My son was interested in the PB&J Burger so, we went to the Shipyard Tap & Barrel…read more The service was quick and great and the foods were amazing! I was so impressed West Coast Clubhouse. It was the one of the best clubhouse in my life. We will be back soon !

I love Tap & Barrel and have visited their Olympic Village location many times before! This was my…read morefirst time at their Shipyards location. They have a very big patio seating which is perfect for the summer. It was 6 of us and we went there on a Saturday night without reservations and got a spot right away. I was a little disappointed with their food here. We got their nachos which came out in less than 5 mins after ordering but it felt like they were made awhile ago and just reheated in the oven. The chips were burnt (did not taste fresh) and it was very dry. We also got their rigatoni pasta which was too salty, the sauce was not cooked well. Usually when their fries are super crispy and my favourite but this time they had gotten soggy. Even the Forager Chicken was over cooked and chewy to eat. Maybe it was a busy day for them? It was my friend's birthday so they got her a little dessert which was nice of them!

So we came back and my daughter ordered the Babka French Toast again. She didn't ask me to share it…read morewith her but simply made sure to stop eating after she had finished about half the dish. Much appreciated as this allowed me to order something different. I had The Classic which came with Eggs, mushroom & broccolini, potato rosti, baked beans, roasted tomato and housemade sourdough. We also ordered a Nutelle Hot Chocolate and Matcha Oat Latte. I loved The Classic. While I do enjoy trying new things all the time, I think I'm a Classic girl at heart. I often fight the urge to order the tried and true for the sake of trying new things, but I'm ever so happy on those occasions where I give in and order something more Classic. Baked beans and toast remind me of family trips to England. Havn't gone for one of those in years, but I do have some good memories of them. When they're on sale here, we sometimes like to buy cans of Heinz British style baked beans, and I sometimes make my own homemade version of baked beans to store in our freezer. I don't often see baked beans on brunch menus so this was a bit of a special occasion for me to be able to order something with baked beans for brunch. Personally, I would have preferred the beans to have been just a little bit softer. Nothing wrong with them. They were fully cooked but perhaps just a little bit firmer than I'd have liked. I prefer my beans very soft and I tend to be like that with a lot of foods in general. My hubby prefers his foods firmer, and I like my foods softer. It's a personal preference. Otherwise, I very much enjoyed this dish and am very likely to order it again sometime! Oh, the potato rosti in my dish was awesome as well. This meal was so filling though that I only ate one small corner of the potato rosti and then took the rest home to eat as I was very full already from everything else I had eaten from the plate.

Wow how did I miss this place which is just across from the Lonsdale Quay marketplace? Wonderful…read morebrunch spot with fantastic pastries and friendly staff. - Baked custard tart at Catch 122 - basically a giant Dan Tat. If you love Dan tats you got to get this. - all of the other pastries looked incredible and I will be back for sure to try them. - the mushroom toast is like Instagram worthy. It comes with this amazing fried I'm not sure what but it's great looking. Poached eggs too. - side of potatoes comes in a pan with aioli on top of each one. The aioli is fantastic. The potatoes crunchy and flavourful but not too fried at all. - ok the highlight for me is the KFC fusion Dutch baby. I've never heard of a dish like this before. The classic Dutch baby pancake with Korean ingredients - gochujang flavoured KFC, kimchi, veggies, an egg in the middle bibimbap style. The chicken is good although the sauce a bit uneven - some extra spicy hot spots. The ingredients come together really well and the Dutch baby is fantastic. I'll be coming back for sure!!!

We wrapped up with two amazing desserts. Isaac was our server and was friendly, attentive, and as a bonus gave us suggested locations to visit while in town. Highly recommended.

Came here for dinner so my poutine obsessed daughter could get her poutine fix for dinner. She…read moreordered the Classic poutine as she usually does and a Virgin Blue Hawaiian drink. I ordered an individual size Baja Nomad Nachos. I also ordered a Virgin Witch's Rock drink. We also used up a few coupons that we had for free tacos and ordered Ancho Chicken Taco, Grilled Basa Fish Taco, and Garden Veggie Taco. Forgot to tell the server "no cilantro" so ummm...food wasn't quite as good as usual but I'm not deducting points for that cuz that was our own mistake for forgetting to say "no cilantro." (Big sigh) It's such a pain though to have to keep on remembering to say that everywhere we go. Why don't restaurants realize that not everyone likes cilantro and make it a policy to bring it up with customers? Why don't they remind the customers that there's cilantro in a dish and then ask if the customer is OK with it? Anyone reading this right now is probably thinking I should just get over it and deal with it. I'm really just venting I suppose. The cilantro problem is just hugely annoying for both my daughter and I.

Lots of Benedict's so I naturally had to have one. The good - the meats are really good especially the pulled pork. Very tender and flavourful. The bacon is decent. Altogether the Benedict's are decent though next time I'll focus on the pulled pork. The egg I asked for medium - not really runny. Though that's a really small criticism.

We tried a few of their signature à la carte items.  Here's the rundown: * Rollio Morning Big Bowl - This super-filling bowl is packed with flavour.  It's the kind of breakfast bowl that keeps you full and happy all day. * Massive Strawberry Mascarpone French Toast - This thing is massive.  Fluffy, creamy, sweet, and totally drool-worthy.  Our fave for sure! * Lonsdale Lobster Trio - A solid choice!  Classic lobster in toasty buns--simple and tasty. * Korean Street Fried Chicken - Crispy, juicy, and straight-up addictive.  Another top pick! * Korean BBQ Beef (Bulgogi) - Tender, flavourful, and hits all the right Korean BBQ notes. * Okinawa Pork Cutlet (Tonkatsu) - Crispy on the outside and juicy inside.  Comfort food! Everything was flavourful, and the portions were generous, perfect for sharing. If we had to pick just two favourites, we'd go with the French Toast and Korean Fried Chicken--absolute winners! We can't wait to go back and try their build-your-own bowl next time! Food: 5/5 Must Try! Service:  Eatery Kids: 4/5 Yay!

Gosh we so wanted to give this local diner a top mark, but unfortunately, on this visit, we cannot…read more We'll be back for sure because the reviews are just too good to not give Douce another go. It's bright and airy, even on a rainy nasty day on the West Coast. The decor is awesome in our mind, very diner driven and classy. The glass into the kitchen itself offers a glimpse into the line cook life. The service was top notch, the space is clean and tables are turned with precision. Nothing to quibble with overall, but the food itself was just average, and just that alone is not where a small place like this should be. The hash browns were bordering on overdone and were not plentiful. One piece of toast is always a pet peeve of mine, though the multigrain was good. The Romesco really had little taste and was almost a little dry. I had trouble speeding it around and ended up eating most of it in one bite, which I am sure is not the ideal scenario. K had the grilled cheese sandwich with onions. The fries were great but the sandwich was lacking in cheese and onions which isn't ideal. We also had three go arounds with our English Breakfast tea and the cream curdling once added. The date on the cream was far in advance and the cream was cold, so not sure what the issue was. I actually asked specifically for milk when ordering, so it didn't excite me to have this happen. They finally brought milk with the third tea try, K used it, I didn't bother. Small thing, but I like my tea while waiting for my meal, not with it or halfway through it. That all said, everyone was happy, seemed to enjoy the food and service and there appear to be alot of locals. We will certainly give the Douce another go, and hope that it's a far better experience.

This hidden gem in North Van serves classic diner dishes and comfort food all made from scratch…read more There were nostalgic vibes and service was amazing. The portions are huge and every dish is made with quality ingredients. French onion grilled cheese with shoestring fries: I got a nice cheese pull out of this, it satisfied all my cheesy cravings. It came with a generous amount of fries. Denver-ish breakfast bowl: order this if you want a nice variety for breakfast. I added avocado and it was so satisfying. Bacon eggs benny on housemade buttermilk biscuits with hashbrowns: fresh hollandaise over perfectly cooked eggs. The buttermilk biscuit is so much better than an English muffin. I absolutely loved the shredded hashbrowns. Strawberry milkshake: you need to try their hand spun milkshakes! Topped with whipped cream and sprinkles, I felt like a kid again.
