    We were at Darcy McGee's after an event at the NAC. We were seated immediately and the waitstaff were quick to offer drinks, they were delivered in a timely fashion and then our food order was taken. We didn't wait long for the Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese with side caesar and Fish Tacos with side house salads to arrive. The food was very tasty and the perfect amount, not huge platefuls, just the perfect amounts.

    Perfect for a workday casual lunch. Lovely and awesome service! We were able to sit outside on a summer’s afternoon and the ambience was energetic. Awesome value on the meals and drinks too. ☀️

    It was very busy for a midsummer Tuesday around 5:00 -right before an event at the NAC (across the street). We had reservations and everything was wonderful - delivered in a timely manner. 2nd time there for dinner before an event at the NAC (great menu) and will be back.

    Overall good experience- 2 friends happy with their food - I ordered Mac and cheese - not that good - really greasy. Our waiter was great and we enjoyed the atmosphere. I’d go Bach and order traditional pub food.

    It was not enjoyable. We were placed downstairs at the bottom stairs. There was no views and no live band. Service was not good. Our order was wrong several times and we did not receive one of our drinks. Our waitress avoided our area many times and had too many tables to care for. I would not recommend this pub. There are much better service ones out n By-ward Market and down Stark Street.
