    This was a last-minute reservation to check out the NY Polar Bear Swim at Kits Beach! Since my mom had never seen one, nor visited this boathouse location, I thought we should come and see if we’d get lucky with front-row seats—and yes, the Boathouse delivered! We were ushered to window seats facing Kits Beach in a nice, heated space. We loved our server Lauren’s recommendations and thoroughly enjoyed the oyster sampler from PEI. My mom also loved the Monte Cristo. We then shared the bruschetta board, tuna tacos, and delicious mussels! Lauren’s warm smile and outstanding service made our meal even more enjoyable. My mom especially appreciated her attentiveness in ensuring plenty of hot water—a must for older Asian ladies, lol. Overall, this was a great lunch spot, and we look forward to visiting again!

    Thomas: our server was an absolute delight and provided the best experience and service we have ever had at Keg, my only comment is that, as a loyal keg customers and speak very highly of this institution, since I had shared that this was a birthday celebration and how we have been coming to Keg for past 20 years in my “ send the message “ during my reservation on open table and actually no one responded ( the manager on duty ) should have to the table and wished my hubby and maybe sent a flute of beverage to cheers the birthday

    They still offered a Happy Hour menu on Christmas Eve which is amazing for me when dining solo. I was able to order two dishes and a beverage. The food was PHENOMENAL! I ordered the Caesar Salad and the oyster mushroom calamari. The view was stunning, the service was great. All around an amazing experience that made my solo holiday in Vancouver super special.
