The food was absolutely abysmal- The chicken wings were tiny and dry, the poutine was mush by the time it got to the table, and the chicken tenders were alarmingly tart. I enjoyed the yam fries and the Reuben was good. The server took the wings off the bill, and all servers were fantastic!

What happened to this place? This used to be one of my neighborhood spots. The service and food standards have fallen off the map. I unfortunately will never return. I am so disappointed as this establishment used to be great. :(

One of the few real neighbourhood pubs remaining in Victoria. It's in a rarified area with expensive homes, but the pub itself is comfortable and down to earth. Good selection of beers and great pub food.

A pub with a truly British vibe - dark timbers, the right kind of sticky, even the stairs feel just right. Unexpectedly the best burgers (fish burger and a vegetarian bean burger) we had on this trip. Sit out on the deck if it's a nice day.

Unfortunately I must have hit an off day, as we all have them, Thankfully my server Lucy was super quick and kind to take my chicken burger off the bill when I had commented it was pretty burnt :( fries were super salty and so was the Chipotle aioli, the saving grace to the dish was honestly the side of Aioli I asked for. It had a great subtle hint of lemon and herbs and masked the fact that the fries were over salted!
I'm definitely willing to try again since the service and atmosphere was awesome!
P.s the guava beer is actually really good! In between a mix of a pilsner and a sour in my opinion!
One of our go to sports for a quick date night. Always a good meal and the servers take care of us. Recommend the reuben.
We went there on Sunday but we didn't have to wait for the table. The service is great. The portion of fish and chips and nachos are large, and the taste is not bad.

Small neighborhood pub. Decor is English pub. Great fish and chips.
Old school charm.
The cod tacos were really good! Friendly staff and a laid-back atmosphere.
Cozy spot to grab a bite and have some good drinks. Plenty of tvs to watch games.
Nothing wrong here today. We had good food and a relatively quiet atmosphere -very enjoyable experience.
Waitress was nice and professional yet “down homey” I had the Rueben -awesome.
Wife had calamari and Caesar -enjoyed
