Caesars

Rated this place:

Best spicy caesars in the city that I have experienced thus far... many places serve them but don't actually know how to make them... they do... follow one up with one of their burgers... also excellent

Turn it down

Rated this place:

The Burger is presented nicely - but not nearly as good as the Drake Burger you can get next door at the same price.

And, what is it with the music?

I feel very crotchety complaining about this - but in a restaurant with no dance floor, why do they insist on keeping the music at a volume that silences conversation?

Good for beers and cooktails - and other short visits. A little grating to stay for dinner.

The Beaconsfield

Whenever I want to go find out how to dress – I go to the Beaconsfield. There’s always some remarkably cool chick outside having a butt with a slam dunk outfit on. Inside – is loud and vivacious on a Thursday to Saturday night. The music is always just right – and the bartenders look like they should be posing for American Apparel ads. This is the perfect place to go if you have had a bad day at work – and just want to drink, drink, drink and be silly. It’s also a great place to meet people. I don’t know why but some bars are much better for this than others. I have never gone to the Beaconsfield – without rubbing shoulders with a stranger and then chatting. Now – this doesn’t mean you always want to befriend this person, but it does always make for good entertainment.P.S - their burgers are also really good. Yum.

Sunday pint

Rated this place:

The Beaconsfield

A fairly small bar in the middle of the Quest; it’s usually overshadowed by its evil neighbour, The Drake Hotel. This does not bother me, I assure you. The Beaconsfield is a great place to grab a pint Sunday night after a hectic weekend. The Sunday DJ is beyond awesome as well. His name is ‘Your Boy Brian’ & the last time I was there he played New Kids on the Block, Radiohead, The Cars, Biggie, Bloc Party, Mickey Avalon & Feist. He wins.
