So good! Great food and service, Oxy the bartender will definitely make you laugh ?
Kevin’s review is disgusting, just like him I’m sure. This place is the best, been going there for 15 years. Very, very clean, homemade food that’s delicious with daily specials and very reasonably priced. Awesome wings and love the Guinness steak pie. Try it out, you’ll love it! Glad we don’t have to deal with “Kevin’s” there, the male Karen. Haha.
Had a great time at Red Cardinal recently. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, the staff were friendly and the service was great. The food and drinks were solid and it’s the kind of place that feels comfortable and easygoing. Definitely a good spot to grab a drink, enjoy some food and unwind. I’ll definitely be back!

Based on the reviews, The Red Cardinal Tavern is a small local bar described as a "diamond in the rough". It offers good service and a good contemporary vibe, with some virtual games and a pool table. The back room has screens to watch games, and the decor feels a bit like an après ski lodge. The atmosphere is nice and jovial, with interesting and intelligent people. The food is very good overall, with a menu consistent with fried pub fare. Specific meals mentioned include the cajun calamari, shepherds pie, quesadilla with greek salad, onion soup, poutine, hamburger, chicken stir fry, and coconut shrimp. The $0.99 weekend wings looked fat and juicy. There are good options for tap beer, including a mini-pitcher that is two pints, and a few non-alcoholic choices. The staff are friendly, attentive, and professional. Prices are decent and affordable. Parking is plentiful but signage indicates it is a paid lot, though the restaurant staff assured one visitor it was not necessary. The establishment is wheelchair accessible.
