So, our staff heads to the Duke's about every 2 or 3 weeks for a "debriefing" pint. We always sit in the same place - the atrium and order food and beer. Today was no exception EXCEPT that at 3:00 p.m the table that 8 of us sat at was prepared for a 5:30 sitting. No big deal for the... More

We used to be regulars for breakfast but rarely go anymore. The cook doesn't seem to care, and the quality of the food has been consistently worse every time we've been over the past year or two. Disappointing. It was our favourite breakfast spot for years.

I honestly felt like I was in The UK. Scottish accents, boisterous crowd, and old furniture. The food was actually pretty good (fish and chips) and a good selection of draft beers. Overall a pretty good place for a layer back dinner.

I was there for my birthday. Food was great, beer great. Duke of Wellington has very cozy atmosphere with British charm. Also there is live music which was absolutely amazing :) would definitely advice the place for a relaxing evening

Great atmosphere. I wish they would do a make-over just to freshen up the place but the essence of the place hasn't changed for the past 20 years. A fun place to have a pint ... or 2... or 3...

I really feel comfortable here, not sure why but it feels like a neighborhood bar full of regulars and the food is always consistent with a good selection of imported beers on tap.

Food is OK, nothing to write home about. Same with the service. Monday night entertainment was very good.
