We got in before the line started (it was eight deep as we left). As far as I could see they had four employees working hard to keep the bar, dining room and large patio patrons happy. We got a spot on the patio rail with an amazing view of the water. Drank a local cider and ate a huge plate of baby potatoes and chorizo sausage over arugula (I give props to the cook who seasoned the greens) Our waitress was amazing, she was slammed but took it all in stride with a smile on her face. They were also kind enough to move a heater closer.

I'm always here on vacay so the old noggin' tends to be on 'pause' and i am learning to rely on experts and servers more lately. i.e., i'm in your 'hood, what would you suggest?? So i asked for some BC red wine options and got a few great, reasonably priced selections. Then at the cash with my Granville Isl winter beer in hand i asked the super cure cashier if he knew if the brew company was open...he said indeed and that he was going there later (was this kinda a pick up!?!?! i'm so out of practice). We then proceeded to wax poetic about the awesomeness of the Tofino Brewing Company (please go there). Anyway, not sure if it was the wicked weather or impending long weekend but everyone was cheery and smiley and here I am...writing about it. Next time you're in town, pop in, think about what your craving and leave the selecting up to the local experts. You won't be sorry.

And of course there are TV's. They were a little busy when I visited on a Monday night but you didn't need a reservation to be seated right away. The service was good. My waitress was very friendly. While the food wasn't lightning fast, it took less time than I expected to get my entree after ordering given that they seemed busy, and my dessert came out very quickly. I had: Foragers martini: This tasted exactly as you would expect from the name. Spruce-flavoured anything was not actually in the ingredient list, but I would describe the flavour of the cocktail as "sprucey". It was pleasantly strong. Grilled wild sockeye salmon: My first thought was that this was a small portion for the price, but the huge plate was deceiving and this was actually a very satisfying serving with a large cut of salmon and a healthy heaping of farro salad. The salmon was cooked perfectly - I loved how the skin got crispy and flaky. The farro salad was hearty and delicious on its own or with the salmon, and the pickled fennel and the orange coulis were interesting compliments to enhance the dish. Chocolate basque cheesecake: I was going to choose this anyway, but my waitress also recommended it. This was a great basque cheesecake - rich with a slightly burnt crust. The candied hazelnut brittle totally elevated it. The slice was big enough to share, but it was really good and surprisingly not too heavy, so I finished it by myself easily. It was so expensive though... I was staying at the hotel so I got 10% off food, and even then I spent $80 after tip! I knew it was going to be expensive and decided to treat myself since it was my last night in Tofino, but I think without the 10% I would've gone somewhere else anyway. Even with the whole "elevated" thing and acknowledging that the food and drink was not at all what I would consider typical sports bar food, it felt so bad to spend $80 on one person at a place calling itself as a sports bar.

Because there's lots of people and it's busy, it was a bit slow. It took a while to place the order and get our food.

They have foosball tables, cozy chairs. It is a cozy space! Basically a large is $28 and a small is $21. Besides poke, you can get specialty coffee and smoothies there and some (not a lot) of baked goods. It is a self serve kind of place with some surf merch, local art as well. The food is fresh, I order the quinoa with rice and salmon and tuna w mango cilantro and crispy garlic and cilantro, kale, w soy sauce and sasame oil, seaweed salad topping. It was very pricey for what it was but probably Tofino standards but really hit the spot. We were on holidays so all is good.

All of our drinks were good and well balanced, but some of them needed a touch more sugar. The rose latte wasn't too overpowering. Both the salmon and halloumi bagels were absolutely delicious and had a lot of filling, but the halloumi was my favorite of the two. The bagels themselves were amazing. They were soft and chewy. The bagels are pretty pricey, but worth it to try at least once. One down side, is that they have limited hours due to staffing. We tried coming here one day, but found out they were closed for an event. I am glad that we had time to come back the following day before we had to leave. 4.5 stars
