    Sat at the bar and enjoyed cocktails and amazing wine that paired beautifully with the food. So many interesting flavours. One of the servers gave us a couple other recommendations of where to go while we were in town as well. Definitely made for an amazing night out.

    Bar Lupulus has been a neighbourhood gem for quick some time now, but even more as of late in my world. They impressed with their creative adaptability over the pandemic and have been a 'go-to' ever since. Service is truly impressive with staff that appear happy working and being part of the tight-knit Bar Lupulus Team. Food is unique, varied, and comforting all in one delicious package. My rule is to always try a new ingredient for the first time whenever I dine at Bar Lupulus.

    From the moment you enter, you feel special and that level of service continues throughout the evening. The food was extraordinary: tasty, creative and the best of ingredients. Can't wait to come back.

    Quiet Wednesday night dining. Food and wine very good, though the chefs could go lighter on the salt.

    Lupulus is an upscale yet cozy restaurant with imaginative dishes, a stellar craft beer and cocktail list, and friendly, professional servers. It’s our go-to restaurant when we want a special night out!

    Bar Lupulus supposedly has a great wine list, but they refuse to make it visible to their customers. You have to tell your server what you like in a wine and they will suggest two or three choices. This is soooo wrong and disrespectful of the cusotmers. They have told me their winelist changes frequently, so they can't afford to print it. Well, other restaurants, like the Brookstreet, have their winelist, which is continuously updated, on an iPad that is brought to the table so that the customer cna chose their own wine from the full list of available wines!
