Thanks to everyone who came out and thanks to everyone at the Bier Markt! The service and food are exceptional and we always feel welcome and have a great time there. "The Bier Markt was one of the first dining destinations in North America to bring this European delicacy from Northern Continental Europe five years ago for its annual European White Asparagus Feastivül. It continues to be one of the Bier Markt's most popular seasonal menus." “I've been going there for 4 yeas and it's spotless and looks brand new every time I drop in. Staff are unbelievable and know every little detail about everything they serve....and are always selling you something unique and new. Foods' always great, menu works perfectly with all the great beers and wines, they even have the beers and food items matched with numbers. The place looks and feels right with a great vibe and they've done it again on King...although I think it's smaller and cozier. Bravo Bier Markt! They just need one in Montreal and Calgary where I split my time. Paul, Spotlight Toronto.” Paul, Spotlight Toronto.

The Franklin Pourhouse   The Franklin Pourhouse
September 17, 2009 - We just played our first show at this gorgeous gem of a bar. We had a great response and you really need to see this place for yourself... The Franklin House was built in 1855 by William Graydon and Peter Douglas. It was originally built as the private residence of Peter Douglas, who in 1859 went on to sell it to Bennet Franklin, a partner in Barber Brother's Toronto Woollen Mills. Following Franklin's death the building remained named "Franklin House". In 1877 the building was converted to a Hotel and Public House which eventually in 1910 under new ownership was renamed "Queen's Hotel". In 1927 it ceased to operate as a hotel with the enforcement of the Canada Temperance Act, but has continued to be used for commercial purposes. The building is said to have narrowly escaped demolition in 1979, and today The Franklin House is designated and protected under the terms of the Ontario Heritage Act. In 2008 The Franklin House opened it's doors, carrying on the tradition and paying tribute to the original building and it's history.
