I went for dinner tonight - I have a gluten allergy (pretty well known by now).. I told the server that I have a severe allergy. He first suggested I go to Denny's instead..
As I've had this allergy since I can remember - there has to be some options? Not even salad?

He suggested - grilled chicken with salad.

So I agreed , thanked him for accomodation.

When the food came out - it had CRUTONS on it!

When I informed the server , he took my plate back and took them out himself and brought it back. I ended up getting severely sick after eating.

HIGHLY do not suggest this restaurant - ESPECIALLY if you have an anaphylactic allergy - you might just end up in the hospital because this place doesn't take care of their customers allergies. On top of that - the flat attitude and unfriendly demeanour was unreal. I'll be making sure never to stop by again.

Eating out isn't cheap and allergies should be taken seriously. Makes sense why nobody was in there eating during happy hour.

Place was not busy. Took a long while to put in the order and get our food. When food came out it was not hot or even warm. Waiter didn’t seem to pay attention to us for awhile and some people came in and walked out after a bit because they didn’t get waited on. Not terribly impressed

Went in last Saturday about 6 PM… There were four of us and only two other tables occupied.
The nachos were horrible, I don’t think it was even cheese on it but some other type of sauce and everything was cold. The server never once came to the table to see how everything was and never came to ask if we wanted another drink. When we decided to leave, we stood by our table, thinking this was an indication that we are ready to leave and wanted our bill. The server never did come over to us. We just left payment on the table and left.
Would not go back or recommend this place.

Great food! Excellent wings, tacos and poutine! Good place to watch a hockey game!

Went in before an Oldies concert and while the place was fairly busy, it would’ve been a normal Friday in most pubs. We placed a drink order and it took a good 10-15 min to get those and a couple of drinks weren’t even full when we did get them. The waiter said they weren’t the normal glass and the mix was pre-measured (wtf??). Placed a food order and went up 40-45 min later to cancel it so we weren’t late for the concert. All in all a pretty poor experience. Do not recommend.

I came into Bar 1 with a couple of drink recipes off the internet. The bartender Ami did a great job creating both of them with a slight lack of ingredients and her own added twist to make up for it.
I highly recommend you check this place out when Ami is on shift. I bet she could make you any drink within her available ingredients.
I will be back.

I also highly recommend you check out Taco Tueday! My favorite meal.
Did you know you can order food off the Dennys menu while seated in Bar 1? You sure can! This really opens up your food choices while enjoying the Bar 1 atmosphere & Bartender Ami's fabulous drinks!

Our food, all of it came to us cold. After waiting for the food and the waitress stating it wasn't busy it was cold. Service was very slow

In last two weeks have been there twice. Problem though is that now it winter. They have it way too cold in there for eating. By time we ate and left was really cold. Took a while to get rid of the chill in my body

I was staying in the Sandman hotel where this restaurant is . I called in from the room and they said 5 to 10 minutes for the loaded tots appetizer . So I went there I proceeded to wait another 20 minutes. By this time, it was almost happy hour . If I wanted to wait this long, I would have just ordered this for half-price at happy hour

When it came after 33 minutes of placing the order, I told the waitress that this took too long anything after over 25 minutes is not acceptable. So I asked if I could return it and cancel it and she said no . then I asked if theres Something that the manager could do and she came back and returned and with no solution
Horrible customer service (and no local craft beers to choose from!!) . The restaurant had only two customers in it and so I couldn’t understand how it could possibly take so long and then found out they share a kitchen with Denny’s . However, this did not make up for how long I had to wait and feeling very dissatisfied with this food. By the time it came to me, it was almost happy hour where this item was on. It would’ve been nice if they would’ve at least given me half price for how long I had to wait or got me a beverage or something to make up for taking a chunk of my time waiting . When I used to work in the restaurant industry anything over 25 minutes and if a guest was unhappy, we would definitely do something for them

This just wasn't a great experience. The place was almost empty but there was next to no service, and my order was incorrect... but the server never came back. In the end we had to go ask for our bill.
