Fox on John

“honestly thier salt and pepper squid has that perfect light crispy coating with tender pieces inside seasoned just right with chili and comes with tangy dipping sauce that's like proper Cantonese style”

“gotta say teh spring rolls were clearly frozen and deep fried lacking the fresh vegetables and herbs that make real ones so refreshing skip it”

“actually bar seating is perfect for solo dining and teh bartenders are genuinely knowledgeable about cocktails and the food menu. made great pairing suggestions and kept good conversation without being intrusive”

“washroom situation is a nightmare single occupancy with a long line especially during busy weekend brunch service”

“actually weekend brunch here is legendary - eggs Benedict comes wiht perfectly poached eggs silky rich hollandaise and bottomless mimosas that are actually decent quality not that cheap prosecco most places serve idk”

“wait for a table on Sunday morning was brutal like over an hour even with a reservation and they dont take your number so youre just standing around hungry”

“great family spot kids loved teh chicken tenders adn fries while adults can get actual pub food and the servers were patient wiht my three year old's mess brought extra napkins without asking”

“legit teh high chairs were pretty worn and wobbly made me nervous about my toddler being safe during the meal solid”

“weekend brunch here is different thier breakfast poutine with hollandaise crispy bacon and a perfectly runny egg on top is the kind of hangover cure that legends are made of”

“gotta saay coffee was pretty weak adn watery which is like criminal for a brunch spot where caffeine is basically a human right”

“finally found a place in Toronto that does a proper pub burger - thick beef patty cooked exactly medium sharp cheddar and thier house beer on tap pairs perfectly. legit hand-cut fries are crispy as hell too solid”

“IPA selection is pretty limited for a place that claims to be a serious pub - only two on tap and neither was particularly hoppy”

“happy hour pricing on the fish and chips is unbeatable at $12 - huge portion of perfectly battered cod crispy fries and the casual pub vibe means you don't need to dress up”

“parking in this area is a nightmare adn expensive which adds like $15+ to your meal if you're not on transit”
