    Nice vibe overall! I like the interior of this place and the food is delicious too. Service was on point and it is good for office lunches and after office hangouts!

    Three pizzas for happy hour!

    Happy hour specials 2pm to 5pm -$10 pizza and $12 drinks (espresso martini and margarita). Server was really nice. If you go during peak time, I wouldn't expect exceptional service as it is packed with business folk from 5 to 7pm, however if you go for happy hour, do expect great service. The basement has a pool table and an area you can rent out for events which includes shuffleboard. Overall I enjoyed our quiet table tucked away in the corner as I imagine it would have been quite loud to have a table in the center of the restaurant. There was also a dj playing the day I went in. I recommend the Soprasoto pizza and the mushroom pizza which were both stellar choices especially for the happy hour price.

    Great place to go to after the Raptors Game. Cheap eats and drinks during happy hour. The bartenders were so fun and nice! Loved the vibes!

    Was walking around and stumbled upon their happy hour. Arrived just in time to order a pizza and cocktail for $10 each. The pizza was a full size personal pizza. I couldn't finish it all so definitely can share with 2 people. The classic margarita was pretty good as well. I sat at the first bar to the right bc I didn't realize how big this restaurant is. The ambiance was fun as there were so many people enjoying happy hour and the bartenders were chatting it up with the people. Definitely recommend the happy hour if able to stop by during that time (forgot the actual happy hour time sorry!).

    Corporate event held in this restaurant. Food is average. Service is good. Not much surprise. Some pizza has almost nothing but just pizza source. Deep fry chicken taste the best among all. Mac and cheese is ok. Washroom is clean Interesting section under same owner with hair cutting.

    Taps a plenty

    Such a great music vibe in this place. Loads of beers on tap and great cocktails too. Had the fish and chips, pretty average, so that's the one star ding. This place was poppin on a Wednesday.

    Nice diner at this pub / sports bar(?) at King and Bay. Friendly service, tables maybe a bit to close together during Covid, but they weren't all full. We had the tuna bowl and the burger with fries. The tuna bowl was great, would have been improved if the rice was warm. The burger was also great, regular fries were good.

    Rona, Jacob, Gord and I had supper this evening before the Toronto Rock game at the Walrus Pub & Beer Hall. The four of us ordered the Golden Chicken Sandwich. Gord, Jacob and I got ours with fries and Rona got hers with a salad. I ordered my sandwich without lettuce. I thought it was a good sandwich. The panko added a bit of heat so I didn't need to dip in the side of hot sauce. The chicken was moist and tender. The bun was soft, which I like, but still managed to hold the chicken well. The fries were good, though I found the sandwich filling enough so didn't have many fries. I'd get this again.

    Great time. Pizza was surprisingly delicious. Game area in the lower level bar area with ping pong. Drinks are good. Good happy hour deals. Service was very friendly, helpful, and quick!

    Updating my review thanks to a stellar repeat visit to Walrus. Walrus contacted me and invited me back because of the less than perfect (although far from imperfect) time previously. I don't usually take up offers when people invite me back, but the same friends happened to be coming in from Pickering, so I figured we could all meet there again. Well, this time was amazing. Our server, Raven, was fantastic - helpful, informative, engaged. We tried two menu items, the mushroom pizza and the crispy cauliflower, and they were both really, really good. The crust on the pizza was really interesting - it had sesame seeds! - and I would order both these items again. The drink selection was pretty solid as well, and I wasn't drinking this night, so Raven recommended an apple rhubarb soda and it was FANTASTIC! What I liked was that I just casually told her I wasn't drinking, and she went through a bunch of options I could have, so she was really good at selling and knowing what items weren't on the menu that I might be interested in. Tables are nicely spaced apart so you don't feel crowded, and it wasn't too loud a space so you could actually talk to each other. Hostesses seem happy and friendly (I compare this to other beer halls like Craft, where the hostesses are clearly unhappy). I'm glad I was invited back, because I'm definitely adding Walrus to my rotation list especially for visitors meeting us from the Go Train, or meeting up after work as it's right in the heart of the business district.

    This place is geared towards one the bay street crowd as it gets slammed in the after work hours during the week. However I wanted to give it a try giving its in the neighborhood somewhat. First visit was for drinks alone though their patio did catch my eye so decided to give it a visit for food/patio on the weekend. Surprisingly the place wasn't that busy. The patio is done well here and the seating inside is humongous. I think this seems to be the trend as most of the newer pubs that I have seen open up are similar sized. Now for the bad part maybe its just me I didn't like the beer selection here to the extent on the first visit I ended up just ordering a cocktail! Ah well they do have a rotating craft selection so might work for you. All of us ended up ordering the burger and added the cauliflower app for good measure. The app was decent for what it is (mild flavors and something to munch on while not feeling guilty. The burger is served on a wooden board not a fan of these BTW. The fries are good. Burgers is OK though I wasn't expecting to be wowed. The service was good throughout. 3.5 Stars with a potential for a 4 star pub if the offer more Belgian beers for moi.

    A friend brought us here for a drink and quick bites before a Blue Jays game. Place was pretty crowded for a Tuesday afternoon. We sat at the bar, and the service was very friendly and attentive. We ordered the crisp cauliflower and avocado on toast. Crisp cauliflower was awesome. If I was hungrier I would've ordered it again. Avocado on toast was tasty, but it's not really my favorite dish to begin with...my friends loved it though. Lots of beers on tap, and a handful of ciders (my preference).

    A classic Punk / Rock n Roll Bar in Toronto CA. Basically the CBGB's of that scene…read more It's been around since the early 1990's and is exactly what a spot like this should be. Very nondescript outside facade - no sign telling you what it is other than a small "BSC" (for Bovine Sex Club) painted near the door. Hard to miss though as the exterior is made up a punk rock style sculpture of rusted bikes & other assorted ephemera. The interior is similar, visually. Great sound system & chill vibes pervade throughout. Weirdly the stage is right in the entrance of the club, on your left, with a long bar along the right side, heading back. Great, crowd, great location in cool area with lots of restaurants & plenty of parking - both on the street up to 2 hours & extended parking for a flat-rate of CA$20 (~$14 USD) from 6:00pm until the next morning, just 2 blacks away.

    The Bovine is a fantastic place that is the same today as it was decades ago. not only that, but it…read moreis also one of the cheapest pints that you can find. Now, are the taps dry? Maybe. Are the beer cans running out? It's possible. But, it's a dive in the way of the old dives. And the acoustics for bands are... not great. But they are a sign of what once was. Without attempting to try to present a front of a time long gone, The Bovine simply exists today as it once did in that time long ago, before Smokes stickers, before iPhones, back when people would just go to a bar to talk with those they didn't know the morning prior. Bring cash though, unless you're looking to make some big orders, because credit card is a minimum fifty-dollar spend.

This was first on our list, located in the Scotiabank Tower on Adelaide. We got a nice corner table, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting, not too loud but not library-like either. The music, mostly UK fare like their cuisine, played an acceptable volume that my friends and I didn't have to raise our voices. We were seated very promptly, and our server took care to attend to my friend's allergy. She even asked to change my friend's cutlery when another server brought the wrong salad. My appetizer was a hot-smoked salmon pâté, which was ok by itself, but eaten with the pickles gave it that taste I wouldn't forget. I chose for my main the Petit Roast Dinner; the cut was excellent, full of flavour and juicy to boot. The gravy for said cut just brought the roast to another level. The sides were delicious as well, especially the crispiness of the potatoes. A clean plate was the end result! Finally to finish the meal, I chose the chocolate banoffee cheesecake - I never pass on any cheesecake when it's offered. And it didn't disappoint! The banana brûlée was an interesting touch, while having toffee sauce drizzled on the cheesecake was a first (and not definitely last) for me! All in all, it was a nice introduction to The Rabbit Hole, and I can't wait to go down there again!
