Nickeldime Drafthouse is easily the best big group hangout spot for friends. The excellent beer list (both tap and bottled), impressively good bar bites and hearty Western mains are bound to satisfy; if not there’s always authentic Vietnamese pho next door to fall back on. There are 15 rotational craft beers on tap (from $10), sourced from all over the world. Each brew comes in limited amounts, so you can be assured you get something different with every visit. Order their 510 Burger ($16) — hickory stout BBQ glazed beef patty blanketed with IPA cheese, topped with a sunny side up egg and craft beer candied bacon, sandwiched between two fluffy homemade buns. Other beer-infused mains that are great for sharing include the I wanna Hold your Ham ($17), a cheekily-named 11-inch pizza made with beer dough. Pro tip: In need of a midday happy hour? Take advantage of their one-for-one craft beers during lunch and loosen up with a full pint of Tennent's Lager ($13), if available.
Avg Price: $25 per person

Possibly one of my new favourite places to get buzzed. LOVE the burgers here — drippy and hearty and everything I wished for in a burger (the boyfriend approves of this too) 🍔
We couldn't resist getting the one-for-one craft beers (there were only two to choose from — one cider or one lager) so we opted for the lager. Excellent choice on our end, might I say. Got me slightly buzzed even before I was halfway through the glass! Definitely will be back to try more of their beer-infused mains, and the other craft beers on tap! #BURpproved
Three of my favourite dishes at one of my favourite spots that opened in 2014 to gear up for the new work year. Woots!
