Review from Craig B.
Pickering, ON
Very nice pub especially when you walk in on a real cold winter day.
It has a warm feel to it in the heart of the city.
The food has always been good to me and the staff very friendly and helpful. The various imported beers have always been bang on fresh.
Again, the food is good but the atmosphere is really what makes it for me. -
Review from Liam K.

The staff is cool, and someone was handing out sliders when i was there witch I thought was pretty awesome.
The only reason i didn't give this place a 3 star rating was because of the fruit flies.
Fucking everywhere fruit flies. ew.
I know it takes a few hours to get rid of them, but they shouldn't be there in the first place. the fact that a fly had time to lay its eggs, and the larva had time to develop shows poor sanitation standards.
bugs in my guinness ew. -
Review from Johnny A.
After a long day of wondering around downtown, we decided to hit The Duke for some beer and nachos. While we were pleased with the beer selection, the nachos were disappointing. You can get decent beer and nachos pretty much anywhere in Toronto, so I was surprised to find out that theirs was not up to par. You would think if they have chicken nachos, they should also have beef? Not the case. And the chicken tasted a bit off. Not a big fan.

Review from Stephan J.

My wife and I had to meet up to run an errand at City Hall and we hadn't had lunch yet so we decided to grab a quick bite here.
I had the Gazpacho which was quite good on a hot summer day on the patio. Then I had a Seafood bake. Salmon, shrimps, haddock and spinach in a cream sauce with bread crumbs on top. For $16 I expected better, it was a bit oily and nothing special.
My wife had a Southwestern style club which she said was okay and sweet potato fries which are good even when bad, like pizza.
I had cranberry and soda and my wife had an Amaretto Sour in a tall glass which she said was delicious. It looked like it was made with real lemon and lime juices.
So a soup, two entree's, two non-alcoholic drinks and two alcoholic drinks and it was $64. A little pricey for lunch in my books. -
Review from Todd V.

I think I have a problem. I know this pub is somewhat franchised. I know it's in the Eaton Centre (http://www.yelp.ca/biz...). I know exactly what's on offer before I ever go in there. But I still keep going. There's so many times that I've been walking through the neighbourhood, get a text from a friend looking to hook up for a quick bite and I look around and see the Duke. Ditto days of shopping when you're sick of being in any more stores that have the word "Navy", "Republic", or "Gap" in the name. You need a pint quick.
The Duke of Richmond is at the south-end of the mall with entrances outside the mall. If you get sneaky and walk through the Cadillac-Fairview Tower entrance, you can enter directly into the bar at the back. Good details to know if you find yourself inside and not wanting to walk into (-40) deg. C weather to get a lunch in.
It's standard British fare in a standard British-style pub with a menu that is not dissimilar to the other "Duke of" pubs that dot the city. It rates higher in the books in my mind because of its location (right inside the mall) and the memories that it holds for me. When I used to work in that very tower years ago, we used to refer to the Duke of Richmond as the "First Floor Boardroom". There were many meetings.
Specialties
Settle in to one of our cozy booths. Order a couple of ice-cold pints and maybe some pub grub to share. Then just kick back, relax, and help yourself to a generous serving of downtown buzz. Whether you're stepping away from work for a quick bite or gearing up for a night on the town, we're your friendly local in the heart of the city.
