Wonton nachos were fantastic. Had the beef ones, only thing that could be different is maybe use a taco seasoning and ground the beef, otherwise they were amazing!! Huge portion!

The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, was because the wonton nachos were stuck, and I mean stuck to the paper so I kept getting bits of paper in my mouth. BUT the food and service was otherwise fantastic and I will definitely be back. Ill just get them to hold the paper...lol

Went with a group on our sxs, service was by far the best, food was amazing. I personally had the Buffalo chicken poutine which was delicious. Thanks for the great hospitality. We will be back!

Great pub fare. Menu is large enough and array of options - anyone could eat here. Service was quick and friendly, provided great recommendations. We had the peanut butter bacon smash burger and the Buffalo chicken sandwich made in a wrap. The tomato soup is a large serving for a side but tasted fresh and homemade. The outdoor seating is great in the summertime to enjoy a drink and a meal! I will be back!

  • Steak Fritz: This 8oz petite beef tenderloin is cooked to perfection, paired beautifully with garlic parmesan fries and seasonal vegetables, all topped with a luscious peppercorn sauce. Priced at $32.95, it delivers a satisfying depth of flavor.

Adding to the experience are the salads and soups that shine on the menu. The Mexican Street Corn Salad is a zingy explosion of flavors while the Bacon Caesar Salad is a classic; both are excellent ways to begin your meal.
