Price Description

An eclectic crowd lingers at this bi-level Cabbagetown pub. Locals shoot the breeze while pool sharks circle billiard tables in search of the perfect shot. Lager louts stay merry with eight brews on tap, including Buzz Bear and Cool Bear. The menu offers many variations on classic pub food, boasting nine different types of wings, 17 pizzas and seven pastas, including the house specialty, a gorgonzola number with grilled chicken and mushrooms. The popular side patio is home to a jumble of mismatched tables and a decidedly convivial atmosphere. Mains $7–$15.
