Firkin on Danforth - Toronto, Ontario

Great service, delicious burgers and the Beer is cold and fairly priced. Cant ask for more from a pub. Especially on the danforth. This qualifies as 5 stars to me.

Stopped in for a quick dinner. With spouse and a child. Did not have high expectations as I know it's bar food. Drinks are on average $15, for a small portion. Food is average. We had fish tacos, burger, chicken fingers and shrimp and calamari appetizer. All very basic. ... Bill for 2 alcoholic drinks, 2 adult meals, 1 kid meal and 1 appetizer with tip was just under $200. Will not be returning even though we local to the area. Kinda disappointed because I would have to have a place in walking distance that served decent bar food. Read more

Thank you to the staff: A man with face tattoo's, who looked like he was on his way out, put down his bag, and escorted us to a seat with a big smile. We walked in with a group of 7 in the middle of what seemed like a very busy ... dinner service, expecting to have a long wait and yet we were served our drinks quickly and our food came about 20-25 minutes after we ordered it. I just wanted to remark to the management that your staff are wonderful people and well trained. I couldn't help but notice the negative reviews and I would like to put it out there: That for a PUB, this is a very well established restaurant, and there was nothing I could possibly think to complain about. Thank you for the good food, prompt and warm service, and the cold drinks. Read more

Great food! Great service! I would have given 5 stars, but I was in there around 1pm with my daughter, and although the music they were playing was fine, it was the uncensored versions, lots of f- bombs and shes very sensitive about it. I get that it's a pub, ... though, so no censorship is needed, but I wouldn't recommend the restaurant for families with kids. Read more

I hate posting poor reviews. People have bad days, so do I. However, my ethics are to tell the truth and let the audience decide. I can only guess at what the problems were and as an ex-Process Improvement Consultant and stating thoughts or conclusions without proper info is not me. Okay, ... we both ordered Sheppard's pie. Both had a massive pile of potatoes (~80%) with the gravy, peas, corn and burger mixture on the bottom was less than 20%. 😞 The Waldorf coleslaw was poor, too much vinegar. We requested the coleslaw in addition to the veggies that came with the dish. This caused our server a fair amount of problems, attempt at saying no however we persisted. The slaw was included on another dish and we where happy to pay extra. In the end the vegetables that were suppose to be on the plate did not arrive. Just the slaw. The mango cucumber Tom Collins was good, however I don't go to bars, so $15 for a drink is hard to swallow. Finally when I shared our disappointment with both Sheppard's pie and the slaw, all I recieved was apologises from our server. No discount or waiving anything. And that was my final straw, and felt it important to leave the review. Read more
