My husband and I went to Campbell River to dig clams and pick up oysters on the beach, and stayed…read moreat the Travelodge near this pub. There wasn't much choice, so we just picked this closest one. My husband ordered a burger, but he didn't feel that the burger was any special. Coming from someone that loves burgers... that says something. I ordered the seafood penne; the sauce was too thick to swallow and so the dish was overall very dry. Chicken wings were on special that night, so we got it 10 for $3. I thought a pub wouldn't do chicken wings wrong, but all of them were over fried and dry, so we couldn't finish them. They also didn't know what honey garlic flavour means and just sprayed a lot of garlic salt on top. Both of us aren't pub-goers so we don't know if we were the weird ones for requesting that flavour???

That was great. The contents of the pork taco was good. The tortilla could have used a few seconds on a hot plate or griddle. Heating it up can really do wonders to lame, store bought tortillas. The apple, blue cheese and walnut tart was the sort of dish that a meat eater would be like, eh, nice quiche, but I bet vegetarians love that they made an effort to prepare something thoughtful and interesting and delicious for them. The meatballs were good too, although among the 4 things we ordered, the most ordinary. Staff were wearing masks. Capacity was limited. There was hand sanitizer at the door. All appreciated. Great place! I'll eat here again if I ever come back to Campbell River. Oh, also, cool swag section! The fancy growlers were tempting.

My…read morehusband and I were driving through and already had eaten a big late lunch so opted to head here for dinner but weren't too hungry so decided to order the carrot cake, yes carrot cake for dinner because we're adults and can do what we want. But holy hell this carrot cake is prob the best slice of carrot cake I've ever had, whoever is baking back in the kitchen is a total rockstar. This cake is moist flavourful, the nuts are a great add and the icing isn't too sweet it's simply perfect. We were shocked at how this blew us away. As for the beers my hubby got 2 that he thought were pretty good but I wasn't drinking and ordered their homemade ice tea and omg they did it again, so shockingly good! Just the right amount of citrus and great tea flavour. The over atmosphere inside is just okay but the service is attentive and all in all we were pleasantly surprised by how delicious our few items were!

A bit steep for casual dinner fare for us-- a couple of Oregonians. We should have split the gyros plate and cut out the alcohol. Food and drinks are expensive on an island where everything has to be ferried over!

We were 22 strong, so taking care of us on short notice looked like it could be an issue. Not for Fifty Parallel! I called at a few minutes before 5 PM and asked if they could accommodate 20ish folks at 7 PM. I was put on hold for a minute and told that yes they could, that doesn't happen often. The staff took exceptional care of all of us. They were very friendly, accommodating and just right. The place was hopping the entire time we were there, so the locals must enjoy the place as well. The menu is quite wide ranging, from Greek fare, to Italian, pizza, seafood, you name it. Usually when there are this many choices they are decent at the range, but not outstanding at anything. Not the case here, everyone raved about the food and the beverages as well. Our beer drinking crowd loved the selection of mainly BC product. Couldn't have gone better, and we will be sure to return our next time in Campbell River.

As we opened the door the staff was mopping the floor, not a good sign. We were told that it was extremely slow that evening, and they had decided to close early as no one was there. We said we understood (it's a Monday on a rainy night in early December in Campbell River). As we stood outside pondering our almost non-existent choices, see above, the door opened and the young lady Jennifer said "Come on in, we'll happily feed you." It certainly turned our night around! The service was of course spot on, we were the only ones in the place, so that was expected. The food however was unexpected, and absolutely delicious! I mean really good! We have a go to place at home that we rave about, but this place had some serious chops. The salad rolls were quite different from what we are used to but they were fresh, tasty and the peanut sauce spot on. My Pho Xen was so good, bowl filled right to the top, stuffed with goodies and piping hot. The lovely K had the Beef rib Pho and it was absolutely excellent. The decor was understated, but very nice. The fact that they were mopping the floor when we arrived shows that they take pride in their cleanliness. We will absolutely be back the next time we are back in Campbell River, we still can't believe our luck! Would have given them 6 stars if we could have, it was that good.

The beef phos are a great choice for any occasion and the hearty mains they have of fusion Vietnamese food are a great choice. Dishes are always served in good time, never having to wait long between your starters and mains and the flow is always great without any of the servers rushing you. Servers are always ready with recommendations and service is fast. Nhau also serves alcohol and cocktails. A great Vietnamese place for casual dining with an impressive array of Vietnamese food.

Yelp maps said it was more than 2 kilometres away, so not sure what happened there. Moxies did not disappoint, and our server Shaye was absolutely excellent. Outgoing, friendly and very good at what she did. Even took the time to make sure K's veggies were cooked on the more well done side that she prefers. Kudos to the kitchen also, for making it happen, small details matter. Her steak was cooked perfectly, and the mashed potatoes very nice. My Beet salad was very well made although I prefer my beets to be a little more al dente. The blackened chicken was good, if perhaps a little over. I believe they use a seasoned breast, which is not my favourite. Our beverages were nicely made, that said wine is difficult to mess up, but a good martini is not easy. The decor is typical Moxies, they are all pretty much the same. That said familiarity is often comforting, and we certainly felt that way. We will be back for sure.

It was a very nice change. Dined in a spacious lounge off set from the crowded main room suggested by the host. Service was 5 star and it was excellent way to spend lunch.
