  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Great for outdoor dining

Allen's is reminiscent of a New York City saloon from ages past. The tin ceiling, the wood floors and the cozy old bar make it an experience in itself. Yet Allen's also has a fabulous menu that is sure to inspire and delight.

With more than 300 kinds of whisky, more than 100 wines and over 140 beers, it will satisfy your need for liquid refreshment. The food is pub fare improved thanks to the reliance on organic and locally raised meats and careful preparation. Burgers, salads, soups and so much more await those who pay a visit to Allen's.

    Always enjoy Allen's - in all aspects. The open turkey sandwich today at lunch (post US Thanksgiving) was fab. Anthony is the best Maitre d'! But the front door opening and closing made the booths in the front chilly. Will be back as usual.
