Unless you’re a HUGE garlic fan, reconsider ordering the Chicken Shawarma. They changed the sauce apparently. I don’t know what was wrong with it but I was feeling a little off after two bites last Sunday. The fries are great so I stuck with those. The next day, I pulled 90% of the shawarma out of the fridge to reheat for brunch and just spent the last two days feeling ill. I’ve had food poisoning before so I know the symptoms. All I know is that I will not be eating there again. Just got off the phone with today’s mgr and he asked me what else I ate that could have caused these symptoms, and whether I refrigerated my food right away (it’s chicken and mayo, of course I did!) Was simply told that they sell 30~40 a day with no problems. Okay, I was letting them know that they may want to check if anybody else had any issues, but I ended up getting interrogated. Sadly lacking in empathy & customer service. I won’t be back.

The wings are fantastic and the spinach dip was great. I admire how large it is and their loyal following. I think they could step up the decor and service some more though.

Food is excellent. Little pricey, but for the most part you get what you paid for. Beer is overpriced, and there will be no deals.

The place was a vibe and the service was great but the food honestly is so bad . We ordered the classic poutine and lamb beef main … both were terrible like the fries in the poutine were burnt and the gravy was trash …the lamb and beef main was super dry and not flavorful at all. Over all the food spoilt the experience ! Won’t be returning ?

A tavern that is full of life. A tavern with a soul. Came here for a bite, ended up having dinner and drinks because I enjoyed my time. Crowd was friendly. There was a live band that performed soul music. Everyone enjoyed and the singers interacted with the crowd. Reception, waiters and especially those at the bar were genuinely friendly and attentive (thanks Hayley. Recommend whether alone or with friends , especially when there’s a band performing.

visited this location for a deaf event. The staff was very accommodating and friendly given the language barrier. for the price of the food, I was not very impressed with the quality. that said, I only tried the onion rings so I can't speak for the whole menu. overall a beautiful location.Vegetarian options: plenty of vegetarian options.Wheelchair accessibility: they have a ramp leading into the restaurant, but be careful as it can be very icy.

It was my first time at the New "Lionshead". Totally different concept to the old pub. Still it brought back memories of playing the piano in the corner and having beers' with friends and family.Parking: Plenty of parking most times. They have thwir own lot, but sometimes street parking is available.Kid-friendliness: Lots of room for the kids to explore and see whats cooking. When I was there, a child that wanted to see the kitchen. She told her mom she wanted to see where all the good food was coming from. ?Wheelchair accessibility: They have wheelchair acces to the main floor and an elevator to the top floor. Someone was thinking about people when they designwd this place ...Kudos.
