McVeigh's Irish Pub, Church St. Toronto

The old Morrisey tavern up at Yonge and Davenport had far more character than McVeigh's ever will. Another classic beer dive was the basement tavern at the Strathcona Hotel (pre-renovations of course). I always chuckle to myself when I walk by that slick Asian fusion restaurant on Queen West where the Beverley Tavern used to be. I can't quite take it seriously knowing it is the same place that used to serve meat on a stick to its patrons getting hammered on draft.
 
Ah, the Bev. And the draft. Many an afternoon well spent there - with the soundtrack to Shaft, Stompin' Tom's Bud The Spud, and Tumbleweed Connection pounding out on the jukebox - when we should've been in class listening to Lily Maley.
