Bar Fancy - Reservar una mesa

Bar Fancy is anything BUT fancy. That's not to say it's a terrible thing, just lower your expectations. I went here with a group of friends for happy hour and I was disappointed to find their food specials were contingent upon how much you drink. For instance, oysters are half price, but you can only order 1/2 dozen for every drink you order. Same for the chicken, I think it's a maximum of 3 pieces per drink (plenty for me). The chicken is quite good, but I didn't like that the dominant flavor for me was sugar. Beer was really overpriced - their "seasonal" beers were $9 a pint. Really expected lower prices at happy hour, but I guess only their food is on the HH menu. What I really disliked was the tiny paper plates and cheap plastic cutlery they give you to eat with. They could at least spring for some better quality disposable forks if they want to eliminate doing dishes. It was a joke trying to eat with the crappy ones they provide. And the napkins are the same ones they use in the bathroom. Maybe they're just going for a picnic vibe or something, but I didn't really care for it. If I'm in a restaurant paying $9 for a beer, I'd like a decent plate and a real fork to eat with. The ambience is pretty cool, but is it ever loud in there!! As a group of six, we had an extremely difficult time trying to hold a conversation between more than two people, because we essentially had to shout across the table to be heard. Had we known this, I'm sure we would have chosen another venue for this particular outing. Service was ok, but they don't really keep track of who is ordering what - for example, they count how many pieces of chicken were ordered at the table, not by the person. So they bring a plate of chicken to the table, and because it's so loud, we couldn't figure out who ordered what and when. Some people ended up not getting what they ordered or had to wait a super long time for their food because someone at the other end of the table thought it was their order. Bottom line, I think this has to be your kind of place, and it's certainly not for everyone. I thought it was ok, but nothing about it would bring me back.

One thing to note is that it's a little hard to find the door. You just need to head down a little alley way and then you'll see it.The bar is really interesting, lighting and decor make it feel nice a divebar like. The drink selection is nice, offering a few really nice ciders.Food wise it was okay, bar food as you would expect.

This is a really cool bar on Queen West! There is no cocktail list because the bartender can make whatever you fancy. The fried chicken is AMAZING. We also had the numbing wings...which literally numb your mouth and lips...really weird but delicious. A real foodie place!
