Stout Irish Pub
Posted: Sun Jan 16, 2011 11:33 pm
New place just opened this week.
Stout Irish Pub, opened by a couple of ex-Irish macro pub staffers. Feels like a Irish pub "concept" but certainly isn't like the others.
20 taps, about 15 Ontario craft + McAuslan, Big Rock and Murphy's. No Guinness. Wide range of differing Ontario craft breweries represented. Cask on the way. Predominately light ales & lagers from Ontario craft but there is GL Canuck and Dead Elephant. Hopefully beer menu evolves into more interesting OCB offerings. Full food menu.
Three distinct areas comprise the space - a lower, den-like area with fireplace at the window, upper bar area with high tables and back dining area. Patio in the springtime. Some nice touches such as burning peat and an old piano from one of the proprietor's family members who also ran a pub. TV's in the upper areas but not in the den. Very comfortable spot and could see time passing by quite easily.
In the space formerly occupied by a Brass Taps but supposedly been empty for a couple of years. Located at 221 Carlton Street East, just before Parliament.
A promising place in a part of the city that doesn't have much in the way of craft beer. Great to see.
