Reviews for The Auld Spot Pub in Toronto, ON
So lovely to see The Auld Spot back open! Had a great time here a couple weeks ago on a Monday. The staff was incredibly... friendly. Lots of gluten free options on the menu as well, which is always a plus. Ordered the 'Wholesome Root VegetableBurger', with a gluten free bun. Will most definitely be back. Read more
Wandered in on a Wednesday night since I was in the neighbourhood. So impressed - super cozy British isles country house vibe,... great music, awesome food, solid beer list. We had the oysters (fresh and delicious) and house made chips (well seasoned with atouch of kick). Great service. Will be back for a meal next time! Read more
The new Auld Spot didn’t disappoint. New owners have stepped up the menu. Food is at a best in Toronto level, yet this is... still a neighbourhood pub at its core. They’ve given the place a remarkable facelift and the staff made us feel at home. Itwas busy (sat. night), but didn’t feel crowded, or rushed. Food prices are reasonable for the quality and quality IMO, andthey say everything is made in-house. I’ll be back! Read more
The Auld Spot has finally re-opened under new management and it is fantastic!! Decor and seating have been tastefully updated;... the staff were friendly and very attentive; most importantly the food was phenomenal. We had oysters, polenta fries, beetsalad, and burgers. The oysters are a steal so have some before your meal. The burger really blew my mind. I was expectingyour standard pub burger, but this one was on another level. It was juicy and flavourful with a healthy serving of crispy friesand some kind of mildly spicy dipping sauce. Don't hesitate, check it out! Read more
Ok, hold up, this pub has legit good food. Grading on a curve or not, we really enjoyed our meal. - Ploughman: A shareable dish... with 3 types of meat (that day it was duck prosciutto, sausage and ham), 2 types of cheese (blue and cheddar), veggie scotchegg, jams (prune), house pickles, and grilled bread. So yeah, hearty. Standouts were the veggie scotch egg (interesting taste),sausage (properly smoky), and the prune jam (really fresh). Not a fan of the duck prosciutto, though kudos for trying to elevstethe dish. - Salmon Eggs Benny: Generous serving of salmon (which was fresh enough), benny done well (chewy but not overly so),spinach a bit limp, good cut on the fries. We added a side aioli to dip the fries in. - Pecan Pie with Toffee Icecream: Homemadeicecream was not overly sweet, so it complemented the pie well. Super generous amount of pecan. The star to me was the crust,which they infused heavily with cinnamon. Food was a bit pricey, but isn't everything these days? Obediah (who's the chef butalso served us) has a great spirit to him. The pub itself is ultra British looking and has a laid back vibe. Will be back to trytheir hot honey wings and buck-a-shuck on Tuesdays! Read more
I've been coming to the Auld Spot for years. Their food is excellent and I have not once had a bad experience with service.... Enjoying their new outdoor seating. The food is a little bit pricy but very good. They have lots of specials throughout the weekso we like to plan our trips around those. The buck a shuck oyster night on Tuesdays is our favourite. We love being able tosupport our favourite local businesses during the pandemic! Read more
This pub doesn’t look like anything special from the outside, but never judge a book by it’s cover. The staff are friendly,... service is efficient and the food was great. The fish and chips were the best fish and chips I’ve found in Toronto. The tartarsauce was a tad spicy and flavourful. The batter was not over done and the oil was clearly fresh. The burger was also fantastic,and a definite recommendation! Read more
Great drink menu, amazing food! Everything tasted so fresh. Prices are amazing too;
