Trading Post Eatery in Abbotsford

We had a holiday gathering for 30 at The Trading Post Eatery in Abbotsford and had a wonderful experience! The communication for planning the event was smooth and the service on the day of the event was the best. Servers were kind, warm, and took care of all of the guests needs. We had platters of food that was pre-ordered and everything was delicious! We will happily book future events at The Trading Post.

Great venue to host a private event! We booked the covered patio in Dec 2024 and it was a beautiful room that was private from the rest of the dining area and allowed us to host a work meeting and holiday dinner for 40 people. Unlike some other venues we have booked previously in Abbotsford, this location has a projector screen and microphone free of charge for your use which really helped us to deliver a successful meeting. We will definitely consider booking here again next year!

So the place is great I have been there a couple of times but the last visit was an absolute disaster. I feel humiated and so disrespected. Being a customer I never expected such kind a behaviour. All the other servers were great but the head manager was rude. I would never recommend for anyone to ever visit because of such harsh behaviour. Food and servers 10 out 10 but the manager doesn t know how to speak with customers. I want to talk to higher authorities because she blamed me for inappropriate behaviour. I am surprised inappropriate behaviour for what just sitting . This is not a way to treat. Would love to have a conversation with higher authorities about the behaviour of the seniors managers.

We had a staff party last night, for a large group. You guys did a great job. We had a buffet type meal and it was absolutely delicious! It couldn t have been better. Every detail was thought of and well executed. Thanks so much for a great night! Vegetarian options: We had vegetarians in our group and everyone enjoyed both options, great variety for all. Dietary restrictions: This is one of my best friends favorite restaurants as they always have multiple options for her gluten allergy

They hosted our Christmas Party for 13 of us and we had an amazing experience. The food and drinks were awesome, and the service was excellent! Thank you!

Food wasn t great, my friends was sent back to the kitchen because the chicken looked raw, turned out it was a vein. They replaced it and took it off the bill. We also ordered the truffle fries they were very dry and the sauce wash very tangy. Service was great and beautiful restaurant. Also should have some canned seltzers for customers who don t drink beer or spritzer s. Vegetarian options: Wish there were more vegetarian options. Not much to choose from.

We had a large party of guests so its not really fair or accurate to comment. They did do their best to get all dishes out together, they did struggle with a large guest party. In general it was a good experience. Can comment differently if I go back for a normal dinner or lunch Food

Average restaurant, we would attend more as it is near but they allow smokers to sit just outside their front entrance so the smell of smoke is constant. Nothing worse than coming out of a restaurant after a meal and getting enveloped by cigarette smoke. Bylaw is 7 meters not 3!

The experience of trying different in-house beers were really good. Kid friendly menu is always a plus!

This is so terribly inconsistent , service and food ! If you happen to go when it has been good , its great but I m not willing to take the chance anymore . The menu also seem a to be dwindling .

Terra burger was delicious. Beer was very good. The place itself was beautiful and clean. Food

Service is poor. The host put us at a table that was cramped under the stairs while a perfectly open table was available for our entire visit. My burger was burnt and dry. The order we made got messed up. We had 6 people and spent over $250. Tip starts at 18%. Please note that a tip like that means that the waitress needs to smile and get our order right. Won t be back.

I had Lauren as my server and she was such a delight. The fish and chips were 10/10 I will definitely be back!

Not a good experience. The good: Truffle fries were delicious. Live music was nice. The bad: We were at the restaurant for 2 hours and received 1 drink each and a shared appy, our mains never arrived. After speaking to the manager, where he said our meals were taken care of for the night, we waited another 20 minutes and finally just left. It was a nice gesture but a little too late. All the tables around us (who arrived after us) had received their meals. Empty glasses and plate were never cleared. Table maintenance was poor. Generally unimpressed.

Excellent food, service and price. Heated patio seating area was just awesome.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend the Terra burger, my stomach wouldnt let me eat more but my tastebuds wanted another burger. Did not try their beers this time, but they have a nice selection that I assume they brew themselves.

Mya was excellent! She was very kind , great service with a smile, knew her subject matter and a pleasant personality !

The absolute BEST microbrewery in the lower mainland. The food is absolutely amazing and the beers are great too! I recommend trying a flight!

Good beer and tasty food. Recommend giving them a try.

(Edited to reflect the excellent response to this review. The manager was very apologetic and took this on herself to make sure it doesnt happen again. She went above and beyond to rectify the situation. We will be happy to return. Thank you for your help in the matter.) Watch your receipts. We got the special offered discount on brew. Tipped 20% on our meal after tax..... Realized when we got home we tipped on the purchased beer. I hope you do disclose this in the future. A separate bill for purchases seems more appropriate.

Cozy, clean, beautiful place, delicious food, good service, etc.

Food and beer were both delicious!

I want to say Laura, is absolutely the best server ever! This was my first time ever coming here, I drove from pentiction and she was honestly the best! She made my experience so amazing and made me and my family feel so loved! She was so great. I have never in my life experienced a server so sweet and caring that really cared for their job! Thank you Laura! We will definitely be back soon!

Its one of my familys favorite places to eat. Great starters, salads, and burgers. The best in my opinion...truffle fries! Awesome beer and cocktails. Friendly service and always accommodating. Fun vibe.

Great food, atmosphere and friendly staff

We were looking for a place to eat after a full day at cultus lake water park. They were able to accommodate our walk in group of 14, including 9 kids ages 8-16 graciously. Kept our orders straight, were surprisingly fast with the food. Highly recommend!

Grate customer service! Amazing beer

The worst experience ever had in a brewery in canada! My buddy decided to order food and drinks before checking if he have the wallet or not! he realised he didnt have the wallet and told Manager emily! She was rude and pulled food and drinks from front of us and ask us to leave! i paid with my card for him and she didnt give our drink back!

Great place and great beer. I had the fish and chips and I ate the chips mostly. The fish was horrible. I tried my wifes Tacos and it was great too. Ive only been twice and maybe an off time I went.

This is my second time visiting here. The food was good, especially jalapeno cheese dip was a perfect match to the beers. The staff were very friendly and I would definitely visit again. This was my second visit. The food was great, the jalapeño cheese dip was very tasty. This goes perfectly with beer. All the staff are friendly, so I plan to visit again next time. I liked everything, including the good atmosphere, clean interior, and good music. If you ever come to Abbotsford, I recommend a visit.

Highly recommend the Terra burger, Chicken + Waffles, and the Vegan Power Bowl. The beer is also spectacular of course . Ive never been unhappy with the food and service, and any time were trying to decide where to go, its always my first choice. My only nitpick is that the patio gets too hot with the heaters on, but the staff are great about adjusting it if you ask.

A limited menu but thank heaven for that because making a decision between the delicious options is hard enough! They can accommodate larger groups in the loft area and also have a beautiful, covered outdoor patio. And the beers are all very delectable and refreshing, we definitely hope to come back!! Kid-friendliness: A dedicated kids menu and board games in separate area upstairs! Kept the kids entertained negative: ice tea is home made - great for adults but not kids, just stock Nestea for them...

Great beer. Great atmosphere. Go see Kim!!

Lovely service! AMAZING GF AND DF food!! It was SO good. We were on our way to Burnaby and because of my dietary restrictions, we had to search a lot and I m glad we found this place!! DEF TRY THIS PLACE OUT!!

Usually the food is awesome, but this time, almost all of the burgers and sandwiches were overdone. Unfortunately we were there for 2 birthdays and the birthday boys burger was the most overdone and he didnt eat it. Fries were very unflavorful as well. My chicken sandwich was okay but a little overdone and not super flavorful either. Server was great and did the best she could to fix the issue by taking the birthday boys burger off the bill. (We hadnt complained about the rest of the food to her.) Im hoping this was a one-off because we have had amazing burgers there before. We might give this place another chance later on but I hope they fix the issue first.

Had 3 drinks, called the cops on me while I waited for a safe ride in my car. They impounded my car. Just to let ur establishment know you were in the wrong. Fought the allegations and won!

Food was perfect.great service

The service was excellent, food well the burger was a little bit burnt but other than that it was good Vegetarian options: They did have vegetarian options on the menu

Come here it s the best place in the world! Best Shirley temple came with a cherry - Jack, 9 years old

serenity was my server and she was phenomenal!! amazing service and very personable.

Had a great experience at the trading post! Went for lunch! Great space! Quick service! The menu had some fun different flavours! Really good!

Great service, great food will come back when in area!

Great little place in Abbotsford!! Gluten free options were amazing! And staff was super helpful and accommodating. Definitely will be back again. 100/10!!

Since u opened in Abbotsford, just simply the best burgers I have ever tasted and a special shout-out to your top-notch server, Lauryn J as she always makes our visits there special!

Food was hot garbage, paid 4 dollars more for the poutine was served in a ramekin that was half full and the cheese was burnt terribly. The spicy chicken sandwich was way below par and severly burnt as well. Would not recommend ordering food here. The only good out of this was our server was polite and nice. However the food was terrible.

The ambience is great! Bar staff is always friendly.

Best comfort food! Thanks to the bartender in blue flannel, thanks for making sure my food in the take-out bag all stayed up right! Keep it up!

Food and beer were awesome .top quality everything and the service was totally rad! Thanks Lauryn! Completely impressed and highly recommend!

Was great food!

This, this is a third attempt at this place. Very expensive and not worth the experience. We had a disconnected waitress who did not like her job. Thats no fun when putting in an order or receiving it. As well as if you want to change something or add something, you get an obvious they don t want to attitude. We also noticed something sad. The outside patio had planter boxes lined up against each one of the tables. Well, all the planters were completely dead and crispy. If those cannot be taken care of, what else are they not taking care of in the restaurant? It would be nice to just remove them either way. This is the third try at this restaurant and decided with the amount of money we paid, and our experience, it would be our last.

Kim is a great server. We appreciate her.

Great options for gluten free and knowledgable staff. Prawn tacos 10/10. Awesome live music.

Nice place, food is traditional pub food, trading post burger was good. Beer is on the high side compared to similar places.

The food was great. Our server Serenity was amazing I would go back because of her service. Highly recommend. Burgers are amazing

Great burgers and beer

Had a company event there with about 30 of our staff. We had a fantastic time. Food was great, ambience was great and service was amazing!

My husband and I went here for our anniversary dinner. I had the spicy chicken sandwich that Ive had before, and I knew it was good. My husband had the Canadiana burger. He was disappointed. He felt for $23 it shouldve had tomato lettuce and pickles as well as the other stuff. And to be honest, the waitress wasnt bad but not very attentive.

Had a fabulous pear salad here with flatbread. My new favorite place to eat. Service was exceptional and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend!! Wheelchair accessibility: Has ramp access for those of us with mobility issues

Love this place -- no televisions! The go-to place for my friends and me. Great ambiance, and last night was no exception. Big shoutout to server Leah and manager Amy for their kind and efficient service!

Been here multiple times and I havent once had a bad experience. Which is quite unusual because I seem to invoke odd experiences wherever I go. Anyway, they have good food, nice beer and friendly staff. Also they have really handsome customers (when Im there) Edit: Minus one star for being closed at 9:45, when the website says it closes at 10. I went out in the freezing weather tonight to find the doors locked but a few people inside having a private party. If you close early at least put it on the website or Google so people wont waste their time

High prices for mid pub food and drinks. Nice setting, but just wasn t worth it. Felt robbed.

Popped in for beers and dinner last night and having been attached to TP since before the restaurants existed it was nice to be back home on a visit to the coast. The server (Alara) was excellent - and connected with us immediately - and as always the beer and food was excellent. The best part of TP is it s the best of both worlds. Fine beer and not just pizza or the easy stuff. The care and attention to detail shows and is well worth it. Damn that s good mustard .

Very large well lit and busy pub. Friendly staff and delicious food. Love the Friday night happy hour 9pm - close. Enjoy!

Great atmosphere, location & food. Server was pleasant and seemed to know items on the menu well. Corn chowder was really good & the pancetta carbonara was packed with flavour and wasn t dry! Service was fast & they didn t bother you every 5 minutes.

Super friendly staff, and very tasty food. The beer is also very tasty.

Alara was our server and she made our night. Also blown away by the vegan feature menu. Plus the regular vegan options on the menu are also stellar! We will definitely come again. Awesome food and service with something to eat for everyone.

Really great vegan specials (you have to try the vegan hot wings), and our server Alara made our visit really special. 10/10 food and 11/10 service.

Great food, delicious drinks and atmosphere

Came in for a couple beers. Our server at the bar Sarah was amazing! 10/10 will be back.

I went to this Trading Post for a bite to eat, service was great! I would go again 100%. The fish wasnt great but the Trading Post team reached out making it clear they will be dealing with the issue so I would still recommend this location as a good place to eat. Keep up the good work guys!

This local business is a model for quality and consistency. Local ingredients make great food, and beer! We popped in for a pint and a nibble. The lentil soup and sourdough was hot, and hot the spot, the falafel bowl was fresh and fantastic. Would recommend for a nice afternoon lunch spot. Great place for meetings. The double IPA is a thirst quenching burst of deliciousness.

Lovely place and awesome menu. Excellent service.

Delicious food, diverse options to choose from, friendly and accommodating staff. I have celiac and it s difficult to find restaurants that offer a lot of gluten free options and/or safe food preparation - but trading post has both! The manager brought out my food and explained all of the allergen protocols in place. I felt very safe eating here. This has become my go-to place for eating out. Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free: dedicated GF fryers, separate prep space, new ingredients pulled.

Cold Beer and Lovely staff ! Dietary restrictions: Multiple menu options for people who are limited with dietary restrictions. Food : 4/5 |

Wow!

Must try Forager burger , pretzel and veggie bowl

This restaurant is such a gem in the hood! I love the atmosphere, the food, and our waitress Seraphina was super nice! I ll definitely visit again when I m in the area

Great staff and excellent food with a good selection of beers

Had the Fried Chicken Sandwich and it was delicious. Great atmosphere and vibe. Add to your stop.

We are plant based and loved how many options this place had. We ended up eating here several times over a couple days and everything we ate was delicious. Definitely try the sweet potato fries and poutine!

The double ipa and crispy chicken burger are excellent.

Food is always consistent and delicious! The fried chicken sandwich is one of the best around. Always delicious food and tasty beer!

Worst putine ever, dont eat here

Top quality food, perfect portions and service is excellent. My new favourite restaurant. The prices are also very reasonable. Vegetarian options: The vegan dishes are excellent could have a bit more variety, but not complaining.

Food runner was handsome and talented

Loved this place!!! Food was 5/5, beer was 5/5, service was on par so good.

Went on a Saturday evening. Food and drink was wonderful, live music was meh. I appreciate there was a local artist doing cover songs... But they were all very lounge-ish and I noticed the place cleared out by 9... Pretty early for a place like this.

Beers are absolutely the best, so many varieties and seasonal flavored beers are amazing. WE have enjoyed our dinner after our whole day corporate meeting. I ENJOYED everything. FOOD Price was little but high based on Abbotsford location. Good service ** TRY to go before 5pm to ejoy happy hour opportunity **

Had the prawn tacos. Prawns were extremely rubbery. Food is definitely not great.

Good Service Every time! Recommend the poutine with mushroom gravy.

This place took 1:45 hours to serve my food very disappointed

Excellent place, great service, awesome food. Food

Happy hour is amazing. Great options.

Our server Lauren was super friendly the food was delicious ...Highly recommend.. will definitely visit again..Andrew

Great food! Both for meat-a-tarians and vegetarians! The food was top notch and the restaurant was nice and clean.

Awesome restaurant, great food and drinks and an incredible atmosphere.

Nice place with good pub like food

This is a great place with a fabulous patio. I m fact if you are debating between here and Cactus club GO HERE. Great wine and decent prices. Beer flights are interchangeable and great as well. They food is EPIC. Highly recommend tuna to start. Our server was professional and prompt. Loved it and will be back.

Cancelling drag bingo for being too polarizing deserves a singular star... take down your pride sticker please - and stop profiting off of pride when it is convenient for you. Thanks.

It has been 4-years since my original review of the Trading Post and my original review Great brew choices and great food stands, but I have increased my rating since then. This is one of our favorite spots in Abbotsford. Always friendly staff, accommodating to family gatherings and we have never had a bad meal there.

Good service and foods. Prices are reasonable. Environment is good too.

Ive been here often and have always enjoyed it. Last nights experience was very disappointing. A friend and I went in for drinks/appies - we were seated outside and then had nobody come to our table for 15 minutes. We actually went back in to the hostess to be seated again (inside), where we waited at least another 5 minutes before someone stopped by our table. After a small taster, our server didnt return again for 10-15 minutes to ask if my friend had decided. It was not busy either. We felt invisible; I hope this doesnt end up being others experience.

Incredible food, great vibes, had the feature ginger mojito and it was soo good! Staff were wonderful and attentive. Will definitely be back!

Oh my, the feature flatbread was AMAZING!!! Also, our waitress, Lauryn J was Fantastic! The right combination of helpful, chatty and a great listener. Thank you so much for a great evening!

Great food and friendly server. We will be back. I recommend the Canadiana burger. Parking: If you cant find spots out front, theres a parkade on the south side.

Generally their food is good, but I ordered the broccoli salad and I was very disappointed. I love broccoli, and it was suppose to include cabbage, but barely any cabbage was added and salad was swimming in fried onions. I picked at the broccoli, tomatoes, and whatever cabbage I found the rest went to waste unfortunately.

Overall experience was great. Came with a big group. Service was a little slow on drinks, but understandable given how packed it was. server was delightful, very polite and friendly. Food quality was a 5 but found the description a little misleading on one of the dishes we ordered.. Had the harvest bite Appetizer, description included an arugula salad but it was more of a garnish.. maybe 6-8 leaves total, which was a little disappointing because I love arugula salad. Other than that, the fritters themselves were delicious. Also enjoyed a delicious pear rhubarb sour beer.

Our dog was welcomed on their patio with a bowl of fresh water. Good selection of beers. Tacos were tasty and the serving was generous. Fish and chips were excellent. Great service, too! Definitely a good choice for a sunny afternoon in Abbotsford with your pup!

We sat outside because we had a dog with us. Bonus having a pup friendly patio! The food was amazing! One vegan, one vegetarian and one meatatarian lol We were so happy with the menu choices, the portions were substantial and everything was super tasty! Your staff was wonderful too. Thanks for a great first time experience!

A common person looking at the name Trading Post Eatery would not be expecting the quality service for the atmosphere of a community bar. Think of Cheers in the new millennium where everyone knows your name, the servers are cordial and understanding. I was very pleased to learn that they did not serve Heineken because they took the time to let me try a sampling of their in-house beers until I found one that I liked and Ill be honest Im picky. I finally found IPA with pine and grapefruit accents that was very pleasing and the staff were so mindful of our conversation that they didnt interrupt, they did not rush us and even though we each only ordered one beer we were able to sit for an hour and a half and have a great conversation with no interruptions. I look forward to returning to try their food because their atmosphere and their service are off the charts.

These folks are doing excellent work over here. In a world where not trying and mediocre hospitality is commonplace, this place stands out. Every person we encountered was very friendly and kind. Dog friendly patio. Good beer and tasty food. Prawn tacos could use less slaw and a little more prawns, but thats my only critique. Excellent service!

Good beer, good food, the vegan salad with chicken added was awesome omg , then pumpkin pie jar was awesome , sour beer and the sangria was killer.

Excellent fried chicken sandwich. Truly awesome. My buddy had the full rack of ribs which he said were really good. I think my chicken sandwich was better, but hey, he liked the ribs. The server was very helpful when I asked questions about the menu. Friendly and professional. There was a guy playing guitar and singing in the room and it added a nice atmosphere. Not too loud so we could still have a conversation. We will definitely be returning to the Trading Post.

Perfect brewing! Good food , beer and music! Attendance is amazing

Food was great, Saturday night ambiance was fantastic, and the staff was super friendly. This was my first time there and wont be the last!

Friendly staff, good eats, and great service

So worth the stop, had the chicken and waffle and I highly recommend, a long with a amber.

Food was lacking flavour. Very bland. Even my drink tasted watered down. Poor quality for the price.

Awesome!!! I have celiac disease so I called ahead to let them know that I would be coming in and made a reservation. *Side note I get a lot of anxiety at the table and it s hard to me to advocate for myself. I explained my needs, they were confident they their with there ability to ensure that I didn t get sick. They explained there procedures and policies it made me feel really good about going! I ordered the pear salad, it was super tasty. I would highly recommend this restaurant Dietary restrictions: Celiac disease

Fantastic place. Fantastic staff. We have been there 4 times in the last 6 weeks and it has been consistent every time. Food : 5/5

Fantabulous service and the bar manager is super-cute. LChaim!

I cant stand being pressured to tip at least 18 percent when I buy takeout beer.

Seraphina was so lovely! Super attentive and personable. Staff went above and beyond after a reservation mix up. Food and drinks are consistently good - high quality and flavorful. Well be back (again)!

Desserts are second to none.

I have been here a few times its always been consistently good. The food is always fresh in the update the menu all the time. Is relaxing atmosphere allows you to hang around and enjoy your time with friends youre not rushed out the door. One of the best places in Abbotsford to go out for dinner and drinks. Vegetarian options: The vegetarian options are not store bought theyre made in house very good.

amazing food drinks & atmosphere!

Delicious food. Great beer. Friendly service.

One of our favourite go-tos with our daughter, or for a date night. The servers are fantastic and remember my daughter, her name and order, and always make her feel special- she asks to go to brewery fries often especially to see her favourite servers! The food is always consistently good and the beers great. Definitely recommend.

Our first time here and it was just perfect. The staff were all super friendly and welcoming. The beer and food were amazing and the live music was a bonus! We will definitely be back :)

Awesome food and service!

Last night we went to the trading post in Abbotsford for my wife s birthday . I had the chicken and waffles my wife and son had the Mac and cheese and son s gf had the TP burger .All meals were plentiful and delicious.Sam our server did a great job making the evening enjoyable .Good food good service ,we will be back.

We ve had Amy N as our server many times at the Abbotsford location! She makes our experience amazing every time we come! Would recommend this place to anybody looking for a great spot to eat and listen to live music!

Pear green salad , vegetarian tacos and coffee were so good ! Try it out if you are looking for healthy foods !

Excellent food and a great selection of beer. The fried chicken sandwich is excellent.

The best restaurant in Abbotsford.

This was an absolute pleasure of a place to visit. The service was heart warming and the food did nothing less then bring joy to the tastebuds and stomach. You should definitely visit!

Service was awesome food was tasty must try

Outstanding beer Options, great Happy Hour limited menu that is a tad overpriced, love the atmosphere here but can t afford to go often!

Always great service. Hooked on their Smash.

This was our first dining experience in this brewpub. We enjoyed a great lunch of chicken and beef sandwiches with salads. Everything was fresh and delicious. The balance of bun to meat was perfect. Loved the brioche bun. The amber ale was excellent. Quality local ingredients are featured. Friendly service, convenient parking, safe and clean. We ll be back to try more menu items.

Food was excellent..waitresses was great considering how busy it was everything came out in a timely matter. Been here a few times will deffinatly be back.

The food here is always incredible! (I highly recommend the beef dip, corn and saison soup, truffle fries, or Caesar salad) It s become my partner s and my favourite spot to eat at. The environment is so cheerful. The servers do an incredible job and are well informed about the brews on tap. I am not a big beer drinker, but my partner enjoys the beers from here! It s also recently become a space where my family and I meet up to enjoy a meal. Recently, we were seated upstairs and discovered they have games (Jenga, Monopoly and more!). After dinner, we ordered dessert and coffees and stayed to chat and play multiple rounds of Jenga. This space forever is one of my favourites and will always hold a special place in my heart. If you re looking for an incredible environment, great drinks, amazing food and to make lasting memories with your loved ones - look no further! You ve found it here.

A variety of craft beers and light snacks. Friendly server.

Good food, good service.

Food was absolutely amazing! Cant wait to go again!

This last Sunday had lunch at the Trading Post , was a busy afternoon but we still were given a table promptly. The food was great, as our waiter Will was also, and Will picked a perfect flight of drinks for me, from just a cpl hints of my likes.

i really loved this place until they took most of the good vegan/vegetarian options off the menu. other than that the food is still really good, as well as their selection of drinks! however, i would no longer recommend it for vegans or vegetarians looking for different options.

Compliments to, Alara! Visited Trading Post on the weekend for some beer and food. A great selection of beers and a special mention goes to the summer berry sangria (a delicious combination of wine, brandy, and fruits). Ordered the wings and a pulled pork sandwich (Honestly, have eaten better). Something that made this a memorable afternoon was the extraordinary service provided by Alara, who made this worth a review. While you can teach table service, how to carry three plates, and properly serve from the right-hand side something that cannot be faked or taught is genuinely caring for your customers. Alara checked all those boxes and more. She answered all our questions about the menu and was patient, courteous, super friendly, attentive, and let us set the pace and enjoy our meal. And all this, with a smile where she made everything look so effortless. Just wanted to take a moment to compliment the service we received from this extraordinary server. Thank you Alara.

Staff is friendly. The food and drink was great. With the TP Classic you can also ask if you would like it prepared vegan. The vegan burger was simply perfect, I can only recommend it. The ambience is inviting. Nice brewery. There is a bar with stools, you can sit inside and outside.

Beer taste is something special. Food is delicious. Its cool to see enjoying people with music. Good place to have fun with friends on weekend.

Food is delicious! However we have tried it about 5 times. Every single time, my boyfriend and I are both nauseous and sick to our stomachs after. I actually brought a family member there recently too and the same thing happened to them. We have tried ordering different things but it s the same outcome every time. Not sure if it s a different oil that they use or something. Delicious but I cannot go anymore!

Love this place! The atmosphere is really great, interior/décor is awesome, and the staff are kind and attentive. Weve gotten quite a few things from the menu; the prawn taco, truffle cheese fries, and fired chicken sandwich are all really good! My partner has tried many different beers and hes never been disappointed, Ive also been told by a regular that their cocktails are good too! They have music entertainment on Fridays and its always good. This a great spot to hang out with friends or family and have a beer with with some good food.

Alaris (hopefully spelling that right) was such a great server last night. Definitely added to our experience and made the night so so enjoyable. Such confidence and enthusiasm! :)

Great staff, great food!

Great food great atmosphere great service

This is one of my Top five places. The atmosphere is laid back and very welcoming. I have never had bad service from wait staff and wait times from the kitchen are always very reasonable. I almost always get the Raspbery Wheat beer - its so good!! And at my most recent visit, pairing the Raspberry Wheat with the always tastfully rich Truffle Fries, was the perfect after walk snack. The playlists that they have on each time always get me jammin too! If youre looking for a great place to dine and chill out look no further. As an added bonus - the patio is dog friendly! One of the few in the city. This keeps me coming back almost week after week with my fur baby!

Awesome food, fantastic beer, great staff! Dietary restrictions: They are super cautious about food allergies and dietary restrictions. Kept checking and double checking our orders. Even marked the plate with the allergy restriction to make sure everyone got the right food. Lots of gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian options for all to enjoy!

Such a good night. Good food. Good company. Alara - thank you for being awesome and treating us good! Watch out for the pinky snappers! ;)

So Im originally from the states, and went up to Abbotsford to visit with an old friend from high school. She insisted that we stop by Trading Post, and I was absolutely game. The drinks and the food sounded great, and they absolutely were. Not only was this the absolute best food I had in my time in Canada, the service was absolutely something special. Our waitress Alara was the most upbeat and positive person Ive ever met. She was so attentive, and the absolute brightest person in the room. I have an allergy to gluten, and she would triple check that everything was up to par just for me. Not only was she the most incredible server Ive ever met, but probably the most incredible person. You can tell she loves her job, and she was never afraid to laugh and joke with me and my friends. Not only does Alara deserve to get every bit of admiration, she deserves every bit of love you can give her. Absolutely the most incredible experience thanks to her. I am absolutely going to visit my friend more often, just so I can eat here again. And I promise--Ill ask for Alara every time :-)

Alara was the BEST server! The food (as always) was excellent but the service was warm, friendly and efficient! Thank you for a great birthday dinner! Can t wait for my next visit. Well done!!

We visited with a toddler and had a really nice experience. Our waitress was professional and knew exactly what was going on in every table. Its just nice to see when whole team is working seamlessly together on a restaurant and workers with more experience guiding young workers in a right way. Seems like a good place to start your career in the industry too and I look it with 9 years experience of restaurant industry. Parking: Easy access Kid-friendliness: Offered the right table and high chair. Nice kid portion of butter noodles too.

The food is excellent! Favourites are spicy chicken sandwich and the Summer Salad.I would have rated a 5 star except for a very bad experience with the front staff. Hostess completely went past me to seat people that were obviously behind me. I was stunned. When she returned I asked if there was some reason she bypassed me. The evening manager inserted herself into the conversation and apologized for the misunderstanding and asked if I wanted to sit in or out on the patio. I said inside (very hot day). Then she starts telling me there are 2 patio areas, so I said no, inside. Then she just looked at me so I assumed she didn t hear me so I said inside once again. I was absolutely floored when she said I m sorry you had a bad experience coming in, but there s no reason to talk to me in that manner . I was NOT rude, using foul language or being aggressive. So within a few minutes of being somewhere I enjoyed going to, my evening was ruined. A day later this experience is still biting me, hence this review.

Our server Anna was very accommodating and went above and beyond to make our experience here pleasant. Very friendly staff and a clean environment to top it off.

Quite happy with the Amber ale and some of their other beers , it is nice to see a place that has brewed a decent beer with reasonable abv ,too many craft breweries these days are pushing the abv too high for a session beer I stopped by with the wife the other day to try the food ,,it was very good but the staff seemed a little disjointed or confused it was a slow time but we were a little neglected but I dont think its a normal occurrence so Ill give them the benefit of the doubt. A friend of mine bought a condo next door so Ill definitely be over during happy hour when the beers are reasonably priced . There isnt a half star rating but they are close enough to a 4,, Amber ale is still one of the best beers out there, Amber ale is still

Been multiple times and so far it s awesome! Great service and tasty rich food with killer beer to wash is down with! Especially cool to see the leaders helping out on the floor when the action picks up! Shout out to the server I essentially threw a flat bread on! Thanks for being chill!!!

Had an awesome hazy ipa and the best chicken sandwich! Staff is really friendly and live misic is great.

Worse food ever! Both burgers we ordered were so oversalted I couldnt even finish mine. Truffle fries had parmesan straight from a store bought shaker on them. Dont waste your food money here!

Went with a friend and had the farmers falafel bowl here. Was my first time here and wasnt sure what to expect. Pretty big location, the food was great, and the server was nice. Great place to go with a group of friends for drinks and food.

Amazing food and drinks, really pretty brewery and friendly staff.

Highly recommended!

Good food and space for families. We sat on the patio which was a very nice outdoor space and the service was great inspite of them being a bit short staffed.

Good beer, great staff

Husband and I were excited to try this place out. We were seated quickly, no server acknowledged us, no water no drink order taken for about 15/20 mins, but watched TWO other tables who were seated after us get served and put their orders in. So frustrating, had to go and find a sever to let her know we had been there first and waiting very long w no one taking any order. So that was a bad start lol We ordered spicy chicken burger w truffle fries that was delicious, prawn tacos super dry (needs some serious sauce), and chips and Salmon dip tasty. Red Wine was ok, I realize its more for beer and my husband enjoyed his. We also asked for the appy first (salmon dip) and they came all together w our dinner. Would we go back ?? Hmmm service was poor and food was ok!

My favourite place to grab a beer and a bite in Abbotsford. Great food, great beer and great staff.

Best brew pub in Abbotsford. Staff are friendly, efficient & knowledgeable about beers & menu. Enjoyed an incredible smoked salmon, pickled onion, caper & cream cheese flatbread, plus a delectable pumpkin cheesecake pot. Our favourite go to eatery. You have to try it!

Food was good and staff very friendly and prompt

We just had my husband s birthday dinner here and I was very impressed with the service! We were quite a large group and the staff got all of our food out very quickly! I highly recommend this restaurant for any of your events!

Alana was a super fun server, and the vibes were fantastic. I won t hesitate to pop back in next time I m hanging out on this side of town!

Great spot to meet up with friends! Very pleased with the food, drinks and environment. We sampled a flight of beer, truffle fries, falafel bites, and the pumpkin cheesecake, and found that all of it outdid our expectations. Perhaps most importantly to me, the service was incredible. Our waitress Alara was more than just polite, she was fun and real and eager to go the extra mile. We were never left waiting to be seen, and her check-ins felt genuine and unscripted, including a few personal recommendations when we were indecisive. Absolutely wonderful time, I will certainly be back! Vegetarian options: I am not personally vegetarian, but there were many v marked options including the falafel bites which we all found delightful.

I love this brewery, not only do they have great beer selections, the foods are also very yummy! I highly recommend the fried pork rinds, such a great drinking snack and goes extremely well with beer. They are so crispy and served pipping hot that you can still hear them popping on the plate. The burger is also very juicy. Tacos are very flavourful. Not to mention that they have a dog friendly patio so I can bring my puppy. Id definitely come back or check out their other locations.

Fun drinks and great food options. We had the tacos with the pork rinds to start (which were amazing!). Im not a beer fan but they had other fun non-beer drinks too! They had great live music which wasnt too loud so could still enjoy conversation amongst our table. Parking is hard to come by unfortunately and I recommend a reservation unless you dont mind waiting. Parking: Hardly any parking

Chef Scott is the best!!! Warm winter salad for the win!!!

Always delicious food

We love the food and the vibe here at the abbotsford location. Often visit our friends across at the Hudson Lofts, the food is great and the beer is good. I suggest the chicken burger it is fantastic.

Prices seemed a little high, portions seemed a little small, food took quite long. I ordered the monthly feature turkey poutine, it was $19 and left me hungry afterwards. I d have enjoyed red Robin more.

Today was my first time here and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this place. I tried a flight of beers and loved everyone of them. We had the jalapeño beer cheese dip and braised beef tacos which were both so so good. We sat on the enclosed patio which was super warm and cozy. Clean washrooms, and great service. Our server was awesome. Definitely going to be coming back here. Kid-friendliness: Lots of little kiddos at other tables and a kids menu.

I had a Caesar salad take out, it took 20 min and was only lettuce and few croutons with dressing a side nothing else

Every time we stop in at the Trading Post. Best food and service!
