    The great thing about The Foxes Den is consistency.  Lots of screens to watch the game.  The quality of the food is always amazing.  The staff are incredible. And Honestly, the people are pretty great too.

    This is the bar you throw up when no one can think of something to do, and everyone always goes, ya, it's always a good time. let's do that.

    Also, one time, we stepped in to the Twilight Zone here.  Now, I'm not bragging or anything, but I'm not the ugliest dude on the planet.  But that night, I was.  It was like HOT GUY/GAL CENTRAL!  Couldn't believe this little hole in the wall off Bay street was hosting the likes of the cutest of the cute.  Very Outer Limits.

    Anyways, if you're looking for somewhere consistent, this is the place to go!

    The Hubster and I came here for a quick bite before a movie at the Manulife Centre just north of here. There was a panini special going on, so he had the club panini with salad and fries for $8.99. I had a pound of wings for $10. We both had some drinks.

    We sat on the patio, which was nice, but obscured from the street with some really high foliage. In fact, at one point, some guy peered in between the bushes, Friendly Giant giraffe style right beside our table. Very creepy.

    The service was also very good. The server was friendly, and came to check on us at reasonable times.

    The food kind of sucked. The Hubster was not at all impressed by his panini (the fries were okay) and I'm pretty sure that my wings were frozen costco wings with Frank's Red Hot sauce on them. I'm not certain that they are the worst wings i've ever had, but they're in the running.

    We might return because the service was good and the drinks were great, but we won't be eating there again.

    On a saturday night, they had only one server working. We were asked to get our own drinks from the bar. When asked if we can start a tab with the server, she said 'only if you really really want to and if you're going to be miserable and leave if i said no.'

    Thanks, but no thanks! I'll go somewhere else that is not this poorly managed.  To make matters worst, they weren't even busy!

    Went here with 10 people from work, we didn't get the chance to call and give noticed but they were happy (and very able, not a lot of people in there when we went, a Friday at about 5) to take us in. They put us in the back room and sat us all down, promptly taking our orders. Every single one of my party enjoyed their food, I got the steak sandwich, other people got the burger, pizza, shepherds pie, soup, nachos, chocolate cake.

    Every single person loved their meal, service was good and we all had a good time. Great pub, for groups and for individuals. My favorite downtown pub.

    A great little cozy pub tucked away in Yorkville. They've got lots of fun shooters and drinks for decent prices, and the food is really good for a pub. There's a pretty big menu with lots of pub classics: fish & chips, burgers, sandwiches, chicken wings, ribs, salads, etc. Both the classic & veggie burgers here are some of the best I've ever had. Service has always been friendly and fast. There are also lots of TVs and they play a variety of sports events, and there's a pool table. Also not full of annoying drunk students, so it's a great place for a nice relaxing drink after work on Friday.

    Definitely not the best food.
    Why the high rating?

    I am notorious for being an elitist, and normally I complain about service in Toronto all the time. Literally, every meal ends with " This would never do in Manhattan"...

    so when I met a friend here at 10 pm on a Sunday night, my expectations were low.

    This literally is a den- as in i stood bewildered on Bay st and he crawled out to meet me. I walked in to find the World cup playing with an electic mix of men at the bar, and groups scattered throughout. We had a few glasses of Pinot  as I chenneled my inner Ramona before realiing I was hungry, and our waitress was so friendly she talked me into getting the chili nachos. I know she said it was a lot, but the plate was MASSIVE..and they were delicious.

    The  lighting is dim enough to be seductive yet casual. Love that its steps to  home, will definitely be back to try out the bar for a nightcap

    Normally, I go to this pub during TIFF when I am in the area.
    Recently, I had some time to spare and just dropped in for a pint and a snack. Had some "peel & eat" shrimps which were just great and hit the spot.

    The wings are okay but the burgers are delicious! I like stopping by here for a few drinks with the friends. It's a good place for a group or just a quick bite to eat.
