Prenup Pub - Toronto

Prenup Pub Front As for the interior, there were two floors with separate bars. I liked the added touch of elegance from the fancy chandeliers and sections with comfy seats. Prenub pub Bloggers dinner table The menu is typical of many pubs with steak frites, pizza and burgers with a strong European flair including a Belgium stew and wurst salad . I think the stand out of the restaurant is the variety of beer, with over 70 different taps from around the world! As for the dinner, this was one of the quickest blogger dinners I had experienced. I felt like I was speed eating as 8 dishes including dessert wwre served within a span of an hour or less. Thankfully, I had a sample all the dishes presented to me. Here were my favourites: 1. The Wurst Salad with sliced sausages, tomato, garlic, parsley, dill pickles, marinated with olive oil and German mustard. I love my meat, and this was a tasty way to incorporate into a salad to make it hearty and filling. Wurst salad 2. The Mussels of the Da y with a sweet chili tomato sauce, topped with green onions. I enjoyed the tomato broth accompanying the plump mussels.

The menu at Prenup is, as is to be expected, meat heavy, but they do offer a vegetarian pizza and a hearty chicken stew, which I was able to enjoy. I really liked the stew – it was thick, creamy and perfect for a winter evening. I also thought it paired nicely with the Affligem Abbey Blonde Ale. And, always an important pub fact, the fries at Prenup are pretty darn awesome.<br/ <br/ Prenup Pub has the same owner as The Village Idiot and Sin Redemption and they have obviously put a lot of time and money into turning it into a more upscale pub. The décor is slightly gothic with lots of chandeliers and sconces, but the atmosphere is still warm and inviting. It was very busy on the night of our dinner, with lots of students from nearby UofT filling two floors, along with several groups there for business dinners. In just a few months it seems to have developed a strong clientele.<br/ <br/ The wine list surprised me. While it is on the lower end of the scale price-wise (a smart choice for a pub near a university), there was an eclectic and interesting mix. It seemed that while they chose to go with wines that were affordable by the glass, they had thought about what worked well with the menu. There were the expected German Rieslings and heavy reds, but also a nice mix of regions and varietals. I was surprised to see KWV’s Café Culture (a mix of coffee, chocolate and Pinotage) available by the glass. While that one is not for everyone’s tastes, it’s nice to see Prenup taking a chance with a unique selection. With a student-heavy clientele, that makes good sense to me. <br/ <br/ I've been here twice now and it's a nice option for after work drinks or a fun evening at the pub.

I visited in Dec. 2014 for a media tasting. <br/ <br/ This was a U of T central hangout with tons of students even on a weeknight.<br/  <br/ The 2 storey restaurant has a bar on both floors, some fancy seats and gorgeous chandeliers. Don't forget to check out their cool wall of beer bottles. <br/ <br/ The stand out of the restaurant is that they offer over 70 beers on tap from all over the world. Out of the offerings I tried, the top 3 things I would recommend are: <br/ <br/ 1. The Wurst Salad with sliced sausages, tomato, garlic, parsley, dill pickles, marinated with olive oil and German mustard. I love my meat, and this was a tasty way to incorporate into a salad to make it hearty and filling.<br/ <br/ 2. The Mussels of the Day with a sweet chili tomato sauce, topped with green onions. I enjoyed the tomato broth accompanying the plump mussels.<br/ <br/ 3. The tiramisu was the highlight of my meal as it was ultra creamy and really hit the spot after all the savoury dishes.

Awesome place. Lots of taps and great chicken drumsticks.

Croque Monsieur. Filling dinner or late afternoon snack. Perfect combination of salty and sweet.
