We all work in downtown and were looking for a simple, cozy atmosphere to unwind without the need for a trendy hotspot. The pub had a laid-back vibe, reminiscent of hanging out in a friend's basement with a pool table and bar. They offered a variety of popular beer brands in bottle, half pint, and pint sizes. I enjoyed a Sleeman's Honey Brown and a pint of Harps. For food, we ordered Calamari ($9.95) and a Combo Platter ($39.95) which included pizza, fries, breaded shrimp, samosas, and chicken balls. The platter was split into two plates for sharing among our group of five. While the calamari was average, the samosas and pizza were quite delicious. The samosas had a nice spice to them and the pepperoni on the pizza was tasty. The relaxed atmosphere allowed us to unwind, reminisce, and joke around as if we were back in high school.

Unfortunately, the fries were cold so I requested a fresh batch. The carrots were not very fresh either, indicating that my meal had been waiting for a while. My companion, Gord, ordered the Buffalo Chicken Crunch, which he had tried before. He thought it was okay, but mentioned that the Thousand Island dressing was a bit overwhelming. Our server, Joanna, took good care of us during our meal. The atmosphere at The Pub reminded me of a cozy legion, nothing too fancy but comfortable.

I've only had wings there.  This evening I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Crunch sandwich without lettuce and no slaw. Gord's had it before but I haven't.  It was really good and I'd get it again. Gord ordered fish and chips. He gave me a small piece of the fish and it was really good. Other than charging us for another table's meal and a beer, our servers took good care of us.
