Happened to pop in twice with two different types of crowds…read more First night came in with my younger cousins and sat at the bar. Rest of the family was home cooking dinner so we were really just grabbing a beverage and an app to split. There was live music, had a very difficult time understanding what he was singing even though we knew the songs. Bartender was very chill and did a great job. Place was busy so reservations would be ideal rather than popping in. Second night the other half of my family came for dinner. We had an appetizer of buffalo cauliflower which was good. I enjoyed my shepherds pie, grandfather liked his fish & chips (which I seen a lot of people order the night before). My uncle had chicken wings while my cousin had chicken sandwich, both were pleased with their meals as well. I imagine there is a lot of traffic from the hotel in the same plaza. Parking can be very difficult later in the evening. One thing that aggravated me was the lack of care to keep a clean sidewalk free if ice and snow. I say this because my girlfriend is disabled and where the handicap parking spot is the ramp and the sidewalk leading to the main entrance was covered in snow. Not only that anyone who is elderly would have difficulties walking as well.

ONION RINGS!!! I visited for dinner and found the…read morerestaurant relatively quiet, but unfortunately, our service was a bit lacking. It was difficult to get sides of sauce, water refills, or even the check in a timely manner. I ordered the Bookmaker Steak Sandwich with onion rings. While the sandwich was generously filled with meat, it didn't quite deliver on flavor. On the other hand, the onion rings were a highlight- crispy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. The batter held up beautifully, with each bite cleanly separating from the onion without any pull-apart mess. Overall, I'd be open to giving this place another try, perhaps with a different entrée, as I believe there's potential here, and those onion rings are definitely worth returning for.

Came in late - like 11pm I think!! - for some dinner. I had bangers and mash. It was fine,…read morenothing too great. Also had a poutine which was pretty good! I think I liked it better than the bangers and mash to be honest. I didn't have any beer or anything but they looked to have a good selection of beer and booze. There was live music, guy playing guitar and singing. He was pretty good. Server was very nice and helped with answering questions.

Traditional Irish food but also some twists on traditional favorites. Loved the French Onion Soup. The Curried Chicken Poutine was a great new interpretation of a Quebec Classic. Husband enjoyed pigs in a blanket and the Shepard's pie. Only drawback, it was difficult to find. Not well lit, and we passed it three times before we saw it. Almost gave up. Glad we didn't.

Patrick was our server and not only recommended a great beer when I said I wanted a good blonde- he told us where it was made and that we could go to the brewery for a tour. I appreciate that kind of service and he wasn't salesy- just chatting it up with us about something that clearly interested us. We went late and wanted apps. We ordered the trio of mini sliders, black and tan onion rings and the spinach/crab/shrimp dip. The dip was ok, the sliders were pretty good- the onions rings were the BEST I have ever had!! Every future onion ring eaten will now be compared to these huge, almost fluffy doughnut like onion rings!! And they come with their own 'spicy ketchup' dipping sauce. Next time we're hitting the terasse and requesting Patrick again. This is my kind of place. Cheers
