The Oxley

We came here for brunch and got the English breakfast and eggs Benedict. The food was okay and a bit pricey considering the eggs Benny didn’t come with any sides. The atmosphere and service were great though. We were seated outside in the back, which had a nice, cozy feel and the service was excellent.

the bartenders were super nice and friendly! some downsides however: they were hosting a private event so the only seating left was at the bar as the patio seats were filled as well. i recommend that you call and ask beforehand for seating arrangements. food was good ("toe rags" dish was surprisingly good despite it's name) & beer was alright, wish it was more chilled though. they also forgot a dish from our order so that was unfortunate.

Nice little spot in Yorkville. Unfortunately, this place is very small and tables are too close together. The volume was so loud in the restaurant we asked to be moved to the front section by the fireplace. I expected prices to reflect the quality of the food but it fell below my expectations. I was excited to try the Scotch Egg which is what I came for but I’ve had better experiences. Even the pigs in a blanket $11 I ordered didn’t manage to improve the experience. Drinks took so long to be delivered despite the fact that we were sitting right in front of the bartender at the bar. To be fair, I didn't try anything else other than the starters so I'll give it another try.

LOVE taking my clients and new tourists to Toronto here. Very classy, old English/Scottish vibes. Their PITHIVIER dish is to die for -- savoury, delicious and keeps you coming back for more. This place is a pub classic for Yorkville-goers with some modern dishes too. Lots of seating outside for patios and positive, fun ambience.

The drinks were delicious but the service was questionable; two different servers were taking our orders and one would continuously scold us for ordering with his co-worker saying it was his table. Don’t blame the customer for internal work conflict! 🤷‍♀️ Would definitely come back bc the drinks and vibe was great, but the internal issues need to be sorted out.
