This is a famous New West watering hole for locals. Went here recently for first time with a group…read moreof guys for happy hour drinks and food on a Saturday. Pizzas were 1/2 price with purchase of a drink -- great deal. Prices for happy hour house lager were reasonable ($6), and they give you a full pint (20oz) -- a rarity these days it seems. Ordered a pizza -- it came out hot and loaded with cheese and toppings. Great tasting tomato sauce, too. If the pizza was just a bit larger, it would've been perfect. The servers were all friendly and efficient, and the pub was packed the entire time we were there from 4-9pm. Loved the old-school decor and ambiance, lots of stained dark wood and nautical themes. It just felt like a cozy, well-lived and worn local neighborhood pub, as one should be. Would I return again? Yes, for the happy hour and pizza deals if passing through New West on a Saturday. Seemed like a well-run spot, and hope it continues to succeed.

Hard to describe. There wasn't a layer of stuff between beef and pastry, and the beef ball wasn't as rare as expected. It was tasty though. Vegetables and mashed potatoes were also good. Cast iron cookie a la mode - baked chocolate chip cookie in a mini skillet with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. Who doesn't like either items. Good value. My friends and I left happy.

The New West Elks were brave enough to invite a whole gaggle of us into their clubhouse overlooking…read moreColumbia Street. They were a welcoming bunch of people, with a wider age range than you normally see in a pub (i.e., lots of grannies) and with a blue-collar feeling that has actually become a bit rare in these parts. The beer selection is not for the snobbish (Coors and Canadian aren't even ironic yet, and I confess that upon seeing/hearing my options, I had a moment of "What can I drink?!"), but the awesome selection of diversions include regular meat draws, live bands, karaoke, pool, and my personal new favourite, shuffleboard. A friendly regular showed us how to play, and answered all our stupid questions as we learned, and soon it was like I'd been finessing my slide on the Promenade Deck with Gavin McLeod all my life. The club seems very welcoming of visitors, if you can find the door around the back of the building (go up the path between a couple of wedding dress shops, and make a sharp turn into a scary little parking lot and you're in), and membership is quite shockingly cheap.

Oh, and they were all super friendly. I guess management changed a few years back and so did all the staff - now I'm surprised when someone even acknowledges my presence, let alone asks me how my day is going. Pricey, like most beer and wine stores, and has a small selection. I tend to only go here if I happened to be in that neck of the woods and it's ten minutes to 11pm so I don't have time to go anywhere else. The bar could be good, but honestly I've never felt the need to go check it out.

We stopped in for happy hour on a Friday night before heading to a nearby show. It was quite busy,…read moreand we were told they were set up for music bingo, so seating options were limited. We did manage to get a window seat, which was really nice. The happy hour menu looked great, and we were excited to try the food. Unfortunately, after waiting nearly an hour, our waitress came over and told us she had forgotten to put our order in. Since we were short on time, we had to leave without eating. It also seemed like service was struggling overall. The woman next to us had ordered a drink and was still waiting when we left 45 minutes later. When she asked the bartender about it, he responded that he "would see what he could do," which was a bit of a strange and unhelpful reply. Overall, it was a disappointing experience due to the service, despite the promising menu and nice seating.

In here almost every week…read more Food: I have been through most of the menu so I know my favs. There have a been a few misses, but mostly hits. Standard pub options like burgers, pizza, beef dip. They have a huge wing flavour menu, so if you like wings this is your place. I really like the mussels on the appy menu. The tomato broth is so flavourful. Make sure your order a side of garlic bread so you can sop it all up. Fridays they have an amazing prime rib special. We like to go for the special and to play trivia from little h entertainment. More on food: When they advertise a special dinner like their recent craft beer dinner. GO! The chef gets his chance to shine. My usual partner in crime K and I rolled out the pub after an epic 3 course meal paired with a pint of craft beer from parallel 49 for each course. Food again: good Sunday brunch. K loves the Frankie's Benny that has crab cake in it. I am partial to their Caesar special. They recently brought back their build your own Caesar special. Staff: awesome! If Jay isn't behind the bar, he is at the door greeting us. Calvin is the manager and he is always out mingling with the patrons. We have never had an issue with the service that has been noted on other reviews. Maybe we don't notice, because we are too busy mingling with the neighbours come in for a quick dinner. Ambiance: there is a little bit for everyone. They have lots of tvs for sports. Not a fan of UFC but they show all the fights. I tend to avoid those nights. Friday night is Trivia. Prizes include g/c to the pub. Summertime they have a big patio. They are planning to expand it to make it bigger. For someone that lives in the area, this is truly a neighbourhood pub. Always run a neighbour or two. Very welcoming.
