In fact, it was so good for lunch, I decided to make a return trip this evening for dinner -- and both meals were phenomenal. For lunch, I tried the tofu sandwich, and I have seldom enjoyed a sandwich more. It came on their in-house baked whole-grain bread, along with tomato, fresh greens, hummus, a light balsamic dressing, and a lemon tahini spread. For dinner, I ordered their enchilada -- and not only was it delicious, it was enormous. Although I had to wait about 30 minutes for a table because it was so busy, this was a great final meal in St. John's. Highly, highly recommended -- you won't be disappointed.

I'll echo what the other reviewer said. This isn't fine dining, it's basically take-out grade food…read more-however with those expectations- it's fine enough fare. I had a beef kabab as an appetizer ($3.99) and the chicken curry as a main course ($7.83)- very reasonable prices for a sit-down restaurant. The curry was nothing to rave about- microwaved and pretty basic. Maybe it would have some pizzaz if it was fresh. But as a healthy alternative to Quiznos, Mr. Sub or all the deep-fried fish in this town- it's decent food. I loved the kabab, though, spicy beef and veggies covered with a sauce and served on a hot pita-style naan. These would be a hit if served chicken-shawarma-style to university kids. When I go back I'll probably just buy a couple of these as my meal. Give the place a try.

Biggest waste of 30$+ I've spent in months. I had the Mediterranean bowl and added falafel. There was more quinoa than anything else in there, the greens were half off and there was most definitely no falafel in the bowl. We also ordered the teriyaki something or other and I added chicken. also awful. No sauce that I could find and the only saving Grace was the chicken. They broccoli was yellow and it was lacklustre. Highly disappointed for what I spent and it went right in the garbage . I even added things to it once I got home to try and make it better but alas..

Between the two options, I prefer the bagel as the cream cheese adds a satisfying bite and makes it less dry compared to the chicken sandwich. This restaurant is located in a house at the corner of the street, with two patio sections on either side. When you walk in, it appears cozy with limited seating. However, if you walk to the right through the door, there is ample seating next door and a self-serve water station.

I had my eye on the PB&J burger that I had seen on Yelp, as peanut butter is my favorite thing ever! This burger did not disappoint. While the combo sounds strange, the flavors were well-balanced with the brie cheese, caramelized onions and bacon. The meat was cooked to a perfect medium and the hamburger bun was soft. I chose the kettle chips for my side, and they tasted house made. Very delicious! The only thing I didn't like about this burger was the price tag = $22. Hubby had the seafood chowder for $17 and it was enough for a full meal. He said the chowder was very flavorful and full of seafood. He was in heaven! We both ordered a Quidi Vidi 1892 amber ale on draft. They only had 7 beers on tap and I wished that they had a medium or dark beer, but this area doesn't seem to be big on that. They do have Guinness in a can, if that's your thing. Service was friendly and the food came out relatively fast. The booths were comfy and the pub reminded me of a cozy neighborhood bar. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!

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.
