Small venue but very lively with their locals. I believe we got unfairly charged for a cover because of the band. I didn't others with wrist bands and they were sitting in the same area as us. THE WINGS ARE AWESOME.....OUR WAITRESS DANIKA WAS AWESOME AS WELL.

The big beef (with bacon and caramelized onions) was sloppy and delicious as you expect a pub burger to be. The parties had the authentic flame broiled char flavour. The fries were perfectly deep-fried to golden crispy brown. Mayo on the side for the win. Pork ribs were falling off the bone and full of sticky saucy flavour. Edamame was out healthy alt to fries and you can’t mess these up. Service was friendly and attentive. Price was reasonable and portion size was large. As you can see from our photo we could not finish our meals and had to take some home! Atmosphere was relaxed and felt like a real pub from the old days. No pretence here. Good rock music from the 70s/ 80s. A refreshing alternative to the formulaic chain pubs that are ubiquitous in Toronto. Would recommend.

Had a great experience at Drums N Flats! We came here to watch a FIFA World Cup match and the atmosphere was incredible. Watching the game on the big screen made the whole experience feel exciting and immersive, and everyone around was fully into it. Great energy, good service, and a fun place to enjoy big sporting events with friends. Definitely a spot I’d come back to for future matches!

Drum and flats isn’t exciting local restaurant on the Avenue Road corridor south of Wilson Avenue. Easy and plenty of parking. Nice vibes great staff consistently great food can never go wrong nor ever be disappointed. Of course, well known for their drums and their flats, along with great fries and dipping sauces for your wings unless you want the sauce tossed in your wings or chicken strips! Good for small or large groups. Can’t forget the great selection of the various types of beers 👌
