    Food was nothing to write home about. We showed up with 2 more people than on our reservation. The hostess seemed put out by that, even though there was lots of empty tables. Also put us at a table for 4 when there was 5 of us and then seemed upset when we were in the aisle. They could have put us at a better table.

    Love the interesting history of the place. Great place to take visitors from out of town. Staff were lovely and attentive. Food was great but your plate looks pretty empty if you order only a sandwich or a burger (as it doesn’t automatically come with a side). Overall, everyone at my table was satisfied with the experience! Will go back.

    Overall great experience! Very good food & cocktail. Service improved as the night went on & we cooped our dessert which was a lovely surprise! We were seated in the corner by the kitchen, which wasn’t the best. Love the vibe & will be back.

    Dinner with a friend. Relaxing atmosphere and great food. Tried the Perogy dish. Filling but not as flavourful as would like. Prawns are amazing. Presentation was great!!!
