The perfect place for a quick bite or drink while youre in the market.
Unique atmosphere and decor, you won't find another place like it in Ottawa. Classic menu (burgers, hotdogs, poutine, fries etc). Prices are great! Food comes out hot. Drinks are canned if that matters to you. Service is really friendly. It might be a one man show at the FOH, at least all the times I've been.

Not an exceptional burger in my opinion, good value perhaps. Their Cajun fries are decent tho and nice that they have a patio

Absolutely great poutines! Just that we had no idea it was a heavy metal place. There’s only one person handling the orders and everything st once and he’s too good. The poutines were plenty in portion and tasted fresh.

There was so much improvement in our experience there as our server was running around crazy doing absolutely everything for all the guests including cooking, cleaning and serving. Great guy though!
If you're a metalhead/punk/goth or whatever else, you will love this place. Feels like eating at a cool, small music venue. Friendly service, cool music, funny band puns for menu items, just all around a great spot. The cheddar cheese on my burger was phenomenal. Hell ya 😎

Great place to be excellent food,excellent services,awesome music its a favorite resto ...
I’ve been here several times over the past few years, and I’m always satisfied with my experience. Great music, great menu, and exceptional service. Went on a quiet Wednesday, and the dude there (didn’t catch his name) handled everything from service, to cooking, to bartending, and he did a dang fantastic job. We’ll be back!
Also, can I just mention how reasonable the prices are, especially given that this restaurant is in the market?! I paid more for a mediocre meal at chick-fil-a in the mall. +10 cool points for whoever supports this local business 🤘

excellent warm/kind/friendly/grounded service from Colby. felt well-tended to. great entertainment from his lil buddy Harley. I found the place to be calming, I was able to eat a bit more mindfully as a result (focus on the flavours, the crunch, etc). Idk, I really like it. excellent I got the vegetarian Cannibal poutine (it has mushroom gravy, yum!!) and a Diet Coke. obsessed with the item names on the menu too. total vibe.

Awesome place for families with kids! Had fun there today on The Canada Day !
Dragged my angel of a mom in with me and had a chill time! Service is friendly, tables very clean and the atmosphere not at all intimidating as one may expect! It's a nice balance of humor and alternativeness. The mural in the washroom is such a fun idea! Would enjoy a sticker or patch of something like that!

This place honestly deserves 5 stars the food, the atmosphere, everything.
The food was so good, the poutine was scrumptious.
The burger was incredible with the amount and the flavor.
But the poor worker here. He was cooking, cleaning, entering the patrons, and it was just him. He really needs a second person as it's too much work for one.
If that changes, the place is 5/5 stars

I went here while visiting from BC. Highly recommended by friends. Definitely heavy metal vibes. Service was fast and efficient. He wasn't very chatty but I assume that's the vibe they want to give. All of our food was amazing. Good pub style food for the price. I'm actually surprised by the bad reviews as we had such a great experience. I will definitely be back.
