Wheat Sheaf vs the Maddy

In an unusual turn of events, Ian and I went out both Friday and Sat night for some pub/bar fun-ness.

Friday night was at the Wheat Sheaf on Bathurst. Highlights included:

• Cheap food (like $9 for a humongous plate of nachos, $8 or so for chicken finger and fries)
• Steamwhistle on tap
• OK patio
• Fun painted moose near the patio
• Lots of TV's for blue jays or hockey fans
• Extremely close to our place
• Somewhat cheap beer
• TO's oldest bar (like pre 1900 I think)
• Not exactly friendly service, but not unfriendly
  

Saturday night was at the Madison (aka Maddy). Highlights included:

• We did not order food, but in previous outings, the food is also pretty decent and cheap
• Also somewhat cheap beer (especially if you come pre 8 pm)
• Gigantic place with lots of patios
• A somewhat odd mix of people - t-shirts & jeans as well as the fully dressed up to go out crowd
• Rather far from us, but lots of good exercise when we walk there and back
  
• Surly service last night - other times not so bad
• Ian liked the heaters on the patio
