A local pub is gaining national attention for its menu.

17 Mile House Pub owners are known locally to be Habs fans 鈥� and their disdain for the Toronto Maple Leafs is no secret. But menu items that have been making locals laugh at the popular Sooke establishment are now making national headlines thanks to one social media post.

A photo of the menu, posted by Twitter user @Angeline19781 has pushed the 鈥淢aple Leafs Poutine鈥� into the spotlight.

On the menu for $67 (a nod to the Leafs鈥� last Stanley Cup win in 1967), it鈥檚 described as 鈥渋n usual Leafs fashion, a cold, overpriced dish served with under-performing gravy, ice cold fries and a side of disappointment.鈥�

Another blow for Leafs fans is the menu item above it.

The 鈥淗abs Pountine鈥� is listed at $12.95 as a Quebec classic with crispy fries and cheese curds, smothered in gravy.

Other Twitter users couldn鈥檛 help joining the fun, throwing a few light-hearted jabs back and forth. Many quickly pointed out how well Leafs Nation was taking the joke, while others questioned why there was no option for Canucks fans on the menu.

Poutine anyone?

They had this sign up during Covid
