This place is absolutely fantastic. The music's always on point, the comedians have me rolling in my seat, and the whole vibe is just so laid back and fun. Plus, the drinks are super reasonably priced, which never hurts. The staff is super friendly and really goes out of their way to make sure you're having a good time. You can't go wrong with a night out here.

I had an incredible experience at Teddy Beer! The chef’s expertise truly shines through in every dish. The flavors were exquisite, and each bite was a delight. Highly recommend trying the carbonara.

This is the second time I've been to this bar and the service is simply magnificent! I decided to celebrate my birthday and it was an excellent choice! We were served by Jazz and received great service! She is extremely polite, kind, and always has a smile on her face! The food is delicious and the drinks are wonderful, as well as very well prepared and colorful! I'm very happy and grateful for the service! I highly recommend it.

My boyfriend and I had an amazing time here! The food was delicious (we had to order the burrata and prosciutto twice), the drinks were super tasty, and the service was excellent😊 Our server Jazzlyn and the manager Kate know exactly how to treat their patrons, shoutout to them! The live music was great as well. We will definitely be back!

The place has a chill vibe. The people working there are warm and friendly. Their chicken wings were goood - if you like to keep things spicy, go for their Korean BBQ wings!

Wandering on a Saturday night, my friend and I got pulled towards this eclectic spot and we're so happy that we decided to try it out. The crew is wonderful, warm and so welcoming, everything was being paid attention to and the serving was so polite. 🩷 This place captures the night vibe with live music and a wide variety of handpicked cocktails to get you grooving. If you're looking to have a good time by letting loose, this is your spot!

I had the most amazing experience at Teddy Beer last night. I booked out the main saloon for my girlfriends 30th Birthday and Teddy Beer DELIVERED! Oguz and Kate were the two main staff members last night and they were both amazing and super kind. From letting me come in early to decorate (which i wont even take credit for because that was all Kate lol ) and Oguz helping me with balloons, to creating a great vibe for all of us, giving the birthday gal a couple of free drinks, having the coolest Karaoke system I have ever seen and Oguz letting us have free reign...I could go on forever. In short, go to Teddy Beer, book your parties here, come to a karaoke night here, spend your money here, tip generously here and just overall have a blast. These guys are a newer business in the neighbourhood and I hope they thrive for many years to come. THANK YOU TEDDY BEER!

Awesome spot that has rejuvenated a local gem. Nice patio, excellent service, and great prices on food and drink. They made me a cocktail that wasn t on the menu and made sure it reflected happy hour prices. The pasta and burger were great, as was desert. Eat by the large front window or the quiet back patio!

ITS AN OPEN KITCHEN SO YOU CAN SEE WAT THE CHEFS AT WORK!!! The food was really good and for the price of the food, its super worth it. Great date night idea or a place to grab some good food that wont break the wallet LOL. Our waitress/server, her name was Kait (i dont know if her name is spelt correctly sorry) she provided us with the best and inviting service out there. Good job Kait and thank you!!!

Asian girl w blond hair was serving my friend and I table and she has no manner to give us over space. Plus she kept bothering us right when we finished w our Burger she came to grabs it as we didn t even finish what s in our mouth and took it. Then she was eyeing our drink (Margarita) while she is talking to her friend in Korean, whose drink is also low as ours. She didn t ask her anything. She also wasn t being mindful about my friend s leg crossed and kept saying excuse me as my friend is her( waiter) way. My friend is super tall, she can t shove her leg under the table. would never go there and burger is also very bad and mushy. we couldn t even drink and eat peaceful on our own time without being rushed out of the restaurant.

I m STILL dreaming about the food. We had the wagyu burger, carpaccio and burrata with prosciutto. The chef really knows what he s doing! Hints of truffle oil. So good we ordered ANOTHER wagyu burger at the end of the night. Cocktails were amazing and so fresh! Great selection of beers as well for my beer drinking friends. Staff was so attentive and kind. We felt well taken care of! My only regret was not having enough room in my tummy to try the tuna tartare and a dessert! I will have to come back again!

We are locals and went here for opening night. This is a place built for the gram but it falls apart IRL. The draft beer selection was quite sad for a place with beer in the name. Canned beer selection was better. The cocktail menu was written in 6 pt font so kind of hard to tell what you are ordering. The cocktails took 20 minutes to come and one tasted like body wash, the other was Negroni-esque. Both were tepid and not cold enough l. Our friends who were not picky did not finish their drinks. We tried the truffle fries and they were like soggy Macdonald s fries with some parm and truffle oil. The food menu seemed a bit 80 s with vodka pasta and carbonara. The owners were apparently trying to recreate a bar from Istanbul. I would love to see some Turkish bites on the menu instead. The vibe is kind of flashy and clubby, but I feel it s trying to be too many things at once. In the neighborhood there are already lots of good restaurants, and ton of great and award-winning cocktail bars, better places for craft beer, are we going to go for the bling? I think this place works well as an event space, but for cocktails, food or beer, there are better options. There is a lot of competition between Christie and Landsdowne. I feel some research should have been done. Hate to be harsh on an opening night but from what I hear it ain t their first rodeo.
