What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?
In 'The Wren, Roy's Place, Iron Skillet' (S4E5, aired 2015-02-27), TVDB's episode description contrasts eating lightly with tackling a giant chimichanga at The Wren, and names no city. A Toronto pub of that name at 1382 Danforth Avenue opened in the spring of 2013, according to Streets of Toronto's article dated 2013-07-03, which listed a deep-fried pulled pork chimichanga at $15. BlogTO's restaurant page for the pub, which is undated, describes a saloon-style room with a western theme, wood floors, a wagon-wheel chandelier, southwestern and southern comfort dishes, and 12 Canadian beers on tap. Streets of Toronto's listing page for the pub carries a note that its details are current through 2024 and shows no closure label. A public Google listing for the pub gives an Instagram account named thewrendanforth as its website.
A Google Maps listing checked 2026-10-20 shows The Wren at 1382 Danforth Avenue in Toronto as operating, with more than 2,000 Google reviews, the newest about a week old.
