Beef dip

Stopped here at the end of a long day for dinner with kids. Even though they were about to close, they were kind enough to seat us. The food here is super mediocre. My beef dip was meh, and all the burgers were meh. The little one got chicken fingers and those were actually tasty. We were surprised that the kid's meal came with a dessert, so that was fun for the kids, though they'd already gone next door for ice cream by the time we found out. I will say, though, that the night we were there, there was a little street festival happening, and it was nice to sit outside and listen to the vocal stylings of Scott Jacobs while we ate.

The Hollandaise sauce on the Eggs Benedict was delicious. Fast, friendly service and great food.

It took a long time to get our food, which was average at best. Really overpriced as well. Won't be back.

Pastimes Sports Bar & Grill - Turkey dinner was excellent and plentiful

Pastimes Sports Bar & Grill

We typically don't have dinner at the hotel we are staying at as it seems to us that either the…read morefood, or the service, are not up to the standards of stand alone restaurants. Definitely not the case at Pastimes on our visit this evening. Our server Teresa was excellent, even though she was quite busy. She happily answered our questions about the food, and the choices we were going to make. We shared a house salad which was plentiful and had a nice accompaniment of dried cranberries and almonds. Both items are things that are often scrimped upon as they are complimentary items that aren't an inexpensive addition. For our mains I got the meatloaf with mashed potatoes, and the lovely K the turkey dinner. Both were excellent, with the meatloaf wrapped by bacon, likely the local Hertel variety which was incredible. Real mashed potatoes and veggies cooked to my perfect taste along with gravy. Easy 5 out of 5, as was K's turkey, also accompanied by mashed potatoes and veggies. The decor is pure sports bar, but the sound on the tv's was down so you could actually talk without the usual noise. The Canucks were in Nashville so we watched the game and enjoyed a very very nice meal. Sadly we couldn't finish it all, and with a travel day tomorrow we had to send it away, what a shame. We will most definitely be back the next time we are in Port Alberni.
