Review Flying Canoe West Coast Pub - Courtenay

Been here a couple times for the music trivia on Wednesday night. Very cool! The venue is very nice and there's lots of TVs, including a very large projector screen for watching the game. Nice selection of beer on tap. Unfortunately, both times I've gone, I've gotten my first beer quickly, and then when that was dry waited for about 10 minutes for wait staff to ask if I wanted another. With the amount of wait staff working, you'd think that would not be a problem. Possibly could have been due to our waitress sitting and socializing with another guest. Some of the waitresses bust their arse, but I've been less than impressed twice in a row. I wonder if the training or management is a little lacking? Might try again, but 3 strikes you're out.

Always a good time at the Canoe. Beer selection is generally very good, occasionally they do run low on the popular selections. The food is also quite good. The staff always come to take orders promptly and are pleasant and nice to talk to, they also return regularly to ensure you don't go thirsty! The restaurant is always nice and clean. Also family friendly around meal times.

We came here on a Sunday night for dinner when we were visiting Courtenay. From the outside it looked like a regular pub, but once we got inside the layout and decor was quite impressive. The food we ordered was very good - as was the service. I was VERY impressed with the selection of craft beers - whoever is in charge of this has obviously done their homework and it shows -they had a better variety and selection of craft beers than a lot of 'tap houses' that I have been to. To top it off, it was also karaoke night and that was a blast to sit back and watch the show. Next time we are in Courtenay we are definitely coming back here.

This is a great stop for enjoying a quick bite and a good brew. The service is excellent and so is the food, quality and presentation, I give it a ten!!

The food is absolutely exceptional and the prices are so fair for the portions! I order from them regularly and have never been dissapointed. Their hot spinach dip is phenomenal!!

You MUST get yourself here and have a pizza! On my first visit I had salmon which was a 4 stars experience. On the second visit, pizza was fantastic and over 5 stars!

Friendly staff but unfortunately its fair to say my order was less than average. Overcooked proteins and nasty smelling colesalaw. They'll find it hard to compete with the new KFC across the road if that continues.

Not much here anymore. Just staying alive. I unwisely ordered the butter chicken - Indian food at a pub- what was I thinking. Terrible preparation but also virtually no chicken in the dish. Should be taken off the menu.
