Did not order food so can’t comment on that but we had the worst service here. Our server Laura was not warm or friendly greeting us, brought us dirty glassware (see lipstick), I had to ask for ice water three times (and mention it was my third time asking) before finally getting a glass of ice water. Our server was more concerned with sitting and flirting with another staff member than she was cleaning up the dirty messy patio or providing us with any type of service. Appalled this is acceptable at any establishment, let alone on a patio facing a public street. Would not come back here and would not recommend anyone who wants decent service to come here. Hopefully an off-day for this young woman.

Venturing into The Flatiron: A Firkin Pub for the first time, my boyfriend and I embarked on a culinary journey that left us with mixed but mostly positive impressions. While my boyfriend opted for the classic comfort of mac and cheese, I decided to dive into the beloved British staple of fish and chips. The mac and cheese, while enjoyable with its blend of cheeses, didn't quite reach the heights of culinary excitement. It was good but lacked that extra oomph to make it truly memorable. On the other hand, my experience with the fish and chips was nothing short of revelatory. The crispy batter encasing the juicy fish was fried to perfection, striking the delicate balance between crunch and tenderness. Each bite was a symphony of flavours, accompanied by fries that were equally satisfying. In fact, I dare say it was the best fish and chips I've ever had! However, a minor disappointment came in the form of the lack of complimentary veggies. While understandable given the pub's focus on bar food, a little bit of greenery could have elevated the overall dining experience. The Flatiron: A Firkin Pub offers a mixed bag of culinary delights. While the fish and chips stole the show with its crispy perfection, other dishes like the mac and cheese fell slightly short of expectations. Nevertheless, for a cozy pub experience with hearty fare, it's worth a visit. Overall, a solid 3 out of 5 stars from us.

The food was bad, the service was okay (very nice, I do not blame them for the food or the kitchen), the location is excellent but the table was wobly (our poor server had to wedge coasters under it to keep it afloat) or full of cobwebs (we moved table) We had the cheese spinach dip, the cob salad, and the Caesar salad with a side of chicken. The food took a long time to come, they forgot the added chicken but ended up taking the salad off the bill. Bottom line is the food is not good.

We went there on Saturday afternoon. We got the VIP Platter to share. It is a really good portion and tastes good. We ordered two different coquetel drinks, and both were delightful. The beer was very cold. The service was good.

We went for drinks. Their own brew tasted good and was better priced than the others. Their menu is accessed by QR code. We didn't find anything exciting on the menu and went off in search of it.

Extremely hospitable management & staff. Went to attend the Santa Clause Parade at the pub & loved the experience. The location is a prime location. Parking around and lots of things to enjoy. And totally worth the visit. They had seafood & vegetarian options as the meats/ chicken was not halal. The food served was delicious & snacks were served with lots of pleasant smiles. The hot chocolate was a delight for the kids and they enjoyed being there too. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality. Enjoyed :- Nachos Vege Platter Had Fish Tacos 🌮 Vegetarian Spring Rolls & Samosa’s 🫔 Hot Chocolate ☕️

Love the exterior of the building. I always wondered what was inside and to my delight a restaurant was underneath! The food was fantastic, the servers were so friendly, and it was nice quiet atmosphere. Options to sit outside or inside where the decor is British Invasion with lots of screens playing sports.

Always a good place to hang out with some friends or coworkers! I highly recommend their VIP platter as it gives you all the best stuff on their snack menu. My friends also really enjoyed the nachos! If you don't drink alcohol, they don't really have a lot of options besides a regular soda. Service was good but a little bit slow!
