What a great place!

I came here for their trivia night, which was AWESOME.

The staff there is amazing... they're friendly and incredibly accommodating. They were so nice to us, even after we needed to change tables a few times as our group grew.

I came here for an informal business meeting. We had our meeting on a couple of couches in the back, which was perfectly comfy and reasonably quiet. There's also free wifi, which is an absolute requirement for us. Our server was very patient with us,…More »

So much meh in this place.

Apparently Sunday - Thursday is wing night, so the place was pretty full. My friend and I were seated at a patio set at the back of the place, which is not my ideal seating arrangement, but I was hungry.

Being wing night, I…More »

It's got a beautiful spiral staircase, a decent amount of seating and a barista (baristo?) that actually SMILED at me. It was like being in another world.

This is fast becoming my favourite place to meet clients/potential clients. There are a lot of tables that can fit a couple of people, a bar-type area so that laptop loners aren't taking up said tables, it's close to the subway and free parking. It's…More »

Gosh, buy a laptop and suddenly you'll visit every Starbucks in the city.

I came here on a lunch break to do some stuff on my laptop. The service was very friendly (!) and quick. Honestly, every time I get a smile from a Starbucks barista, I am…More »

Very nice service, and decent seating and free wifi.

They were almost out of apple cider, and were only able to fill the medium cup 3/4 of the way full. They gave me a discount, which was nice.

This location has patio-type seating in the middle of the…More »

Of this I'm sure: Prohibition is a great place to get a drink.

That being said, everything else got a little hazy as the night progressed due to said drinks.

I came here with a friend to discuss some business things. The place was absolutely packed so…More »

Recently updated lists from Elaine K.

Life in the Grocery Lane (11) Places to go when you can't afford to let someone else prepare and bring your meal.	Wing a Ding Ding! (16) Wings are my weakness. They are the kryptonite to my Superman. The garlic to my Dracula. The whoever-Weak-was-written- about to my SWV. Here are some places you can get wings, from the incredible to the incredibly mediocre.
Something to yelp home about (11) Some of the places we've visited and/or purchased from to acquire and furnish our new home.	Ain't no mountain high enough (8) Places that I love so much, I'd run to when the craving hits, no matter how far away I am.
Places that ruined my week (8) Spots that turned me into a single-minded zombie, unable to concentrate on any task other than one that might bring me back.	Yelp 30-Day Challenge (29) 30 new/unreviewed places in 30 days? Here we gooooo!
Friday Night Booze-down Pubs (11) Every Friday, my husband and I get together for a date after he finishes work at midnight to catch up on our week. The places we go to have to be reasonably close to the subway, preferably around the downtown core, be quiet enough for conversation and serve booze until 2am for us to get properly sloshed.	Lunch places near Hwy. 7 and 404 (5) Having worked in the area for 3 years, I have my few choice places that I go to again and again.
