Review Visit: July 16th, 2015…read more The Cowardly Lion may find some courage here after three drinks. What do you do in a little town that doesn't have much to do? You visit the bars, of course! That is what my cousin and I did on this particular day. After we woke up and figured out the plans for the day, we headed in to town to see what could kill an afternoon. After walking around for about 45 minutes and visiting a few shops, the Three Lions Pub reared its head. Feeling a bit parched in the summer sun, we wandered in for a cool refreshing beverage. I was expecting your typical bar that hasn't seen upgraded in years. One that has it's own unique smell/feel to it. What we got was a bar inspired by British Culture. It reminded me of the Fox Pub in Peoria, IL. Lots of British decor strewn about the place. I knew this place was awesome from just the theme. While we were there, we took stroll around the bar to fully take it in. This was a place I wish we had back home. It just felt like a place you and your friends would love to come to for hanging out. Andy and I grabbed a seat at the bar and decided that while in Canada we would try some beer that we can't get at home. After looking over the beers available and trying to figure out what beer was what, we both settled on a Rickers Red. It was on tap and the pour lever was right in front of us. The hearty bartender filled two glasses and put them down in front of us. This beer was a red that would've made a vampire jealous. It was a semi-dark red that wasn't unlike blood from a small cut. Andy and I cheered our beers to making it to Nakusp safe and sound and we started drinking. The first sip was the one to adjust your taste buds and mind to the new and exciting flavors. The gulps that came after were because it was dang delicious. We both enjoyed every sip and every gulp we took. Before too long, our tall beers were gone and our body well-rested in the cooled environment. It wasn't until I wrote this blog that I learned this place sold food as well. Whether that is from the bar or the seemingly attached restaurant, I don't know. I would assume the restaurant, though. I am bummed that I will probably never return to Nakusp to find out what they offer for food and see if they also offer British varieties.

Sept 30/25 - Three Lions Pub in Nakusp by far the worse meal I've had in a long time. The chicken…read morewings (salt & pepper) were so dry and burnt that there was no meat on the bone. Asked for honey mustard dip and got some other strange concoction. The potato skins were equally as dry, burnt and tasteless. The server (Lee) debated everything we asked her. I'm a connoisseur of fine food and this food was disgusting. I almost just got up and left when I saw what it looked like and should have left after tasting the first bite! Also, terrible service! She did nothing when she saw that I left my meal. Took her 30 minutes to clear the table when we got there and 40 minutes to get our terrible meal. Very slow considering the place was not busy. A complete waste of time and 2 appetizers definitely not worth $40! Will never go back and do not recommend.

Our food was fresh, fast and fair-good in terms of taste and quality. Service was nice and efficient. Prices are reasonable given its slope side location, to be expected pricing.

Speakeasy in the basement of Crown & Thieves Winery!…read more This speakeasy transports you back to the prohibition era. The servers are dressed in flapper attire, and they offer cabaret performances after the winery closes (see events calendar)! Their simple menu consists of classic cocktails, I ordered the Bees Knees. Snacks include pork rinds, fries, and other nibbles. Happy hour is half off bottles of wine from 3pm- 5pm. They also have events listed on a monthly calendar posted in crown &thieves and all of their sister wineries (ie. The hatch, the hatchery etc). Definitely worth a visit during your trip to the Okanagan!

There are a few food items on the menu too. It's always a good time here. They will bring in a DJ for special events and always have football on. Don't forget to ask about the Jell-O shots!

I think their drink special was an upgrade to a double for a lesser price. I'd say DO NOT fall for their scam. Light pours for a single at best but at the price of a double.

There are limited choices Sunday and Monday in Grand Forks, so you have to be open minded. We were…read moregoing to have dinner here, but the reviews are wide ranging, so we thought we'd stop in for a bowl of soup and a beer and see for ourselves. The building itself is for sale, not sure if that matters or not. The entry is old school, but the interior is very plain and the ceilings are low, so it's noisy. Our server was very quick to get us menus, our requested water arrived quickly as did our beers. No complaints at all with how we were treated. We both ordered the small Borschts, the lovely K with white bread and I the rye. The soup was good, not great, the bread was very good. The presentation of the soup was very average with soup up the side of the bowl. Kind of looked like they had too much in my bowl and poured some in K's. We chose to go to another place (Chinese) for dinner after our experience at Clyde's. Nothing wrong with the place, but nothing stood out other than our server.

Can't go wrong with their food. They have a good variety…read more The servers are friendly and the wait time is good.
