3.5/5, +.5 for service…read more I stopped by here with a couple friends after checking out a block party in the area. Despite living downtown I had shockingly never come here until recently. It's a typical dive bar that's welcoming to all, as shown by some of the decorations inside. Even the washrooms scream social activism, which is kinda cool to be honest. I had the yellow dog platter without the jalapenos (not a jalapenos person inside hot dogs). It came with a soup of the day, which was a beef barley soup. The soup was amazingly good. The hot dog was also quite good. I do agree with Jennyfer A.'s comment in that the sauce was lacking, so I did drop a star there. Portion wise it was perfect for someone who was 75% hungry. Service was excellent here. Will definitely return whenever I'm in downtown and am looking for food nearby!

I was passing through town and made a stop to help at one of the Habitat Builds…read more After the build I wandered around town and literally chose this place due to the name and all the shite I was avoiding in the states by taking a travel across Canada. The place is a bit higher than a 3 but without 1/4 stars Yelp makes it hard to give more accurate reviews. For dinner ? The Donair ! I haven't had one in years and was super excited about finding it on the menu. It did not disappoint! Nothing beats a good Donair . I would say fresh cut fries should be added to the menu . They make meals that much better. Also one thing I like about dinning in Canada is that so many places have fresh cut fries. All in all a good experience. Lovely staff. Good food. Good beer.

If you're coming here simply for the atmosphere and maybe to have a drink after an event downtown, you'll probably have a good time here. My most recent visit was for wing night on a Wednesday. I have to say, their wings are pretty average. The wing sizes are about the same as Smitty's, which aren't very big. The taste was fine though. Service can be hit and miss, as you can imagine in a busy place like this. It's still a good place for drinks and any events. Don't expect much in terms of their food though.

Elephant and Castle is a British-inspired Canadian pub located in downtown. It's often busy,…read moreespecially if there are events happening in the arena. I've been here twice now and have been generally satisfied with the food here. Their chicken tenders are known to be one of the best in the city, and that was what I had in my most recent visit. In a city where the market for chicken tenders is competitive, they do a great job here. I actually find their honey dill sauce to be what carries this dish, it's the best I've had in the entire city. Service isn't too much to write home about, but I was content as long as the food was good, in which case it was here. It's a good pre or post-event pub food if you don't wanna spend arena money.

We had been hearing about it on Facebook and decided to stop in. This establishment was previously vacant after several failed restaurants closed up shop. The place has been nicely renovated and we love the long bar you can sit at when you walk into the long, narrow space. There's a lot of table seating in the back area if a bar top isn't your style. While we took a look at the menu and only tried one appetizer, our review is mainly for drinks, the atmosphere and service. The drink menu is extensive and they have a really good selection of wines and cocktails. We would definitely recommend dropping in after work or for a late night drink. No street parking out front, but the location is very accessible. The bus stops right outside which is great if you're looking to have a few drinks and not have to worry about driving. We had a great experience here and will definitely be back. The owner told us that next week is 'Burger Week' and that once that wraps up, there will be a more extensive food menu.
