The Edmund Burke in Toronto

The Edmund Burke is a fantastic holiday tradition for us coming to see the Charlie brown christmas show. The food never fails to disappoint, but the service and atmosphere are really special! We had great service from Ashley and crew and really loved the special attention paid to our kids! A really wonderful place for a family to have a fun meal!

Really cool environment to hang and have a drink. Solid food as well.

I like the beers and enviroment. Good customer service but the food is not great. Chicken wings very dry (do not order it).

In Toronto for our sons wedding, the reception for which was held at the Edmund Burke. Staff were lovely, the environment and the atmosphere were wonderful and we had a great time. Thoroughly recommended.

My favourite in the hood for a pint

Went here before a concert. Had the schnitzel which was great. My wife had a Caesar chicken wrap which was really dry though. Nice selection of beers. I would go here again if I attend a concert at the Danforth. Food

I only come here hoping to find Pete. Hahaha....

Great food!

Waitress helped us with the menu, good drinks prices, great food, especially the fries.

Great atmosphere with amazing food.

Chill place to get a beer with the boys

Top notch tap selections and stellar service.

Best place on the Danforth! Staff is awesome!

Wonderful cozy pub. It gets busy pre shows but worth a visit

Food was good but nothing great and took way too long to come out, waiter was kind enough to shave the poutine off our bill down to just fries. This was the only non fast food place open late enough where we could grab a bite after attending a concert. Had the Blue cheese jack burger. Pretty good but the flavour of the caramelized onions was non existent. Poutine was great I ll give them full credit there and the bangers and mash ok but nothing special.

Bartender was very professional and efficient. Also nice room.

The and blue cheese/Jack D burger was out of this world...BUT lack of heat on a cold Friday night killed the vibe. Will wait to spring to return....

My boyfriend and I have been here a few times, and its become our favourite place in the area! Great food, awesome beer selection (for me), the best old fashions (for him), and wonderful service. Update: After 7 years, the Burke is still our absolute favourite haunt in Toronto. Russ and Ginger are so wonderful, and this has become a hub for all of our friends. Were even having our wedding here! I cannot recommend the Burke enough!

A great local establishment. Amazing owners, wonderful staff, and a host of friendly characters to keep the chit chat going. A Danforth gift to us all.

Good times. Good people. Hidden private bathroom.... Tell no one Food : 5/5

Visited on a Tuesday night, but it was reasonably busy. Great gastropub with a friendly bartender/waitress who managed to keep everyone served quickly and positively. Even when a pint was knocked off a neighbouring table and broken on the ground, she whipped out the mop, cleaned it up, and never broke stride serving the other patrons. Shes a credit to the bar. The food is good, but both meals seemed a touch under done. Ill return and adjust my score accordingly if the food is better the next time.

Have been a few times and the staff are always great!

I went with a dear friend. The food and atmosphere and customer service were incredible.

Always a great time here. The staff are so friendly and they make an amazing old fashion.

So much energy and great service. Amazing crowd. Check it out people. Worth it.

The food was pretty average. Not bad, but not amazing. Our server was very nice though.

You cant go wrong at this place. IPAs

This place has a fantastic burger and excellent service.

Great service and staff.

We stopped by at Edmund Burke for a beer and something to eat. We were very surprised with our dishes it were delicious. I ordered the schnitzel BLT burger and my husband ordered the schnitzel plate. Everything was delicious and the price is super fare. Well certainly return there.

Really like this place, come here to meet up with friends or whenever were on the Danforth.

Really liked their Jack and Blue burger. The fries were great too! Really nice atmosphere for late night party weather

As good the vibe of the place is, all the bartenders are busy doing is drinking. It kinda feels weird to wait for your drink cause the staff is busy enjoying themselves at the cost of a customer waiting. Also they handed me a food menu to only tell me that kitchen is closed after I made a selection. Not cool. Might return for the cider but definitely not for the service.

Nice, chill place for a pint. Good selection of craft beers from Ontario and abroad.

Great night meeting up with old friends at The Edmund Burke for a few drinks and food. Servers we spot on with only a few hiccups, eg, no coffee or milk. Not their fault. Food was lovely. Atmosphere was at times a bit less pleasant with cigarette smoke blowing through the front door . Again Not the staffs fault. Overall a great experience

Food and prices are great. Worth a try for casual dining on the Danforth

We were looking for a pub on the Danforth to get a late dinner and drinks. This was the fourth one we tried and success at last. The fish and chips were excellent.

Great spot. Food is very good. Service prompt and friendly. Great vibe. Worth checking out if youre on the Danforth.

Really good place to eat and get drinks. Super great and honest service. Would recommend for anyone looking for a great place to just chill and hang out.

Our waiter was awesome!

Great poutine <3 thanks for returning my juul best bartender ever

Amazing place always stop by when I am in Toronto

I was on the back patio with friends, and while my order took a bit longer than the others, it was really good. Wheelchair accessibility: The main restaurant is fully accessible, and there is an accessible bathroom on the main floor. The patio has 2 steps to get to it.

Good beer selection. Good burger. Food

Good selection of draft beer, good food at reasonable prices. Just hope that you dont have a table of idiots sitting in the back patio like we had to deal with yesterday, they were extremely loud continuously. Staff didnt care about that. We probably wont be back.

Used to love this place but its gone way downhill. The service was pretty terrible. Staff made me feel like I was consistently inconveniencing the machismo bartender.

Super quick service and delicious food. If you can get a seat on the patio on a nice day it helps too. Theyve got a solid set of option and their daily specials are good deals. Definitely need to come back to try more of their food.

Nice people with awesome drinks!Caravaggio tasted really good! Would recommend to have a drink here before a concert.

We had the chicken schnitzel and chicken quesadilla. Both were fantastic.

Rude waiter! Delicious creme Brule

We had an amazing time here. The food is great, the staff is super friendly and fun, creating an atmosphere for everyone to have a great time. Loved it.

I like this place, is casual, friendly, good prices and attention. Is one of my favorites close to me.

The Jack and Bleu Burger is incredible.

A fantastic atmosphere, with amazing staff, this is one of the only places in the city that has Delirium Tremens on tap and I highly recommend trying for yourself. There is always a great vibe here perfect for an evening on the town or a beer before your concert at Danforth Music Hall. The classic Reuben is my favourite sandwich in the city. The staff are extremely knowledgeable about their tap offering and make great suggestions.

Its super expensive menu.unprofessional personal , bad music..dont waste ur time, go to more fun bar..

Good bar for a drink.

Nice cosy pub with excellent eats, what else can I say!

Everything was good, but nothing really stood out as great other than our server.

The waitresses friends were extremely rude sat at the bar and harassed my friend because she was hurt about the poor service. This review is not for the waitress but the friends that the staff allow to disrespect and speak profanities at.

Great service.

I dont know what it is but their pretzel is what has me hooked on this establishment. Everything else is great but that pretzel. I cant even.

Good beer. Good vibes. Great fries

Nice little joint, menu is short but tasty, you dont feel crammed in but you dont feel like youre mid-pandemic 6 feet apart either. Good beer selection, pleasant staff. Not much more you can ask for.

Excellent food, excellent service.

Went here the other night with my fiance and had a great time after visiting a couple of other local spots. Bartender Russ was very friendly, and seemed to tend to everyone there without the need of any help. Did not have the chance to try any food as it was pass 1AM in the morning, but I would definitely go back. Atmosphere is nice, very relaxing and comfy. Cheers!

Had a Blue burger and drinks a few weeks ago, good food, just a wee too much oregano in the burger though

Good food -relaxing friendly atmosphere -great service

Good back patio and a few solid dishes. Fun spot for a local stop in drink and Appy. Pretzel is a banger.

Always great to have an industry bar in the neighborhood. Always open until 2am. Amazing staff. Owners are always actively involved in the business and the food is great.

A lovely quiet patio tucked away from the street noise, cozy interior, friendly staff, craft beer and tasty snacks make this place on the top list of restaurants to hang out or dine on Danforth.

Great pretzels

Great bar! Open late, Mike is our favourite bartender. Love Russ and Ginger too

So, i really didnt expect the amazing food here! It is so much better than any pub style food.. the jack and blue burger is amazing and the schnitzel was delicious..next will be the wings when we come back! The service was also brilliant, out server was so relaxed and fun! Must eat here .. also the watermelon mojito was delicious.

Great patio. Great menu. Cheers

Wonderful patio and great food!

Great pub, great food. They have daily specials. Check them out if youre in the Danforth/Broadview neighbourhood.

There isnt anything I could complain about. I dont often leave a 5 star because nothing is perfect. However, this meal and visit to the Edmund Burke was without flaws. The food was amazing. The burger was very good. Blue Cheese and Jack. Whisky Sour was fantastic. Worth the money they ask. Atmosphere is great. Chill low key pub. The server, Fiona and Damien were welcoming and attentive. A plus service. Stopped in before a concert and was not disappointed. Stop by sometime and have a Sour and burger.

Food was amazing. Salad with the juiciest Steak. Burger was huge and flavorful with fries on the side. The server even ask if I was allergy sensitive. Wonderful friendly service. Picture is of empty plates because it was so amazing.

Had some awesome pub fare when I was here the other night. Nothing else even matters when the foods great

They consistently makes me happy. I highly recommend the chicken schnitzel and the mac and cheese. The food gets home hot and delicious.

Food and drinks are great!

Great food great atmosphere

Amazing French fries. The beef dip was meh. Nice cocktails.

just perfect!

Went here and if it wasn t by the danforth it would be out of business. The cocktail I had was the cherry sour. To describe it, it had very little depth and layering and texture and was nothing but overtly sweet. I had trouble getting it down as there was no balance and it was insanely sweet. The server was rude, he literally THREW coasters at us for our drinks (no exaggeration), there was no quality check when our food came and only gave one of us cutlery. I understand turning tables, making a profit, wanting to have a good turnover for more business but even when I payed he didn t even wait for my card to approve before turning and speed walking away without saying a word. We were starving and we didn t finish our dishes because it was bland and honestly made me a little sick. The glassware for drinks was APPALLING. As a mixologist I was so disturbed to see the amount of lip prints on my unused glass. It s either your glass washer is broken or out of correct sanitizer, you don t polish your glassware or a combination of all of the above. I took my napkin around the rim of a glass and it came out BROWN! the Only reason I gave two stars was because the garnish on the drinks were fresh, and the presentation and interior were nice. Other than that, it was a rather humiliating and disappointing experience .

Good neighborhood pub. Grabbed wings and a beer. Food was fresh and hot.

Great service, environment, food and drinks!!

Amazing Beer and food . Such a friendly vibe and atmosphere

Stopped here for a bit to eat before a show next door. Nachos were awesome and drinks were good. Service was exceptional. Nice and quiet place to have some food and conversation!

Calamari was a great call. The steak sandwhich was good too. Food

Love the Eddy B! Weve been coming here for the last 4.5 years and remain happy customers. Very welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food, good beer selection (rotating local options), clean, and the new back patio has come together quite nicely! One of our favourites in the area; writing this review is making me hungry for their (Chicago) beef burger, which deserves more hype. :) Convenient location mere steps from Broadview station and along the Danforth.

Great food, great service, and a fantastic back deck when the weather accommodates.

Great bar, great beer

Delicious!

Nice place, nice people!

My new favourite spot on the DForth! Excellent service, excellent drinks. I heard the food is good but I haven t tried it yet. I will soon though because it looks and smells really good being served to others

My boyfriend was here last night and it wasn t a good experience AT ALL. First of all, the server was visibly drunk while working. She tried to give my boyfriend a bill for 2 beers that weren t his, yelled at him, gave him attitude and embarrassed him in front of the entire restaurant for not paying his bill and was super rude and drunk the entire time. Will never come back.

I am giving 1* due to the fact that the food I received was unexpected at best. Large portion of spatzle and chicken but everything was bland and was underseasoned. The chicken was no longer juicy and the breadcrumbs had no flavor (I have had better from shake n bake). It is difficult to give anything more than 1* for food when the green beans were the highlight of the meal. Bartender was nice enough and beer was cold.

Open the latest on the danforth. Great staff, great selection of beer and absolutely gorgeous back patio. We ve never been disappointed with the food. You gotta try the flatbread - it s so so good. Steak is also a must try :)

Very friendly staff and a wide array of beers both on tap and in bottles and cans. Lovely little spot to grab a drink and chill.

Love this bar

Service was good. Might be some of the worst nachos Ive ever had... No toppings and very expensive.

Great service and beer selection!! Not many options for vegetarians and the veggie burger they do have, while it has great flavour, is weirdly pasty. My partner really liked his mussels though. Update from Fall 2021: Tried the veggie flatbread and it is excellent! Also made an exception from my typically-veggie diet to try the poutine and boy oh boy is it worth it. Upgrading to 5-stars!

Best local pub ever. Good food and beer, clean, service is good, wings are the best in Toronto.

Love this place, friendly workers and good food...

Interesting menu and cool atmosphere

Awesome place, a must visit.

Cozy bar with cool art on the walls and the friendliest owners and staff! The chicken schnitzel is my favourite dish - the spatzle is made in-house. I stayed for seven hours once and ate two dinners!

Great service...amazing atmosphere...their dried wings are best I have had.

Excellent food and service every time.

Great bar. Good quality food and great hosts

Awesome place. Great beer, amazing food, warm atmosphere, and staff willing to go the distance to make your stay perfect. Highly recommend the chicken schnitzel with spaetzle, although basically everything Ive tried on the menu was also super delish. If you havent been, check it out!

Great place to go for a drink after a show at the Danforth. Great service + late night menu!

Good service, good brews!

The food was really good, service excellent, convenient to the theatre..... It was missing 1 star just because the inside needs a bit of a makeover.... Otherwise, we would go back, and do recommend!

Such a great bar! Its been one of my favorite places on the Danforth since they opened. Friendly staff, decent drink prices, nice ambiance, and awesome food (a bit on the pricier side but worth it). Highly recommend the French onion soup, the Ruben sandwich and my absolute favorite, the chicken schnitzel, but Ive yet to have a bad meal or a bad time there. Patio is open and extended now, and takeout has always been on point.

My favorite, local, (and family owned! ) pub, with an excellent choice of beer and awesome food!

Amazing burgers

The food is amazing. Service is great

Mike the bartender is awesome, though its a bit expensive.

Relaxed atmosphere and great music!

Always wonderful, great food, try the Rubens, great taps, try any of them, the service is incredible, Fiona, AJ are to die for. Go...just Go !

Very yummy food, especially the chicken schnitzel, the Mac and cheese and the beef dip. Friendly and attentive service and following social distancing rules so I felt safe eating out on the patio!

Definitely one of my favourites on the Danforth. Great food, lovely staff, wonderful atmosphere. The new back patio is beautiful too.

Good service! Thank you.

Good service

Neat little spot. New back patio is excellent. Staff are great and have personality. Beer is fresh. Great place to catch up with friends.

Delightful little pub with delicious food and a wonderful selection of drinks. Id say that the size of their fried chicken is shockingly tiny. Like I was eating Cornish game hen or a pigeon. Tiny little drum sticks, delicious, but just tiny.

Nice beer selection. Good layout for social distancing which staff diligently ensure.

Convenient location for my visit to the Danforth Music Hall. I had an excellent burger, and my friend had the steak sandwich, which he said was incredible. Service was friendly and relatively fast.

Cozy neighborhood pub with good beer selection, great food and friendly staff

Best French onion soup I ve ever had.

The owner is not professional. I was there today there. He took away my beer befor He discriminated me ...

Cozy

My Dad and I stopped by after a show at the Danforth Music Hall for some drinks and a late dinner. I had a charcuterie board and it was fantastic. Our server was very polite and accomadating. A warm and cozy atmosphere.

Great staff and a staple on the Danforth.

This is the coolest hip resto pub acid jazzy bar vibe with great beer and wine . . .food . . .staff . . .and is Not a franchise! drink local!!!

Their food was really good. Focuses on the architect who built a few of the nearby landmarks. Really cool place

Always a nice place. Servers always friendly

Try the food!
