    New bartenders, new problems. These new ones are saying they're closing soon at 11:30PM And i'm left feeling guilty. Don't like it. I feel like i'm getting kicked out. I don't work a traditional schedule. I'm a registered nurse and don't have a block schedule. So help me let them know that i'm not out here everyday.

    We went here after the 2024 Shamrockin' in Ghent. The service was great, I will start by saying that. The food was "okay." I ordered the nachos (see pic- not anything great at all... literally the most MEH nachos I've ever had) and a pretzel with cheese (yummy!). The pretzel was borderline room temp, so that wasn't the best- it had either been sitting for a while or wasn't heated up enough. My friends drank, but were charged top shelf for everything, including shots. I hate when places do this- I always appreciate the asking of what. Who automatically gives top shelf? Boo. I'll be back, but I'll be hesitant in what I order, both food & drinks. Also, it always seems to be a sausage fest in there, so if that's your cup of tea, drink up! :)

    The food was good. We had an order of fish and chips, popcorn shrimp and tuna bites. Fish and chips was a big portion size. Our server was nice. We were visiting from out of town and prices were reasonable. There is an outdoor patio to eat along with indoor seating. There is a pool table inside and great music was playing. We went around 7pm and there was plenty of parking.

    A dollar off if you bring a church bulletin. Interesting.

    Pretty nice LGBTQ+ local bar. Mj's seems like a cool place where locals hang out to get their night going. The vibe of the bar is pretty welcoming, and probably is a nice place to meet new people if you are new to the area. While folks seem to already know each other, I did feel too much of a cliquey vibe. Overall, our service was pretty good because Courtney, our waitress, constantly checked in on us. This was great because I was in great need of multiple gin-based cocktails. Looking forward to visiting again.

    MJ's is THE place to be if you're part of the LGBTQ community. They have all kinds of events that support the community, and it's kind of a home away from home for many of us. They have a rotating series of events happening nightly -- karaoke nights, drag bingo, trivia nights, etc. -- so there's a little of something for everyone. There's a main dining area that includes the bar and pool tables, a covered patio that is great if the weather is nice, and a back-back of the house room that is where a lot of the really fun stuff happens. :) As others have mentioned - lots of parking, which is nice for a Granby Street location. Drinks aren't super pricey, and there's a whole menu of pub/bar food. As far as my food experiences go, I'd put them at a solid 3. It's bar food - so you get what you get. Maybe I'm ordering the wrong things, but I haven't been super impressed on that front. Overall, this is a great place to grab a drink with a few friends and hang out in a very chill atmosphere.

    Just went for lunch. Ordered a hamburger and brisket sandwich. Both had no taste. The Cole slaw and sweet potato fries were good.

What really stood out was the personalized experience. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcomed and well taken care of throughout the meal. The bar also deserves a special mention--the creative and thoughtfully crafted drink selections added a fun and memorable touch to the evening. The grilled shrimp was absolutely amazing--perfectly prepared and full of flavor. The menu offers a wonderful variety of French cuisine, with something to appeal to different tastes, and everything we tried was beautifully presented and delicious. Overall, this is a restaurant where the ambiance, food, drinks, and hospitality come together beautifully. It's the kind of place that makes you want to linger a little longer and definitely return for another experience. Highly recommended!

It's way bigger than it looks from the outside! The space is also decorated really cute, which I appreciated. Our server was kind and helpful with suggestions, and I love a good recommendation, so shoutout to her even though I didn't catch her name. I ordered the French onion soup, mussels, and a watermelon vodka spritzer. The drink was unfortunately way too sweet for me. They definitely could've dialed back the watermelon or the sweetness in general. It was giving watermelon candy more than refreshing cocktail. The mussels were probably the biggest disappointment. The broth didn't have much flavor at all, so the mussels basically just tasted like...mussels. Just mussels out here on their own with no support system. I definitely wouldn't order those again. The French onion soup, however, was really good! It was a little different from the French onion soups I'm used to, although I can't quite put my finger on why. It was flavorful, and the piece of toast inside was perfectly toasted and somehow still had a nice crunch to it. That soup came through and saved the meal. I would absolutely order it again. Overall, it was an okay experience. Cute space, great service, and a really good French onion soup, but the mussels and overly sweet cocktail were misses for me. I'd come back and try something else

Whether it's with friends or just the two of us, we've never been disappointed. Let's see how this visit went. We were immediately seated once we walked inside. It wasn't completely packed for a Saturday afternoon but staff was really busy with customers. The vibe was one that made us comfortable for the most part. After a few minutes of looking over the menu, we were ready to order. My selection was the Tavern Monte Cristo which consisted of chargrilled chicken and ham as the protein with Gouda cheese and cider aioli fried in a tempura batter with tavern fries. The meal was served hot and ready and tasted great. And having the cranberry coulis as a dipping sauce really added some taste. My only gripe with the sandwich was the amount of protein. I'm not sure if I ate most of it when we dined in, but when I ate the rest for dinner, it was more breading than anything else. Still good but they could've included more. Nonetheless, I was full. Good stuff as always from Park Lane Tavern :)
