Had a great pizza and drinks last night. On arrival we were quickly seated and ordered drinks from the extensive list of beers on tap. Seeing the food on other tables, which all looked great, we decided to limit ourselves to an Italian Sausage pizza. The pizza crust was very much to our liking, thin and crispy. The toppings had a great flavour. Service was very good. Would recommend this establishment.

Such a hip little place. Perfect for a late evening dinner. We spent four days in Campbell River and ate at Sessions twice. Food and service the first night very good!! We had a custom pizza, feta dip and a couple drinks. It all was delicious!! Second night there were 4 of us. Ordered nachos, a couple pizzas, fish tacos and some drinks. One of the pizzas didn't seem to be cooked as well, it was soggy. I love fish tacos and since they advertised their local lingcod tacos, I had to try them. Not the best. They were very water and the fish...ehhh blah. I was disappointed. Service started out great, but slowly the waitress came by less and drink orders took longer. It's a great place and we would definitely go back!

We had an amazing dinner at Session! Drink menu is fantastic between the craft beer selection and cocktails. Pizza was top notch! Our waitress was so kind and attentive. We really liked the atmosphere here. Highly recommend!

A better than it has to be place with fussy food that is good. The beer list is pretty good and when you are lucky, you will find something that is really good. The stand out was a kiwi beer. Yup, kiwi.

Good food. Good people. We were passing through the town and came here for lunch. Enjoyed it! And went back for some more for dinner. Honestly didn't expect much from this town but was pleasantly surprised. Great ambience too.

Our 1st night in Campbell River, we chose Sessio. To eat as they had good reviews. And they were well deserved. We had they BBQ chicken pizza between the 2 of us, and it was so good, followed by the mango and coconut cheesecake 😋. We also had 2 flights of beer, and they were pretty good as well. Personally I really didn't lime the sours, but that's my opinion. Prices were not to bad either. Our server was also cheerful and polite. I would recommend trying this place. For people used to eating late evening, like a lot of Brits, Sessions closes at 8pm

Session Taproom is a gem of a bar and eatery. It has a great atmosphere. The staff are so friendly and helpful. They recommended some very good local beers and lager. We ordered the fully loaded chorizo pizza (made on site), and it was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Session was so good, we went back the following night.

Had dinner here one night while spending the weekend in Campbell River. Both my girlfriend and I weren't that happy with our experience here. I will start with the good and say the beers were 10/10, loved them. The atmosphere is also very nice in there and staff were quite friendly. The bad was the food. We only tried 2 things to be fair - Bison meatballs & Mexican street corn pizza, but both we're less than average in my opinion. The meatballs them self were decent but it came with a side of "garlic Naan." It didn't makes sense and was kind of dry. Pizza was very sauce heavy and just not good. Perhaps a red sauce pizza was the way to go

Spending a weekend in Campbell river and needed to find a good restaurant that also had gluten-free options. This was an unexpected gem with an unassuming shopfront on the highway, but once we went inside it was a warm and welcoming place with a lot of charm. The food was extremely fresh and lots of choice for our gluten-free companion - dishes that were naturally gluten-free and those that could be made gluten-free on request. Our server was very friendly and helpful and our food delicious - extremely large pizzas, so unless you are hungry, one will easily feed two people!

Their Tuscan feta dip & tuna poke + guac appies were excellent. I also tried the Walnut sausage and Mexican street corn pizzas; honestly was some of the best pizza I ve had. I wasn t drinking, but their mocktails (I had the Paloma & Lavender Lemonade) were also excellent. 5 stars across the board!! Worth the price. Vegetarian options: Their vegetarian pizzas are savoury and delicious.

I visited this place last week while in Campbell River. Loved it, good beers and the food was super solid pub fare.

April 21, 2024

So in fairness, I cannot comment on the food, because we weren t able to acquire any ! Came in around 7 on a Saturday night and were told by what we assumed was a manager that they had an event that evening - a comedy show. Great - any tickets available ? He wasn t sure. We asked are you sold out? And he replied as far as I know . How the manager wouldn t know if they were sold out is hard to fathom. So we tried to ordering a pizza - which he originally said was going to be acceptable. Alas, the kind of pizza we ordered would take too long we were told, so, after all that, we were out of luck. Would have been far simpler to have said, I m so sorry, we are closed Might be a great place, but the customer relations on this night was terrible.

I am so happy that Session is in our community. It is one of very few places locally where we can bring our entire family and every single one of us can find something on the menu that we not only enjoy, we love and look forward to going back for again! We are a family of five and have picky eaters, three of us have significant food allergies, and we have never, ever had a disappointing meal. The food is always fresh, creative, delicious, and the portions are beyond substantially filling. We constantly get drawn in by the ever changing options provided that we see on Instagram. As a Chef myself, I love knowing I can go there, have a 10/10 experience every single time, and I dont have to eat for the remainder of the day. The service staff and Chefs are super friendly and accommodating too! The atmosphere is casual but comfortable, unpretentious, the place is squeaky clean, cozy and an added bonus is that for a small space it isnt noisy! I love this place, and my family does too. If you get the opportunity to try the Ramen do it, and ask for a little extra spice if you like some heat. Pizzas are incredible and leftovers reheat nicely if you cannot finish, do get a dip, the truffle one is so over the top good. And nachos, they are crispy and tasty and unlike the soggy boring pub style, these ones are a treat to indulge in and every chip is covered in goodness, and if you cannot finish them and have to take them home, they remain crispy for hours. Dont even get me started on the skillet meatballs, whatever type they are currently offering is a mandatory selection for the table to get started. Dietary restrictions: Lots of available options for dietary restrictions, and as a guest who enjoys sitting at the bar or hightop across from the bar, the kitchen is highly visible and I enjoy seeing the kitchen crew conduct their business with efficacy and patron safety being a top priority. Kid-friendliness: Our kids love it at Session and when they are asked where they want to it, it is their first choice. The kids menu is great, there are lots of great seating options regardless of ages, and they have colouring equipment too. Oh, did I mention wifi that doesnt cut out? Bring Nintendo Switch, shhhhhh.... Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible by wheelchair and a variety of seating options are available for people with any kind of disability.

I recently dined Session Taproom + Kitchen, and I was thoroughly impressed. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, and the service was exceptional.

I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

Great food and tap list. Horrible service. Literally had to stand up and wave down our server any time we wanted anything. They dropped off drinks and immediately turned away from us to roll silverware behind the bar while looking the other way. Took 30 min before we could get our food order in. It wasn t busy, they were either super burned out or just weren t good at their jobs. Table next to us left because they couldn t get anyone s attention. So disappointed, we really enjoyed our last time in here. Edit: looking through other reviews, there is a clear trend for horrible service. To whoever the manager is responding to all the negative reviews about service, I was in on the evening of 6/11. You have at least a couple staff that need a lot of coaching.

From Hot rods to RV. Saw an American RV hauling his personal Helicopter. Menu made to please. Pizzas the thin crust variety. Has a couple of tvs over the bar. Happy hour 3-5 weekdays, {see my photos for pricing} Oh my, the washroom. Real towels to dry your hands. How great is that.

The decor was simple, with amazing and quick service and very attentive servers.We ordered Strawberry Sour beer, Marina-mild beer,and the Wal-not Sausage vegetarian pizza. Everything tasted really great and I will be back again when in Campbell River. Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options for appetizers,bowls and pizzas.

Went in to eat, started with the baked brie and chorizo meatballs as an appetizer and got the piggy pizza and chorizo for main course. Food was exceptional and service was friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, and the view from the patio was especially nice. Great place for vegan and gluten free options too, would definitely come again

Wonderful lunch. The chorizo pizza was a party in the mouth. The Raised-By-Wolves IPA was a well-balanced, flavourful brew. Lovely service. Well deserving of 5 stars

We were in from Calgary and my daughter in law strongly recommended this restaurant. All of our dishes had a high level of uniqueness and were very tasty. The Kale Caesar was one of the best ever. Nice people with great service to boot.

Honestly was an interesting experience. I praise the ownership for offering a full sized gluten free pizza for a $5 price tag. The Italian sausage pizza was delicious. The service was sub par. Our server came back several times about our gluten free pizza. It also took close to 40 minutes while other guests received their food even though they had ordered after us. The bartender looked so angry the entire time and the other server was a space cadet breathing all over the food in the window. The 2 servers were rolling cutlery while food sat in the window. Just oblivious to the kitchens work. Considering the kitchen actually cared about my spouses allergy and were the only reason those initial come backs from the server even happened, that irked me. The pizza is fantastic but maybe order take out. That way you can avoid the disorganized mess out front.

It was so good I didn t take pictures! Everything about this little treasure was amazing! We sailed into Campbell River with no expectations - happened upon Sessions by searching for a restaurant that was open on a Monday! Not disappointed in any way! Food - amazing! Nachos were fantastic - definitely not your run of the mill - who knew Walnut Sausage was a thing?? Pizza terrific! Drink options? Oh hell ya!! Staff were super knowledgeable and friendly! Cannot say enough! Almost didn t want to leave this review because I want to keep this a secret!! But it s out now! Must try when in Campbell River! We ll be back!! Vegetarian options: Love the Walnut Sausage!! Tried to get the recipe but was denied!!! Lol Dietary restrictions: Awesome vegetarian and GF options!

Great place: we ordered and shared the Tropic like its Hot pizza, a cappuccino, pineapple juice and the featuring cheesecake with peach and walnut and vanilla whipped cream. It was very very tasty: fresh products and creative receipes. The staff was professional and very kind and the atmosphere and music were relaxed and just right for a cosy evening together. Next time we come back we will try the beer tasting!

Lively place, nice for a casual eat. Great service, excellent choice of Pizza, including for vegetarians. Portions are big so you might want to share the pizza. Gave it four stars because the hummus starter needed more olive oil, but it came with crunchy chick peas and homemade pita chips which were amazing.

they do spin classes in the back - the instructors are great and then you can go out front and have a cocktail! Nothing beats it! Parking: parking isnt great but there is a lot across the street for the park. I normally park there.

Too be honest, I had a great experience a year ago here this time we had a friendly server, but sadly our order was ruined due to a basic exclusion being ignored I understand it might have been a long day but no compensation at the end. Apparently the chef had left already so I never had a chance to have dinner and still was given a bill by a new waitress (possible manager) with a terrible attitude. Definitely will not return Also witnessed them throw said untouched pizza in the trash. Come on now

I just stopped in with a friend to have a beer, so I cant say anything about the food. The service was good. We didnt wait at all for our drinks and the employees were pleasant. The atmosphere is modern and welcoming. I know Ill be back to properly experience The food and drinks.
