The food is amazing here!! I ordered the veggie burger and it came with fresh avocado, buttered & toasted buns and great toppings. The patty itself is made with brown rice, beans and almonds which I think is very hearty. It's very similar to the veggie burger served at Joeys. The service was weird, we started on a good note as we Came in with no reservations as a group of 10 and they were able to seat us for lunch. But throughout the lunch we had two different servers that we had to say everything twice to. I also asked for ... read more

The environment and the patio is very nice, however the food needs improvement. The chicken Taco was very salti and the burger patty was over cooked. Over all a nice place to hangout with friends and have drinks but not for dining.

This was an excellent choice for late-night grub! I had the pulled pork poutine and the fish tacos! Both were off the chain! The service was excellent and the atmosphere was normal for the kind of place. The prices for the tacos were a bit overpriced in my opinion ($5 per taco), but worth it for the life-changing taste!

Louder than I anticipated. But maybe just a busy night that I went there. That's OK I will try it again. the fish tacos were very tasty but the service was a little slow. Asked for hot sauce and it took 10 minutes to come. So I ate most of my dinner without it otherwise the tacos would've been Cold. My daughter liked it there, she had the perogies and said they were YUMMY! I always will give places Another chance. Everyone has a bad day! :)

Love this place! Just moved to the area, and the staff are warm and friendly. Very cool vibe, with upstairs patio as well as lower level. Drinks are reasonably priced, and there's a shuffle board table inside too. I will definitely be back

Local is in the heart of Leaside and a welcome addition to the neighbourhood. We do not have great restaurant options in this area and Local never disappoints. They offer standard pub fare with great flavour, quality and portion in a beautiful historic building that was extensively renovated with a rooftop patio. The service is usually good unless they are slammed busy which happens often. Prices are reasonable compared to other options. They have an extensive bar menu with a rotation tap beer selection. They offer man... read more

For what it is, I liked Local as a pub with the usual pub like menu. Deco was cool with many TVs for the sports lovers. There's also a nice bar. There's an upstairs eating area but it's restricted to those 19 years old. No reservations allowed so can be busy at times. The classic burger is usually what I order there. Good juicy burger and the fries are good. Beer selection is also good. Anyway a good choice for those seeking a pub environment.

Came here cus it was a place I've never been before so me and my friends checked it out. We were gna sit in the patio until we were told that there was a rooftop patio tap we went up and sat at the bar. Our bartender was the bomb. He treated us really well. We ordered a pitcher of sangria, guac and chips, calamari, and perogies. All were delish and they make the guac right in front of u. Price is good and good portions. One of my new fave places.

The ahi tuna salad (which is the same as the chicken salad but more expensive) was absolutely TERRIBLE. It was oily, bland, the portion was really small (really expensive), oh and did I say it was really oily? Like DRENCHED in oil. The burger was much much better (and better priced). The churros were good too.
