This month's installment of pubs I miss is the Down Under Pub. There were two locations, one in Yorkville and one on Wellington Street. I spent several evenings at the Yorkville location. It was close enough to the fringes that it attracted more of a Yonge Street crowd than a Yorkville crowd.
The beer selection was, for its time, very good and the service was excellent.
I visited the Wellington Street location only once, on Juan Garcia Esquivel's eightieth birthday, where I was served the finest martini that I didn't make myself.
I still feel a bit wistful when I'm in Yorkville as I haven't found another pub in the area, save for the Pilot, where I feel entirely comfortable.
