Good times, great pizza, fun staff!
Alex D.

Serious NY pizza! Amazing ingredients, high quality and extremely tasty. Couple this with delicious drinks and super friendly service. This is Whistler's BEST PIZZA restaurant by a kilometer or mile, ha ha. Can't wait to return. Well done, HandleBar!

Nice outdoor seating

I took my family here while visiting Whistler based on the reviews we read and we were definitely not disappointed. They have a nice variety of offerings that they can sell by the slice in a short amount of time. The staff was super friendly and the service was very efficient. My only slight complaint is that the slices I ordered were a tiny bit undercooked for me. I like a really crisp crust and mine had a bit of a "flop". Everyone else in my group got slices that were super crispy so I guess I was just unlucky. Nevertheless, I definitely recommend this place for its great food and service at a reasonable price point.

Spicy Calbreze, whiteout with honey drizzle and homemade Ranch dressing,

Love this place! Service is fantastic, pizza is even better! Whiteout pizza with honey drizzle. Sesame seed crust is the best ever. Thanks Laney for taking such good care of us!

Calabrisi?

The pizza here is (surprisingly) delicious! I got lucky because when I went in it was pretty open and they had a bunch of pizzas ready for slices. By the time I left, they only had on pizzas that was ready for slices. The slices were around $4 US - which I think is a great deal around here! 10/10 would eat again

We've wanted to try the pizza here for a while now. Service was quick and the pizza was delicious! We decided to The crust was thin and crisp and the cheese was so tasty. It was almost like a cheesy garlic bread in pizza form. We would definitely come back.

We had friends from the Philippines visiting us, took them to Whistler for the day such a beautiful drive, great weather. While walking, we chanced upon the HandleBar Cafe and Apres. We ordered half and half of Hawaiian & Pepperoni Pizza. We seated ourselves outside watching the beautiful scenery around us. The pizza was made to perfection, thin crust with a bit of burnt edges which added another layer of deliciousness. The waitress was very nice, cheerful, friendly and very welcoming she kept checking on us on how we were doing, if we needed anything else. We highly recommend this pizza place, if you are in the area, give them a try and you won't get disappointed.

Best Après spot in the village! They had a great selection of beers and some tasty snacks. But the atmosphere was the best part.

Our visit to Black's Pub started off a little shakily. The young host who greeted us was very nice,…read morebut when we asked for a quieter table on the end, we were seated downstairs in an area where crows were aggressively going after the tables. He didn't seem to fully understand what we were looking for, and it would have been helpful if he had mentioned the upstairs patio, which turned out to be exactly what we wanted. Downstairs, Chloe provided excellent service inside (away from crows) and her warm service really turned the experience around. We enjoyed cocktails there, then closed out our tab before heading upstairs. The upstairs outdoor area was much quieter and far more relaxing. The young man serving us upstairs could not have been nicer, and we had a beautiful view of the mountain bikers coming down the mountain. The pizzas were excellent, and the overall atmosphere upstairs was fantastic. Black's Pub has a great location, excellent cocktails and food, and outstanding service. The arrival experience could have used a little more attention, but once we discovered the upstairs patio, the experience was absolutely five-star.

(Kari's Rating 7.5/10)…read more Get the hot honey pizza!!! Came with a group of 8 people around 2 o'clock and got seated upstairs on the patio. It was a little chilly but they had the heaters on above. We ordered the truffle fries and the poutine. Truffle fries were perfectly crispy and the garlic aoli was spot on. Very delicious. The poutine I'm not a huge fan of by itself, but it was visually more appealing than Longhorns which I had a day ago. Again, it's just soggy fries. Ordered the hot honey pizza, double pepperoni parmesan and the bbq. Was not aware the barbecued had pineapple on it, but we powered through as a group. Every single piece of pizza so this is just the right amount for eight people.

(Kari's Rating 5.5/10)…read more Came here with a group of 8 for an aprés ski and they charged half of us coming in a $10 cover just "because it started getting busy." Which it wasn't inside at all where our table was. Very loud and rowdy and the dj played the same parts of songs over the three hour time span we were there. Our server was half attentive, but she kept wandering off when we wanted to order more drinks-which just kind of made it difficult. We couldn't find our server for the rest of the night so we ordered from other random servers. We ordered a few buckets of beer and two poutine's. Which ended up being $48 for two small bowls that's essentially just really soggy fries- But to each their own. It's not the restaurants fault, it's what we ordered. We did order the regular truffle fries and they were much better! We also did a round of green tea and tequila shots, all shots were $12. Pretty cool for a first time experience but probably wouldn't come back, as it's overly crowded, champagnes flying everywhere and the bottle service sparklers were so strong it smelled a little like chemicals -but fun while we were here.

Great service and good bar food. Loved the patio with panoramic mountain views…read more Wings were good but not great. I'd say everything I saw looked good for bar food though!

We got here after 8+ pm for a late dinner after off-roading in the Squamish valley. The place was…read morebig and luckily it was not full house as it was a weeknight. There were many tvs and a big screen projector showing the hockey game. Then I noticed Canucks jerseys hanging from the rafter and on the walls. Ok, so sports was big here. It was not rowdy though. We sat away from the main dining hall and got a corner table near the entrance. Service was ok, took a while for the requested extra napkins to come. Our server forgot about it. Guessed it was busier in the main hall which was on a spilt level up. Food wise, it was decent food in a neighborhood pub. Not a huge selection but it had the typical food here so everyone should be able to get something they like. The calamari was surprisingly good. Tender lightly battered squid, not rubbery at all. The whiskey bbq ribs with fries and slaw were good too. The wild BC salmon burger with clam chowder was so-so. I wished the salmon was a bit less over cooked. Salmon was lightly charred outside and unfortunately the inside was a bit hard. At least not too dry. I would prefer the salmon to just have a light crisp with the inside being 70-80% cooked. The miso glaze was nice though. The clam chowder as the side was bad as it did not taste like it at all. It was more of a cream of vegetables soup with some bits of clams in it. That was a disappointment. Fries or salad for the side in future. I also had the Moscow mule. It had real ginger bits in it. I didn't care for that as you kept getting them in every sip and they were real gingery spicy. Not a place I would make a special trip for, but a decent place for a meal when passing by. They open till 12 midnight or 1 am. Nice sized parking lot in front and back of the building.
