  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Great for craft beers

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.

    We visit Allen’s on a regular basis. This time for the steak festival. Caesar salad was excellent as were the steaks (cooked perfectly) the sides mushrooms and duck fat potatoes were disappointing.

    Celebrated a friend's birthday at Allen's Steak Fest with an early dinner. We both ordered Tanjo Tenderloin, the double baked potato, and an order of mushrooms to share. Our steak was cooked perfectly and the sauce on the mushrooms was divine. We shared a Espresso cheescakw for dessert. Oliver, our server, was both efficient and personsble. At Oliver's suggestion, the host offered to csll us a taxi to get us home in stormy weather. Another wonderful experience at Allen's where both the food and service is always the best!

    This is a very nice place. Went here for the stea festival and it definitely makes me want to come back. No wonder there’s lots of people dining in here. Food is great and despite the steak being dry aged it was reasonably priced. The servers are very nice and attentive. Will definitely visit this place again.

    This was a great Steakfest Valentin's Day dinner. The Porterhouse steak was well aged, done just right as ordered, with the service being top level. An all-round great experience I'd say.
