David GJune 16, 2015Great choice of beers 🍻, whisky, delicious burgers 🍔. Great brunch, and awesome patio in the summertime. It's just a great, authentic pub to go to.
Charles WhaleyJuly 15, 2014The burgers may be great, but this is no "burger joint". Last time I was there they required a reservation to get out on their beautiful backyard patio, and you had to order a meal to sit out there.
Robbyn GordonJuly 20, 2023Stop by for a bite to eat before seeing a show at The Danforth Music Hall! Great food, patio, atmosphere & fantastic servers! Highly recommend: Roasted Chicken Pizza
Ryan BradleyMarch 2, 2013Allen's often gets quite full before concerts at The Danforth Music Hall next door. However, much of their menu (including their amazing burgers) can be ordered next door at The Dora Keogh.
- RDecember 24, 2019A great place with an amazing patio. Extensive beer list and the burger really is quite possibly the best in town.
Jarvis EmeraldMarch 1, 2012By far one of the BEST patios in Tornoto. There are HUGE weeping willows out back and you feel like you are in another place when you go. Food is amazing and FRESH
Kyo SongFebruary 15, 2016Great selection of beers, lamb burger special was amazing. Great back patio during the warmer seasons
TOTweetFestFebruary 10, 2012Dublin lamb shank w/ champ - tasted gr8. Altho portion-size was on the small side for price $17.95 (lunch-time). Draft beers pricy too. Not cheap to eat here but has large sized patio in the back- Jarvis EmeraldJuly 23, 2011I have had the Quesadilla, Omlette with fresh Greens and Black Bean Soup and I looooved them all!...BTW they do have Amsterdam Framboise (raspberry beer ) here :) Read more
Jennie KApril 17, 2012Best burgers! Beef is grass fed, no hormones, ground on site. Oh and one of the prettiest patio's in the city!
Matthew HollingsheadNovember 15, 2016Delicious hamburgers, beautiful back patio, adorable decor. Classy and casual.
Brunch is great at Allen's. The staff is always top notch and friendly
- Jeremy BarkerNovember 9, 2010When Allen's is busy they are often cold to famalies and groups, but their burgers are absolutely stunning. Order one while at Dora Keogh.
Decent service belies the awesome taps and VQA selection. Oh and killer burgers!
this is the place to meetup before shows at the Danforth music hall
Liza ChalaidopoulosJune 29, 2013Service is slow and a bit pretentious. Backyard patio is gorgeous, but they'll kick you out after a while if you're not having dinner.
Heather RoxbyMay 4, 2013The sides and burger extras are large enough to share. Also, garden salad is just a bag of lettuce.
Jodi BrownJuly 29, 2012Caesar's plain presentation (no garnish, no rim) is deceiving. Absolutely delicious.
Neil SweeneyJuly 24, 2013They kick you off patio at 6 if not eating even though patio is half full. Shortsighted
Robb HareSeptember 9, 2011Highly recommend the burger w/ blue cheese + bacon. And a pint of Kilkenny.
Jennifer McHenrySeptember 3, 2013Service is horrid. I hear the food is good but we'll never know because we couldn't get any of the staff in a near empty restaurant to take our order.
huilineAugust 15, 2013Food was plain Jane and not worth a second visit based on quality. Wife enjoyed her burger.
Stella Artois CanadaJune 7, 2011Their Kuala Lumpur Shrimp pairs incredibly with Stella Artois Legere.
Connie CrosbyDecember 28, 2014Not impressed with the service here: uneven when I am with friends; not well served when a single diner. I have stopped eating here.
Jurgis VidzisOctober 16, 2011DON'T go to this palce !worst burgers I had ever tried. if you want a really good burger recommend you "W Burger" on college and Yonge.- Ryan BradleyMarch 2, 2013Allen's serves up arguably the best burger in Toronto, made from fresh, locally sourced, grass-fed beef that is ground in house and doesn't use any "trim".
mia pOctober 24, 2011I wouldn't just call this place a "burger joint" - should be changed to "gastropub" perhaps.
Moxie GarrettFebruary 18, 2012This place used to be great. Avoid brunch like the plague. The food is getting as miserable as the usual service.
I can't imagine anything being better than the burger. The wings are great too if you like vinegar. Don't leave without experimenting with a couple of new beer choices.
Stephanie CanarteJuly 18, 2011Honestly I would say is over rated meat isn't that tasty too simple over priced and service is so slow
