Unlike other spots I've been to along Bloor in Bloordale, The Jim has something for everyone. Great spot for a date night, a group outing with friends or go in as a single looking for a comfy spot at the bar. The space is laid back, clean and provides amenities such as 3 TV’s and 2 arcade games with welcoming staff. Most importantly, The Jim offers up an extensive tap list and can selection of beers and ciders that could keep you there all night. They also offer a small but mighty cocktail menu, including a fantastic Smoked Caesar with Bacon (YUM!). Their food menu really won me over as it is the host to many classics with a couple great vegan options all at a great price. The best part about their menu is that if you look a little closer you’ll see that it is much more adventurous than first meets the eye, including items such as Boar, Bison and daily specials like crocodile tacos which I tried myself and were delicious! What you can expect – homey, fun atmosphere, dad jokes, great beers/ciders/cocktails and food that don't break the bank Where they go above and beyond – arcade games, ideally placed TV’s hosting sports or your favourite 90’s music videos, unique menu options and soon to be a second level for more fun and games! The Jim really has the whole package and so happy to have a spot like this pop up in my neighbourhood :)

Good food, good beer, good music and good times! Can't ask for more.
