At the Beaver & Bulldog, its feeling good about the food, the people and the bill each time you walk through the door. Because at the B&B, special is not something that comes around once in a while.
A couple of weeks ago, my boyfriend, sister and her fiance decided to go out for dinner. We decided to try something new rather than go to the typical restaurants such as Jack Astors or Montanas. My sister's fiance, recommended we go to Beaver and Bulldog. He said he's gone there before and really enjoyed the food.
When we got there, we were immediately seated in a very nice, comfortable and private booth. Our server came immediately, introducing herself and taking our drink orders. Once we had some time to think over what we wanted, we placed our orders. My sister's fiance ordered the Pan Roasted Chicken Supreme that consisted of stuffed chicken, potatoes and vegetables. The rest of us got typical pub food. We waited a while for our food, but the company was great so the wait wasn't horrible.
When the food came, I recieved the Canadian Burger and fries which looked and tasted delicious. My boyfriend got a plate full of wings and very much enjoyed them. My sister got a ceasar salad and a side of sweet potatoe fries. Us three were satisfied with our meals. But my sister's fiance (the most excited to get his meal) was rather disapointed when we recieved his plate. The portion was very small. Definately not enough food to feed a 22 year-old man. We were disapointed with this especially for the price that he had paid for his meal.
All in all the food ended up to be quite delicious but the meal portions could have been much larger for the price we ended up paying for them. I enjoyed the pub atmosphere. It was clean and classy and gave all the customers the privacy they would like at their tables. I would go again to this restaurant/pub but would not recommend the pan roasted chicken supreme to a man. Even if the menu does make it sound delicious.
went for lunch, the service was great as we basically had the place to ourselves. The soup, sandwich and salad combo had the perfect amounts of all 3.
Staff was friendly, food was tasty and it was clean...what more do you really want out of a place?

The food wasn't bad. I really enjoyed the chips I got with my meal, although they were quite spicy. The meal was pretty good and I wouldn't complain. The atmosphere was definitely pub style and it's good for when you want a good drink.
This place has "Sports Pub" in the title yet they couldn't manage to get the hockey game on the TV. They claimed there was something wrong with the TV. Saturday night Leafs & Senators, or Equestrian...yeah I'm sure everybody was there for the horses. And my wings were cold, but not cold as ice because there was none...ARGH.
On a busy night our party arrived around 7. We were told the wait would be around 45 min. At 7:45 we were seated in an awesome private booth. Our server was awesome and the food better. Our booth had its own television so we were able to catch the Jays game. A great experience, and according to my friends the first of many.
Not very impressed with this restaurant at all. We were told by other to visit this location as they had nothing but great things to say about the Collingwood location so we thought that we would give the Upper James location a try. We did not enjoy our meals as they were not hot. Just luke warm. Service? Well I could go on for hours about how terrible it was from the moment we walked in the door. We will definately go out of our way to not reccommend this place.
Tried their wings at the first Hamilton Wingfest. They were excellent. Big, tender and very flavorful. Not too sure what the restaurant itself is like, but after the Wingfest experience, I'll be trying the place out soon.
