The Loose Moose is a lively bar in downtown Toronto favoured by locals and out-of-towners since 1989. Their fondness may have something to do with its beer selection. After all, with over 65 varieties on tap, repeat visits are kind of a given, especially for lovers of Canadian craft. Beer isn't the only thing we have to brag about. With inventive plates, generous portions and the cleanest taps in the city, this is a bar you’ll likely come back to — plan or no plan.

    We ate there with our grandchildren before seeing Lion King and it was great. Good for kids and close to theatre. We all enjoyed our meals.

    I’ve now dined here a few times and can attest to their consistency of providing a great dining experience. Food has always been good, as has the service, but the manager (Victoria) really helped to make this evenings experience a pleasant one. I’d recommend The Joneses if your looking for place with solid drinks or food. It’s not too fussy and has very comfortable ambiance.

    We had a reservation on a Saturday morning and were seated immediately. Our food was fresh and flavorful. The holiday drinks were cute and tasty. Unfortunately, we were sat near the patio where they kept opening the door to tend to the customers outside making us cold. Had we been asked if we had a preference on where to sit I would have given them 5 stars in every category.

    Food was amazing, and the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. Drinks were fantastic, overall 10/10 experience. Must try the polenta fries, Brie brûlée, an amazing burger, pumpkin mac and cheese, and the beef tartare. Everything was outstanding! We’ll definitely be back!
