So you are a Canadian, then. I’m from the UK, and this place is very poor quality compared to higher end British pubs. You put up no evidence for your observations, just insults! Try the bacon sandwich, with rind like leather; I was was told that it was impossible for the kitchen to remove it!!!

Some of you people leaving comments are so ill informed.
I’m a canadian guy with a british background, and I don’t like seeing
slags against the chef for one meal that someone didn’t like.
The troutling may have been rotten, but think to yourself, would a professional chef WANT to send a meal out that wasn’t up to par? Unless the guys a complete idiot, no chef would want to send a meal out of the kitchen thats sour, or as you say ‘rotten’.

Some diners are complete idiots and don’t know shit about the food they’re ordering.

Hi alison the fact that the chef is from england doesn’t mean that he can cook. i think are some good english chefs around but this CHEF IF WE CAN CALL HIM THAT IS NOT GOOD AT ALL. as far as fish and chips anyone can make them chippi’s make the best in town. i have heard many customers complain about the place. how much time they need to get organize they have had so many bad reviews and comments all over the kitchen that me as a business man i would of FIRED THE SO CALLED “CHEF” LONG TIME AGO. for drinks AMAZING!!!! BUT FOR FOOD THEY BETTER GET A NEW COOK OR A REAL CHEF that can make simple and eatable FOOD.

My mother and I headed down there twice in two days. Their upstairs outdoor patio is quaint and nice, the drinks are good. their wine selection is very nice also. We had the Fish and chips, and I must say it was amazing. Real English style fish, fresh cut fries and their homemade ketchup is to die for.

I highly recommend this place, they have only been open a few months, so give them some time to get organized. The chef is from England so I suggest you take it all in. It’s amazing!!! AMAZING!!!!!!

Stick to the drinks. I had the troutlings. These are common at authentic gastropubs.
One of them was rotten. I bit in and BAM.
Bitter, stinky… sent the other half back for inspection from the kitchen… and the staff (and manager) tried to tell me that it was because they’re an “acquired taste”, and that “chef” didn’t think anything was wrong.
They took it off the bill but kept insisting it was me.
I’m up sick all night.

Well I find the place beautiful and cozy great service but as many of the reviews I have read is unfortunate tha the food doesn’t go with the standards of the restaurant . I understand is a pub and all but for them to call them selves gastro pub food most be good and is not . I don’t understand how a place with so much potential have so many bad reviews about the food and nothing seems to change maybe the chef is the owner or maybe the owner doesn’t care what ever the situation is .is sad to see this happening as a restaurateur my advice is buy your chef out or change him before is to late read your reviews and especially the ones online those will be there for ever . people read those every time they google your restaurant . great place to go for drinks people I recommended (JUST DRINKS ).

The chopped burger I had there today was unlike any burger I’ve ever had…..It was, I have to say the best burger I’ve EVER had.
