When I first arrived at Four Points by Sheraton in Etobicoke, the signage that you see first is…read moreFionn, followed by Welcome. The latter is the hotel entrance. Fionn intrigued me. I don't think that I had ever dined at a Fionn McCool in my life before this visit. Yes, I lead a sheltered life. After spending a day getting my CPR certification at work (I passed with flying colours and I miss my mannequin... haha!), I needed dinner. I decided to head back to the hotel and give Fionn McCool's a try. I hauled my stuff back to my room and simply headed over to this restaurant with my purse. I was immediately greeted at the host area. The woman seated me in a quaint corner. The padded bench seats were high, even for someone like me who is fairly tall. I was comfy. My server came over roughly seven minutes later. I didn't mind. It was enough time for me to review the beverages and food menus. I wanted wings. I ordered 1.5 pounds of wings in the buff (that is, they don't have any flour coating on the wings). I went with salt and pepper. The wings come with veggies. I chose ranch dip. I also ordered a Diet Pepsi. The raspberry blood orange cosmo intrigued me. I went for it. It came out first. It was delicious. The fruit flavours worked well together. There were crushed raspberries at the bottom of my glass. I didn't waste anything. I highly recommend this drink. My wings came next. Another server brought them out and indicated that I be careful. They were hot out of the fryer. I got two drumsticks out of the batch of wings. They were yummy! I was so happy. I liked dipping my celery and carrot sticks into the ranch dressing. Wings are in the appetizer section of the menu. It can completely serve as dinner. I felt like dessert. I asked my server for a dessert menu. She seemed so happy that I wanted more. I ordered the brownies and vanilla ice cream. I was so happy when my dessert came to my table. The presentation was cheerful and nice. I dug in. The brownies were moist, fudgy, and scrumptious. Vanilla ice cream balanced out and complemented the brownies nicely. My server came over and asked what I thought. I was in heaven eating everything. This eatery surprised me. I sat there and realized that there was live music. An older man was playing his guitar and singing during my entire time there. He played a bunch of classic rock songs. He had a great voice. I appreciated his talent and I dined, clapping after each of his songs without flinging my wings across the restaurant. I didn't realize that Fionn McCool's accepts Scene points. It's known as the Pubs on the app. I managed to get 20x the points my loading an offer on my app. Nice! My server was friendly and helpful. She got my bill and asked whether I wanted to charge my meal to my room. I paid with a credit card instead. Easy peasy. There is plenty of parking in front of the restaurant. Many folks drop by to watch the game (Leafs were playing when I was here), have a drink or meal, and leave. I had a great experience. The manager came over to ask how I was. He also said goodbye to me when I left. I haven't seen that in a while. I hope to eat here more often. (449)

One of my companions said the chicken pot pie was dry, but my mini Yorkies were excellent, as was the sticky toffee pudding that all three of us ordered - no sharing for us! It was too good. Breakfast standards - eggs and toast, French toast and eggs Benedict- all served with home fries were great, with the exception of the bacon - which wasn't as crisp as requested. Atmosphere was of a neighborhood Irish pub - they pulled it off, considering this was a hotel bar.

I dropped into this local watering hole on a Friday around noon and it was very quiet. There was…read moreactually one patron at the bar when I arrived and one more when I left. Two fellows occupied another table. Hmmm, where is everybody? Despite being an Irish Pub, the owners appeared to be Indian. All the staff that I saw were Indian, including the lone server/bartender. Now, that's not a bad thing because I love Indian food. I was actually quite happy! I just never expected it to be disguised as an Irish pub. I chose the Butter Chicken (Authentic creamy butter chicken sauce served with rice and naan bread). It was actually quite good but not quite up to the standard of an authentic Indian restaurant. It seemed to be lacking some of the creaminess that I've become used to in butter chicken. So this was very good, but perhaps not as authentic as I was hoping for. The rest of the place looked like what I would expect from an Irish pub. The (faux) worn furniture, the dart boards, the pool table. the fireplace, a good variety of beer on tap. Hopefully the evening crowd is better. There is one thing that I found to be a turnoff - the strong smell of air freshener or some kind of cleaning agent. Tone this down for a better, more natural experience. Please.

Problem is, the regular patrons, that smoke, now smoke and vape on the patio. Servers do nothing. Pathetic. The smokers never followed the 9 meter rule, always a cloud of smoke at the entrance, next to a daycare. Now they take over the patio. So there are so more patios that are not ruled by the clients. Too bad, nice patio, and great food, but I'll leave it to the inmates. Mackenzie's, magwyers, portly, st. Louis, even Boston pizza respect your air.

Scruffy Murphy's is exactly what you want from a neighborhood Irish pub in Etobicoke: warm,…read moreunpretentious, and reliably good most of the time. Walk in and you're hit with that classic pub smell--wood, beer, and something frying--and it instantly feels comforting. The dark interior, Guinness mirrors, and Celtic knick-knacks give it genuine character without feeling like a theme-park knockoff. The patio out back is a nice bonus when the weather cooperates, and the live music on weekends is usually a talented one-man-band or duo who know how to work the room. Food-wise, it's mostly a home run. The wings are massive and come in a honey-garlic that's legitimately addictive, the fish & chips batter is crisp and greaseless, and the shepherd's pie is proper comfort food--hearty, well-seasoned, and served scorching hot. The Irish nachos (potato slices instead of tortilla chips) are a fun twist and disappear fast. Prices are very fair for the portion sizes; you'll leave full without feeling robbed. Service is friendly 9 times out of 10. The staff are the type who remember your name after two visits and pour a perfect pint, but on busy nights (Friday/Saturday after 9 pm) it can get stretched thin. Small gripes aside, Scruffy's is still one of the best pure pubs in Etobicoke. Great spot for a casual pint, catching the game, or a no-fuss plate of elevated pub grub.

They share the same kitchen (and perhaps owner too). When we got there around lunch time, Nevizade was still closed but the staff said that we could order from both menus. The interior is typical of that of an Irish pub, with Irish-themed decorations, big TV screens (playing football at that time), full bar section, a small stage (for live music / performances at night), and traditional Irish music playing in the background. The interior was quite spacious with plenty of tables and seatings available (both at the bar and dining area). We were there just a few days after Halloween, so they still had Halloween decorations up (spider webs, skeletons, etc.). I liked the festive Halloween feel. The menu was pretty good - salads, miso salmon bowl, and the typical bar fare (such as burgers and fish & chips). Food was decent (I had the Arugula Salad), and service was nice and friendly.

Server was nice but not very attentive. Menu wasn't bad and food was ok but hard to tell what to get as the options didn't really seem to go together.

They did have mocktails, so that's a plus. Overall I just felt that the spot was pretty dark and dreary and...sticky. I wouldn't seek this spot out unless I was really in the nearby area. We traveled about 30 min and I don't know that that was worth it.
