Watched a soccer game here! Drinks were good, and staff was very nice.

The place is fantastic. Good music they have a jukebox! Sport screens all over and drinks! Good place to be. The food options are not the best but they let us bring a pizza from next door. Very good place. 👍

This is a gem. We arrived early. The bar man was lovely and very knowledgeable. The range of alcohol was brilliant. The music was lively and upbeat. We had a fab night meeting, lots of new people. Highly recommended 👌

Cool pub to stop by once in a while. It was super crowded when we got there but that didn’t deter us from getting drinks at the bar and seeing the games on their tvs. They don’t have a lot of drinks on tap, but the cider they had was really good. They also have a two drink minimum for credit cards.

It was a quiet Sunday at this overpriced restaurant in the city. The bathroom setup was unusual, but I understand. The wine tasted washed, and four shots cost $75, which I found excessive. It’s a good spot for a quick and easy meal, but expect to pay more.

I LOVE NORBERT! I AM OBSESSED. <3.

ID Scanner at this overcrowded bar is broken. My 21+ gf got rejected at the door by the rudest bouncer I've ever encountered. Dude just kept insisting the ID was fake. Fire this guy and replace your scanner.

0 stars. was never yelled at like that by anyone in my adult life but was yelled at by the bartender from across the bar in front of everyone for being too slow to order a drink. if you think the bartender was being “kind” to us roll the security tape. been to hundreds of bars in the city and have never been spoken to like that in my entire life anywhere. per the reviews seems like this happens often. sad

got called a “horrible person” by the bartender because I was waiting for the rest of my group to arrive before ordering a drink. There were plenty of open tables and seats around the bar, so we weren’t “taking up space for paying customers” we were waiting to see what the rest of our group wanted to order when they arrived. Bartender proceeded to talk rudely about me to customers sitting at the bar and when I approached her I was told I need to “grow up” and I’m a “horrible person” yikes! EDIT IN RESPONSE TO OWNERS RESPONSE: Nothing about the way we were approached was "Kind". The bartender rushed over to our table and told us to order at the bar and if we weren't going to order anything then leave in an aggressive tone. Could've dealt with that - whatever- and then she proceeds to talk negatively about us to customers sitting at the bar, 5ft away from us where I can hear her being rude and saying nasty things about us. Your staff escalated the situation. I suggest if escalating a situation is not your goal, that staff member should probably learn to not talk badly about people who don't order fast enough for her and scream at them calling them horrible people. Pretty unfortunate that this seems to be a recurring issue that hasn't been resolved.

Unfortunately, the thin, older (probably 40s) white bartender with black hair was extremely rude. Nothing was kind about how she approached our group and continued to talk rudely about customers and rush us out. If having an attitude and telling people to leave because you think they take too long to order something is kind then we have different definitions of that word. It seems like a pattern, as many reviews state the bartenders are rude. Hope you can get this figured out.

Really disappointed by the feisty red-headed bartender - I live up the street on Leroy and used to frequent VT. My friend and I were bar hopping and she said she wanted to stop by VT since she's never been...we wanted a break from drinking, so we asked the bartender for two waters. He said, "Wait, you just want water?" We said, "Yes, can we get two waters?" Then he snapped at us, "If you're not drinking and you just want water then why are you here?" I told him that I just wanted to show my friend the place we weren't intending on staying long. And then I said, "Do we have to order alcohol?" Then he said, "You can get club sodas it's just $4"... I told him money wasn't an issue and that he's being difficult. My friend said, "Can we just get water?" He said, "No, you're being difficult." Lol is he okay? I've gotten alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks at VT in the past - I've gotten water, too. If he was concerned with us using up bar space and sitting on the stools then he could have said, "bar seats are for paying customers - I'll grab you two water" but he didn't, instead he had an attitude and lacked professionalism....after much back and forth, he said "Fine. I'll get you two water, but ..." At that point we were disgusted and said forget it. In the 4 years that we've gone out in the city - we have NEVER experienced such rudeness. Mind you the bar was packed with people drinking...if you're concerned with money/tips then VT should include a 2 drink minimum bar policy or something for patrons....

Rude and unwilling to listen to genuine advice. They kicked our friends out after 15 minutes of walking into the bar despite 4/9 members getting drinks along with me keeping my tab open. The bartender (or manager or owner, he never specified) was absolutely awful. Talking badly about all of us despite us buying drinks. Not to mention he kicked our friends out with 4 minutes left in the ECF, where I likely would have purchased drinks for my friends if my preferred team won. Serious advice: if you’re so worried about rent have a head charge at the door. It makes no sense to kick out people from the bar who aren’t behaving poorly and are there to enjoy the night with their friends.
