This is a classic diner style venue from 1944! Food is competent, comforting and tasty. Decent beer and wine selection along with some fun cocktails if that’s your wicket. We were entertained by a sole guitar/singer act with a contemporary alt jam. There are other artists and jazz music on different days. Staff are efficient friendly and fun. A great casual venue for food drink and music. Wonderful central location, inside feels a world away from Yonge & Bloor. Cheers!
