    I made this reservation a week before hand and my whole family was so excited to try this restaurant. I had already previewed the menu online and had a good idea of what I was going to order. We were immediately greeted upon arrival and were shown to our seats. We got there in time for happy hour, which is supposed to be half price drinks. They are cheaper, but they are not half price. Drinks came out pretty quickly and were decent. When it came time to order our food the server informed us that pretty much half the menu was unavailable….. of course the two appetizers I had picked out were not available as well as the steak sirloin also not available… like I said, literally half of the menu they did not have. If I hadn’t already ordered my drinks, I would’ve got up and left… I ended up getting the over priced pizza. It was fine… not memorable. Pizza Hut would have sufficed at half the cost. The ambiance was super boring. My whole family was disappointed. Oh, they also had no oysters, which is half the reason we came here. As they advertise it online. So in conclusion, I wouldn’t waste your time coming here. I’m surprised this restaurant has made it this far. I don’t see it lasting too much longer at this rate. We spent over $400 and got Wendy’s a couple hours later.

    Unfortunately a number of items on the menu was NOT available. For a pescatarian there was only one seafood option.

    Have always wanted to try this pub and it’s a great close location to Scotiabank arena. I had the fish and chips, the fish was good size but the batter was too hard and greasy at same time. I peeled most of the batter off. Others in the group had the chicken burger and hamburger - said they were ok. Another had appetizers - chicken bites, Brussels sprouts and rosemary fries - they enjoyed all these dishes. Service was decent.

    Had a lovely time at the Bar Humbug Pop-Up for The Walrus Pub and Beer Hall. It was cozy, the service was great, and I definitely felt the holiday spirit. The decorations were so cute and inviting! I enjoyed the festive drinks too!

    The bar humbug experience was generally disappointing. The festival cocktails were over complicated and not well thought out. The location seemed like an after thought and of a generally unused space. Also disappointed there wasn’t access to the entire menu and happy hour.

    The fish and chips could surely be better. We had gone for lunch and the food overall wasn't that great

    Went for a date night and had a great time! Service was great, ambience was nice, and the food came out in a reasonable time and was delicious. Would definitely go back again.

    Had a very good peppercorn striploin steak. Angela was a great server and we could enjoy a good conversation as it was not loud
