Review from Shiona R.

I really quite love this sports bar. I have been to Hurricanes a number of times for quiet drinks, to watch hockey, for wings (which are pretty darn good!).
This place kind of feels a little bit sketchy, the ladies washrooms are not the best but they are not dirty! However it is reasonable priced, when there is a sporting event the place is busy and you can get pitchers as I recall. What I loved about this place when the hockey was on T.V; any time the Leafs scored the horn sounded and blue lights flashed. Fantastic atmosphere!
It is relaxed, bar staff are friendly, great mix of clientele! Small patio with some shelter.
Brunch: cheap as chips/home fries in this case. Expect to pay $7-10 for brunch. The farmers feast is epic value for money and you will be stuffed (advise, where your elasticated meat pants for that boy!) -

the new menu is unreal, the brisket sandwich or dinner is the BOMB. Mac and Cheese is homemade and so so so so good. Bartenders and servers who actually want to serve you as well, plus whatever big game is on, they have got it playing. Great neighborhood bar

I completely forget that prices can get reasonable again when you leave the downtown core.
Pleasantly surprised that everything on pub menu was 5ish bucks cheaper AND the same greasy deliciousness to boot, I ordered me some pubfare, a Guinness and watched the hockey game (they play Canucks games!) while listening to some less than stellar Karaoke singers on a Wednesday night.
PROS:
-unpretentious, as everyone else has noticed
-good folks. No frat boys to roll your eyes at. No weirdos that you need to avoid eye contact with.
-GREAT bar (a grade A bar consists of 1) purse hooks; 2) stools that swivel and have a back rest; 3) stools with appropriately placed foot rest; 4) bar with a foot rail or general shelf/gradient that is not the floor) This place hit ALL those things.
-Clean washrooms
-Queer friendly (you don't usually get that from a lot of bars where I live- it's nice to have an "all-inclusive" feel- feeling comfortable that everyone is welcome.
-did I mention Karaoke? where there a couple good people but the overwhelming majority seem to be tone deaf with amazing performance skillz? Totally fun.
CONS: The bar "corner" is usually my favourite place to sit and it is awkardly close to the washroom entrance. which is only a slight con.
-The draught selection leaves something to be desired. I like a few options for dark porters and stouts. They only had the standard Guinness. Which I gave another shot because they didn't have anything else that was dark (btw- sleemans cream ale is NOT considered dark, people).
Turns out, I still dislike Guinness.
So all in all- I'd totally come back and reccommend this place.
Give me a few more nights listening to awesome attempts at Journey and old country and I bet I can add one star for this place. -

I have a friend who lives nearby, so whenever I'm in the neighbourhood visiting her, we always plan to meet up here for cheap drinks.
I like this joint. It has a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere that attracts a mixed crowd from the neighbourhood. Yes, it's kind of divey but compared to some, it's not full of derelict characters nor irresponsible fratboys getting drunk on Bud Lite so I have to say that the Hurricane's is a-ok in my books.
I've only tried one thing on their menu and it was their burger with a mixed green salad on the side. I have to say that the burger was delicious, moist and peppery, and I was unable to stop eating it until it was done. I also remember being really hungry but also it was a damn good burger! With a pint of beer, the order came to a cheap price of $11, which isn't bad for a local watering hole in Bloorcourt.Listed in: Beer & Whiskey Joints

Hurricane's is a great little bar/restaurant in the Bloorcourt neighbourhood. It has just about everything you'd want your local watering hole to have:
Pub grub, a full bar, music, sports fanatics and every night has a special theme. Tuesdays' are 2-4-1 wings (which has in the past been my night-usually with a pitcher and the Leaf's game), and Wednesday's are karaoke (very fun to watch).
As basic pub food goes, try the wings or their fish and chips! -

Great wings, not too big but the Mon/Tues 1/2 Price deal is good. The Mexi-fries are great too. Very low key, a little divey but I don't mind that at all. The chef specials are quite good too, especially the ribs/wings/salad/fries for $11. What a deal! I'm pretty much a regualr due to the lack of sports bars in the area and they have lots of tv's in HD for games.
