Need more parking here but once you're in the pub is great for all ages. The food is great and we had good friendly service. I had a cauliflower appetizer which was great and a chicken burger. This is a pretty small pub and seemed a bit noisy but I would definitely go again read more

I am shocked by the low reviews. This was by far some of the best service and food! I had the fish and chips and they were delicious. The waitress was amazing and the manager also checked in on us to make sure everything was ok. Highly recommend! read more

We finally checked this pub out. We have been living in the area for years and we have always wanted to stop in a try the food. Overall We had to give the Townhall a 3/5. I do not think this place deserves a 1/5, but they really need to step it up if they want repeat customers. Service 4/5 Our waitress was very cheerful and more than happy to accommodate our special requests (Gluten Free). She frequently came back to check on us. No real complaints except for the fact that half way through the meal for about 15 minutes she was walking around the pub talking on the pubs phone. Not very professional. Food 3/5 I had the cajun chicken burger with fries and their version of street fish tacos. It's pretty hard to mess up fries but the chicken burger was quite dry through and through. The street fish tacos were ok except for the chipotle aioli which had the consistency of vinaigrette. You take one bite and everything pours out of the thick soft shell. I was not impressed. Atmosphere 3/5 It seemed pretty dingy and dark. Honestly it felt dirty in there. We ate in the atrium part of the pub, which was nicer but a little weird. For some reason they decided to install AstroTurf in a cross pattern on the floor between the four picnic style tables, all of which are in desperate need of repair. read more

I am, admittedly, not a huge "chain" gal. But having worked for one on the administration side, I know how much it matters to HQ that things are done right, regardless of the location you are at. From what I've seen, both Browns and Cactus Club excel at this. To that end, I have had plenty of great, solid dining/drinking experiences at Townhall Coquitlam... which is why my experience this weekend was so disappointing at the South Surrey location. A bartender who didn't know what beers he had on tap. A beef dip that hadn't seen a toaster and was therefore sponge-y and unsatisfying, the ingredients for which were not correctly assembled (red onion, not caramelized. no horseradish, as promised), and cold, skinned gravy. Tables that hadn't been bussed everywhere and no attempt to rectify this while we were seated. On the whole, JRG has a solid menu when well executed. Seems like this location needs some retraining. read more

Well i can say I wasnt surprised...the place was crowded....tables were soo close together...the waitresses were running round...short staffed...the beer tasted watered down aNd the food was bland....the pulled pork sandwich barely had bbq sause on it...WTH... Looks swanky from outside but thats not the case. read more

Downhill seems to be the place to be on a Saturday night. There is a DJ playing music and the dance area was packed with people dancing. The demographic was wide range; older and younger people dancing their hearts out. Me included. Nachos are pretty decent as is the wings. But it is your typical pub fare, nothing spectacular. read more

I'll start off on a high note: this pub is beautiful inside. It has an english tavern feel to it. Yet it is modern and up beat. Only downfall for me was the poor bartending. But overall I enjoyed my visit. I will definitely get the Peach Tea next time and I thoroughly enjoyed my tuna melt. read more

Wow... Bought tickets to a Halloween party. Waited 45 minutes and they "couldn't let me in"!?!. Got my money back which I appreciate. But beyond this I'm done with this place. Why sell tickets when you can't let people in or even tell them an honest time to get in? read more

I would have given this place 0 stars if yelp let me! -UNFRIENDLY SERVICE -Seems like they don't appreciate their customers -Bellow average food -Dirty washrooms not kept up with towels -Bad music selection -Open under construction, at one point you had to stand in a line up outside with a completely unfinished and dangerous sidewalk. This is NOT a downtown club and treating customers as so will hurt them in the long run. This is a small town local pub where staff should be friendly with customers and try to build a local regular customer base; who wants to be a regular customer at a place were the customer service is horrible and unfriendly. Yeah its busy now but once people experience the issues this place has the crowds will head to other establishments in the area. Glad to see a Ceilies is opening in the area. read more

This place was just OK. I would never go again. There was a drunk guy behind us very loudly trying to set up a "date" without his wife (if you know what I mean). Other people in there seemed very drunk. The food seemed like it was bought from the grocery store frozen section and heated up. The staff seemed nice though. It would be good in a pinch but my first experience there wasn't that great. Overall I think they are trying and they only have so much control over the clientele that comes in. Better food would make a difference here! I think this place does have potential though. read more

Don't go. The waitress did not give me back my change. I didn't both saying anything just wanted to get out of there. She also did the change search even though I know she had the exact amount right in front of her. My brother was killed by a drunk this year all the more reasons I have not to drink and drive. When I asked for water she took forever to come and when she did I got that are you crazy look. The other waitress in the other section was ok though. I just would avoid this place it's poor service on so many levels. read more

wow i dont have enough bad things to say about this place. the WORST everything. This place just doesnt make sense to me. How is this a business? terrible service, unfriendly staff, bad music, bad lighting, stupid lay out, straight up DONT GO THERE! This is place is THE WORST read more

Place is quite dark. Food was good & prices are competitive. Waitress, 'Anne' was great

The visit here was pretty standard. Nothing really set them apart from any other bar. The servers were a bit better when it was previously the Black Forest but not terrible service. The high note for our trip was the manager. He kindly introduced himself and even bought the family a round of shots, that's super fantastic service. And no I don't expect that every time but it's a great way to make a rapport with the local cliental. read more

I think the Joseph Richard Group needs to spend less time acquring pubs and more time improving the service at the pubs they already have. We tried Henry's in Cloverdale and, although somewhat disappointed with draft selection, had an enjoyable experience. So when went to the Townhall we had high hopes for this new establishment and were sorely disappointed. While ordering, a specific question was asked about an entree related to being non-dairy. Our server laughed us off (as if, 'duh, there's never dairy in pesto sauce'), and then when the question was asked with true seriousness about ten minutes later we received the snarky remark (as if, 'I've answered this already, NO'), and then further when it was requested she double check with the chef (as most pesto sauces have parmesan)- we were treated as if we were super high maintenance customers. Well wouldn't you know about 5 minutes later our waitress returned, throwing the chefs under the bus saying they misunderstood her and thought she was referring to a pasta dish. "So yes, there is dairy in the pesto sauce....want something else?" Not long after the manager came over apologizing for the confusion and offering to comp the last dish ordered. This was a nice gesture - however balanced with the absolutely awful service.....we won't be back :( By the way, the draft selection is no better here. read more
