It used to be a Fionn MacCool's and now the name isn't all that different but the menu certainly is. For one, they have these God-awful photographs that don't really look related to anything ON the menu. Things like three scoops of vanilla ice-cream that looks as if a bite were taken out of one of the scoops. And tomatoes. Just you know, random tomatoes.
Regardless, Fynn's is always a staple lunch time spot for us 'cause it serves what we really want for lunch on Fridays: beer. In my case, Guinness.
The food is still yummy and plentiful in portion-size.
Can't ever go wrong with the Fish n chips.

Unfortunately my fave Jerk Tilapia has now been changed to tilapia with pesto and tomatoes (ah, I see where the image of tomatoes comes in useful now). It's not bad, but I miss the Jerk Tilapia 'cause it had a delicious pineapple salsa on top. Bring it back, please!
- pesto tilapia and roasted tomatoes on quinoa and basmati rice, with veggies, $16
Overall, no complaints though, this is definitely the best pub on King street near Spadina.
