Craft is a new restaurant on Hood Street, recently opened in the last few months by the same folks…read morethat brought us Gothenberg. It's actually located in the old Gothenberg spot on Hood Street. When you walk in, you notice the same sense of style and aethetics that make Gothenberg so pleasant and enjoyable. Craft specializes in pizzas, sliders and beer. Now, the sign out front does actually say that, but if you are looking for something OTHER than those things, then move on. The menu is somewhat limited in that respect. However, in terms of the variety and quality of the pizza and sliders, you won't be left wanting. I came here without the kiddos and with my husband and in-laws, who were visiting from the States. My husband was very happy with the beer selection (I was the driver none for me that night). Though the food is pizza and burgers, you definitely are getting the upper-end version of these items (not typical pub-type fare). The flavor palate is interesting and tasty (and if you ever had the sliders at Gothenburg, you'd have a sense of what is on offer at Craft). The servers were great and friendly. It's wasn't too busy, but it was a Wednesday night. They have some lounge type indoor seating, and some "social" types of seating (e.g. long, high top tables, a high-top counter along the wall) and may well get crowded on a busier night. They have also maintained some of the outdoor seating that was there from Gothenburg as well. All in all, I'll be back again on a future date night. They might be perfectly happy to have your children there, but I don't intend to find out :)

So happy with the meal and service we received tonight at Craft. The waiter was absolutely lovely…read moreand accommodating, even going the extra mile to fix the leg of our table as it was slightly off and wobbly. Steak was cooked amazing and couldn't get enough of the potatoes with cheese and sour cream. Left feeling very full and satisfied. Will definitely be back.

I have been to this location several times over the last 6 years. Both the service and the food are…read moreusually very good but recently we have noticed considerable deterioration in the service that the staff provide. It is unclear to me what is going on here, since the location is not under new management. When we last went to JG, the food took over 45 minutes to get to the table despite that it wasn't busy. We also noticed one jr member of the cooking staff handle cooked bacon and other food items with his bare hands after handling raw foods. We alerted the staff to this as it is unsanitary. Second the shift manager took a 15min smoke break even as some customers berated other staff. While I understand the need for a break on shift, I think it is incumbent upon the manager to step up and lead the staff during what was a very difficult time. When I return to this location, I will update my negative review if the situation has improved.

Love this burger restaurant chain! I highly recommend trying this at least once if you are…read moretravelling in the area. Especially if you are looking for a more affordable meal. One burger is a lot of food. We shared a small side of fries and we were stuffed! The first time we ordered beef burgers only to learn they were serving a limited edition chicken burger, Nacho Libre, that sounded amazing. So, this time we were able to order their special! This burger was a delicious breast of chicken with avocado, lettuce, corn, and get this: tortilla chips with nacho cheese and salsa. Sounds crazy but it worked!! It was delicious!! The service was fast a friendly and there was plenty of room to eat inside if it's too cold to eat outside. It seemed like most of the locals take their food from here to go anyway so you will have no trouble finding a table. Enjoy!!

They serve (and are owned by) Good George beer, which is a local Hamilton brewery. There is ample amount of seating available at ground level, upstairs, and even some outside. There's an adjacent gaming room, if you're into that sort of thing. The bartenders and cooks go above-and-beyond to ensure you're having a good time and that you're satisfied with the food and drink. The place has a great vibe, so go and check it out!
