I love Yellowknife even at its worst. This place is Yellowknife at its best. Good service, great food wonderful experience. Having traveled up here lots over the past decade food and beer were never at the forefront. Things have changed. Tomato soup was awesome, fried chicken burger kept up as well and I am huge fan of coffee milk stout and theirs didn't disappoint. Thick creamy and tons of coffee and putting it on nitro was the perfect choice. Was my wife's first dinner in Yellowknife and a perfect combo of northern charm and big city quality .

Even though I only gave one star, the food and atmosphere are actually great (4-5 stars for sure!) and it is a favourite spot for after-work drinks and food in town. However, IMO, there is something off with the beer. Admittedly I do not know what in the beer making-process has gone wrong, and I wonder if the owners themselves have any concerns. In any event, I can no longer drink the beer as it has such a terrible effect the next day, even if I have consumed only one or two pints. I also have noticed that it tastes different one day to the next (even with the same beer) and it sometimes gives off unusual smells or after tastes. It seems like a chemistry issue... I may be wrong about this but perhaps the beer-makers would benefit from consulting with a brew master, etc.? I am told that the people making the beer there are self-taught which, in this case, seems to make us part of the experiment. I mean no disrespect - and otherwise like the place a lot - but it seems like more could be done to improve the beer. Here's hoping to the improvement of local craft beers in Yellowknife.

The food was great! I ordered a steak (rare) that was perfect! The side was strange to me but good. I think it was oats with beer and molasses reduction with roasted veggies on top. I had no problem finishing it, it was tasty! The bartenders and wait staff are the real wonder to watch, easily floating into conversation between childhood friends, regulars, new to town folks and vacationers. Top notch service all around, prompt, efficient and friendly. Definitely my spot from now on in Yellowknife

A definitely must. YUM! A friendly, efficient spot with great atmosphere and rugged decor, very much like Yellowknife. I had their Daily Soup with my beef burger, and the subtle peanut butter spread was a very pleasant surprise, if not unusual. The menu is pretty vast, so it’s unfortunate I won’t be able to try their other offerings during my short visit to YK. Our waitress was very helpful and attentive, making sure we had our coffees filled. She even helped us call a taxi. Would love to be back again!
