Brought to you by The Joseph Richard Group, Oak & Thorne offers a comfortable atmosphere & exceptional service with delicious house-made meals, craft beer, cocktails and a great wine list. Complete with arcade games, ping-pong, foosball, skee-ball and great events. Our fun filled family-friendly play space by day and adult hot spot by night is the perfect escape
Some friends and I booked reservations here for the Tyson vs Paul fight and we had a really great time! The service was great, even with it being crazy busy and the food was delicious. We will definitely go back!
Understaffed at 1pm on a Friday. Took about 10 minutes to place an order. Got our food at 1:40 with ten minutes to eat before leaving to go back to work. Buttermilk chicken sandwich was overcooked, coleslaw tasted 5+ days old from the fridge, not enough, sauce was virtually non existent.
Thorne in my side maybe. Hard to rate the food when they never brought it. Staying at the Sandman and went for happy hour with a group. Half the things we ordered off the menu they didn’t have. Went for brunch the next day and waited over an hour for food and eventually left after getting tired of hearing it’s coming right away. The last time we asked he just said he didn’t know if it was coming. People who arrived later were being served food. No offer to comp drinks or anything. Just excuses. Poorly managed spot.
This place is amazing!!! They turn into a nightclub on weekends. I went on a Friday night for the After Dark Halloween Party, and I had an absolute blast. The servers were great, and the DJ was playing epic tunes! I danced the night away. I'm so excited to have my birthday party here!!! I also love all the artwork on the walls/ceiling, AND they have a little arcade section, too, which is awesome!
Went to oak and Thorne last night as the prices were decent. We got there and had an amazing waitress. We got our pepperoni pizza within 15-20 min it was so oily and as I took my first bite I saw a mouse run across the floor near the entry way of the restaurant. Will not be going back
2nd time coming here and both times were good vibes! Quick and easy to get, good drinks, food was okay, I like the interior layout and music was great both times!
Came once for a fundraiser, once because we wanted late night wings (and it happened to be in nightclub mode), and once for lunch. On all three occasions the food was decent and the service was very attentive and friendly. Prices are fair. I feel like the fried foods (wings, fries, fish tacos) retain too much oil (a sign of the oil not being hot enough) but the overall flavours are good. Food is served until late on weekends and there aren’t too many options nearby.
Great food but the service for the second part of our visit was not so great. The inside of this restaurant is very spacious with lots of great spots to sit. The decor is great and I especially loved the bookshelves and perusing the books that were there. They have a good selection on their menu and some good options for happy hour. Had the corn dog happy hour and wished I had ordered the trio as it was very tasty. I enjoyed the perogies and my friend had the fish and chips- both were delicious. The French fries were especially delicious- nice and crisp and very flavourful... I would come back just for the fries. Near the end it felt like our server had forgotten us. And when we were finally able to ask for our bill, it took about ten minutes before she reappeared. This was annoying, but overall I still think it's a great restaurant and I look forward to coming back, and hopefully the service will be better next time!
DONT try the butter chicken. Clearly they need a basic lesson on this dish.
It was a beautiful venue and the alcohol drinks were said to be great the non alcoholic drinks were very undrinkable I m sorry to say and the buffet style food was soggy and I didn t eat much so do go for the atmosphere and alcoholic beverages
Went here for a friends birthday party, I didnt get any food, but the atmosphere was amazing and the waitress was so great. I only wished they had wished her a happy birthday when the dancing got going since this was booked for over a month so they knew her event was happening and I think that would have really made it above and beyond kind of service.
Worst food i have ever eaten . Too much oil in everything including fries and fish Service is too slow Dont even bring the right order
Good!!!
Neat place. Lots of tvs. Great for football. A little pricey on the beers and wings. Go at Happy Hour.
Had some happy hour appetizers. They were okay but portions were quite small.
Food isn t memorable, but the service is always good, and it s a great place to watch a game or catch the ufc
Great spot for pub food and drinks. Excellent happy hour deals.
Place is ok but the food was simply awful.. We had a large party of people and everyone thought that the food was terrible
Fun place, had great service here. A server was kind enough to carry out some shots to us on the dance floor on Halloween. Really added to the night. Every staff member I talked to was friendly and helpful
We used to like this place but the food is not very good and the menu never changes. My husband ordered chicken wings and literally got 5 pieces and was charged $18.75. The service is hit and miss. Sometimes youre just ignored. We wont be back anytime soon.
The service was garbage. The waitress forgot our order, then when she brought the order she forgot the spoons forks etc, then I had to ask another waitress for cutlery. She even asked one person what they wanted and then walked away before asking my friend what he wanted then we called her back. Worst service ever.
This is my watering hole.
Nice little arcade to keep the kids busy, if you want to hang out a little longer than normal. Good food.
Food is good and the service is great
So dark!
A little noisy for those of us who do not shout at each other to be heard. Seems to be ok for the younger folks!
They show ufc here
I ordered some take-out after watching a movie with my 6 year old at the theater next door. When I got there the security told me Friday and Saturdays this is a night club and I cant being my daughter with me to get my takeout order. They told me to leave my kid in the car by herself at 9 30 at night shes not even 6. I asked if one of them could help me and get my order they replied not my job. Total jerks if I had not already paid I would of been happy to not collect the food and never return to this place. Just a quick heads up to anyone with kids that think this might he a good place to grab some take out, its not and the security guys will let you know you it.
Holiday drinks ...
First time there they had it all including games room I hear it rocks Monday night football good prizes Wheelchair accessibility: Good no problems
August 24th, 2024. My drink was drugged tonight. Another guest at Oak and Throne drugged my drink tonight. A friend in our group noticed a young male guest who had walked up to myself and another female friend in our group (we were in a secluded area) had drugged my drink that was sitting on the table right beside me as I was standing beside the table while chatting with a female friend in the group I was with. The friend who noticed my drink was drugged by a random guest at Oak, immediately grabbed my drink (that was drugged) and brought it to the bar/the bartenders attention and they did not care. They dumped my drugged drink and made her BUY a new one. Disgusting that they made her buy a new drink knowing that they dumped a FULL DRUGGED DRINK and did not kick out the guy who attempted to drug one of their customers. He was able to leave on his own accord. Thankfully, I was with a group of people who ensured my safety after realizing someone drugged my drink, Oak and Thorne staff did not ensure my safety after being aware my drink was drugged.
Had Happy Hour with friends and noticed almost every bill, the product was a dollar more than posted on the menu. Had to straighten it out but took some time. This shouldnt have happened. Food
Really nice place and their prices are very reasonable.
Good drinks, good memories
2 Coronas. 24 dollars. Not sure how anyone can afford to go out anymore. These prices are out of control. Feel completely ripped off.
Food and service was horrible
Pauly was an amazing bartender! He made sure he was paying attention to anyone who was waiting and treated everyone right!! LETS GO PAULY!!!!
A car was beeping in their parking lot for over an hour and a half at 1 am. They did not pick up the phone once, even though I called 3 times (during hours they were opened). What s the point of having a phone if you re not gonna pick it up. And why are we letting a car beep in your parking lot for over an hour? Surely you can hear the beeping, but then again, you can t even hear the phone so who knows. You re next to a hotel and other living spaces, please for the love of god let people sleep peacefully at 1 in the morning.
Good server but mice ran around us the entire time. I literally screamed and talked to the server about it but they said they were doing their best to deal with it. I 100% dont blame the server at all, but their management. Disgusting. Unnerving to order food from here.
Vegetarian options: Not much for vegetarian Wheelchair accessibility: Yes Food : 5/5 |
I don t know why you open multiple restaurants on doordash if you don t know how to serve your delivery drivers.. The restaurant is completely empty only one person had dine in.. 3 servers are working there not even a single person came to me and ask about the order.. i wait over 20mins to watch their faces.. THATS NOT THE FIRST TIME WHEN THIS HAPPENS.. MANAGEMENT YOU HAVE TO WORK ON THIS.. Atleast treat delivery drivers as the same way you treat your customers.. We are also same humans.. REALLY DISAPPOINTING L.
This restaurant don t respected customer! Hope you lose soon with your business!
I visited the restaurant to watch the England vs. Netherlands game and was disappointed by the service. Despite being a packed lunch crowd, there to watch the game there were only two waitresses and one barman to serve everyone. It took an hour just to get our drinks a Pepsi and an iced tea. We tried to order food, but there was no one available to take our order. For a sports bar, it was severely understaffed. This experience was frustrating and detracted from the enjoyment of the game.
It s your typical more high end style bar. Food is overpriced for what it actually is. But not to say it s bad or anything. It s flavourful and you get a smaller to moderate portion size.
A damn shame, the food is horrible. The cheap breakfast was a good deal though, the bacon was awesome. The chicken strips are by far the worst I have ever had, I couldnt even eat 1 strip that was rock hard.
Food was great. We went for the England game and staff were super lovely they made room for us even when we didnt have a reservation will for sure return
Very nice setting for lunch, not noisey, very friendly staff
It was alright. Service was alright. Crowd was decent. Overall a mid bar might go again but never again solo. As a night out solo it was boring. Definitely bring a friend
Not a bad place until I had to go to the washroom. Here right now and they have a bathroom attendant! Seriously? I havent had to have that awkward exchange for about 10 years. Do yourself a favor and leave when you need to use the bathroom, or use the parking lot.
Nice place to go for appys and drinks.
Cool atmosphere, okay food, below average service. It s not the politeness or the speed of the service it s the lack of wanting to make the experience enjoyable for the paying customer. I came in to watch the game (alone on a business trip). I gestured to an open table that looked nice can I sit there to watch the game? They responded you can enjoy the game at the bar . By the way plenty of room. I ordered the fish tacos, can I sub the chips for fries? No you pay extra . Literally did the same thing at the Trading Post last night with no extra cost.
I did not realize.I was on the gravel stripang nine dollars for a pint of beer in langley Are you? Guys kidding me. A double rum and coke is ten fifty and yet a pint of draft beer is nine dollars Sorry, JRG group. I will never come back here again.
10/10
Just back from catching 7th game between Oilers and Canucks. Packed house, half off appy night as well so took a while for food but understandable. Appys as usual were great, drinks were good and staff terrific. Reason for writing this is to offer a shout out to Brook who I understand was managing. She regonized things were challenging and made sure us customers were looked after as best she could. Bought the table a round of drinks just to say thank you. Great job tonight Brook and the rest of the staff at Oak! PS... Atmosphere gets 3 stars for viewing sports until you get a legit large screen tv instead of the projector, cmon man.
Terrible service! They will kick you out for no reason! Zero respect! Never coming back
The bartender, sorry, I am terrible with names, was so friendly and welcoming!!!
Its definitely a young hangout.
Good food, good price, nice atmosphere, kid friendly
Went here for lunch on Sunday and they have a special: 2 eggs, 2 sausages, 2 pieces of toss and hash browns for $5. That alone is worth the trip. Also, very nice place that wasnt busy in Sunday. It might be nutty on a Friday night, but its a great place for Sunday lunch. Loved it.
Walked in, sat down right in front of the bar. There was no other customers around us. We did not get acknowledged at all, sat there for 13 mins, as we were gonna wait 15, but left after the waitress walked passed us for the last time. Horrible service. Walked out and still not a word. We know they saw us. Just didn t care. Won t be back.
I just got married on April 20th 2024. We are in our late 40 s and it wasn t our 1st wedding so we wanted to do something fun that we like and have an intimate wedding with our closest friends and family of 40 guests. We had originally chosen Walnut Grove Pub as they have a pool table and Karaoke. So we booked our friend Sandy Chow to host our ceremony and be the Karaoke DJ who also plays on Fridays at that pub, their DJ on Saturdays is super rude to new patrons so we had requested to swap for our special day. The owner after signing a contract with us. 12 days before the wedding send a bizarre email stating that we wouldn t get dedicated staff, our DJ that was already booked wouldn t be allowed, no minors, and whole lot of new rules and regulations even after we were giving them assured business.. in a way that was a blessing in disguise coz that is what made us switch to the lovely Oak & Thorne and a special shout out to their manager Jazmine Upper who went above and beyond to make our wedding day extra special. I am at a loss for words - I don t know how to express my gratitude to Jazmine who being a manager took it upon herself to serve us to make sure that our day was treated the best possible way. They had given us the games room which was exclusive for us and allowed us to decorate and convert it to a beautiful area for guests to witness the ceremony and continue the merriment. We were allowed to bring minors, we were allowed to throw confetti, we were allowed to everything we wanted. Both my husband Randy and I are super happy with this change of venue as (a) it was a way better and classier venue in comparison to Walnut Grove Pub and Bistro, (b) the staff is so awesome, way better than the other venue (c) the staff is honest and don t cheat their patrons by over charging them which the other venue has done on multiple occasions. I can go and on. Thank you once again Oak & Thorne Langley TWP and Jazmine Upper for making our wedding perfect .. the way we envisioned it and more.. so now you guys can host weddings and add it to your portfolio. Cheers and only good wishes to all of you guys Vegetarian options: Amazing vegetarian dishes Dietary restrictions: They serve vegan food and respect all your restrictions and have great options Parking: The venue is attached to the Sandman Hotel and has free parking lot for atleast 100 cars I think Kid-friendliness: They do have a games room so it really entertains kids they also allow infants and minors till 8pm inside and 10pm outside on the patio as they place converts to a club after 9pm Wheelchair accessibility: They have wheel chair accessibility on the side of the venue
There are staff here overstepping their boundaries outside of the establishment. Notably the parking police whom need to check their priviledge and how they speak to people. Also, the notes on cars is childish.
Its alright. The cool cats come out at night tho The music for the dance floor was absolutely trash, no good songs and just hard to dance to songs. Ive also ran into alot of douches here so watch out
I haven t heard very many good things about this place but my friends and I wanted to go out dancing for a birthday in our group.. instant issues with the bouncers and the management. They protect the wrong people and do NOT keep women safe it seems like. Just a bunch of egotistical security hoping a fight will pursue so they can fight with someone. We literally watched them tackle someone from behind in a situation basic communication could ve been used. It s not the people inside you need to feel unsafe around, but the bouncers. Pretty gross that management seemed to encourage their behaviour too, all just a big power trip. WOMEN KEEP AWAY. So unsafe.
Arcade machines!
Nice setting. Better organization though. Dont fall for the trick of sitting wherever you want, Be visible, or you wont get served. Unfortunately, bigger businesses have packed up with similar errors. If i have to create a fuss to eat, i would rather stay home.
The food and service was awful. No one greeted us at the door to seat us, a waitress ran past us and told to find a seat that isnt reserved, sure ok np. Then we waited for 15 mins for a waitress when she came, she forgot to bring the menus. Then she disappeared for another 20 mins, I had to go find her to take down our order. The drinks took another 15 mins to arrive. The place was not packed. All in, it was a 1 hour before we got our food. I took one bite of the cajun alfredo and realized Im about to waste my $$$ here. Pasta was overcooked, mushy, and flavourless. The chicken was obviously the cheap overly processed chicken. The meat was grainy - gross! Probably the mildest, unseasoned cajun chicken of all time. Avoid this place. establishments like this dont deserve your hard earned money. Way better options in Langley
Gets pretty busy but great place to party lots of games to play
The food is ok but the service and atmosphere is terrible. Disrespectful management and employees as well as terrible customer service and discrimination. Avoid this place at all costs if you want to go somewhere to party but besides that food during the day is average.
Excellent breakfast! Fun adult place to hang out !
Made a reservation for 20 people this past Saturday for brunch. When we got there the tables were busy, but the girl doing our service seemed to be doing the most. We tried to be patient with her but she didn t handle the situation well, she started to get short and snappy with us. Drinks were taking forever, and we d notice the bartender on his cellphone while we were waiting 20 mins for our drinks. Water didn t come, and when one of the girls got up to get her own water the waitress noticed and brought her over another water very passive aggressively as if she was annoyed she had gotten up and got her own water . It had been at least 30 mins waiting on a water. Overall a terrible experience, I felt bad for our server but with that being said she took it out on us and got snappy with us. She wasn t welcoming and honestly we felt like a huge inconvenience for her. This location needs a better system, cause more money could have been made on drinks and even food if we could have gotten them served to us.
Good atmosphere, the food could be better, the waiter is not good enough, lazy.
Went when it wasn t too busy so the service was great, staff was very attentive and brought our drinks/refills pretty quickly. Food was decent, only got a photo of the more impressive order, fried pickles were a little disappointing but the rest was good.
We loved the decor here. Of particular note were two walls lined with dusty old books that gave it a comfy den-like vibe. We were there with a large group which arrived at all different times and all needed separate receipts. They seemed to handle it well. The food is typical pub fare. I had the quesadilla and enjoyed it. The Guinness was cold and properly poured.
The chef does a great job. Great food.
Turn down for what. Get some. Update: Part 2. Got turnt. Update part 3: Saturday nights is best night. Food : 5/5
Great environment, but I cant get past $17 for a small serving of about 6 mediocre wings. Parking: Hotel parking only near the pub
Enjoyable vibe with great service
I found the bouncers to be rude and the music is not great. All the girls I spoke to wanted to dance but only knew 1 out of about 5 songs. Wait staff and bartenders are lovely and made the experience worth it :)
Had our monthly team event organized here. Restaurant has decent food and drinks options, along with a fun selection of arcade games.
They lost my ID and gave it to someone else said there was nothing they could do abt it
Power trip bouncers. Long line for absolutely NO reason. Waited over 45 mins, and when we got inside, it was maybe half full. Takes forever to get a drink, but the bartenders are at least very sweet. DJ is meh. Do not reccomend this place. Never used to be like this.
Server named Summer is atrociously rude and has absolutely no respect for the guests in the space. She is entitled and condescending and ruined my experience at oak and Thorne. Completely disrespected my privacy by walking in on me in the bathroom as I was using the washroom claiming I was throwing up as I was peeing which is completely disrespectful of my privacy. I am reaching out to higher levels of management and ownership in this business to have disciplinary actions taken as I am someone who also works in the service industry and feel as though I was greatly mistreated and disrespected.
Great food and beer selection.
Go to place for weekend brunch. I love their 4.99 breakfast special and hubby loves the omelets. 3 dollar mimosas dont hurt either! Staff always friendly and very accommodating
This place is gem of a kind. I really liked the whole tour that I took myself as it was a quite night with no-one else but me and my boyfriend. We had a blast as the big restaurant with all its amenities was all ours. 1. The seating is huge with two floors. Lounges , dinning tables and what not. 2. Second it has live dj and the pub is open late on weekends for dj parties 3. Food and service is excellent. We not only enjoyed the food but played a good match of table tennis. There is a big section dedicated to games as well. I am setting this place as my go to and for sure one of my events will take place here.
Gemma is a super server and even better person
I frequent Townhall Langley often and love it there, so we ventured here as it is within the JRG brand and were fairly disappointed. It just didnt have the same vibe; staff were not as personable, food was not as good. I will be headed back to Townhall!
Pub grub what else can I say wasnt bad wasnt through the roof either
small portion appy no hard copy menu have to Qr it not the best when your is acting up. Waitress is no were to be found guess thats why everyone sits at the bar.
Great atmosphere, decent service. Menu is ok, but definitely needs some refinement. Wing sauce options are boring and bland, Franks red hot doesnt match the prestige of this place, it should be something in house, house kitchen is obviously more than capable.
Dietary restrictions: Order lots of alcohol Kid-friendliness: The people(bouncers or whatever their called letting people in were weird and inexperienced and don t really know how to deal with people
Was there last night with friends. The cheese burger was tiny ( wheres the beef ???) The TV volume was blarring so basically impossible to socialize. Server was very nice and took good care of us . Thumbs down.
Was there last night with friends. It was the drag queen bingo night. The energy was great and our service was amazing. She helped us out, after the drag queen walked to our table and took a sip out of my friends wine glass after my friend said no please don t (not very sanitary) . Our service apologized and brought my friend a new glass. The food was okay. The nachos and the fish tacos were quite greasy.
We arrived 10 minutes before 6, we sat and were not acknowledged for some 10 minutes. The server was confrontational for the get go. And immediately barked that we missed happy hour. I have eaten here before and the food was unsatisfying, giving them a second try was obviously a mistake. We walked over to Browns, where we were greeted politely and enthusiastically. Seated and served within 5 minutes. And they were operating near capacity.
So delicious
Good ambience
Very dependent on the constantly changing staff. The first evenings were great (nachos are recommended). Then suddenly our almost 19 year old son (would have turned 19 in 4 weeks) couldnt get any more beer in our presence and on the last evening we had to leave the restaurant at 8 p.m. because apparently there is a law about that in British Columbia. We were still able to get beer in the liquid store next door for the first few days, but we were no longer allowed to buy from another saleswoman in the presence of our son. None of this happened to us before, during our Campertpour. We were even allowed to take part in a wine tasting as a group of three. Here, as in Germany, the laws are handled quite differently. But Canada still remains a breathtaking country for us. Well definitely come back. Greetings Werner Dreher and family
Great food and pleasant service, despite my larger group we where well looked after and enjoyed our variety of meals or I sure know I did!
Terrible service .. bouncers worst that bartenders & that s hard to reach
Went for a couple beers and a snack after work today. They serve Lucky Lager and have big buck hunter to keep you occupied. What a country!
Found this place /& Love it. We have been here twice & have had great food service & enjoyed the ambiance
A group of us checked in to Sandman and went to Pub for some food and drink . Had to go through 5 bouncers and show ID 3 times to get in .God forbid I forgot my glasses and had to go get them only to go through the same scenario 3 mins later . I was questioning how sketchy is this place to go through 5 bouncers to get a mediocre sandwich to a local pub and eatery . Bouncers pulled total attitude when I questioned them . Were all late 40s and 50s and far from lookin gansta
Stood for 10 minutes before being told to find a comfortable seat. Found one. Then sat for 15 minutes before I walked out. Lost 25 minutes of my life that I will never get back.
Met 75 grads from-.NSSS 45 YEARS AGO. IT WAS GREAT.
The atmosphere of the oak & Thorne is really cool, with the rustic book case and the cool pictures they have on the celling but unfortunately the food is the opposite. We ordered a few different things and the fish and chips were good But everything else was mediocre at best.
Uchi is the best bartender!! However service speed at a table is so slow.
Great vibe to the place! Loved the ambiance, and the drinks were excellent as well. Food and service was great for my order. Definitely recommend a visit if you are in the vicinity!
Really cool layout and atmosphere. Service was not great. Probably wont be back.
Edit: came back the next day and it was much busier. We also enjoyed a few things off the menu. The lemon pepper dry ribs were great. Will definitely be back! Was a pretty quiet night(Thanksgiving) and we didnt eat but the beer was good and the service was great!
terrible menu
Fun night
Called Saturday to ensure the restaurant could accommodate our large group and provide high chair. Didnt hear back, presumed a walk in would be fine the next day for brunch. It took a while for us to get seated but we appreciate that the server tried to get to us as quickly as possible. No high chair- I wouldve loved to know this ahead of time with the courtesy of a call back. The rest of this post will be about the absolute unprofessional, RUDE behaviour of the manager on Sunday, October 15 2023. Her appalling attitude will be the reason I will never go back to Oak & Thorne and will let others know about the horrible management. Our server was kind and did her very best, while her lazy, aloof manger did the bare minimum to support. After waiting a significant amount of time, 2 of us asked a female employee (in blue jersey) if we could get the 2 missing cups of coffee as many in our party had been served drinks. We were told , Your server will get to you. I asked if the woman waiting tables upstairs was our server and was told yes. She clearly looked very busy, with no other servers in sight. I suggested that if said person in blue jersey could pour the coffee, I could bring it to the table. Again, in icy tone and a noticeable stare down Your server will get to you. What, may I ask, horribly rude employee were you actually SO busy with, that you couldnt help your poor staff member out with a coffee pour? Or do you consider that beneath you?! Turns out youre the manager?!! Are you new to management? Team players help out when members need support. I hope you learn that quickly or youll have a hard time keeping servers. Anyways, when someone in our party chose to give you feedback on her way out, I overheard your Thank you, have a nice day along with snickering you felt you neednt even hold in until she was out of your presence. SHOCKED youre in management. One of the coldest, RUDEST people Ive encountered in the service industry ever. Learn some humility and people skills and perhaps youll be able to keep customers longer. Also, I do hope your general manager has a word with you.
A bit disappointed..staff was at a minimum for a Sunday brunch..not alot people there yet took 40 min to get our food. Ordered a couple of Ceasars and asked for straws..told they ran out of..what...ordered sourdough toast..told they ran out of..OK...pull tab machine was broken ..again...floors were sticky...kinda one of those days I guess..positive side you can bring your kids in for lunch...anyways posting this cuz we told the waitress in a nice way to make her aware and she said she would tell the manager and she never did..just saying they can do better
Tyler rocks! Great service. Love the weekend breakfast.
Would rather die than go back. Not meant for girls. If a guy hits on you and you ignore him; you could be kicked out for punching him . No point in going here and supporting this business. Honestly I wish I could give them a zero. Kid-friendliness: Not child or women friendly
This was my first experience of clubbing here in Canada and I oughta say this place was nice. Security was tough but the ambience of this place was good. Must visit with friends.
I have visited this establishments a few times now through out the last couple years and I seem to always notice how rude the staff are, waitresses and bouncers. The bouncers do not know how to de escalate situations and I ve seen numerous times where they are physical with the patrons, most of the times it has been very uncalled for. This looks super unprofessional. The waitresses on the other hand, all seem to dread being there, ignore you, and seem to be only attentive if your not colored.
Food was great the server kept getting every thing wrong and was kinda to busy flirting
Drove by the other weekend and the place looked empty. It s no surprise, read the reviews.. People have been saying it for years the bouncers here are a problem. I mean look at the people often mention section for gods sake, the second most popular after pub is bouncers with 32 lol. Can t even remember how many times I ve seen them start fights and assault the customers. Apparantly the goal is to try and intimidate as many customers as possible. It s a shame really.. The venue itself is actually very nice and the menu is great. So much potential but ruined by a bunch of juice heads. Glad people finally started looking elsewhere. This place is a mess.
Staff was fantastic, beer was tasty and food was great, we all had a wonderful time.
We attended a charity benefit for Hugabull that was held in the bar. A free vegan burger was included in the ticket. Most of the people I went with ordered something different from the menu. I ate the burger and it was excellent. The appies that the others ordered were all really good. I d never been to Oak & Thorne before, but now that we live on the mainland, we ll definitely be back. Vegetarian options: Delicious veggie burger.
The food was good, as is the beer selection. Really enjoyed the games and entertainment.
I had a memorable experience at this bar, having visited only once. The standout element for me was the exceptional security. The gentleman at the door not only exuded a welcoming personality but also sported a captivating smile, making me appreciate the positive presence of such individuals in our community. Alongside this, I received excellent customer service inside and enjoyed a fantastic drink, making it an overall delightful visit. Highly recommend.
Good food. Not a huge menu, but decent options. Beef Dip was outstanding. Huge beef dip fan, this place is in the top 10% Food
This was our first time at this location, we came here because the variety in the online menu- the menu is actually quite limited and not as shown online, I asked the server if there was a dinner menu & she said no, that was it. We had no idea there was a breakfast brunch until we had already ordered as it is not on the menu provided and was not mentioned by our server. We tried the chipotle chicken corn chowder , Szechuan bowl and the Baja Fish tacos- all of which were five star, the fish tacos could use an aioli sauce is our only food preference as they were a bit dry but cooked perfectly. The atmosphere is of an old antique bookstore/coffee shop meets NY city graffiti- it was pleasing. There is a game room downstairs and they can handle reservations for larger groups but definitely need more staff to accommodate.
An awesome place with great food call my kind and friendly staff. I highly recommend this place for a nice night out
terribly
Nice place with food and drink, and music next to Sandman hotel
Save your money, stay home cook. Food was super lame. Pierogie pizza, chicken fingers, pretzel bites, wings, pasta, beef dip. The pasta was bland, giant chunks of bread piled on top, the beef dip was not sliced beef it was a low grade cut of roast, shredded like pork in between giant pieces of bread LOTSA bread. Salads were not so fresh looking. Service was great, atmosphere was not great kinda run down too. Oh well they need to stick to being a pub with a small menu.
My food didnt come
My food still ain t here dawg I ve been here for an hour and a half
Food was ready when I got thete as promised .the staff was friendly and helpful.
In town for a weekend and stayed at the local hotel. Tried the place out for a group dinner. Not really a great place for customer service... we assumed with the big tvs it was a sports bar but its not. Staff spend most of their time on their phones or eating, but not serving. Had to ask at the bar to get our drinks and then the waitress was terrible after that. Forgot about us a few times. Noticed when we left (Saturday night) there was 5 bouncers outside. So that lets you know something about the late night crowd expected. Bar Rescue take note!
Went in Sat night for appys and drinks. The young bartender (male with curly blonde hair if I remember correctly) was great. The nachos were great however for $21 the portion was really small. Def the smallest portion we have ever received for nachos in that price range. 4 starts for service and taste still :)
Screams average
Went here for Saturday morning brunch and to watch UFC. Amazing experience. Attentive service and very reasonable priced food and drink! Definitely recommend. Already made made another reservation. Will become a new staple.
Lots of fun games good food and great service. Wheelchair accessibility: Access was at grade the entrance appeared accessible. Food : 4/5 |
My first time there tonight. I found the bouncers to be a bit agressive, rude, and unprofessional. Which is not welcoming at all when you are just coming in. It would have felt way more welcoming if they were more friendly
Nice place to hang out and catch the game or the fights. Down side is it turns into night club later.
We had a gathering with coworkers here - they have a downstairs area with some arcade games, ping-pong, air hockey. It was a hit. The establishment was on the ball with the reservation, service was great, food (appies) was good, drinks were good. Everyone enjoyed.
Good food! Wishing they had the all-you-can-eat tacos again but of course with the economy they cannot..
Happy hour is great for drinks and appetizers. Can play games too downstairs or watch a game upstairs. Plenty of parking.
Went there a few weekends ago and the service was horrible. My wife and I went there for the first time in quite a while. We had been to the original location several times as we use to live right down the road and the service was always amazing. This time however we showed up, waited 10 mins just to talk to anyone. Then waited another 10 to get a table, not because it was so busy that there were no tables, there were plenty, but because the staff just played on their phones or ignored us. Finally got some service, they wanted to give us a table off to the side where there was absolutely no one. We asked if we have have a table upstairs, we were told there were none even though there were about 5. We took the table that was off by itself. It was still dirty and soaking wet. We waited another 10 minutes to order something and no one came. At that point we just got up and left. We use to love that place but safe to say we probally wont be back anytime soon if ever
Do NOT order anything from this establishment on Skip the dishes They NEVER deliver what is ordered and always add a substitute.... The also run ads on skip under Bun + Burger and a few others... Stay away from this place
Great place to eat, nachos were tremendous and so was the Caesar salad.
On Saturdays and Sundays they have a great breakfast special for 4.99! It can t be beat. You get eggs, sausage, bacon and hash browns. The service was good. The place is also great for any live sporting events.
Our experience was very disappointing. We had 2 tables reserved and our server couldnt keep up. They got our orders wrong, and changer our drinks to doubles without telling us. The floor is coming up in certain spots which is a safety concern.
Great place to watch the game and plenty of arcade games and other distractions to entertain the kids.
Servers really good as always
Whoever the bartender was on Wednesday April 10th at 11am...thanks for being awesome to my husband and I for our birthday! Update from 5 to 3 stars: its been probably a year since we last came but since then, idk if the cooks/chef changed or what. The food went from good to horrible. Chicken burger and fries: burger was bland, even with chipotle added. Fries were half cooked half not cooked through. Truffle tater tots: overly cheesy, buried in parmesan or whatever. Ginger beef bowl: tasted like someone just poured excessive salt into the beef. The server was wonderful even though she was also managing a really big group on the other side. I wouldnt order food here again unless you get new cooks.
Drinks and food good server was grumpy until Bill came.
Absolutely ridiculous volume for the foot ball game that 4 people were watching. Our waitress couldnt even hear us. Food was mediocre at best
Horrible place, said theyd hold onto my jacket since they wouldnt let me take it in, then threw it out and said wasnt [their] problem
Unfortunately a horrible experience. Came here for dinner with a small group and could not get timely service. Waited 45 minutes after placing the initial order and still did not get served. Decided to speak with the manager and she was not receptive to the criticism and we were told to be patient. I think waiting an hour when the establishment was less than half empty for service was reasonable however the manager didn t agree. She was unprofessional and most certainly not welcoming and unfortunately we decided to leave as we could not find a resolution. Perhaps with better management that are more receptive to customer service we would have had a better outcome.
many choices of beers on tap. food was excellent. staff was prompt and friendly. i would recommend going there to others and will return again when i am in the area.
