Great service. Pub food delights. And great weekly events. I dropped my phone out front and Gabby's staff member found it thank goodness and held on to it till I returned. read more

Quite disappointed with the food overall! Chicken was dry, no taste, food was cold. The chicken pasta - no taste and cold. I'm sorry but it was horrible and sad that we had to throw it away. read more

It doesn't have to be this way!!!! Recently I went into this new location to check out the Gabby's vibe and have lunch. I had never been into a Gabby's and was excited that a pub fare type of restaurant was open in the junction. Unfortunately, Gabby's fits a typical pub pattern. This pattern assumes that people just want beer (or that the money is made from beer), and the quality of the food doesn't matter. I had a burger with onion rings. It was small and flavorless. The bun was a bit stale. The onion rings were stuck together just as they had been in the freezer. The lettuce was limp. The burger was 12-13$. I am not against chains. In fact, you can have a much better burger with fries and a coke at Wendy's for about 1/2 the price. unfortunately, there is not a Wendy's very close by. Gabby's may be good for a beer, but stay away from the food until you have had at least three beers. It is a shame that this place doesn't seem to care about good food. It has a good pub formula, just typically not-so-good pub food. read more

Gabby's Junction - people sitting at the bar - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Gabby's has the only consistent hours and late night kitchen in the western half of the Junction. Unlike some of the other bars in the area, they are open until 2:00 a.m. and their kitchen is open until last call. The beer selection is your typical sports bar stuff from the big brewing companies like Moosehead, Molsons, etc. - which is fine - as other bars in area cater to the craft beer crowd. The place has a great back patio that is open until 2:00 am, and has a couple of large HDTV screens with proper HD signals feeding them. When the patio isn't open, the place is still large and is good for groups. Lots of TVs for viewing sports on as well, with good sight lines. Though some of the large TVs inside do not have proper HD signals feeding them, it still seems to be getting good clean digital standard definition signals though. I found the service to be attentive and the wing specials on Monday and Wednesday are good. I find the food at this location is very good for what it is essentially: American diner food. This place accepts credit, debit and cash. So I give it a four out of five because I've had only good experiences here. Definitely recommend it for late night eating and for watching sporting events. read more

Gabby's Junction - Back patio, 2:00 a.m. - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Personally I am not the biggest 'chain' fan but the Gabbys in the Junction, specifically has always has decent food. Yes, service is slow but the service is decent considering they always short staff the place! Tried out their Mad Jacks Rootbeer and well what a lovely discovery that was Poutine is one of my faves and it's not bad here. $8 for a decent size and add $1 for your choice of chicken or ground beef--not bad! This location has a lovely patio in the back with 3 TVs and very comfortable seating. Inside, plenty of TVs to watch all your sporting desires. Go Jays Go! read more

Gabby's Junction - a menu and a toy bus - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

See all

Was here recently to watch a Raptors game with a friend. Place was 1/2 full. Took 10 minutes to be served. Ordered wings and found them to be very small and physically abused. As if the chickens were plucked by a lawnmower. Terrible. Service was friendly but that is it. Unlikely to return. read more

I ordered basic chicken fingers and fries thru DoorDash and this is the first time I've ever seen chicken fingers go wrong. They fried it so much that it turned black. No only did it visually look unappetizing as in the picture the batter was rock hard, chicken dried out, no taste. I wonder if this is how it is always served or they felt it was ok to serve this since I am a DoorDash customer and couldn't complain in person. Not sure what the other menu items are like but chicken fingers are hard to mess up like this. What a waste of time, money and my dinner. read more

Gabby's Junction - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Went to see Toronto FC win. Beer list not bad. House wine drinkable but that's about it. Nachos were amazingly bad. Lots of chips that were dry. Cheese sparse, bland, and not layered so some dried beyond being able to carve it off the waxy paper it was served on but most chips untouched by cheese. Tomatoes were in big chunks you couldn't get to balance on a nacho and they were quite cold. The tomatoes, like the tiny shreds of lettuce and the seven peppers, were on top and clearly hadn't been heated, so that was weird. Small side ramekins of sour cream and a very mild salsa did not help this mound of almost all chips much. Save your $16 and have another drink. read more

The ceasars are incredibly watered down and tasteless and the poutine had more gravy than fries.

I don't usually review chain establishments but I had to step in and defend the Junction Gabby's. Sometimes I come here because in a hood peppered with very hip joints to drink and bite and play pinball, It can be refreshing to enjoy a booth of unpretentious familiarity. Beer with a blue collar. Useless Review Tidbit: I enjoy writing at the bar on a weeknight when the place is mostly empty and I can chill out with the nostalgia of sport narration in the background. I know I can hang out and no one will rush or bother me. I'm pretty sure By going there I'm recreating my parents basement in Brampton and the hours I spent doing homework while my dad watched the Leafs. It taps right into my creative calm. But that isn't helpful for you, is it? Okay. What might be of interest to you is that this particular Gabby's has one of the *best* gluten free menus I've seen in any bar. Ever. Ask for it. It is a separate menu, which includes pizza, burgers, and other great selection. Two choices of gluten free beer are usually in stock (I'd go for Bards). It is totally wheelchair accessible with a large main floor bathroom at the back. The patio is big and lovely. It's clean and kid friendly from what I've seen. Sadly this place doesn't get a ton of business -- but that means its a safe bet if you want to get a table, even for a group. The food is, what you would expect. Not mind blowing, but not bad at all. Quite decent bar food. A lot of choice. The steak goat cheese salad is HUGE and delicious, by the way. And the service. Yes, they seem to have a lot of turnover in the staff. But I've been going off and on for years now and have had nothing but warm, honest service. Down to earth, helpful, attentive when they need to be but not overly so. For some reason I feel like Im in a small(er) town when I go there. Occasionally, occasionally it becomes apparent that some servers just don't have enough training (like when I ordered a martini and got a big smile and a "sure!" I had to make sure to catch her as she walked away to complete the order -vodka not gin). Was it a great martini? Not by a long shot but I tend to consider the context. Gabby's is not where you go for a great martini, and I knew that. I was there for the easy going atmosphere and the company. Are my standards too low? Maybe. Does managing your expectations help your dining experience? Probably. Mainly I want to say don't let some of these poor reviews scare you away. The Junction Gabby's is a good one. And the staff are good people. read more

You ever go to a bar and say "let's get the nachos...you can't f*ck up nachos!" Well Gabby's can. It's so sad how bad the food is here. -Fin- read more

I've been to many Gabby's in my lifetime. I've also been to this location before. Generally it is what you might expect for a chain pub: average. Not bad average; it's generally good but they serve hamburgers and nachos so what are you really expecting? Well a group of us was there recently for weekend brunch and it was absolutely horrid. Every single dish was cold. Every single dish got sent back. This is bacon and eggs we're talking about here, this isn't gastronomy at its finest. The whole ordeal took forever and we all agreed we will not be returning. Dundas in the Junction continues to grow and Gabby's is not the only or best option. If you're going to be an average chain restaurant, I think your quality margins are much thinner than the competition. Gabby's just can't afford to be bad because there are so many better options available. If you're looking for pub-type food, support our local community and take your business to Axis. They have better food and better service. read more

PLEASE NOTE: This review is only for a delivery order from Gabby's at this location, through Just-eat. I have not been at the location and cannot speak for its atmosphere, staff or quality of service. My girlfriend and I decided to treat ourselves last night and order some food in while we watched Survivor. We only had our debit card on us, so we decided on trying a new place from Just-eat. We settled on Gabby's. She had a burger and fries, I had a double order of boneless wings and fries. The delivery time quoted was 50 minutes, it arrived in about 40. Driver was very polite, and is the kind of driver you'd want representing your company. The condiments for the burger were all on the side, which is good - they don't just assume you want all-dressed and put it all on. As for the food, the burger was reported as "good, though it's never as good delivered as it is fresh with something like a burger. The boneless wings were good tasting, even though a couple were a little soggy from the wing sauce. Only problem was, they were TINY - barely the size of popcorn chicken. Still though, tasty as can be. I will probably re-order from them again in the future. read more

Surly waitstaff , dried out sandwich. I mean, that might be your thing. I've had pretty good food here in the past, and perhaps it's just this waitress on this particular night. read more

Gabby's Junction - "how is everything?" I know I'm supposed to just automatically say "good", They charged me for this dried out microwaved nonsense. - Canadian (New) Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Ordered from Gabby's through Uber Eats and spent well over $100 on food here for two. Found not one, not two, but THREE long strands of brown hair in a salad and wings that we had ordered. We called to have this justified and the hostess that answered was very rude and could care less about our issue. After spending that amount of money at your establishment and then being inconvenienced and disgusted with finding that hair, the least you could do is apologize. With that being said, I will never order from this place ever again. Food was horrible or at least what we had of it, customer service was appalling. Would never recommend this place. Unless you like eating hair with your food. read more

Most of the reviews are pretty grim on here. Wasn't expecting much at all. Been here previously and the food did suck. However, this time I ordered the Guinness Beef Pot Pie with a side of onion rings and I was pleasantly surprised. Lots of flavor. Chunks of beef. Seasoned well. Only $10.99. Go for it. Dip the onion rings in the pot pie and maybe some mayonnaise. Yum. The pastry could use some work though, a bit tough. Service is a bit slow. All good though. read more

If you've been to a Gabby's you kind of know what to expect. A pretty standard Canadian Pub that serves popular beer brands, and has a pretty big menu without a real signature dish so all the food is just kind of OK. This Gabby's has a few pluses, it's family friendly with some specials for Kids meals that help the wallet. It also, like the other Gabby's around town, has their half price wing specials on Monday and Wednesdays. Another plus on this location is their back patio in the summer time that is a pretty sweet little spot they have back there. You aren't going to get anything mind-blowing from but it's not bad for families, and the prices are reasonable. read more

I had fish and chips and fruit cheesecake. i'll never visit this location ever again... fish batter is like eating a loaf of bread and cheesecake tasted like its been sitting there for god knows how long... -.-' read more

Just ate at Gabbys in the Junction. First the good: The Ceaser was pretty good. That's it. Now the bad. Service was amateurish, food was TERRIBLE. Any fried item we got was greasy to the point of sopping and we ordered a child portion hamburger and asked for a couple of pickle slices on the side. We did literally get two pickle slices on the side for which they charged us $1.oo for (!?) Please. Never ate there before.. never will again. There are LOTS of pubs out there, pick any and you'll probably do better. read more

Only ok. We were in Toronto for the weekend and this was within walking distance from our airbnb so we decided to check it out. I got a Caesar salad which was meh. My husband got Shrimp tacos which were pretty good but not outstanding. read more

It was my first time ordering from them, which I did through Ubereats and overall I was not impressed. I ordered a pizza and the crust was super soggy, and so were the sweet potato fries that came with the wingsl. The Lava cake was actually the best part of my meal but I doubt I'll be returning. read more

Not sure about this one. I've used the toilets at Gabby's on King (perfect spot to stop to unload before a film at the TIFF's Bell Lightbox) and Gabby's Roncesvalles and have had no problems whatsoever: clean, well-maintained facilities with good water pressure, free of offensive stall graffiti. But what's going on in the Junction? This Gabby's only has one toilet. And it's on the first floor! Not much privacy there. The toilet is accessible, which is great, but it's also unisex. So if you're there to watch the game, prepare to wait in line to use this toilet. I'd just as soon go at home! But where's the glamour in that? read more

I've always liked Gabby's and had a positive experience until I ordered online and requested that burgers be cooked "well." Found hair in the burgers... I guess they didn't appreciate the extra request. Won't order again. read more

I ordered off skip the dishes and received a burnt cheese pizza... It tasted like cardboard to keep it short. I will not eat here again as I was extremely dissatisfied. read more

A solid establishment. Lots of sports, drinks specials, seating, and a patio. Clean, and standard sports pub menu. Wings, burgers, wraps are good. Consistent service, decent prices.. Only sports pub in the Junction. Should be 5/5 but I'm a bit biased as I prefer a St. Louis over Gabby's. read more

Ordered Gabbys through just eat. Got a call ten minutes later from just eat saying the restaurant claimed I cancelled my order. I told them I hadn't canceled anything so they put me on hold and called the restaurant. I was then told the restaurant said they wouldn't deliver to my house because I had previously requested to pay cash at the door and then refused to pay. I had never ordered from them before but was told to order with debit instead. So I ordered with debit. Half an hour later I was told the order was cancelled. I called the restaurant and was told "your girlfriend called to cancel the order". I told them no such thing happened, so I was put on hold and then told "the problem is on just eat's end". I asked if I could just order over the phone and was told no. Just eat has confirmed to me that both times Gabby's cancelled the order. After talking to my housemate I learned that they had a problem with Gabby's as well. Apparently Gabby's refuses to deliver to my house as they are currently at odds with my housemate after mixing up an order and causing problems with her allergies. Extremely frustrated that I was jerked around and not told any truths by a restaurant because they are having a childish feud with my housemate. read more

Just don't eat here. Wings are pretty sad, honestly they just look sad sitting in that basket. I'm no vegan but I felt bad that chickens had to be slaughtered in order for me to eat last night. You are in the Junction, eat elsewhere come here for the beer and Raptors afterwards. read more

PLEASE READ BEFORE EATING HERE!! I visited the Junction Gabby's location a few weeks ago and was horrified at the way the manager was treating his staff. Our waitress made an error by forgetting to add "no tomatoes" to my hamburger. I am allergic to tomatoes. She was apologetic and brought it back to the kitchen. I could hear her manager yelling at her for being 'stupid and careless'. I wasn't even mad at her because mistakes happen. Our waitress never came back to our table and instead the manager brought me a "brand new hamburger"... except it was the exact same one... there were tomato seeds on the burger. Not impressed by the unprofessional manager or the lack of consideration towards my allergies. WILL NOT BE BACK! read more

My boyfriend and I were assaulted at this Gabbys by 3 people who shouldn't have been served, but the manager ..Tuschi tends to serve people anyway even after the bartenders cut them off. He assured us the 3 people would be banned from the restaurant so when we returned, 2 of the 3 people were sitting on the patio drinking beer and smirking at us, so we called the cops (who were absolutely friggin useless) and they asked Tuschi to see the tape. He said he didn't have it, so after I thanked the cops for nothing I had to walk by Gabbys and saw a bunch of the staff watching the video. When I asked Tuschi why he lied his response was "Of course Im not gonna show them that! I don't want to get in trouble and lose customers!! So call the cops again if you want, do whatever you want cause I really don't care!" So your wish is my command you little prick!!!!!!! read more

The food was decent I thought for a pub like kind of food. The food I got was the fajitas, which was decent. Only thing I didn't like was the service. Poor service. It was almost like they were non existent. Waited more then 10 minutes for the bill and had to ask twice for it. Not only that, the waiter never checked up on us. Really disappointed. I'm never going to this place again. read more

I prefer this place to any hipster joint down the road. The place is not too noisy, especially when compared to those next door. Service is prompt, friendly, and positive. They serve standard bar food and more (fish tacos!), but, that being said, the foot is not overpriced, and the portions are not microscopic. The seating is comfortable, and the overall vibe is pleasant and unimposing. Their selection of beers is standard, but lately they've started adding local brews to the menu. Overall, this is a great place to relax and have a conversation over a pint of beer. read more

Great food. Terrible service and they mucked up our order and gave us 3 incorrect bills. Probably because it's a holiday. Usually good food and good service. Maybe next time Gabby's. If there is a next time... read more

this used to be a favourite place or ours. we moved away 3 years ago but went back today to visit. We stopped for lunch with our son. We ordered our food and waited a long time for it. When our food was served my son was given chicken fingers from the regular menu at twice the price as the kids menu. And they were overcooked. My steak sandwich was overdone shoe leather, I couldn't even cut the bread with a steak knife, the onions and mushrooms were burnt. The burger was also burned. We could not eat this and left disappointed. read more

If I could give this place a zero out of 5, I would but there is no option for that. The management was never, ever around and when they were I saw the manager yell at one of their employees behind the bar. He clearly was not listening to what the worker had to say, as a former bartender/server - I knew what was being said and she made sense. He was bullying her, trying to cheat her out of her tips or make her pay for something that clearly wasn't her fault. The food was cheap tasting, looking and all around poor and absolutely nothing was good about this place. They should be appalled and shut down. The management was AWFUL!!!! THEY SHOULD ALL BE FIRED. read more

I had their specials. Linguine Pasta with rosey sauce..awesome mannn...I would luv to have this again..:)

One of worst places to eat the steak I order was cold and I found a roach in the salad and when I asked them to replace my food they gave me a hard time and refused never again will I eat here read more
