    fish & sweet potato fries
    Cameron C.

    The food was tasty and in the $20 range per entree. The liquor drinks seemed a little light, but maybe that's a good thing. The Service was attentive and friendly, but not intrusive. The ambience was a little on the crowded side, but i love the development it's in. Bring your charge cord, there are 120V outlets & USB outlets at the table.

    We were on our way home from Bridal Falls and ended up at Bow and Stern in Chilliwack for dinner: Poutine Salmon Cake Entree Mac n' Cheese with Lobster Usually, my daughter and I are sharing an order of poutine and since I don't eat meat I always order a Vegetarian or Vegan gravy to go on top. This time, we were all having separate orders for ourselves. Since my daughter eats everything, she had no issues with ordering this Poutine, after I inquired about the gravy and learned that it was a meat gravy. After eating it though, she decided that she much prefers all of the Vegetarian and Vegan gravies that she usually eats, when she's sharing poutine with me. Salmon Cake was flavourful with good texture and mashed potatoes were very fluffy. The side vegetables were a bit bland though. Mac n' Cheese with Lobster was very tasty but the lobster meat was somewhat scarce, and the lobster meat that they did put in was shredded. I'd have preferred bigger chunks of lobster meat as opposed to the shredded meat that they used. I had hoped to see big chunks of red dispersed throughout the meal. I saw barely anything at all that was red in this dish. Would I order the Mac n' Cheese here again? Yes, but only the plain version. I wouldn't bother adding lobster meat or anything else into it again. Service: Good Parking: Free parking on the street Location: 46130 Yale Rd., Chilliwack, BC

    Rustic bricks designs. 2 level with bars seatings and regular seatings. All assortments of seafood. We were greeted and seated efficiently. All servers were courteous and helpful.

    Braised beef & seafood pasta

    The hubby and I decided to have a day date in Chilliwack - couldn't find a place that sparked our interest until we stumbled upon bow & stern. And let me say, 100% super glad we stumbled because the ambiance was beautiful, the hostess and waitress were amazing .. catered to my indecisive needs of moving tables. (Sorry!) And lastly, the food was soo yummy! Best poutine ever we also ordered calamari that was lightly battered. As for our main dishes - he had the braised beef and I had the seafood pasta. All to die for! We will make the hour and a half drive often just to eat here from now on .. can't wait till Brentwood is open, hoping it's just as good!

    Bow and Stern Fish and Chips

    While visiting friends in Chilliwack we came upon the Bow and Stern in a new revitalised area of downtown Chilliwack. We have eaten at the Bow and Stern in Abbotsford and really enjoyed it. A cool Yaletown, warehouse type vibe. Super friendly staff and great service! We had the fish and chips which was excellent. This is a great date night spot or a place to hang out and catch up with friends. Next time we are in Chilliwack, we will be back!

    Seafood platter

    We came for a birthday celebration, and even without a reservation (on a Saturday), we were quickly seated upstairs. We ordered a seafood platter that consisted of crabs, shrimp, and clams. The food was good, albeit the crab had an odd texture like it was undercooked. It was very soft, but perhaps just a regional taste that I'm not used to. Overall, lackluster atmosphere as we were the only guests upstairs at the time. Rustic, yet coastal decor, and nice view. The service was decent.

    We split the halibut fish and chips and the cob salad. The halibut was delicious, just enough crunchy breading, and the fish was cooked to perfection. The fries were good, not great, with ketchup and really tasty tartar sauce. The cob was a work of art. Watermelon radish slices, bacon, feta cheese, six perfectly cooked prawns, and remoulade sauce covered the spring greens. So good I forgot to take a picture. Hannah was a cheerful friendly attentive server who made several suggestions to improve our experience.

    A popular gem along one of the hippest streets in Chilliwack is Bow and Stern. This is the perfect spot to catch a good drink and sefood! There are so many great options to choose from and they even have happy hour throughout the week too! The raw oysters were part of the happy hour deal for $1.50 each. And they were FRESH!! And we doubled down on the oyster by ordering the po'boy too and it was the best decision ever! The oysters in the sandwich are so plump, juicy and fried just right! And for some greens they have this tremendously stacked seafood salad!! There were soo much seafood that included crab meat, prawns, and halibut. There are also plenty of outdoor patio space at the restaurant for you to enjoy a nice outdoor dining. This is one of restaurant that will call you back for more no matter how far the ride is!

    A taste of pure delight at Ripples Winery & New Wave Distillery! From the refreshing Blueberry…read moreLavender Mockjito to the incredible Gin Flight featuring Disillusion, Lunar, Cascade, and the monthly special, every sip was a joy. And the food? That Butter Board with house wine jelly and the unforgettable Whipped Feta with Baked Peaches & Pistachios stole the show! Plus, their Mexican Street Corn Salad was the perfect fresh bite. So impressed by their commitment to local ingredients and sustainability. The service was wonderful with the staff - knowledgable with their offerings and checking in with us time to time. Thanks! The beautiful decor of their outdoor dining space made the experience even more special. It was a first time but not the last, next time we are in Abbotsford.

I reserved a table on a OpenTable and had to wait for about 10 minutes to be sat down. All tables were full, and the table we were led to was very hot and blinded by the sun. We asked the server once another table left if we could move to a table that has a sun umbrella and some decent shades, she said no because another party reserved it and had already arrived. I was confused and told her I also made a reservation, so how come another reserved party has higher priority than us. She then apologized and said she didn't know I had a reservation (even I told her from the get go), and eventually arranged us to move. We ordered drinks and snacks. My cocktail came rather promptly, but my husband waited for 45 minutes for his sparkling wine flight, and they gave him a wrong order of red wine flight. He had to wait another 15 minutes, so totally one bloody hour for the correct sparkling wine flight. We ordered the whipped feta with fig & blueberry compote, and after an hour long they came another wrong order, the whipped feta with baked peaches and pistachios. It tasted decent, but it was still the wrong order nonetheless. The server just kept on saying kitchen is super busy and servers are insanely exhausted today. She didn't even offer to give us the new correct dish, or do anything to make up for it.

There is definitely at least one back room, but the main dining room is a bright, airy space that has access to a patio where may even be some live music playing. The tables are gorgeous - all live edge, which might create a bit of an issue if you have short arms and are used to stealing bites across the table, but they are absolutely beautiful and a nice nod to the area. The wine list is extensive and a bit overwhelming, but the service is happy, friendly, and very knowledgeable. In fact, I love when servers don't know, admit it, and find the answer for you - it's humble and shows they really care at getting you what you want. We got the orange wine, which is a new favorite of mine. It's like a rose for reds. Rose:White::Orange:Red. More savory, still light, and best chilled. We had the beet hummus app, which is definitely best eaten with your hands. It's light and delicious. We had the miso black cod, a personal favorite, and the lasagna for dinner and while both were good, the accoutrements with the cod were the true standout. Amazing and I could probably eat two of them. As the restaurant operates on a seasonal menu, we had a strawberry rhubarb cobbler for dessert. I know there is Sunday Brunch, and I can't wait to try it. It's not the cheapest, but it's one of the nicer restaurants in Whatcom, and is definitely worth your pennies. Everything about it makes for a truly nice experience, and we'll definitely be back.
