I loved this festival. My father and I went to the RUSH concert earlier this month and it was a great experience. I wish that we'd brought lawn chairs because it was wicked crowded and we ended up sitting on the grass for a while so that we didn't…More »
We just went here for dinner tonight, and it was fabulous. The beer was great--and there was a lot of it--and the food was good, too. We all ordered the specials. Two bison filets with mashed potatoes and a salmon filet with risotto. Everything…More »
I'm in love.
No, really. I'm moving to Ottawa and working at this place. The waitress told us that they encourage you to try all of the draft beers so that you can tell customers what they taste like. I am so on that train.
When I saw the Beer…More »
I've been here twice now and really enjoyed it both times. We came early both times, so no problems with seating, and had delicious meals. But let's get real; I went for the beer. I had some delicious beers, some mediocre beers, and the…More »

We came out here yesterday to hang out and, for my brothers-in-law, watch the golf whatever. It was our second stop, and we all managed to find parking (partly because it was Sunday afternoon, I'd imagine). I parallel parked right in front of the…More »

I stopped in last night for a beer while waiting for a friend to show up for dinner, and it was a decent bar. They have some interesting beers, which is why I went in, and a lot of TVs. It was a little awkward being alone in there given the…More »
We went here for lunch yesterday, and I'm glad we did. We ordered 2 flights, the Greek salad, and the chicken pesto pizza, all to share.
Though I did not like a large portion of the beers we tried, the waitress was great with the flights. She gave…More »
The beer on tap was varied and good. My friend ordered a Dos Equis and something must have been wrong with the tap, so we sent it back (I did, she was a little timid about it) and they brought her something different.
My sandwich was delicious and…More »
I guess I've never really read the full name of this place because I was surprised when we went there for dinner last weekend. There was a 25 minute wait to get a table, so we headed in to the bar to get a beer and then take it out to the waiting…More »
I've been to Dhaba twice, once for dinner and once for lunch. Both times it was a good meal. The full menu had a lot of options and today's lunch buffet was good. I don't really know if they have the same thing every time, but it had a chicken,…More »

I was here for happy hour a while ago with my sister. I ordered a Dos Equis Amber and she a Corona Light, and we had a good time. I also had queso and chips. I didn't really think that there was anything particularly special about Escalantes, and…More »

So, I'm a bit of a beer snob. I don't like drinking Bud Light or Heineken or what have you unless I'm somewhere with people doing keg stands and playing beer pong and those are the only choices. Now that we've established that, let me say that I am…More »
I really liked this place. Great food, great service, decent beer (it was a little warm ...all three times I had some). The only complaint I would have was the other clientele, but they obviously can't help that the giant group of women at the…More »
This place was pretty good. I had a pitcher of beer (Checker Cab Blonde Ale) that was $22 and tasty and we managed to get a table on the side of the bar that's towards the stage. It wasn't very crowded, probably because it was supposed to rain, but…More »

I like the atmosphere of the Ginger Man. I've been a couple of times now on weekends during the day to do research and drink beer. Their list is pretty good, though I have managed to find 5 or so beers each time I go that they've run out of.
Other…More »
So I tried the food this time. I ordered the Mediterranean salad, and I don't know what was so Mediterranean about it. That being said, it wasn't bad. The chicken was sliced strangely and I kinda enjoy that odd warm-chicken-cold-salad thing but this…More »

This is another place that I went today for the first time. The outside doesn't look too promising and I almost didn't go in because of that (even though I'd looked it up online before going). Part of that, I'm sure, is that I go to bars while…More »

The beers, and the beer samplers, are great. I went here because I'm trying to work my way through 300 different kinds of beer before next May, and got to try 11 in one night. Without getting beyond slightly tipsy.
The food, on the other hand, is…More »
I love hockey, so the Maple Leaf is a good bar for me. They have a decent (if not spectacular) beer selection, and mimosas for a dollar on Sunday morning for those who maybe want a little hair of the dog after Saturday night.
They don't have food,…More »
So I have no idea what this place might be like when it's busy or at night, but I really like working in bars in the middle of the afternoon and this suited my purposes very well. It's open, laid out well, and the beer selection is decent.
I was…More »
I've been to Shiva many times, most recently to the lunch buffet. I'm usually not a big fan of buffets, so if I had known that they had one I don't think I would have gone. That being said, I'm glad we went. It was nice to try different things…More »
I just got into Valhalla, and I like it. The beer selection is good and continues to change all night, it's about three seconds from my dorm, and it's relatively cheap. I'm not sure how far I agree with this oo-de-lally about the beer being super…More »

There was a large beer selection here, though I'm not sure I'm a fan of the layout. I'd say there were about 20-30 beers on tap, and there were at least 5 that I haven't tried before. The waitress was a little slow when we were there (at about 2 AM…More »

This is a great place if you're looking for a local hangout. For me, it was a fun bar with a good beer and great cheese fries, but their limited beer list would keep me from going back.
Also, the music here was painfully bad. Imagine that Boys Like…More »

What a great looking pub with a wonderful beer list! I was there last night (because I do most of my drinking on Mondays, it would seem), and their beer list is a fabulous thing. They also have a lot of variety on tap--I managed to only get one…More »
This place was alright. I wanted pizza and a beer, and I wanted it fast. That's what I got. I ordered 2 slices of cheese and a pint of their lager (as in the Pizza Pub Lager) and got it all for $7. The pizza tasted like they were afraid to use…More »

I must admit that I don't think I'll jump at the chance to go back here. Mostly I was just underwhelmed. The ambience was a little dingy, the beer selection a little boring, and the waitress had some issues carrying things. At one point the…More »
I really don't understand the appeal of this place. After looking at the menu and the prices, I would have left if I hadn't been planning to meet my sister here. $18 for a sirloin that was 1/6th fat? Are you nuts? As opposed as I am to the Outback…More »
We stopped here on our way to Ottawa through the Adirondacks, and it was a wicked disappointment. The waitress was horrible, to say the least. She literally would walk over to the table three feet from us and serve them, then look at us and ignore…More »

So, the beer here is fantastic and that's enough for me to love it.
There are, however, some downsides:
1. It is really loud inside. Loud enough that having a conversation with someone a foot from you is difficult.
2. As someone else has said, service…More »
