Stopped eating it as she and I were grossed out. Needed up ordering fries to replace it food that wasn't eaten. Service was really slow, but the waitress was friendly so I stayed a bit longer thinking it would get better. I had to get a server 3 times (which in 2 hours is a bit much). Normally I have no problems but Friday June 12th around 4pm the bar was a bit busy but does off. Then I didn't check my bill and later realized I didn't get any kind of price adjustment on the food my daughter didn't eat and had to pay extra for the fires thinking it was in place of the kids meal that wasn't fully eaten Not impressed by the service received.

Tried a number of things, including wings, taquitos, nachos and their Philly Steak sandwich. All were great. I was pleasantly surprised how good the Philly was (not a traditional Philly, but still very good). Wings were great, they come dusted. The Butter Buffalo sauce was on point, but next time I'll order those wings naked, better suited for that kind of sauce. Nachos again very good, includes chilli, a lot of places don't offer that.

Parking seemed limited at first, but there's more available in the back. Just a tip: be careful not to miss the entrance, since exiting is a one-way street and re-entering can be tricky. We arrived around 6:45 pm and saw a small line with two groups ahead, but the place is much bigger than it looks from the outside and we were seated quickly in a comfortable booth for four. The pub was clean, and I was especially surprised at how spacious and tidy the washrooms were--not what I usually expect from a pub, which tend to feel older and worn. The menu is huge, and TVs are everywhere--even in our booth. Between us, we tried a good range of dishes: 1. Caprese Salad with Steak - nicely balanced with pesto, though the steak was a little dry. 2. Fish and Chips - incredible portion for $18! Crispy, perfectly cooked fish with fries, coleslaw, and even a Caesar salad. The fries were well-seasoned (no ketchup needed), coleslaw was enjoyable despite me usually not liking it, and the Caesar was delicious. 3. Mexican Salad - flavorful, fresh, and generous in portion. 4. Tuesday Wing Special - wings were $0.90 each, so I ordered 15 with a Coke Zero. The garlic Parmesan was disappointing--dry and lacking flavor--but the Buffalo ranch wings were tender and spot-on. Service was friendly, though our waitress could have been more proactive with drink and water refills. Overall, I was impressed. Clean space, huge portions, good value, and a welcoming pub atmosphere. Definitely a solid stop if you're in the area.

When we went for dinner, it was pretty busy with lots of locals and families. Despite this, the service was great and they got our dishes served in really good time.

For the 2 of us, we were very hungry so we ordered an EVERYTHING GRILLED PLATTER and GRILLED VEGETABLE & GOAT CHEESE SALAD to share. There was definitely enough food for us. The platter had a good variety of meats. The shrimp and crispy but airy light tater tots were my favourite. The quality of the meats for the steak, chicken, lamb skewers & grilled squid were definitely mediocre and a bit rubber, but still cooked & seasoned well. The salad was overall satisfactory too!

One thing to remember is that this is a hotel restaurant, so the prices are ridiculously expensive. $16 for 8 small wings (with very little sauce).

You just have to agree on the protein as the sizzling plate with protein and peppers and onions comes as one big stack. Service again friendly and fast, however one thing that cropped up second time in a row which makes me believe it's intentional is lack of attention after the food is dropped. No one comes back to see if ok or you need a refill on your soft drink. You have to wave someone down. Both times restaurant was barely 1/2 full and different servers as well.

The bar area is bright and well laid out with a good mix of booths and high tables. I can't comment on the dining room as I have never sat in that section. I tend to prefer to sit in the bar area as it always seems more lively. This time, we came in to grab some drinks and grubs before catching a movie at the Landmark Cinema (my favorite theatre in Durham region). We sat at the bar and ordered the usual bar fare with a few pints of non-American beer. Their pan bread is a guilty pleasure with soft, pan baked bread sitting in a delicious mix of garlic butter, some herbs and grated parm. Yum! Their wings were on the small side but fried well with the accompanying dipping sauces (med Buffalo and ranch for the veggie sticks). It was exactly what you would expect. The bar staff were jovial and efficient and we had a great pre-movie dinner. We'll likely to continue coming here for the convenience of location and standard bar experience.
