Up Yer Kilt Pub & Club

Me and my parents found this place by chance. My parents are in their mid 70's and are British as am I. Up Yer kilt is in a little strip mall with east Indian food stores, pizza place's and another small night club. My dad spotted the sign as we drove by (he's got a nose for sniffing pubs out). Not what you would expect in this area. Does not look very big from the outside. Wow !! that's what we said when we walked in. Its a small pub only about 20' wide by 50' deep i would guess, (didn't have a tape measure), I would call it a true British/Scottish/Irish pub, not a bar or jock sports bar or restaurant. ( they do have a bunch of TVs on with soccer and what not if your into that). Jason the one bartender has been there forever, really nice guy. The pints are cheap in opinion, under $6 for an import for the ones I drank (about $7 or$ 9 at any where else decent that I have been). We were there I believe on a Friday and had a huge fish & chip plate for about $10 (special), the tarter sauce was crappy but the main part (chips & fish) was great especially for $10. Has a large sit up bar but we usually sit on the large raised padded bench's with resin covered tables with old newspaper clippings & pics glued to them, supported by chunks of tree trunk and the cross foot rests are wrapped in some tartan fabrics. That way we can watch the many locals that come and go and see all the nick-nacks around the room The decor is fantastic, just like the pubs I have seen in the UK & Scotland. Full of kilts, old English baby prams, pictures and what ever else the owner found to nail to the wall. Every time I go there I see something that I missed last time. If your thirsty and what a nice pint I would definitely recommend it. Unfortunately we live 4 hours north of this pub if not it would be a regular hangout for us. we go there every time we are In Toronto area. We are also pub owners ourselves and this review is truthful in every way ( not written by a friend or owner)

My Co-Worker and I visited this place recently, and it was great! The service was excellent, quick and honest. The prices were also excellent and the food was made to order. Jason does an excellent job as a one man show, and the regulars were there in numbers.

4 of us went there - so busy, there was nowhere to sit. Wife needed to sit so we left. Owner caught us in the parking lot and said he would find us seats even if he needed to remove someone from them. He got us 4 seats and a free round of tequilla for us. Swear to god.

Smaller pub, but excellent atmosphere.
