lil' hops tavern

The meat at Lil’ Hops Tavern was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. However, the fries were underwhelming; they were undercooked and tasted raw, which was disappointing. The contrast between the excellent meat and the poorly prepared fries was noticeable. I hope they can improve the quality of their fries to match the high standard of their meat dishes. It has potential to be a great dining experience with a little more attention to detail! Service was great ! 😊

Amazing all around, had the halibut fish and oysters. The fish is fresh, flakey and the batter is perfectly crispy with no soggy spots. The fish comes with an entire half lemon which I love, and the batter doesn’t upset the stomach or over take the fish. The oysters come with fresh horseradish and a hot sauce made in house, very delicious! They have deals for oysters on Wednesday as well. Great selection of wines and a very knowledgeable bar tender, shout out to Luke. I’ve been coming here once a week the past few months and have yet to be disappointed!

I came in with a friend and we ordered avacado toast. The bread was soggy, overall neither one of us liked it - but when we told the waitress she did absolutely nothing to rectify this not did she take them off the bill. Service was slow and rarely do I remember being displeased enough to complain about food quality, how could you let us walk out having paid over 50 brunch for nothing. Had to eat elsewhere after.

We’ve only been here for drinks at the bar but we’ll always come back. They have great elaborate cocktails that you’d find downtown on king st. But not for downtown prices. The bartender/mixologist Luke is a craftsman and also really great to talk too! This is the only place I trust to order a Manhattan off menu and get it perfectly prepared. We’ll be back to have a sit down dinner.

Enjoyed a delicious brunch and an AMAZING bloody caesar on their terrace. Will definitely be back!

It had a nice interior, but the service wasn't good. It took 25 minutes for someone to come and take the drink orders. He poured some of it on the table though. We chose 2 starters, and they said they ran out of both. Took another 45 minutes, and the server came to inform us that they had run out of chickens but they handled it and offered a salad for the delay finally got our dishes after 1 hour and 10 minutes and it was just OK nothing special.

Loved it. Wonderful flavours. Cozy. The parsnip fries were great and not at all what I expect from parsnip. Have visited close to a dozen times over three years. Great every time.

This was one of the best dinners we've ever had. My husband and daughter and I opted for the Chefs Tasting special. A selection of choices made by the chef, with some input from us through our server asking us what we like generally. It was $50 a person (reg$55) but it also included a drink and dessert and it was served family style. Let me tell you, you will not be disappointed. So much good quality food! And the servers were all fantastic. Wonderful place with a nice higher end vibe. The patio was also full. I can't say enough about the food and that they try very hard to please by tailoring the items you receive to things that you indicated you would enjoy. We will definitely be back!! Check the pics. It was 10 courses in all! Yes 10!
