My wife and I enjoyed some traditional Irish fare. Draft Beer was excelkent.
Food was awesome. Good place to visit and we enjoy it 😀
As a part of my Sperm Donation World Tour of Canada I came here for a drink while I waited for my washing at the Coin Laundry across the road. Worked out great timing as I saw Netherlands pile on a couple of goals to defeat Brazil 2 to 1 to knock them out of the world cup. I got the Strawberry cocktail on tap, wasn't too bad.
