We came here for lunch. When you walk in, you head straight to the counter to place your order. The staff will bring your food to you. I got a crispy cod wrap and a milk (blackberry flavor). The crispy cod was ok. I think I definitely made a mistake ordering that. There was hardly any cod in the wrap. The lettuce in the wrap wasn't drained properly so it was wet and made the overall wrap kind of soggy. I really liked the milk shake here. It was very tasty and I would definitely come back again for the milkshake. B ordered the philly steak poutine. I tried a bit of the philly steak poutine and it was a lot tastier than my cod wrap that is for sure. Overall I think it really depends on what you get here. I do enjoy the philly steak poutine and the milkshake. Stay away from any healthy looking options that you see on their menu.

Great pizza, nice service, retro style. Amazing atmosphere as like as from Hollywood films. I would like the same restaurant in my city.

We love this place! Their burgers, fries, onion rings, milkshakes are epic!! I fed them to my…read morehusband when he was in hospital!! Staff are awesome!! If you want to eat there they have some picnic tables outside and it's sweet, installed by my Rotary Club!!

there's something about a road trip that makes me crave things like milk shakes, fries, onion rings…read moreand burgers but being a vegetarian (that makes exceptions for bacon) means i often have few options when it comes to hole in the wall places. not so with pkls! i came in thinking their burgers were all beef and i was primed to just get onion rings or fries and a milkshake but i did a complete u turn when i realized there were beef, black bean, chicken and impossible burger options! i opted for a nathan's single to go and took it two blocks away where i ate next to the beach. [although i'm writing this review for a burger place i'll just say that snickett park is a great place to enjoy your take out of the weather is right.] this is definitely a take out place but the group of guys before me got handed their burgers and literally started chowing down before they had walked away so not sure if they were inanely hungry or overly excited about the food they'd ordered. there was a steady stream of what looked like locals coming in and placing orders right before noon so i'm going to assume this is a place that is on the radar of people in town when they get a certain hankering. for me, it served the purpose and it was tasty. i was back on the road after some time down at the water but if you're going to be in the vicinity of sechelt or passing through and need some all american menu items, they can help you out. one star off for the handwritten menu that's difficult to read and make sense of in places...i think that could be improved upon.

This is my second time there! It's a bit pricey but worth it. Staff is wonderful and gave my son…read morewater while we waited. The milkshakes were good but pricey. I ordered the king with a raspberry margarita and it was great, my blue cheese slider was a bit dry but tasty, the wings and other sides were hot and crispy. The other burgers and fries were delicious, my husband said it was the best burger he's had. the only thing I would change is one of the patios was so hot and the umbrellas didn't add enough coverage so a large tent would be better.

Met some friends here for dinner after a wonderful dinner the night before at another local place…read moreserving far different fare. The interior is very plain, and somewhat looks thrown together, and that's ok. It's not trying to be anything other than what it is, no apologies. When your claim to fame is a dinner, or lunch, on top of a Caesar in a glass, you are kind of throwing up your middle in defiance aren't you. The service was good, everything was well taken care of. The food itself is good and quite abundant. K's wings were very nicely cooked and quite plump. The sauce was meh, but that's a personal choice. The taco salad, which we shared was quite good as well, but the taco chips could have been of a better quality, or better yet made in house. My beef dip was pretty good, not fatty at all which is a turn off for me. Fries were abundant, but the au jus needed a helping hand. Our guests had wings as well and a hot chicken sandwich. Both were quite good as well. I could have seen a five star, and it was quite close, just not quite there. We'd go again though next time we are in Parksville!
