The Wurst Bar

"We came here on a Saturday afternoon and sat on the back patio outside. Service was slow despite the bar being pretty empty but they were super nice and the food was phenomenal. I got the Italian wurst with sauer kraut and it was the best bratwurst I've ever had. Also got the poutine tots which were 9/10. They were missing something - salt or MSG or just a little something I can't place but they were SO good otherwise! Will definitely come back!"

"TLDR: THE WORST BAR LIVES UP TO ITS NAME, PLEASE TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE Server had an attitude problem before most of my party showed up. Sending me dirty glances like it was such a big inconvinience for some reason. They had a scowl and were very short and uninviting while taking orders, was not patient or kind with me at all as I was seeking help finding filling vegan options... When all our food came, my grilled cheese looked like two pieces of bread resting on top of eachother. I had asked about the dish and the server explained with much dismay what the ingredients were and the portion size, so I was pretty surprised when I opened up the sandwich and saw a partially melted, single piece of cheese. (See photo) The "grilled" cheese was completely cold. Not even a little bit warm, btw. The server was so rude with everything before, I didnt have the courage to send the food back, instead I just asked for some more cheese. They didnt offer the cheese which came in the dish, so they brought out two cold slices of mozzarella on a plate. They didnt ask how the food was to any of us, never asked if we needed anything more, just left and didnt come back until they brought the check. Well she was frustrated to have to go back and separate the bill after she brought us only one (seriously why is it such a hassle, if its a large group, ask first...such a rookie move) and my bill had the extra cheese as an extra charge. I had to wait for a long time after my friends had left for our server to come back out...they were mysteriously absent after they collected everyone else's check...so after talking to another one of the staff to try and get a hold of our server, and waiting some more...I had to explain and stand my ground about the cheese situation...and of course the server couldnt do anything, they said I had to talk with the manager...but they were busy...so I had to wait even longer. When the manager finally came over, with irritation (honestly why do people choose to work in the service industry if they have issue with being of basic help? This is not hard, and YES we can ALL read your body language, and hear tones of voice, none of you are fooling anyone but yourselves) I had to yet again muster up the courage to defend myself, and didnt have the nerve to ask for the whole meal to be comped, but I said I for sure was not paying the extra cheese charge. Soooo I waited more time for the manager to slowly bring up a new bill, I paid cash, of course an inconvinience and they had to walk somewhere else for change (who the hell doesnt keep change on them in front of house, other than the host?) so of course I waited again... I'm pretty sure I only left what coins I was brought for a tip, and even that pained me. So more than 20! minutes after my friends left, I finally met up with them in time to miss all the conversation and say goodbye. I was also still very much hungry. I made myself a meal when I got home. Why anyone eats out these days is beyond me. Yet another review explaining how the Worst Bar earned its name."

"Hip Saloon offers a delightful and adventurous culinary journey with its unique array of homemade sausage flavors, ranging from the familiar to the exotic. From bison to alligator, each bite is a flavorful exploration that tantalizes the taste buds. The addition of craft beer enhances the experience, although the beer menu being exclusively on a board might pose a slight challenge in making a selection. The convenience of street paid parking is offset by the perk of free parking after 6pm, allowing patrons to relax and enjoy their meal without rushing. The staff’s friendly demeanor and prompt service contribute to a pleasant dining atmosphere. A highlight of the visit was the exceptional quality of fries – a true treat for the palate. Hip Saloon strikes a balance between novelty and comfort, making it a recommended spot for those seeking a memorable and satisfying dining outing."

"The vegan chick-fu sandwich was horrible, flavorless and weird texture. The buffalo chicken sandwhich was sub par and bland. All the food was pretty bland and not appetizing. Our drinks were flat and alochol watered down. Very loud atmosphere. Staff were kind and i could tell they were under staffed. Slow service."

"A cool bar-restaurant with industrial decor. They have a nice menu of various sausages, salads and sandwiches. They also have specialty drinks and a nice selection of draft beers. The only issue was that we were there on a Sunday night and they were out of several of the best sausage choices. I had a brisket burger and it was delicious. They offer four different types of mustard. They are all great. (I just wish they were labled) I will definately go back."
