One word of advice - do not go into a pub on St. Patty's day if you don't plan on getting wasted…read more Of course my friends and I, with clear intentions of remaining sober, decided to have brunch at Death and Taxes on St Patty's day and it was hilarious, loud and very fun. It was party, complete with ridiculous soundtrack. Irish music mixed with 90s throwbacks. I have been once before, also a Sunday afternoon, but it was very quiet! The food is surprisingly good. Reasonably priced. The basement bathrooms (single person / gender neutral) feature a piano. I mean, why not? Servers were very full of character, patient, and did their best! Vibe is very casual, perfect for a relaxed Sunday afternoon.

We should have gotten two because it's not really a Sharable.

I was wondering if I could get a good Sunday roast in Toronto, and the answer is yes…read more Obviously, I ordered the Sunday roast. The cut of beef was to die for. The seasoning around the edges were so incredibly delicious. I don't know what it was, but what a flavour burst. It was one of the best tasting pieces of beef I've had at a restaurant, no exaggeration. Perfectly cooked and tender as well. The sides were decent. And the Yorkshire pudding was very good. It is a cosy restaurant/pub. Truly feels like a proper British experience.

We came during switch over between breakfast to lunch, so our server hopefully got us some drinks while we waited for the kitchen to turn over. Typical beer and alcohol options but enough for you to find what you would like. For food, we got the fried green beans, the quesadilla, and the fish tacos. The food was surprisingly good and upscale compared to typical bar food. Due to its proximity to the nearby expo area, it does get crowded after game time or if there is a convention happening. Definitely worth a visit.

Liberty Village is a short walk away, so I hoofed it over there and wound up at LOCAL Public Eatery just in time for happy hour. I wound up grabbing a beer (which, despite what the menu said, cost full price but still less than 15 bucks) and an Old Fashioned ("Canadian Club Classic 12yr whisky, cane syrup, aromatic bitters, ​amarena cherry"). The cocktail was actually a lot better than I was expecting. Although maybe a touch too sweet, it's a solid version of a venerable drink. And the price was right, too. Service was leisurely but friendly, and the vibe was right on point. I'm sure I'll be back to try their food sooner rather than later.

Their patio has been extended to allow for more seating. There is a small spot / nook up a few stairs which is where I was seated this time around. It was so relaxing, cozy, and tables were spread out which was nice. They even have string lights in the trees above - totally a vibe! I ordered a BCW (buffalo chicken wrap) which is always my go-to with sweet potato fries. I've started ordering a cocktail out to start my evening / before my meal comes. I ordered the Raspberry Margarita which was amazing! My friend and I split the spin dip which you really can't go wrong with.

It reminded me of pubs in Scotland where reservations are highly recommended and service is a big part of the experience. Strange I'm Leading with that, as the food was terrific, but it was a standout, friendly, attentive with manager or owner maybe checking in as well. We overstayed our allotted 2 hours in the dining room but they were super nice about it and about 2.5 hours in let us know very politely that they needed it. We were done for a bit and just gabbing, not rushed. The special was Thanksgiving turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, fresh vegetables, a little cranberry and a great cheese cake. Bc the menu was so good we got Irish nachos which were amazing...over potato chips. Great drink selection with about 8-10 local crafts. This was our first family visit to our son who started U of T this. It was our Thanksgiving on the road. Unconventional but Blake House made it a terrific night. Thank you

The restaurants is very spacious and has lots of seating. Menu is extensive as well.

Great steak and an amazing garlic sauce!…read more I ordered the steak with fries and was really impressed with the steak. It was cooked to a perfect medium-rare -- nicely seared on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. The fries were also crispy and delicious. The real surprise for me, though, was the garlic sauce that came with them. It was so good that I decided to try it with my steak, and it paired incredibly well. Definitely one of the highlights of the meal! The mushrooms, unfortunately, were just okay. Considering how expensive they were, I didn't think they were worth the price and probably wouldn't order them again. Our waitress was friendly and pleasant, which we appreciated. However, she did forget to bring us water and takeout containers, so we had to remind her. It was a minor inconvenience, but it did take away a little from the overall experience. Overall, the steak, fries, and especially that garlic sauce made for a great meal. I'd definitely come back for the steak and fries!
