And indeed. Delicious, unique beautiful creations in every glass. I also left having enhanced my liquor IQ despite killing a few brain cells :-). What took me pleasantly by surprise was the food. Holly Crap it was incredible. I had a burger that tasted as if it was homemade. Such fresh ingredients, all prepared with level of skill I would expect in a fine dining establishment. Really recommend TTL for lunch/dinner or a catered event.

They had a number of riffs on a "Olde Fashioned" which a couple of our party tried and enjoyed. Any place that has Peroni on tap and real 20 oz pints is good in my books! Our service was quite fast and attentive, and the pizzas, were great and plentiful for sure. Come hungry, or be prepared to take some home. We'd most certainly return!!

We visited The Granary on Mother's Day (Sunday, May 8th) and we were super excited to try this…read moreplace as the menu items looked great! There were 5 adults in our party. We made a reservation a few weeks ago and when we arrived we got seated right away. Our server was really friendly and polite. She provided wonderful service during our visit. Our issues definitely weren't with their service, but it was their food. We started our order with 2 cinnamon buns, and they were really good! They're a heavier dough, but they were delicious and a must try when you go there. For our entrees, we had 2 Classic Eggs Benedict, Huevos Rancheros Benedict, Harvest Omelette and a Harvest Skillet. Our meals came out within 10-15 mins of ordering. The one thing we could all say is that the flavors of our meals were great. Very flavorful, seasoned well, and good sized portions. The problem was in the temperature for all of our meals. At first, all three of us that had eggs benny, our eggs were cold. Not luke warm, cold. We told our server, they refired 3 new plates, and when the new dishes came out it was the same thing. At that point, a couple of us changed our dishes to the Coffee Garden waffle and the biscuits and bacon. The 3rd person wanted to try the eggs benny again. The Manager came out and let us know that the hollandaise sauce is made from scratch, which is great to hear! That doesn't happen often. When the waffles came out, they were crispy, tasted great, but again, they were cold. I ate them because at that point, I realized it wasn't going to get any better. Our guest that had the biscuits and gravy enjoyed them, but the bacon wasn't hot either. The 3rd time for the classic eggs benny, the hollandaise was brought out on the side and the egg was hot, but the sauce was ice cold. Not kind of warm, but refrigerated cold. "Real" hollandaise won't be piping hot, but it shouldn't be cold either. After chatting during our meals, the other 2 guests with the omelette and the skillet, their meals were just luke warm as well, they weren't hot. So while the flavors were all good, the food temperatures of our breakfast was not good which was offputting. For this reason, we definitely won't be back.

I'd give it somewhere between 3 and 4 stars, it has pros and cons but overall a great choice within the options Sylvan Lake offers. Pros: - great location - MASSIVELY HUGE rooftop patio, would seat enormous numbers of people - super fun cocktails; I had one with cotton candy in it! Delicious cocktail and fun snack too! - the shrimp tacos were tasty and the shrimp was cooked perfectly, which can be challenging Cons: - the rest of the food we tried was pretty average. Not bad, but not amazing either. The "steak tartare" was just steak. The spring rolls were take-out-Chinese-food quality, again not bad, just nothing extra. And they also brought us the veggie spring rolls by mistake, not the pork ones we ordered, and made no apology when this was pointed out. - for some reason they seem very keen on constantly playing Latin American music, despite the fact that neither their menu nor their staff appear to be particularly Latin American - prices are tourist level ... but that's probably true for everywhere in this town I had fun with my ridiculous cocktail and would return another time for some of the other cocktails, but keep my expectations of the food to not be too too high.

The Nachos were super disappointing as well. Nachos were $23 , plus $5 for chicken. Chips seamed almost stale, definitely not $5 worth of chicken. Cheese was not melted throughout. It pretty much was a heap of chips. Won't be going back. Not worth the cost. Service was not great either.

Our latest experience will have been our last, and I'm actually hoping that someone from there will read this. I realize going to a bar for brunch is rarely going to be stellar so our expectations were measured but even so, the Benedict's were extremely bland an flavourless. We did mention this to our server but asked for some condiments that made do. However, that's not what prompted this review. It started with the curdled cream in our coffee but of course that can be forgiven as it happens for sure. The issue was how it was handled. Started with a look at the coffee and a "wow, you're not having much luck today" as a response from our waitress... followed by... nothing!! No removal of the coffee, no replacement of the coffee, no acknowledgement or removal of the coffee from the bill! Now our server was friendly enough and I don't put this all on her - this is poor management and subpar training. A simple bit of education could have turned our experience around easily and avoided our comment. Get it together and help your staff!! We saw you in there doing basically nothing - brutal. You hear the industry complain about all the external factors that are hurting the industry but sometimes you have to look within.

We really quite like the covered patio, as it's basically like sitting inside but so nicely decorated. Parking is around and about in this area if you don't find something right out front, but not too bad of a walk. Our friend always orders the #28 dragon bowl and every time only has good things to say about it. It does have amazing color and looks delightful. This time we tried the Chefs corner items which we were all very happy about. The French Dip was a huge portion, very filling. And nice sides choices like salad, fries, or even poutine. The bread was crispy and tender! We also go the chefs corner Crispy Chicken Ramen. Beautiful! The chicken had a little spice on it but if you aren't into spice they could omit that. Broth was nice and not too spicy even for the little kids. Speaking of kids, nice big bathrooms and a change table! Plus high chairs available too. The server was super great when our son wanted to order a burger and fries even though it 'isn't on their menu' still put a kids one together and even cut it and plated it for my two boys. It was quite big so glad they shared it!
