Allen's is reminiscent of a New York City saloon from ages past. The tin ceiling, the wood floors and the cozy old bar make it an experience in itself. Yet Allen's also has a fabulous menu that is sure to inspire and delight.

With more than 300 kinds of whisky, more than 100 wines and over 140 beers, it will satisfy your need for liquid refreshment. The food is pub fare improved thanks to the reliance on organic and locally raised meats and careful preparation. Burgers, salads, soups and so much more await those who pay a visit to Allen's.

    I have visited Allen's many times but today was exceptional as we were celebrating a Birthday. I was greeted at the door and offered my choice of indoor or patio. When my friend arrived the service was friendly and prompt including the daily specials. Allen's made today very memorable as they provided a wonderful chocolate birthday cake. Thanks for an awesome day!!

    Great night Celebrating our 32 anniversary. Allen’s was where we had our first date. Such a great asset to the Danforth. Great food, great ambience and fantastic service. Thank you Anthony for the welcome, celebratory champagne upon arrival. True class!! Apps were on point. Cesar salad never disappoints! Had the special: duck … so tasty!! Will come back again and again!!

    Yet another great lunch on the back patio at Allan’s. Butter chicken was delicious. My friend had fish and chips…. He said it was really good..but not as tasty as some place he likes in England. 😱

    We went here for a work-related team (6 of us) dinner, and the food was excellent! We tried the ribs, sea bass, steak, pizza, and pork chops. The salad plate was also fabulous. We all enjoyed it and highly recommend the restaurant.

    We eat at Allen’s fairly regularly, and love the food. The burger is the best in the city, as is the caesar salad. As always the service was good. The only comment I’ll make otherwise is that our server had brought a slice of cake for our guest’s birthday, which was lovely, but made a point of telling her that it was complimentary “on the house”, yet it was added to my bill. I have no problem paying for a dessert, but telling my guest it was on Allen’s vs on me is a bit self-serving, if not an insult to me, considering I paid for it. Not a complaint, but an observation.
