JOE KOOL’S<br />
Sports Bar. Family Restaurant. Party Central. This is truly a place for everyone,<br />
of any age. Restaurateur<br />
Mike Smith launched<br />
Joe Kool’s over a third of a<br />
century ago, and it’s been a<br />
fun and popular Richmond<br />
Row landmark ever since.<br />
The Scene<br />
The eccentric surroundings<br />
provide a never-ending supply<br />
of eye-catching kitsch and<br />
memorabilia, from Elvis in his<br />
coffin to the 1000+ beer can collection. Kool’s is also a sports lover’s paradise,<br />
evidenced in umpteen big screens and TVs covering all of the angles and all<br />
The Kitchen Sink Pizza<br />
of the games. If you want to<br />
watch it, they can probably get<br />
it! A seasonal rooftop patio<br />
has capacity for 130 people.<br />
Large groups can also arrange<br />
for semi-private rooms: the<br />
ever-popular “Back Room”<br />
with mezzanine, and “The<br />
Penthouse” in the basement.<br />
Menu Highlights<br />
There are 25 draft beers on tap, but Joe Kool’s is also about the food. While<br />
there is something for everyone, Kool’s is known for its <strong>Local</strong> Lake Perch fillets,<br />
pan-fried and served with lemon caper mayo, and ever-popular Jose Nachos,<br />
the Kitchen Sink Pizza, Deluxe Hot Dogs and Burgers and Chicken Wings.<br />
Also recommended are the Thai<br />
Jose Nachos<br />
Lettuce Wraps — marinated<br />
chicken, julienned vegetables,<br />
peanuts and cilantro — or the<br />
pan-seared chicken and pork Pot<br />
Stickers, served with toasted<br />
sesame and sweet soya dipping<br />
sauce. Joe Kool’s also offers a<br />
convenient take-out and delivery<br />
service.<br />
