Located at 277 Alexander Street, The Old Toad is nothing short of your traditional British local. From the staff to the food and ales, everything is purely authentic. Even the bar itself was imported from Great Britain. Truly “a pub from over there, over here”.

Since its establishment in 1990, The Old Toad has built a reputation for providing friendly, excellent service. We offer a wide range of beer - from real ales, imports, and local favourites, to our very own custom brews. In addition, we serve traditional British meals as well as contemporary pub grub (including vegetarian meals). This is a relaxed atmosphere, there are no televisions or blaring jukeboxes here. So please, come in and see what all the fuss is about, mate. We promise, you’ll be glad you did.


We will be closed Monday May 27th for Memorial Day. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Beer and Scotch Tasting Parties at The Old Toad

Have you ever thought that you and a group of friends/collegues or a batchelor/batchelorette party would enjoy a beer tasting by a team of enthusiastic, knowledgable folk in a fun atmosphere of an English Pub?

If you have then look no furthur! We are happy to be able to host structured tastings for a variety of different occasions. Our 5 beer tastings start at $15.00 per person and include light nibbles. If you want to get a more in depth event going we can structure a tasting around you and your needs and custom make an event just for you.

We do require reservations for these tastings as we need to prepare space and a range of beers as well as food being ready.

Scotch tastings will need to be pre-arranged as the prices to vary so much, please call if you are interested in having one. Phone - 232 2626

Want to take home beer? A growler or growlette is the answer!

Have you ever been in the pub and loved one of the beers we have on draft or on cask and thought you would love to be able to drink this with friends at home over dinner, or when perhaps the Old Toad is closed for the day (perish the thought)

Take home a growler or growlett (32oz) filled with your favorite brew for only $3.00 for the empty growler. Beers priced according to selection.
