What a great place this is! Especially if you want to go to a pub but have kids. You can take them! Lots for all to enjoy. Got the tunes, the great pub atmosphere with a twist. You can relax, have a drink, watch some sports while the kids yonge or old can run off and have some fun. They have table tennis, a small court to shoot some hoops, arcade games, etc. Can't go wrong. Didn't eat while there, but seeing the food others were having, it looked good. One thing for sure is, I will be back.

Overall, it was a great first experience at this bar! The service was a little on the slower side, although it did seem understaffed and it was quite busy. However, anytime we got service it was very friendly and our server was very knowledgeable with the menu.

The various appetizers that our group ordered were delicious and brought out quite quickly. The quantity was also quite good for the prices charged.

The atmosphere was very laid back with mostly 80s/90s music playing. We didn't play the arcade games this time, but they gave the atmosphere a nice touch. The washrooms were clean and so was the rest of the bar. It was a great choice for a get together with friends.

Overall, a very good experience and we would return again!

Visiting Toronto for the first time (from Pennsylvania) and originally planned to eat at Hot House, but that place was MOBBED for their Sunday brunch, so we walked around a bit and picked Duke's. Glad we did! Wifey liked her salad, and my chicken sandwich was good. Server/Bartender Mike was very nice, and he was attentive to my wife's food allergy. My Old Fashioned was well made.
