    another fine seán establishment that julia will be frequenting (the other being open outcry!)…read more thank you a for always appeasing to whatever restaurant choice i pick. tho she does say that my choices are often good...i haven't slipped up yet so let's keep it that way. shoutout MUST be given to teagan (spelling?) for being the best server. helpful, fun and attentive but not in a creepy "im watching you" kinda way! there were def some drinks that caught our eye frm the menu. a relived her childhood fav - the shandy! i had a sip and it is very easy on the palate - that lemonade adds a refreshing citrus note to the drink. i, ofc, had the gunpowder & tonic. i had a double, no regrets! then a decided to try the dirty snakebite - ribena makes it dirty and for those who know, you know i ended up having the same as my last drink but only as a half pint - so thank you teagan for informing me of that! was the dirty snakebite as lethal as the menu says - no. it is VERY easy to keep drinking it tho - the ribena adds a subtle sweetness to the drink that makes it that much more palatable. before this drink, i had the peach & orange ketel one spritzer - the peach shines through the whole drink tho not in an artificial way. another easy drink to down - i guess we were on a roll for drinks! now for food! for appies, we had the preserved seafood and posh toast. conservas aka preserved seafood are basically the canned seafood that we see at the stores - obvsly the ones at irish heather are not your run of the mill ones. we had the mejillones en escabeche #130 - smoked mussels. the mussels were smoked to perfection with a nice of hint of char. the toast that came with the dish was on point - not too burnt compared to the posh toast. the mussels were also creamy in the mouth, not something you'd expect frm canned seafood. the posh toast was nice minus the super burnt toast. the spinach and artichoke spread was on point - it almost reminded me of an egg salad spread! then the star main - the stacked corned beef sandwich. i'm sure most know how much i rave abt the corned beef - it was the same quality, same taste and same flavour that i fell in love with. as a and i shared, we added extra corned beef to make a monster corned beef sandwich. that was the best decision along with added the chili cheese to our fries. often cheese sauces can be too salty, it was the opposite in this case! best food/carb coma ever and another go-to pub to add to julia's repertoire

    Lordy lordy! This place is NOT it. Definitely not worth going to the sketchy side of town for. I…read morecame in, the place was 90% empty and it took me 10 minutes to get a drink. And yes, I was sitting at the bar. Then the bartender disappeared for a long time while it looked like a few people were waiting for service. My Kilkenny seemed flat. Have you seen the food menu? Uninspired to say the least, and the kitchen was closing up at 9:00. These people do not care.

    It's a busy place at a wonderful location. Many cruises leave there at this time of year for the…read moreshort Alaska cruising season. The restaurant and the bar were packed. They serve a traditional bar menu with burgers and wraps, wings and more. There were 15 beers on tap. I ordered a new menu item, smashed burger double stack. 2smashed burger patties with a nice slab of american cheese, shredded lettuce, plenty of pickles, their special sauce, all on a sesame charcoal bun. The bun looks a bit weird, almost black, but it tastes wonderful. It comes with fries. The Fat Tug IPA, by a local brewery Driftwood. Good stuff.

On the day of the event, everything was done well - we preordered food and that came out fairly quickly, the server they had assigned for our group (Irina) did a wonderful job making sure everyone had their drinks. The setting is incredible as one of the organizers wanted to showcase that beautiful Vancouver views. Food was a good representation of the multicultural fabric that is Vancouver - Beet dip with Naan, Beef sliders, Fish tacos. It is pub food and it was great. We also ordered drinks and there was a surprising spectrum of drinks available for less than 15 dollars covering all categories (beer, wine, zero proof and cocktails). The restaurant helped us stay within our event budget and the server regularly coordinated with me to make sure I was informed. We were also able to get an itemized receipt easily after. If you're planning an event consider Mahony's as they did a great job all around making it a success. Our participants really loved the convenience of the location which allowed them to take public transportation like Skytrain, Seabus or Rideshares/Taxis home easily after.

That should be a plug for them to consider offering me an extra pint at every visit Anyway, the food.... Oh the food!!! That chicken swich, ask for extra chicken, was moist, flavourful, and filling. Sunday roast is pretty decent, again, wish I asked for more meat. Breakfast always takes me to London, game day, nostalgic comfort food. Curry fries, must must try, so too the beef dip

When I came out the waiter motioned me to the door, I indicated I was with the fellow sitting down. The waiter said they wouldn't be serving us today. The time us 6pm at this time, dinner was on the agenda. I asked the waiter why, but at first he wasn't forth coming. It took a number of requests before he told me they wouldn't be serving my partner as he had enough alcohol. I laughed as we just got back from looking at a vehicle in queensborouh landing and we were both stone cold sober. We told the waiter but he refused to serve us. I believe the waiter was being a judgemental, pompous ass and discrimating to my partner. I will not be returning or recommending this establishment. We are now at The Park having an amazing time with good food, drinks and excellent service. Highly recommend The Park.

    Food (Drinks): 1/3 Service: 0/1…read moreAmbience: 0/1 For being a pub on Granville Street it really is absolutely not up to par with any of the other options in the area. Firstly when we arrived nobody greeted us for I would say about 10 minutes even though the place was quite empty when we arrived, and when we finally received a table we were seated at a table that was wobbly, and the menus we received were stained and sticky, which got me immediately on edge about hygiene and made me uncomfortable. For drinks selection - nothing special that you can't get anywhere else, and the place being quite empty the vibe was quite boring too. I just felt uncomfortable being there and there isn't anything special about this pub that you can't get better anywhere else. We finished the one drink that we got and headed elsewhere. I wouldn't recommend this spot.

Features bar seating, booths, comfy chairs with fireplace, and an upper level with large table seating for big groups. Had many a great night here over many years as it provided a nice respite from all the crazy nightclub activity on Granville St. Sadly, they will be closing soon and will be dearly missed. The memories of the Morrissey Pub will live on in those who frequented it, and I will cherish mine.

    NOT SO HAPPY HAPPY HOUR…read more We popped into the Wolf and Hound Irish Pub, which boasts on its website that it's "a good place to hide from the yogis" (not the smartest way to endear itself to this particular neighbourhood!) for some mid-afternoon scran. Between the two of us we ordered deep-fried pickles, poutine, "slow-roasted Angus beef yorkies with crisp onions and au jus", a side of fries and one soft drink. For $8, we got 4 slices of dill pickle (likely one pickle in total) breaded and deep-fried with ranch dip. This was the most successful item because it seemed to be freshly made and hot. At $2 a piece it was wildly overpriced. The mini poutine ($7) was disappointing. The chips were okay, but the cheese was clearly not the required "squeakers", more likely plain old mozzarella, and the gravy was oddly flavoured and unsatisfying. Half of it was left in the bowl uneaten. The so-called yorkies ($9) with so-called slow-roasted Angus beef were a joke. Straight out of the freezer via the microwave without a doubt. The two tiny yorkies were flat and tough. If they'd ever had the famous yorkie puff and lightness it was long gone. The beef was tough and lifeless. And the "au jus" - extremely salty and my guess is it was, not long ago, a powder in a packet to which hot water was added before arriving at our table in a tiny pitcher. I would honestly be embarrassed to serve that dish to anyone. The side chips ($4) were adequate. They arrived hot, at least. One soft drink ($3.25) was served in a glass with a few small ice cubes. It was not cold. At least we didn't get a can plopped down in front of us like at many places. Service: he took our order and he delivered it to our table. No inquiry how everything was, no "Would you like anything else?" No "How was everything?" when we paid. (We gave up waiting for a bill at the table and went to the bar to pay.) He seemed to be the only server in the place and there were several people at the bar, so perhaps they kept him busy. Servings were small and are perhaps mini versions of what is served at full price during non-Happy Hour. I hope so. Our total bill for a decidedly unsatisfactory repast was $33.04 with tax. The Wolf and Hound is in our neighbourhood and we wanted to give it a try. We like to avoid the chain restaurants and want to patronize local independents. Unfortunately, if this was indicative of the

But after reading some reviews I followed a small side path that led to the back of the building to which there was a door bell that said Emerald dragon on it. You can ordee via Uber eats or door dash. Doing pickup had no additional fees luckily (except taxes of course). I wish you could also call in to order. There was a phone number on the order app ( I used Door dash) but when I called to find out how to find them , the number was not in service. After ringing the doorbell, a worker came out to confirm who the order was for ( there were a few people standing around) and then after maybe 6 to 8 min ( after the app said my order was ready) , I was given the goods. There is not much proper Parker as many of the spots were for a different shop , so if you picked up by foot or came with someone that you could hop out and in of the car, that worked best. We got the munch of course as I had seen it on social media and looked like a good variety. It came withba large bag of prawn crackers and choice or a 6 -8 oz container or sweet and sour sauce or curry sauce. I think the more authentic way is to get the curry sauce but I love a good sweet and sour for my fries and fried chicken items! With no store front and we were quite far from home , we opted to eat in the car to taste it hot and fresh. It smelled so good. Unfortunately there was no napkins or utensils even though I requested it. Napkins were a no biggie but there is half the box lined with fried rice which we couldn't really eat. Everything else was hand pickable. There was a several chicken balls ( chicken inside was a but dry), chicken tenders like pieces ( nicely seasoned, crispy), and veggie spring rolls( basic, crunchy). The star of thw show was the 'Irish spice bag' seasoned fries. Standard Costco type fries mixed with a spicy , garlicky seasoning and it was soo good !! It filled the other half od the box and even though I was full , I could eat a but of it anytime. I even tried the fries cold thw next day and they still tasted good- that was the true test. This was great value for a small group gathering/ snack and I am intrigued with the other menu items. Would come back go try again if I'm in the area!
