Our first spot on our trip and I can say the food was amazing and fresh. The sever had our water coming to our table before we can sit down and children cups for my kids. Errin our serve was extremely sweet and held great conversation. The music playing was on point. Coming from New York City I wasn’t expecting to hear the genre of music. If you’re in the area I highly recommend The Bench.

The food was good, nothing out of the ordinary, but well made. Tried chicken wings, burger, salmon tacos and poutine. The mashed potatoes that came as a side was extra ordinary though, perfectly creamy with well balances flavors! I would recommend the old fashioned from their cocktails list.

Now coming to the 2stars for the service. Nothing wrong with our server, she was great and accommodating. But, the initial experience with the front desk was very very bad....
