    Nothing really to add from the previous review except that they've been doing pretty consistently well for the past year and definitely merit more than 3 stars. Live music is always a hit. Cheers.

    We've done our neighbourhood walks many times and had been meaning to stop into The Wolf and Hound every time, but it hadn't been the right time! Well, the sun finally shone down on us several times in the past month and we've stopped a few times! This review is based off of a stroll by and decide to stop for a quick bite and a drink - NOT a sit down meal kind of thing. Well, first I'll get the BIG QUESTION out of the way...... of course they have Kilkenny and Guinness on tap. If you're not a beer fan, they have Ireland's famous Magner's as well! I thought I should answer those questions right away. They have a happy hour, and they have some cheap beers during those times that DON'T cover the Irish beers (at least not that I recall). We've had their deep friend pickles as a delightful snack - something I'd never make for myself and they are goooooooood. I can't wait to go back for a live music Sunday Irish night jam session! I had been in once almost 10 years ago and it was a little dark and dreary - but I think that's just the good ol' OG pub vibe from decades before.

    Have been here a couple of times and wonder why we keep coming back. This place is a dive - wobbly, shitty tables, chipped paint on the walls, years of dust and filth everywhere. Ordered the corned beef hash for breakfast today. It's not actually hash (which literally means to chop into cubes) - instead, it's a pile of oily potatoes with undercooked peppers and onions, to which a bit of deli lunch meat is added. The "hollandaise" is thick and gelatinous and is obviously from a powder. Disgusting. The attached photo is the plate after I had eaten the poached eggs and few bits of lunch meat. Will not be returning to this place.

    We visited the Wolf & Hound on St. Patrick's Day. As it was the biggest day of the year - we did have to wait about 15 minutes. There was a $7 per person cover for the live music which was worth it! We had the Guinness Mac & Cheese which I would order again. The fish and chips were good but a bit greasy. We also got the deep-fried pickle spears. Overall the service was great and the beers were cold! I'll be back.

    Nacho sans wonton crisps...much better.
    Michael L.

    After my previous review, the owner contacted me to advise that they had an issue in the kitchen which did not allow the cheese to melt, that they had now addressed it and also that one could order the nachos without the wonton crisps. So we decided to give The Wolf & Hound another try. Returned on a Thursday evening and it was quite busy. Ordered the nachos without the wonton crisps this time around. It was a much better product than our previous experience...all the cheese was melted and they had cheese layered between the nachos...all good. Our server was pleasant and attentive. Much better food experience and happy to give the nachos a thumbs up.

    Having a Wednesday Drink!!

    Pub food is always a hit or miss! I'm happy to report that this is a HIT! Went in on a weekday afternoon, the place is almost empty; which is normal on a regular workday! As an Irish Pub themed waterhole, this place can be anywhere in UK, which is a compliment, it really takes you to that feeling of an old neighbourhood pub where regulars hang out and have a few drinks over a football match etc. Foodwise, this is as good as any pub can get; the thick cut Pork Chop was done just right; will the meat being juicy and cooked to perfection as the centre is just a very slight hint of pink, sauce is robust and made this a perfect match! My burger came in a Brioche, meat texture was also juicy and full of flavour, comes with side salad and with a cool pint you can almost call this Heaven on Earth! So if you want to relax and have something that reaches to your Soul, come in on a weekday, have the place to yourself and may be bring a friend or two and enjoy a lazy afternoon! (of course enjoy the food and the friendly service too!)

    Old fashion Irish pub. They have band performing on Friday and Saturday night. Food is good. Barnyard burger is a good one to try if you are really hungry.

    Clean taste, simple and unpretentious food!
    CH L.

    Being an Irish pub in the West end, it really has a good true pub vibe, one that doesn't feel the need to be pretentious like a lot of other Vancouver restaurants. It has an excellent, genuine pub feel! We had fried Brussels sprouts with lemon and parmesan shavings, it has a clean and simple taste. Meals included Shepherd's pie, a really big portion and for a person who dislikes potatoes, especially mashed, I had more than a few bites :) Also a beef dip with Poutine. The beef dip was nothing special but the jus itself had good seasoning and was excellent! Overall, the experience was good, very relaxing and very well dine for a pub in Vancouver!

    I've got mixed feelings about the Wolf & Hound resulting from poor service on a most recent visit, but the staples of the place win out here. The interior of the pub is beautiful: bright varnished wood, upholstered seats, and a spacious layout. There are more than a dozen delightfully smooth beers on tap, including cream ales, pale ales, and stouts. The list of mix ups are enlightening: Black & Berry = Guinness and Ribenna; Black Velvet = Guiness and Champagne. I love that they have a Maritime kitchen party weekly on Friday nights and plenty of other live music throughout the week. The Wolf & Hound does a great job of being a neighborhood pub. The menu supports this with classic pub favorites. Most recently, the Sheppard's Pie hit a good spot on a rainy Vancouver night. But our waitress was forgetful: forgetting two parts of the order and our water. I don't understand why some people persist in trying to (or their managers persist in making them) remember the entire table's order. Write it down, improve your tips, and make the service better! If you love to travel but lack the funds, heading to the Wolf & Hound will help you forget your troubles and give you a shot of Irish spirit(s).

    I've been here quite a few times. The food has been consistently good! I'm Irish so I wanted to try a Home favourite! Curry cheese chips! (Fries)! It is down as an appie on the menu, however I got to substitute it as side on the main menu! Which was perfect. The burger was cooked really nicely. Great combo! Highly recommend. The staff are always nice and friendly.

    I've been here a few times already and liked it every time. However, in my last experience (which…read morewas this last weekend), my friends and I didn't have the best experience. We were four friends that came for happy hour. Here are the details: Service: we were helped by three different servers but the main server helping us seemed to have screwed up our orders. We each ordered our own individual dishes but in addition to that, we ordered the crispy cauliflower (3 in total). When the food came out, everything came with one of the crispy cauliflowers and we reminded the server that there should've been two more. However, a few minutes later, a different server brought out one more and was surprised to learn we order three and we were waiting for the third one. So a bit of an off service day. Food: food seemed to be okay. It was much better the previous times I had been there so I'm not really sure if it was just an off day in the kitchen or not.

    Had a good time here. We had made a reservation for the Seahawks game and they had a place at the…read morebar reserved for us. The Cobb salad, and especially the chicken, was surprisingly delicious! Service was friendly even though they were busy, although some people at the bar didn't seem to know how to pour beer (I watched one waitress pour out ~5 pitchers of pure foam over the time we were there). It was a great environment to watch a game.

This corner spot is neatly tucked away with a few outdoor seating spots, but the magic in itself is inside. The mix of vintage and old glam showcases the hybrid aesthetic. Perfectly described, The Ballyhoo definitely lives up to the over-the-top decor from their food offerings and styling. I managed to find myself arriving within happy hour and was super please I was able to bring my laptop out and get some work done without it causing anyone a fuss. The server I had was super friendly and she had all the tables she was handling in good spirit. After opting for a local draft beer and some bites, I kept over hearing how delicious the mozz sticks were. Now IDK how one levels up mozzarella sticks, but these truly were some of the best I've ever had. The dipping sauce was super spicy but bearable for anyone's heat preference and the breading and cheese inside had such a burst of flavor you wanted to simply inhale them. What had me in awe though was the cheese pull game. No need to fear about them being overdone not cooked enough, these babies were cooked to perfection with the cheese literally oozing out of each bite. I saw a few plates being served around and think this spot is definitely worth exploring.
