They brought me a dinner salad. I went to the bar to let them know it was wrong and I was told "we are out of chicken strips and she does not have time to cut and bread any more". They then charged me $9 when the salad was $8.50 on the menu. The bartender shrugged when I told him that. They did not offer to make it right. If they were out of chicken strips they needed to tell me that WHEN I ORDERED! Who wants a salad with their beer?!? Be sure to read your receipt! These guys will rip you off. UPDATE: Someone replied below stating, 'Its 50¢ difference cathy.' They completely missed the point. This was never about 50 cents; it was about the poor attitude of the staff and the lack of basic customer service. Their dismissive response perfectly illustrates the exact issue I experienced during my visit.

Tonight I stumbled into the great deals they have on Thursdays ($5 well drinks, $ off of beer and wine). There's always something. They have board games you can sit and play. Indoor seating, a big outdoor patio with heaters to cut the chilled evenings and umbrellas to give shade. It was busy when we arrived around 7 tonight and stayed busy most of the time we were there. You order at the bar but they will bring your food to you when it's ready. Their menu is decent for a small place. Tonight was the first night I had ever eaten the food. Gluten free options are limited but I got the hot honey pizza on a gluten free crust. It. Was. Delicious. Life changing. I ate the whole thing. It was not a personal pan pizza. The combination of flavors...spicy and sweet and salty...one of the best things I have eaten recently. I might go back tomorrow. This is a local, independent, woman-owned business that makes you feel like you can stay a while and like you should come back again soon. They have discounts for military folks and a special section of their menu for dogs. Highly recommend.

The Spot is a true Vancouver neighborhood bar, and people have been coming here for decades. Owner…read moreAlan works incredibly hard for this place. He shows up, he cares, and he has made real efforts to improve the atmosphere. The recent remodel has made the bar lighter, brighter and more welcoming. There are also some genuinely excellent bartenders who represent what The Spot should be. Cindy is phenomenal: professional, attentive and accommodating. Dylan will always hold a special place in my heart because she was the first bartender who took care of Jordan and me after we moved to Vancouver. She immediately made us feel welcome. I have never forgotten that, and that first experience is one of the reasons The Spot became special to me. Unfortunately, my experiences with Ashley have been the complete opposite. Ashley has only been working there for roughly a month, yet in that short time she is already alienating regular customers and damaging the environment Alan is working so hard to build. I have dealt with her more than once, and the service has been consistently rude, dismissive and unprofessional. A couple of Thursdays ago, Ashley was covering for Cindy while Cindy was on vacation. I came in to meet our normal Thursday lunch group, and the difference in atmosphere was unbelievable. Ashley was inattentive and rude to multiple guests. This was not simply one bad interaction between her and me. Other people were having problems with her service and attitude as well. The experience became uncomfortable enough that I eventually left. Today sealed it for me. I had some time before getting tires put on my truck, so I stopped by The Spot for breakfast and a drink. When I walked in and saw her behind the bar, I genuinely considered turning around and leaving, but I decided to give it another chance. That was a mistake. I sat down at the bar. Ashley looked directly at me and continued talking with another guest while she ate her food and got herself something to drink. She made no effort to greet me, take my order or even acknowledge that I was waiting to be served. Then, while I was still sitting there, I watched her smirk with another guest and make comments about me. Eventually, I got up and walked out. I walked into a neighborhood bar ready to spend money, yet the bartender made the experience so uncomfortable that I left without ordering anything. That is not being busy. That is not having an off morning. That is not a personality difference. That is a failure of basic hospitality and professionalism. Bartending is a service profession. Customers do not have to be treated like friends, but they should be acknowledged, treated respectfully and given basic service. You do not have to like every person who walks through the door, but you do have to act professionally. Making a paying customer feel as though being served is some privilege you are granting them is completely backwards. What makes this so concerning is how quickly this has happened. Ashley has been there approximately ONE MONTH, and she is already making longtime customers uncomfortable enough that they are leaving, avoiding her shifts and talking about how unpleasant the atmosphere becomes when she is behind the bar. That should concern anyone who cares about this business. Alan is trying to move The Spot forward. He remodeled it, made it brighter and more welcoming, and continues to show up for his business. Cindy, Dylan and the other professional bartenders have spent years building relationships with customers and creating the neighborhood atmosphere that keeps people coming back. It should not take one new bartender a matter of weeks to start undoing that work. This is bigger than whether Ashley likes me personally. I do not expect my bartender to be my friend. I expect professionalism, respect and service when I walk into an establishment as a paying customer. I will not spend my money somewhere while being deliberately ignored, mocked or made to feel unwelcome by the person whose job is to provide hospitality. At this point, if Ashley is working, I will go somewhere else. Based on what I have personally witnessed, I would highly recommend that anyone planning to visit during the morning shifts check who is behind the bar first. When Cindy is there, when Dylan is there, or when one of the other professional bartenders is working, The Spot can be exactly what a great neighborhood bar should be. That is the bar I know and the reason I keep coming back. But what I have experienced with Ashley is unacceptable. The most frustrating part is that I know The Spot is better than this. Alan deserves better representation behind his bar. The regulars who have supported this place for years deserve better. The Spot should be building loyalty, not allowing a bartender who has barely been there a month to drive loyal customers out the door.

There was only one bartender and she was serving the whole place practically. Lucky for her some more staff showed up and she got some help. They have some really good beers on tap. My buddy liked they had bud light on tap. I got the 22 oz Boneyard and it tasted good and was really cold too. I got the pork quesadilla with some of the happy hour onion rings. They forgot my onion rings when they delivered my quesadilla so they gave me a huge batch of onion rings in a to go box for free. Lol I was like right on. They were hot crispy and delicious. My quesadilla was pretty good. It was huge. I could only eat one quarter of it. It was the cheesiest quesadilla I have ever had. The pork tasted pretty good. My buddy liked his wings but he said they might have been overcooked a little bit. Our bartender was the bomb and so was her sidekick bartender/ dish washer.

Despite having lived in Vancouver for the past 5 years, I had never actually stopped at this place…read more I drive by it all the time and it always looked really fun from the outside. But after moving to vancouver, I had found a Chinese restaurant that would deliver to my house and was closer, so for a while that was the only place I went. But then covid-19 happened. And the former place quit delivering to my home. I initially found this place on GrubHub but really don't like to utilize GrubHub unless I have to do the prices in the food not always showing up hot...so I figured I'd go old school and call in an order and pick it up in person. Before I go into what I ordered, I'd like to wax poetic briefly about Americanized Chinese food. I think you'll find that a lot of Chinese food places have lower Yelp ratings and they tend to have very polarized reviews. People either love the way they do it, or they hate the way they do it. And I believe this is because Americanized Chinese food is so hyper-regional in what is considered normal for takeout. For example, growing up in the southern part of the United states, it wasn't uncommon to see crawfish on a Chinese food menu or bourbon chicken. On the East Coast, General Tso is often called General Gao, ect. And even in the Pacific northwest, the same names are used for dishes that come out very differently from different kitchens. I say this, because a lot of reviews for this place are hyperspecific like that. People complaining that food is spicy for example. Posting pictures of what they believe sesame chicken should look like versus what they got etc. I think what I'm saying is that for a cuisine that at its core was adapted to American pallettes, it's not surprising to see such a wide view. That being said, I have eaten Chinese food all over the United States and parts of Canada and I really really enjoyed this place. If your order is over $38, they throw in a treat! Free crab rangoons. The crab rangoons were crispy and well fried without being too greasy. The cream cheese had a good flavor and wasn't too sweet. I ordered the house fried rice. I usually start off at a new place with house fried rice because despite being a very simple dish, a lot of places don't pull it off very well. Shen Chang pulled it off extremely well. For the price, there was a significant amount of fried rice. The proteins in the rice were large and juicy, and the rice was well seasoned without being one note. My partner ordered the Mongolian chicken. I generally dislike Mongolian chicken at most places as it is often extremely sweet. That was not the case here! When we opened the dish, a smell of chicken and black pepper wafted out and I was honestly surprised. The chicken had a little bit of spice to it and the sauce was very flavorful! We also ordered the pot stickers as an appetizer and they were very large and the dipping sauce was very good. I have to say that this will be my new go to Chinese place. Give it a shot. I can't wait until the interior opens again so I can check out the lounge.
