The majority of the staff look annoyed when they're interrupted from staring at their phones watching TikTok videos or Instagram. The quality of the food is definitely sub-par! The wings are getting smaller every year it seems. The food looks like is was prepared half-assedly with absolutely zero attention to presentation or kitchen pride! Pretty expensive place to eat now as well. Not sure why the prices got jacked up considering the portions and the food quality is much much smaller.

I've been here several times... I absolutely love it!!!! I initially was hooked on the 'create…read moreyour own' (salad, bowl, burrito etc). The unique selections made for my all time favorite salad. I most recently tried the pre-fabricated brown rice bowl designed by Freshi "Oxaco" with falafel - I'm flat-out hooked.. I will be trying lots more off their menu. This week I bought 2 bowls to split with me and my 2 parents, enough for 3.. and they absolutely loved the rice bowl and kale/spinach salads I brought home. They and I will be back! :) If you get the 'make your own salad' be sure you try the lime cilantro vinaigrette dressing!!! The falafel meat option is also amazing. The ingredients are always fresh, like the name implies! You're not getting Subway style tomatoes and lettuce here, if you know what I mean. I've tried their pre-made drinks as well (Mighty Detox (green one))... this truly tastes like you're eating healthy. When I'm feeling blah after having a weekend full of horrible food choices I pick one up on Monday. Their smoothies are also delicious, they're on the simple side, but they don't taste like you're eating a sugared up excuse for a health-smoothie.

We swung by in the early afternoon, just after the lunch crowd at most places would be easing off, but Bannerman was impressively going strong from when we arrived through to our departure! We were seated at one of their picnic-esque tables near the back of the room, taking in the high ceilings and the lovely work done to reuse this historic fire hall. I snagged a half pint of one of their light and refreshing lagers, while my wife partook in their caffeinated offerings. It's nice to be able to get both, and the warm, communal feeling of the space was a nice contrast to the cold and clinical vibe that can sometimes come with Third Wave places. Wanting to refuel after a dizzying hike on the North Head Trail, we ordered the mushroom flatbread, steamed buns, and pierogis. My wife's mushroom flatbread arrived first, with the not-pizza leaning heavily into savoury, earthy flavours with sauteed, locally harvested mushrooms, shaved truffles, and smoked gouda. While I fundamentally disagree with arugula being on pizzas and their brethren, its peppery bite helped cut through the otherwise rich flatbread. While I certainly shared my two apps, I was glad to have them mostly to myself! The food in general isn't inexpensive at Bannerman and $17 for two steamed buns was a bit of a pill to swallow, but the quality was thankfully there to back its price tag. Succulent, shredded pork was jam-packed into the pleasantly-chewy, folded buns, and topped with the contrasting tastes and textures of slices of white onion, crispy onions, and micro greens. The pierogi of the day had a lentil filling, and the savoury legumes lent themselves well to these deep-fried dumplings. The ultra-crispy exterior easily gave way to the doughy interior and the lentils within. Almost stealing the show was the onion confit sour cream, whose velvety smooth airiness had the perfect amount of caramelized onion flavour. Bannerman could/should sell this stuff on its own! Even after just one visit, it's easy to see how Bannerman's combination of craft beer,top-notch coffee, creative bites, and a beautiful space in an award-winning adaptive reuse has made for a place that's more than the sum of its parts, and has become a destination for locals and tourists alike.

Pretty good, but pricey. Their house salad was fantastic, and the bao buns delicious. The problem…read morewith the bao buns was that they contain cilantro and the menu does not say so. I deliberately selected a non-cilantro choice, as one diner has a cilantro aversion. It really should be on the menu, as usually Korean cuisine has zero cilantro. The wings were nothing special, and it was like 6 wings for twenty bucks, so that was not good value. The honey-mayo dip was tasty tho. This is one of those places that starts the tipping at 18%, I know people who don't tip at all when the lowest prompt is 18%. The service was good, so I plugged in 15%, even though I do think its asking too much to start at 18%. It was good, and I might go again, just not order the wings. The salad is really worth it!

You order and pay at the counter, fill your own water jug, and grab your own cutlery before taking a seat. It's a straightforward system and works well if you're looking for a quick meal. We ordered the Pineapple Taco and the Enchilada. The food was nicely presented and tasted fresh, but the flavors were fairly mild and didn't leave much of an impression. It wasn't bad by any means, just not as flavorful as we had hoped. The biggest disappointment was the value. The portion sizes felt quite small for the price, especially considering the self service format. We left wishing there had been either a bit more food or a little more boldness in the dishes to justify the cost. I can see why it may appeal to those looking for lighter fare. For us, though, the food didn't quite match the price point and overall, based on this visit, it was an average experience.
