Review from Nina A.
Etobicoke, ON
For the last four years of my academic career this has been my go-to spot for a great night. Even when it was the Silver Spur, they knew how to accommodate a good time. I'm there multiple times a week and have so much love and respect for the employees there, including my bouncer and bartender friends. I'm the official Duchess of this place, everyone who knows me knows that! Who is this Vincent guy? As far as I'm concerned he's never shown his face here and doesn't deserve the title.

Review from Linda M.

I did a review for the Silver Spur, so I guess I should do one for it's reincarnation. For me, it's kind of like Voldemort (oh I'm geeking it up alright), in that I try not to say it's name. In my mind, it is and always will be The Spur. If I confuse you by using it's old name, well quite frankly that's your problem.
I have a deep and everlasting love of the Spur, so when it closed I was upset. I was happy to hear, though, that it would be re-opening with different owners. Until I heard the name. I'm sorry, but who names a bar Chainsaw?? I digress.
Apparently there were some improvements made, the country music posters that covered the walls were removed, and it was no longer 7-nights-a-week-karaoke. Some nights they had live bands. I'm honestly not sure if that's still the case as I haven't been in over a year.
It's still a good, relaxed, chill bar for some beers with friends. But it will never be as good as the original.Listed in: November's 30 in 30
