The Guild exemplifies a new and exciting take on the finest traditions of butchery, cookery and bar-keeping. The name is inspired by guild halls from the past, which served as a meeting places and secret societies for artists and merchants. Honouring local beef, game and fowl, and utilizing traditional cooking techniques over wood and coal, The Guild chefs are preparing a fitting homage to proud Canadian carnivores.

    The room is great and the service was too. Two mains were very good and hot; the short rib was only warm. Still we had an enjoyable time and will give it another try!

    Did the Valentine's Day 3 course meal. Appetizers we're pretty good (French onion soup and beets and burrata salad) and the mushroom fetaccini was good but the short rib was trash. Sauce was weirdly sweet and barley was undercooked. We had creme brulee for dessert but the surface wasn't caramelized or crusted at all. Cocktails (pecan old fashion, tequila sour and margarita) weren't tasty and we're kind of gross. For close to $300, we could have gone elsewhere for better meal.

    Reid was outstanding as our server!! The only note I would have is on the food which as a whole was just rather under seasoned. Would definitely go back for their ala carte options and for a nice lunch !!

    I was here for Valentine’s Day 2025 and despite how busy The Guild was the staff were still very accommodating, and went above and beyond. I definitely will be coming back again, the atmosphere, the vibe of it all was awesome.
