It's a typical dive bar that's welcoming to all, as shown by some of the decorations inside. Even the washrooms scream social activism, which is kinda cool to be honest. I had the yellow dog platter without the jalapenos (not a jalapenos person inside hot dogs). It came with a soup of the day, which was a beef barley soup. The soup was amazingly good. The hot dog was also quite good. I do agree with Jennyfer A.'s comment in that the sauce was lacking, so I did drop a star there. Portion wise it was perfect for someone who was 75% hungry. Service was excellent here. Will definitely return whenever I'm in downtown and am looking for food nearby!

Kind of a dark ambiance here, somewhat set up like for people going for a date night. I've been to this one and the Regent location, and this branch definitely felt more open concept. This place had the Spicy, Sticky Guinness-glazed Fried Chicken Sandwich for their special this year, so I tried that. Pretty good, although as you can see in the photo the bun was way bigger than the chicken pieces. It was definitely sticky, though spicy not so much. Didn't really feel a lot of the bacon jam, but I did like the chicken thighs they used in terms of its juiciness, which ultimately is what you come for during Fried Chicken Fest. Service was good and efficient, we were attended to the entire time. Not a place I'd frequently visit, but I think it's worth a return.

I was passing through town and made a stop to help at one of the Habitat Builds…read more After the build I wandered around town and literally chose this place due to the name and all the shite I was avoiding in the states by taking a travel across Canada. The place is a bit higher than a 3 but without 1/4 stars Yelp makes it hard to give more accurate reviews. For dinner ? The Donair ! I haven't had one in years and was super excited about finding it on the menu. It did not disappoint! Nothing beats a good Donair . I would say fresh cut fries should be added to the menu . They make meals that much better. Also one thing I like about dinning in Canada is that so many places have fresh cut fries. All in all a good experience. Lovely staff. Good food. Good beer.

My husband and I had the Friday night special that was the Mug, Spud and Steak. They cooked the steaks to perfection and were delicious! I had fries and corn as my sides, the fries were homemade and fantastic. My husband had the baked potato and corn. One thing we were disappointed by was that there were no fixings for the baked potato. We will for sure go back for that damn good steak for $14.99 despite the slow service. The only thing they need to work on is their servers but we were a large group and likely that was the issue. I should note that everyone that I talked with left very satisfied with their meals, and the plates I saw coming out all looked delicious. Price was reasonable and portions were perfect size.

It's all served up in our friendly Pub atmosphere where you can enjoy a cocktail on the patio (coming this spring), grab a pint and play a game of pool or catch the big game on one of our many HD flat screen TVs visible from every seat in the house.

I ordered the Irish Nachos and I didn't know it was going to show up in a extra big basket with so much food! So much cheesy, deliciously adorned with bacon bits and more potato chips. I love this appetizer for a group. My friend tried some kind of sandwich with a soup dip. Maybe a beef French onion kind of meal, I forgot to ask him the exact name. He liked it though. This place has 2 main pool tables and it was pretty cool to play pool with my friend. This place also has a lot of televisions and a lot of people were cheering different sports games and teams. The waitresses seem pretty nice. Honestly this place is definitely worth checking out.

Located on the main drag, this cozy pub serves as one of the popular locations to grab a few drinks with your mates or dine in for a quick lunch with co-workers, and dinner with your family with more drinks in the evening. In the summer months they open up a small area on the sidewalk for your outdoor dining enjoyment. Right when you walk in, you have the bartender mixing drinks and tending to the few occupied stools at the counter and those playing darts. The hostess will gladly seat you at one of the tables along the windows or booths along the far wall in their restaurant "section". I use " " because the restaurant portion for this pub, for all ages, forms an L-shaped seating plan. The 18+ section is separated by a short black iron fence in the middle that holds a few more tables and larger booths. Sawney Beans is like any other pub with their weekday Pub Grub specials. One of the favorites is Tuesday for Pub Poutinerie Night - How Canadian of them ;) Another favorite are the Irish Nachos (Waffle fries, loaded with tomatoes, jalapenos, green onions and cheese with the option of adding chicken or beef for an extra charge) It's a small kitchen so they have a lunch menu that changes at 5pm for dinner. The lunch menu is small and not really British authentic but when i'm craving their delicious Chicken Quesadillas, this is the time to get them. Their dinner menu features more British Pub eating with titles like: - Bangers and Mash - Roast Beef dinner with Yorkshire Puddings - Shepherd's Pie - London's Burning Burger (ok not authentic but still yummy with a little heat) For a sweet tooth my favorite is: - Sticky Toffee Pudding with vanilla ice cream Another interesting option would be their deep fried Mars bar The bar serves up a variety of British ales as well as some domestic bottles. There's a decent wine list and a variety of British mixed cocktails and ciders. My personal favorite - Cider and Blackcurrent (Floundry Cider with a shot of Blackcurrent cordial) Two glasses in and I'm walking home feeling warm and tingly from my head to my toes! Steinbach, once a dry town, has succumbed to the British invasion and given the residents and surrounding communities a great place to eat and wet their whistles.

The first time I went we were put in a booth that had higher wallsand I felt very claustrophobic. The second time I went I went with a group of 8 and felt like they could barely accommodate us. It was very tight. We barely fit. Go elsewhere if you are more than 4 people. The other thing is that the music can be pretty loud. But it is supposed to be a pub. So that can be expected. The food tastes good but with higher prices, I would rather go elsewhere where I don't feel like a sardine.
