The Capitol Bar, located for the past seven years on King Street East, is a fun, welcoming establishment. I was greeted by Derek, our server, and started the evening with the Chips and Dip. Bite-sized kettle chips and a thick garlic dip were a definite hit. The bar itself is well stocked. You'll understand when you look at the menu. I enjoyed a glass of MacCallan. While the space is small, I didn't feel crowded. Bathroom is clean. The cheese burger with bacon was done mid rare, and full of flavor. The side of baked chips was perfect. I was happily full after that. Coming in at $60.00 (my beverage choice was a big ticket item which drove the bill up. Otherwise it was very affordable) I will definitely be visiting again! 5 out of 5.

They don't have hot drinks or maybe refuse to make any hot drinks even alcoholic ones. That's a bit weird, but whatever.
Our issue was more that the dude in charge (manager? Owner?) was not nice to us at all and very blunt about. Didn't offer an explanation or empathy as we came in wet from the cold rain.
We were so excited to come here for the first time ever, so it's a bit of a shame because the atmosphere was nice and the rest of the staff were so nice to us. .
Regardless, it turned us off from ever coming back.

Went for a drink, left to get food came back and one of our party was not allowed in. The claim was that he was inebriated, yet he had been served one drink. This was personal and rude. Denied water as well which honestly gave away the intentions. A patron was behind the non re entry and was rude to us. Her drinks were purchased after she was "offended" by being called beautiful, then she tried to add drinks and called our friend "cheap". The bartender kept our friend out for her, yet she announced to the bar she was going to the bathroom. She said she wanted to cut off my hair then after my friend paid for another round of her drinks she suddenly says, "Are you threatening to kill me?" Out of nowhere. She was just trying to get attention and the bartender made a bad call losing us as returning customers.
