipster vibe, jazz was on when I was there. There's a back patio as well. Recommended by a bartender at a different joint. Would definitely go back.
A very nice place with an Eastern European twist. Will suit a homeseeker.
I’ve loved this place for its live music and the vibe. The food can be better but I’m not complaining. I ordered veg with cottage cheese something and it was really good. Wish they had more variety but that doesn’t change how awesome this place is.
My favourite bar in the city so far!Best bands with AMAZING musicians, great east European vibe, food and drinks, you get easily transported to a cool and fun ambiance as soon as you enter into the bar. They just make reservations for 6 people or more, which was bad for us, but we had an external table and after 30min we got an amazing spot close to the band. If you’re sick of the same boring stuff Toronto provides to you, go to DROM asap. The server asking for tips with a bucket feels kind of awkward but great to recognize the bands’ amazing job! Points to the PHENOMENAL goulash dish and selection of drinks.
Hands down the absolute jewel of queen west.Great food, great music, great drinks, great staff.As someone of Montenegrin descent, it is SO COOL to have somewhere DOWNTOWN that highlights the culture of Eastern Europe (and more)Must haves:Trying out all the liquors from various places. They've got quince liquor. Theyve got stuff from Montenegro. Theyve got Slivovitz... Just try everything.FOOD:Its the only place I know that serves cevapi, so you gotta try that. Their pierogies are out of this world too. BUT. YOU MUST HAVE THE RASPOUTINE: GOULASH POUTINE.Music:Pick any day, any time, you cant go wrong. They have Bring Your Own Brass nights too. IncredibleHonestly, im gonna go there right now. I just adore this place and cant stay away.(PRO TIP: ASK FOR THE INFUSED VODKAS)
Little hidden gem ... I went here as friends recommended it to us this past Saturday. The band and energy in the place was great. The staff were all nice and helpfulLet me tell you about the food , I admit that I judged the food to be bar food so how good can it be . Well, I was wrong our group ordered bunch of things from the menu to share and try while everything was top notch. It was surprisingly great and very tastyThe Sunday night I heard was magical as my cousins went there and shared videos . I wish I can make it but I will be back there again in the near futureLovely place and I wish they keep the same vibe
Went to watch Heavyweight Brass band performing live with friends. Absolutely loved the atmosphere, the staff were amazing. Had loads of fun with everyone including the staff members dancing and cheering. Overall, a must visit if you love live music and a cheerful atmosphere.
Went out for the first time with friends since the reopening and DROM was a great place to do it! With the busyness of the opening weekend, getting into the venue with reservations and service was a bit slow, but it was also nice not to be rushed out of the restaurant. The tables were very small and it was a bit of a hassle fitting all our food and drinks on the bar with a group of 7, but the jazz music more than made up for it. While the atmosphere and amazing music made you feel like you were in a music venue, the food made you feel like you were at home (comfort, homey food). We ordered a variety of things including the Cevapi, Buckwheat and Mushroom Salad, and of course the Goulash. Enjoyed our experience here!
Very eclectic and cute space! Live music all week, and a food menu with Eastern European delights. I tried the Pelmeni, Siberian dumplings, and they were so good! Highly recommend! I want to come back for sure
