Lima Charlie’s Reviews
Best sports bar/ dive in the neighborhood
Friend recommended this place to watch soccer matches. Good beer. Great fish and chips! Nice crowd. Good screens.
Best pub in Toronto and it's not close - from the top down, incredible people with great food/drink. Best bartender/host/server/everything in Lauren, can't say enough nice things about how fantastic she is! She always makes it a fantastic experience - as does everyone here - but far and away the best service in the city. All fantastic and deserve so much more attention as a great pub that's run by the best people around!

Lima Charlie's, formerly known as Gabby's, has seen many improvements since becoming an independent establishment. The new owner has transformed the bar into a welcoming spot that offers solid pub fare and great deals, such as $10 for a pound of wings on Tuesdays and Thursdays, along with $5 house brew. The menu features a variety of food options, including non-alcoholic drinks. Recent reviews highlight the delicious veggie burger with a house-made patty of beans and corn, served with yummy garlic mayo, and the house-made fries. Guests also enjoyed the chicken wings from the St. Lawrence Market and a great house lager.
The renovated interior combines modern design with character, keeping the golf machines while updating the decor. Window seats provide a particularly enjoyable spot, especially with good weather. Although mainly a sports bar with TVs throughout, Lima Charlie's creates a friendly atmosphere for everyone. The staff, especially server Jimmy, are highly praised for their friendliness and attentiveness, making guests feel at home. Many reviews mention the staff's friendliness and how they can accommodate larger groups with ease.
The reviews suggest that the chef is talented, with many fire options, and the overall vibe is fun and welcoming. The place is dog-friendly, which adds to its charm. While there are suggestions for improvements like a better daytime music playlist and a special brunch menu to attract more customers from neighboring areas, the overall experience remains positive. Highlights include the attentive staff, the great atmosphere, and the tasty food, making it a place worth returning to.
