Fox & Firkin

Cozy, dark and traditional, the original pub in this homegrown chain caters to a younger crowd of office workers at lunch and neighbourhood regulars by night. An international menu features such pub grub favourites as nachos, wings, wraps and beer-battered fish and chips. Fourteen beers on tap, including the house Butler’s microbrew, satisfy the thirsty. Drop in for open-mike comedy on Monday night; Saturday night brings a rock ’n’ roll vibe with a live DJ. A leafy back patio provides summer respite from the noisy city. Mains $7.95–$17.45.
