    Yeah "gastropub" is a common term that has been used for years in the UK, though maybe not as common here yet.

    I like the way you think.

    We could probably make an exception. A possible meet location maybe.

    We should find out what the requirements are for that, if you need a commitment to buy X amount, I know thats how some places do it.

    Did anyone notice what they had on tap, or was it just bottles for this affair? I see someone drinking a coors so my expectations are a bit low regarding their beer menu...

    I was drinking Stella out of a bottle after the Steamwhistle on tap I ordered needed the Keg changed. I couldn't get a good look but it looked like Steamwhistle, Waterloo Dark (I think) and a few I couldn't tell. But nothing like Blue, or Coors on tap. That being said, they have all of those in bottles.

    I didn't have a lot, but the food that I had was really good. Looking forward to hearing some full scale reviews. Let us know what you think.

    New blog entry about the opening party - http://www.thefortyone.com/?p=58

    Yes, it was crowded. Yes, it was loud. Yes, it was a damn good party.

    We couldn’t be more thrilled about the turnout for our grand opening on April 15th. It seems like the entire neighbourhood came out! Even though a few of our friends couldn’t make it, they’ve been good enough to drop in to say hello and stay for a bite to eat.

    We unveiled the Turbo Dog – albeit in bite-sized form – handed out a few menus, gift certificates and poured a lot of beer. There were line-ups in our Expo Alley (right beside the kitchen) and at the wine bar, and a few of our guests escaped the crowd and checked out our upstairs rooms which we’re also fixing up to be used as venues for special events and private gatherings.

    Matt Storch & the Usual Suspects pumped the tunes all night and got more than a few people moving, which was great to see. We’re hoping for loads of feedback about the party (it’s already starting to come in) because we want our guests, our neighbours and friends to have a say in what we serve and how we serve it. Let us know what your liked, what you didn’t, and what you might if it were only possible… and we’ll see what we can do.

    Thanks for all the love and support, Kitchener-Waterloo. You’re the best.

    Sincerely,

    The 41

    Mine too! I like the Coffee Porter a lot, but Im not sure I could drink much of it to be honest with you. Tankhouse on the other hand. Hmmm maybe I'll go grab one.

    All a matter of personal taste of course, but this is my least favourite of the Mill Street offering...the few times I've had this I always detect the aftertaste of canned peas???

    I don't know if I've had that particular after taste haha. But metropolis you definitely make me want to give the Organic another shot. Not that I don't like it, but it never stood out to me.

    I had the opportunity to go to The 41 Gastropub for dinner Thursday night. Being that I had also attended the grand opening party, I was very excited and had great expectations! The food was delicious, but the service was lacking. I arrived at 6:15pm Thursday and was immediately seated by the host. It wasn't busy, mine was only the 3rd occupied table in the front section, (back section was nearly empty) and my table was the one closest to the Host Station at the front door. I sat there for almost 15 minutes waiting for my dinner partner - and was not approached by Gastrupub staff at all. However, during that time, the person who turned out to be our waitress tried to serve me a beer, only to find out it was ordered by a different table!

    Even after the my dinner partner showed up at the table, it took a further 10 minutes to be acknowledged by Gastropub staff, and that staff member was the host who had to be waved down! Minutes after giving our drink and meal order to the host, the waitress (same person who tried to serve me a beer 15 or 20 mins earlier) came to the table and introduced herself as our server and tried to take our order.

    Once the order was placed, the drinks and the meal arrived in good time. The food was very good, although we both agreed the portions were on the smallish side. I'm not someone who insists on oversize portions that require you either to leave food on the plate or force it down so it doesn't "go to waste", but I was left feeling unsatisfied after finishing my meal. This was even after we shared an appetizer and each had large draft beers.

    I'm certainly going to return to The 41 Gastropub because it simply could have been an isolated bad experience. I really love the venue, the food was great tasting, and it's a great place to take visiting friends or a date!

    Anyone else been to The 41 Gastropub? What was your dining experience like?
