The Bottom Line

1st time guest. As someone who lives and breathes sports, this was a treat! Arrived a tad late for food, but watched the World Series, Leafs and Habs games simultaneously. Coors Banquet bottles (and far cheaper than Toronto prices) was a great surprise. Fave bar beer. Can't fathom any previous reviewer going negative on the service as it was perfect. Chelsea the hostess was terrific: prompt, attentive, and smarter than a tree full of owls. The tender was very attentive too; didn't wait one second for service, despite a reasonable crowd. Dozens of TVs, all league standings posted, and you get a genuine vibe of the regular customers' love for this place. Wish we had this in Oakville. Hope to make it back downtown again soon; will make re-visiting a priority. Keep up the great operation.

Took my mom to her 2nd annual meeting with her old college friends and yeah had a blast some of them went on to be TV personalities if you live in The GTA you've seen someone there in TV Before. One is a hockey hall of fame member! So yeah great food nachos were dope and 4 double martinis a bloody Ceasar 6 pints and calamari for 100 bucks not bad especially in the heart if Toronto. Will be going again after a baseball game for sure this year dope place attractive people! Attentive and experienced staff... looks like inflation missed this place I was shocked by the fact it was so... well, inexpensive compared to a bar in like Pickering or Whitby. Great for a date and nice atmosphere very loud however not ideal for kids or people with anxiety that haven't yet mastered the art of accepting it and everyone has anxiety it's a fact of life... but not for those who are bothered by loud noises

Came here for a ChelseaFC game. Disappointed that CFC lost but the experience at The Bottom Line was great! Service was a bit slow to start but I understood that The Bottom Line opened up earlier than regular hours just for this event. Staff were friendly and were really trying to get things out in a timely fashion. Food was 4/5. I had the Toronto Special, which was on their CFC menu for the morning. We also got nachos, wings, and an onion tower. Both were good, I felt like the bread for the avocado toast needed to be a bit crunchier, and maybe some cheese on there! Overall, would go back for another CFC game! Hopefully they’ll win next time!!

Food - The food was only OK. I ordered the warm mushroom salad and it came with no dressing on it. Once I was brought the dressing, everything tasted OK but not great. My husband ordered the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and he said it was also only OK. The two friends that were with us ordered a chicken Caesar salad, as well as a hamburger. everyone agreed the food was just OK. Nothing really that special. Service - The servers were all very polite and friendly. However, there were a lot of errors between not getting dressing, bringing us the wrong drinks, forgetting things. So the service was a little bit troubling. Ambiance - The ambience was suitable for what it is supposed to be. It’s a sports pub and it looks exactly like that. It was very busy right before the leafs game so it had good energy. Bathrooms - The bathrooms reminded me of being in Europe, but not in a good way. They are so unbelievably tiny, which could be manageable however they looked. very dim and not overly tidy. Plus they were extremely cold. I am aware that they don’t have a lot of space to work with, but they could still spruce up these bathrooms. Other - The margaritas were pretty delicious so I have to give them credit for that. Plus they’re not an extremely expensive place considering it’s Toronto.

I actually don’t even want to write a review because this place is sort of like, a best kept secret?? It’s the PERFECT spot to grab a bite to eat before the game. Most people usually get off at Union and head west towards the bars down that way… but if you just go a little further east, like, a 5 minute walk east… Here lies The Bottom Line. And man oh man, have you found your new sports bar. Very spacious, so they fit lots of people and tables in, some standing room, a bar area and a dining area, clean washrooms (can’t speak for the men’s but the ladies is always very clean), and most importantly: delicious food. I’m usually a creature of habit and get the same thing every time from restaurants (if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, amirite?) but I always get something different here because I truly have never ever been let down by the dishes here. This past time I had the wrap, it was great! I got chicken in mine and they LOADED it full, super tasty and filling. I’ve also had the tenders, burger & sliders. All absolutely fantastic (that burger was NO JOKE!). We always get calamari to start, it’s always perfect and the garlic dip they serve with it is delightful! Definitely recommend making a rezzo, the place gets pretty dang busy on game night!

Came with work colleagues for a meal after event. They did a set meal with 4 choices and apps. I got chicken schnitzel and it was huge and tasty. All my colleagues enjoyed their meals Guacamole was tasty and bocconcini & tomato was perfection.

Visited Bottom Line with a few friends, had reservations so we were seated right away. Our waitress was really friendly and knowledgeable. Would’ve gave 4 stars but found it unfortunate that the venue ran out of ingredients to make pizza during an event night (basketball game). Vegetarian main options are limited. A really nice sports bar nonetheless but menu can improved. Not rushing back to visit, will have it as a backup option.
