    An awesome hidden gem in downtown Toronto. Great atmosphere and always good people. Employees are some of the most genuinely nice people you'll ever meet.

    Very relaxed ambiance. Makes you feel like being in a college bar, complete with pool table and vending machine. And the portions are HUGE!

    Loved the atmosphere on the second floor🌟 Chicken wings with honey and garlic are the best👌🏼 and it's reasonable price wise

    Cheap food and cheap lager. But wine list is laughingly short and we were told they don't do any "fancy" drinks (like a Piña Colada, though might do a Margarita). Also some waitstaff is scary :O

    Upstairs is comfy and cozy. Great couches. Feels like a living room with a bar.

    Great staff if you're not a tool, an incredible cross section of Toronto. Big love to Kat. Suggested tip 20% these folks deserve it.

    An "old man bar" that's as authentic as it is spacious. A real gem where you can hold an actual conversation over an inexpensive beverage.

    Stay downstairs if you appreciate customer service. The staff upstairs are rude and completely undeserving of your tips.

    Servers are great but there's one that ruins it for the whole place.Some white douche with glasses has the worst service! I would only recommend this place if you don't get the asshole serving you!

    They asked us for credit/debit card upfront and said that they will hold it until we need it to pay for our meals .... WTF ?!

    Wake your friends up to a 'new' drinking experience. Recommend the Library over one of those 'vapid' clubs. Read more
