ime for strong drink? The Local does not disappoint. More or less a typical pub serving ales and finger foods, there’s a few things that distinguish it from other beer and wings joints. The swirling manicured evergreens and black slated wood frontage contrast well with its ostentatious golden lettering. Pushing the pub-fare envelope, oddities include blue cheese garlic bread and Cajun meatloaf. There’s also live bluegrass and Celtic music to stomp your feet to, and the confabulations reign supreme to clinking glasses till the wee hours.

Featuring delicious pub fare such as perogies for $7.95 and Quesadillas for $8, you won’t break the bank with these prices. The restaurant hosts typical pub eats, with a twist on modern and unique flavours. For example, the Sexton Stir-Fry combines asian veggies and tofu, served on a bed of rice noodles.

If you’re looking to expand your pub horizons past chicken wings and nachos, why not give The Local a try? I know, we all love our comfort food- but since they feature a combination of new and old favourites, no one will be pouting in the corner. Not even Baby.
