    Filthy fries
    Anushka B.

    Situated right next to the Langley cineplex and open till 11pm which makes it a good spot to grab food after dinner. Went there on a Tuesday night but the vibes were still fun! They had good music playing and a variety of cocktails. The space is quite big from the inside and can easily accommodate a large party (we were 8 people and did not have to wait to get seating). They indoor and outdoor seating. If you are not a fan of loud music, I would suggest the outdoor seating (it is covered so good during the rain as well). The food was not bad, we got their filthy fries which were advertised as being spicy but there was no spice on it. We ordered the hot sauce on the side which made it better. Their ganjang burger was tasty but really hard to eat! The buns were too small and could not hold the weight on the crispy chicken. The burger was a bit sweet and tangy. Their veggie burger was good too!

    Gluten free chicken sandwich
    Natasha P.

    Had the best gluten free chicken sandwich at the Barley Merchant! They use The Good Flour Co to batter their chicken they use in the fried chicken sandwich. It was packed with flavour and different textures. The filthy fries were really good too - a nice Cajun dusting with some pickled onions, fried onions and mayo - yum! They also had a lot of ciders and gluten free beer on tap! They also had lots of tables inside and on their heated patio.

    After a movie stop for great food and a drink to wet your whistle. This restaurant has only been open for two weeks but I think it is going to be a hot spot where people go to get away, socialize and enjoy being served great food and choose, one or two of 50 beers available. Comfortable decor and plenty of lighting this is going to be one of my list of 10 places to go.

    The food was tasty and priced just right. The overall atmosphere is great for friends to gather. They have an amazing amount of beers on tap. Ample parking as well. A must in the area.

    A craft beer flight from great local breweries
    Jeremy D.

    With so many options for large tap-list venues in the Urban parts of Vancouver, it was good to hear that Langley was getting something going on. The BM has good food options for a group, wine and cocktails for the non-beer crowd. The breweries represented cover a wide geography too, with a special emphasis on areas from Hope to Chiliwack, which makes good sense.

    Flight of happiness

    Finally a place that has enough stout options for a flight of dark beer!!! Great beer & cider collection. I had the TapRoom Burger and it was very good all around, the burger itself was incredible. My friend had the tacos, loved them (she found them a tad spicy but she's a wiener) Not sure how I missed this gem of a place but I'll definitely be back!

    A nice spot to gather with friends for beer flights and food. The ambience is nice, but can be very loud, especially closer to the bar area. The service is good- always coming to check if you need water and took away dishes as we ate. The food was also a nice surprise, as they offered a variety of cuisine (Korean, and Mexican specials for Cinci de Mayo). The beer cheese dip was the only dish that fell flat for me- it left a bitter aftertaste that I was not a fan of. But other than that, it's a good place to check out

    Pulled pork sandwich  I love all the pickles!
    Michael B.

    Stopped in here after another long work day We Hadn't eaten all day and we're looking for a quiet place to wind down & have a quick bite When we walked in it really wasn't what we were looking for but they were open late as other places had already closed so in we went even tho the music was louder than we hoped It all worked out great tho as the meal was great for both of us Sometimes the menu in a pub doesn't satisfy both of us but it did here. Our server was great She was working hard and walking fast to keep up. We did have to wait for things a couple times but not much staff was there so I think she did a great job with how many tables she had. The pulled pork sandwich was excellent !! I loved the stack of pickles on top of lots of flavourful juicy pork The fries were cooked perfectly I had a couple different stouts both were really good The beer selection is pretty great with lots of taps My wife loved the curry chicken dish with beets and pickled ginger Sometimes you just need to go with the flow even when it doesn't seem like what your looking for as this establishment & meal showed me that evening. Cool place with lots of beer choices and cool atmosphere with a large covered patio Can't wait to go for another beer or 2 and try some other menu items ;0)

    Wagyu meatballs!
    Jimmy S.

    Really impressive tap list loaded with BC craft beer, cider and wine. Food was very innovative and delicious. Lots of options you don't see at all the chain restaurants. Had the wagyu meatballs, prosciutto pear flatbread and the cider house chicken. Everything was amazing. Atmosphere was bumpin and it has a great open beer hall vibe. Server was friendly, genuine and knowledgeable. Will be back soon. Lots more on the menu I can't wait to try

It is the worse hard liquor I have ever bought. Lavender?? No, just some slightly amber gin that I can't even mix with anything. Whitley Niell makes a great Parma Lavender Gin that I first tried in a cocktail in Portsmouth UK. It isn't sold in Canada anymore unfortunately and was only for a short period. That was the reason I snapped up the Roots and Wings gin but I am resigned to using it for cleaning. I did try some of their other products and only the Abisnstine impressed me. I would have loved to have given a great review of their liquor but that wasn't possible. Drinking their cocktails is a different thing as they have a great mixologist. My advice- visit them, get a sample before buying, and buy only what tastes good to you. Everyone has different tastes.

I was the only there since it was 1pm on a Monday after all. Was about to grab to an Old Fashion after looking at their online menu, but was then told that they did flights so that's what I got. The flight; You choose six from a list of about 15. They do primarily vodka, but they do have some whiskey, gin, and even am Absinthe. I was very happy with all 6 and would order them again. I won't really go into any detail about each spirit since everyone has their own preference when it comes to alcohol. What I can say is that their Old Fashioned Spirit was my favorite. The service: The person working at the time was really friendly and helpful. Willing to answer questions about the spirits and make recommendations. The distillery: It's small and due to Covid Protocols they're only accepting 6 people in the building; however, they have a lot of outdoor space to enjoy. Their pick-up truck bar is the most eye catching so that's where we sat. I'd 100% come back here and if I lived in Langley I'd probably make this place one of my go to hangouts.

The total came out to be $43.50 plus tip. Fries were plentiful. The restaurant is nice and clean (although I did send my water back due to some dirt or dust in it). The wine list on "copier paper" was wrinkled with food stain on it. That was ghetto considering this calibre of restaurant One cool feature is that you can adjust the lighting at the table by pushing a button on the lamp. Parking is free. Google Maps takes you to parking lot. You may think it's wrong but it's right. Just park and go to east side of building. You'll find door there. Opposite side of building has resto called Camp Beer The service was good, and the atmosphere was lively with a nice crowd. Besides the food, I think it might be a great spot to hang out at the bar for drinks. There was a crowd starting to form at bar. I do encourage others to support this buisness vs the chain resto's of a similar calibre

I could taste the guava and the spice on the rim of the glass was perfectly paired with the drink Food - :: Parmesan plenta fries - was so excited to try it, I wasn't sure what to expect.

I would give it a 4/5 it was really creamy and the chicken was cooked well but I don't think it was seasoned that well. I would say for the portion size and the food, it was a bit overpriced but definitely 5/5 for the ambiance!

We sat indoors with the option to be seated outdoors with heated lamps but we didn't want to smell the smoke from people smoking outside. We ordered the Dark Spell Latte, Albedo Spritz, and Final Word. The Dark Spell Latte is like an espresso martini with chocolate syrup added, which is pretty solid. The Albedo Spritz is a red wine cocktail with hard liquor, and stood out to me as they had 5oz of alcohol so this was fairly strong, but I would imagine most of the ounces came from the wine itself. I liked the gold dusted blackberry. The Final Word is fruity and smoky, which I enjoyed, but not warrant a hefty price tag compared to the other drinks. Service is decent and in line with other restaurant bars. Overall, solid drinks at okay prices that I can see myself recommending this spot. Given the name, it would be great to see more alchemy themed cocktails or decor as what draws me as a frequent bar goer is themed and unique drinks.

The entrance is completely unmarked, with darkened windows and no signage; you literally have to decide whether to push or pull your way into the gloom, which fits the "thief" theme perfectly once you step inside. Inside, the space leans into a **chic** speakeasy ambience, only slightly undercut by 90s chillout tunes that are a touch loud but still on-brand for a laid-back late-night hideout. The food is where things really land. Frog legs arrive as the star curiosity and end up tasting strikingly familiar--so much so they echo the famed chicken wings from Anh and Chi in both comfort and flavour. The beef tartare is properly seasoned and genuinely delicious, rich but balanced enough that it never feels heavy. Ox tail is a unique inclusion on the menu and it follows through, offering deep, slow-cooked flavour that stands out even among the stronger dishes. Duck breast is cooked to a textbook pink, tender and juicy, an easy "order again" plate. Dessert keeps the momentum going. An oolong peach creation acts as the perfect finishing touch: fragrant, slightly floral, and just sweet enough to close the meal without tipping into cloying territory. Service and atmosphere reinforce the sense of a discreet drinking den--this is the place you duck into for a properly made drink and a series of small plates, not a high-traffic scene bar. With nothing to complain about--from food to vibe--The Good Thief feels like a well-executed concept: a hidden, unmarked bolthole where you slip in from the dark, linger over excellent plates, and slip back out just as quietly.

They also have hot soy milk for drinks. Their deep fried chinese donut has got to be the best I've ever had in my life. With the price of a pair of fried donut being over $6 these days, I get my fix here. Other things are standard, good but not outstanding. I really like having soy milk to drink instead of water. $18.88 is getting a little steep for a limited choice buffet with not too many meat choices. The crab/clam are a nice addition but if there are days without it, it wouldn't be worth. I would rate the food from this place higher than the similar chinese lunch box style place in richmond, K squared mansion.
