The place is a bit run down and smells old and musty. We went upstairs to sit down and waited quite a while before someone came over. The place was almost empty. Our drinks were awful! They were cheap and poorly mixed. We were going to get food and decided to go somewhere else.
Avoid this place

This was such a fun discovery! The ambiance in the upper level is incredible with the old bookshelves and the pool tables. Perfect for a rowdy hangout with friends or a night out studying. Prices are all really good, and the sweet potato fries were awesome

advertising this as a library pub then playing loud sports on the library floor makes no sense at all

Its an old pub so very unique. The staff don't communicate well, the downstairs hostess didn't have our reservation..upstairs did but only for 4 and we were 5.
The food..not fabulous. One of the salads had old or not fresh lettuce. No real plates..flimsy paper plates. The sampler platter was filled with fries..and over cooked items. When asked for a refund on the salad we were told there was no manager on site so he couldn't do anything. This was a Friday night..why no manager?
Atmosphere was cool..old pubs should look like this and it was clean although we didn't use the bathroom so can't speak to that.
Would we go back..perhaps for a beer but considering they didn't have a few wines that were asked for probably not.

Always weird treatment when I come. Random dude says, something about racism. Weird vibes.
Been here and the service was very slow, poor and nobody cares to serve. Just a waste of time going here. At the end I left the place after 10 minutes as they didn't care to serve. Avoid going here.

I used to like coming here for a beer and enjoying the atmosphere. When I came earlier on in the year I found the place dirty. I sat by the window on the main floor and could see all the dust and grunge. Looked like the place hadn't been cleaned in a long time. In addition, the beer prices were on a par with what you would find at a classier place with good amenities. Don't think I will return....

I worked 11 hours today and was met with the incredibly warming service of Church and Sam. Imperial Pub is a Toronto Institution and I’m very grateful to have them in my life. Long Live

The bar is really run down, smells weird, bartenders have no knowledge on certain drinks, when we got the bill they added double the amount of drinks on it.. and blamed the fact that there were different bartenders serving us. Won’t be back here; ordered a drink she made it a double & charged us.. some people shouldn’t work in the industry without people skills…
This place was recommended to us.
