On my first visit to Toronto, I wandered into Woody's on a Tuesday evening and met Hugh behind the…read morebar. From the moment we started talking, he made me feel less like a tourist and more like a regular. The kind of warmth that's rare and genuinely hard to fake. Our conversation flowed so naturally that I came back the following night just to continue it. Hugh is the sort of employee who turns a first visit into a lasting memory. I'll absolutely be back next time I'm in Toronto.

The staff are friendly and sexy. The guys on Sunday nights are like minded so it's easy to enjoy myself. From my experience, Sunday nights tend to be slightly older and fairly masculine. You don't see many guys using two hands to sip their cocktail through a straw. Most guys are gripping a beer. If there was a way for the dance floor to be a little bigger that would be great but they have done very well as one of the ONLY places to dance on Church Street. The DJ's are fun, especially DJ Dwayne! The pisser has little face sized windows to peer through as you drain and look out at guys walking to and from the dance floor....such a cool idea! The upstairs is a great place to cool off or heat up depending on the weather and what you are looking for. The patio/deck is nice and large with interesting sections to congregate. Summer Sundays offer a BBQ if you are patient and hungry. This place has a lot to offer to a lot of different types of people. I've never had a bad time there.

I expected them to get another bottle, when they didn't I expected an explanation for the short pour. Nope. I didn't bother to complain since this is my 3rd bad experience in a row and I won't be back again, ever. It isn't as though it was an oversight.

I had the burger and wedge fries with gravy to dip on the side for bunch/lunch. The meat was cooked nicely and the gravy and fries were nice. The next time stopped in I had the black pepper and lime fries as a snack; which were really good. The staff is really nice. They are friendly and engaging. They make a point to get your name and use it. Stop on by!

In fact when ordering a drink I felt like I was inconveniencing the bar staff with a gin and soda order. The bar tender was shorter, fit, very short shaved hair. Made me feel unwelcome and bothersome, he then proceeded to discuss his sexual conquests with the patron who I assume was his friend next to me. Not that that's an issue but when he made me feel uncomfortable in being at the bar anyway. The overall experience was a let down and I enjoyable. Will not be returning.

Walking in during hockey playoff season, it was awesome seeing so many invested in a Toronto Maple Leafs playoff game, not the norm where I come from. I noticed the spacious pool table area as well. In my neck of the woods, pool table areas are nowhere near as spacious. Drinks are affordable and bartenders like Simon and patrons alike, are super friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for a neighborhood bar feel and I have to say it one more time.

They always put the leafs game on when they're playing which is Mae's them a reliable game spot. Over the past couple of years I felt their food quality has slowly declined but today was different. Way exceeded my expectations. We started with a corona zero and ranch water (passion fruit flavour) we were both really happy with it. The didn't skimp on the tequila. We started with the Brussels sprouts which is always a great choice from here. Crispy on the outside and not an overwhelming Brussels sprout taste. This is likely because there is a generous sprinkling of grated parm and a great amount of dip. We tried the crispy tuna sushi. The tuna was beautifully marinated, so flavourful. And the sushi was nice and crispy. The vodka pie was a seasonal item and when we saw it listed, we knew we needed to try it. The sauce- amazing, the press was nice and flaky and light and really tasty. And the soccer Sada added nice saltines and flavour without being too overwhelming. For happy hour, the apps and pizzas were $5 off, and the ranch water was $5. I'd come back for the pizza alone! Jeans was our waitress and she was great!
