Black Swan


Date visited: March 28, 2005
Score: 45.14


Every neighbourhood has its beer hall, and the Black Swan is it for the Danforth. In fact, only the Midtown Tavern in Halifax tops the Swan in terms of classic beer hall character: lights fully on, no music, and a small lonely TV glowing in a corner. If those clues aren't strong enough clues, the "Hot Nuts" machine gives it away. Average service and rotten beer selection complete the picture. In an effort to be fair, Daryl noted that the Swan might fare better if we were in New Orleans, suggesting that context might be a factor. Perhaps so - but we weren't in Nawlins, so the rating stands!
