There are so many options but we settled with fish and chips, wings and wrap and salad. I really liked the fish and chips. The fish had a great batter - not too heavy., and the fish was very meaty. I didn't care for the fries, wish they were cut fresh. Wings were good, with a light breading. Everything was as expected, didn't blow me away but wasn't disappointed.

Clean interior with intimate lighting, attractive seating, and a nicely stocked long bar. Lots of TVs. Very nice. We were greeted by the lone server/bartender who brought us menus and told us all the specials of the day. I decided on the burger special - 8oz prime rib burger with cheese, bacon, and fries for only $10.00! The burger arrived open-faced, dressed with lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle. It looked good. It tasted really good! The burger patty was big and juicy, topped with two strips of bacon. It tasted pretty good! The fries were really good, with every one being nice and crispy. Great fries! For a completely random, unplanned visit, this was a very pleasant experience. The food was delicious, the ambiance was very nice, and the service was outstanding! Kudos to our server, Shirly(?). 4.5/5.0

The food is exquisite and I'm glad cause this way we don't need to head to Toronto to satisfy our cravings. From the porchetta to their bread pudding, you will not regret it. Things to try during their dinner menu: Roasted porchetta Braised short rib Braised lamb shank Roasted fingerling potatoes Bread pudding with ice cream I'm sure the rest is amazing but these are the highlights.

All I have to say is this place is terrible. I ate there last Saturday and the food was DISGUSTING…read more It was cold, not even remotely warm, cold as if it was placed in the fridge. The gravy was CONGEALED it was so cold. We waited over an hour to be served our food too. In our group some of us tried to return the food, because it was cold and the waitress simply replied, "why?" SERIOUSLY!!! Also, the waitress never refilled or even offered to refill our drinks. Trying to get the waitress's attention was impossible too. I should have asked to speak with the manager, because this is the worst dining experience I have ever had. My first hint that this place was bad should have been that it was empty during a Saturday at dinner time. STAY AWAY!!!! It is really a shame, because when this place was called Hanc's, it was amazing... the change in ownership has ruined this place!

Small craft brewery that is passionate with beers always fun to visit: to taste the beer, to talk to the brewers and of course to buy some beers! Manantler is located at the back and the basement of an industrial building. The entrance is hidden and small. But the brewery and taproom itself is well set up. The star though is their beers!!! Amazing beers both on taps and bottles. Wakatu-Me Nugget Lollihop Liquid Swords IPA Love their Single Hop Pale Ale with a lot of character. A lot of interesting beers, please check Facebook for what's available. Of course a beer tasting experience won't be complete without a knowledgeable beer geek behind the bar to talk beers with Trevor. Every beer here is a work of love and art: beer, awesome beer labels artwork and even their catchy names! I can't wait to try out more beers fro Manantler soon...

I was a bit disappointed that we had a Groupon for 4 beer flights but for some reason we were only allowed to have 3 tastes per flight. We watched others receive 4 beers per flights so I guess that is what you get when you buy Groupon to try out new breweries. The beers for some reason all tasted very similar. Makes me wonder if they do a kit brew or we just tasted at a bad time. I give 3 stars mostly because of the decor and the atmosphere this place has. Kid friendly, games and cool art. Good mix of music playing. I can see a lot of fun things this brewery can do.

On previous visits I have had the Chicken Parm sandwich, butter chicken and butter chicken poutine, curry chicken, chicken and waffles, perogies, and spinach dip.
