    My partner and I recently visited the Tap and Barrel on patio at the Convention center of Canada Day. Despite it being crazy busy, our server, Molly, was very attentive, the food was good and arrived promptly. Molly was also great at making sure the we and the other folks in her section had plenty of shade on a very hot and sunny day. Great job all!

    The receptionist was not patient and didn't even tried to please me. Their online booking won't allow outdoor booking, so when I got there, I saw a shaded table was empty so I asked if we can sit there. The lady told me that was reserved (by how?). Then she went ahead talking on the radio and wouldn't answer my question. The waiter was very patient and nice however their food sucks except for the flatbread. The steak was bitter and burned. Not worth the money.

    Food was great,i would consider it as not as pricey compared to other restaurants that offer good food as with view of the view of VanCity, great area to dine and see the beauty of VANCOUVER.

    Great place, great location. It was raining so we couldn’t sit outside, which would have been even better. It was super loud, but mostly due to one large party that was celebrating something, so good for them!

    Servers should not be depending on tips or service charge to augment their pay but as bonuses for their services

    Good spot for drinks after work. Long wait to be seated for our reservation (arrived a few minutes early, then stood around for 15 mins waiting to be seated on the empty patio). Server was friendly and drinks came out promptly. Food was tasty.

    It’s was excellent from the beginning to end. We were a group of over 20 celebrating our son’s University graduation celebration and the Barrel room was the perfect spot. The food and drinks all were delicious and our server was amazing. I would definitely go back and use them for a big celebration again!!!

    Hi Kim!! Thanks so much for the kind words. I'm happy that you enjoyed your service from Molly. Conratulations on your son's graduation from UVic! Yourself, Frank & Shirley and the rest of your group were a delight. I hope we get the chance to host you again soon. Cheers
