Tout était excellent ! J'étais en voyage d'affaires à Kitchener pour deux nuits et je suis allé manger les deux soirs à ce restaurant, c'était trop bon ! 🥲

We were very impressed. The wings were huge and the beer cold and Allison was on point! The atmosphere was rejuvenated from the previous owners and nicely done. We will be back. FYI the mild wings have a bite. Nice bite. If you want traditional medium then ask for mix of 2 parts BBQ and I part Mild and you will be pleased. You’re welcome.

Went for the first time tonight for dinner and live entertainment to celebrate a friend’s birthday. Allison made us feel very welcome and was very accommodating as we changed tables, changed part of an order, and she cleaned up a spilled drink (my doing) without any awkwardness. Nothing but great vibes from Allison and the meals were pretty great too!

Looks like a dive bar from outside, but don’t knock it! A friend and I were traveling thru Canada and we stopped here to meet her son. Between the three of us with drinks and appetizers we spent like 180$ (but we drank quite a bit). Service was great, food was absolutely amazing! It was clean and Allison our server was nice and attentive. Would 100% come again if in the area.

Fries terrible, seem to be re heated. Fish and chips meh. Fish okish..
Service mediocre, burger meat was over done. They placed a pickle on top of the bun, dont know why. Sauce on burger was good that was about the only thing on the burger that was good. Mind you the burger was big. Bun was soggy. Won't be back.
Bar inside was very clean

If you’re lucky enough to be served by Allison, consider your night officially upgraded.

Allison isn’t just a bartender—she’s the gold standard for hospitality. From the moment you sit down, you feel like you’ve walked into a place that knows you, even if it’s your first time. Her smile? Genuine. Her timing? Impeccable. Her ability to remember drink orders, personal preferences, and still crack a joke that makes the whole bar laugh? That’s wizard-level stuff.

She’s not just pouring drinks—she’s curating an experience. The cocktails? Balanced to perfection. Her recommendations? Always on point. And the vibe she creates? Equal parts cozy and electric. Whether you’re a regular or just passing through, Allison makes you feel seen, welcome, and part of something special.

Allison is not just a bartender—she is the heartbeat of the bar, the warm glow in the room, and the reason people stay for “just one more.”

From the second you sit down, something feels different. It’s not the lighting, not the music, not even the carefully curated drink menu—it’s Allison. There’s an energy she brings that turns a regular night out into something you’ll be telling your friends about for weeks. She greets you with a smile that’s not rehearsed, not routine—it’s real. You feel like a friend, not just a customer. Somehow, she makes you feel like you belong.

Allison doesn’t just mix drinks—she orchestrates experiences. Her knowledge of spirits, flavor profiles, and perfect pairings would rival any top-tier sommelier or cocktail chemist, yet she delivers it all with humility and ease. She doesn’t show off, she just shows up—and does so with grace, charisma, and a kind of confidence that can’t be taught.

What really sets her apart, though, is her intuition. She somehow knows what you need before you do. Celebrating something? She’s got the perfect drink and toast. Had a rough day? She’ll lend a listening ear and pour a bourbon that feels like a hug. She reads the room like a seasoned storyteller—pacing, timing, and tone always pitch-perfect. She can hold court with a crowd of regulars, charm a table of newcomers, and keep a dozen orders spinning behind the bar without ever losing her calm.

Allison’s presence has this rare magic: she makes every single person feel like they’re the most important person in the room. And yet—she’s never showy, never over-the-top. Just effortlessly cool, warm, sharp-witted, and in control. You could walk into the bar in the worst mood and walk out feeling like the world isn’t such a bad place after all, and that shift? That’s Allison.

In an industry where it’s easy to get lost in the noise, Allison is the signal. A true professional. A gracious host. A mixologist, conversationalist, and quietly brilliant performer all in one. She doesn’t just raise the bar—she is the bar.

So if you ever have the privilege of sitting at a bar with Allison behind it, do yourself a favor: stay a little longer, tip a little extra, and know you’ve just experienced the absolute best of what this world has to offer.

Cheers to Allison—may your nights be many and your shifts be short, but your legend always long.

What a fantastic restaurant! We are travelling from out of town and had excellent service from Maria on her first night serving. Well done Maria! It looks like Alison is a great coach. You’re going to do amazing!
All of our food was incredible as well. 100% recommend.
