3 weeks agoThe food and drinks here were great and the atmosphere was really chill. Service was good as well! I recommend coming here to grab a few drinks and hangout with friends :) their poutine is also really good and not too salty!

2 months agoWent to this bar in Gastown, ordered their beer and rosemary fries - perfectly fried with cheese and herbs, complimented the dips. Beer was good too. Just didn't enjoy the music and the atmosphere.

7 months agoGreat place to grab drinks and food with friends. The staff is super friendly and the prices are fair. I especially recommend the Parmesan rosemary fries as an appetizer/snack it comes with the best curry sauce. Packed on Fridays, quieter on other days, plenty of seating as well as arcade games.

8 months agoMaybe I came on an off Friday evening and maybe they were short staffed? But the staff sure did look like they were doing a lot standing around. The service was incredibly slow. We decided not to eat because of this. And I don’t think I can forgive my Old Fashioned being served with regular ice.

8 months agoPretty cool, chill place. Came here for a couple of drinks and some food. The interior is definitely old school. Service was good, the food was delicious. They have some games you can play, always enjoy that option! I would recommend checking this place out, have some drinks, some food, and play some games. I am sure we will be returning.
