Best Irish pub in Canada

J	Jenn Clements on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went for Wednesday night trivia, which was lots of fun! Had an overall good experience until it came time to pay for our bills. Our server had gone home for the evening so the manager was cashing us out. He brought over the wrong bills, overcharging us by MANY drinks. We politely brought this up to him and he got heated, very quickly. Started accusing us of not wanting to pay our bills, that we were too drunk to know how many drinks we had, and was pushing his iPad/card machine in front of us. I have never been treated so poorly by a bar, let alone the manager. He ended up getting so angry he stormed off and told us to leave and never come back. Don't worry, we wont be! Would not recommend to anyone.

P	Paul Dante on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is your typical Vancouver Irish pub. The decor is pretty much what you'd expect with wood paneling and all. I was there on a Saturday evening, so the place was quite crowded and there was a live 1-man band. The musician was decent, but between him and the crowd it was very loud. Loud to the extent that my ears hurt and my throat was raw from having to yell. Pretty good beer selection and I appreciated that the food menu had things like a Full Irish Breakfast. As for the quality of the food, the fish and chips were pretty good, but the cottage pie was not. Friends who ordered the cottage pie wondered if it had been microwaved, which is not a good sign. The tater tot nachos were ok, but arrived after the mains, which was weird.
H	Harry on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not bad, good place for a fun evening as they are one of the few places in town that actually create a lively evening atmosphere with live music, bar service and standing up between tables. Food is also okay, poutine with beans is decent, although had another dish that was pretty average (think it was the veggie pie). Drinks seem to be on the expensive side which is strange given the type of place. Guinness for example seems to be the most expensive I've seen it across the whole city, over $10 a pint. They also do quiz nights on Wednesday although can be a bit hard to hear questions/answers
A	Amanda R-F on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a great Irish Pub! Food was great, drinks were on point, and the servers were kind and quick. The only thing that would have made this perfect would be if they hadn't run out of dry cider for crown floats! Might be time to bring one more on board!
J	John Busswood on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great venue but until they embrace the full concept of Happy Hour, we will continue to take our business to all the near by pubs, bars, and restaurants in the area. I hope they see the wisdom of that soon or they may be the next failure and that would be ? tragic!
G	Gurv on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Visited Johnnie Fox’s last night for dinner and drinks with some friends, and was really disappointed with the food and some of the servers. I ordered the salt and malt vinegar wings, but what I got were plain breaded wings. Dips were meh too. The curry cheese chips were terrible!!!! The bar staff know how to pour a good pint of Guinness though, which is why they didn’t get 1 star. If you’re going to charge such high prices for food, you need to make it good! Service wasn’t great either; some staff were nice but others were just downright rude. Darcy is probably the worst server I’ve ever dealt with. Suffice it to say, we will be sticking to Donnellan’s and Shamrock Alley in the future.
m	melon pinku on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Just finished eating here it was pretty good but very pricey like much more than I would normally pay and is why I feel the food wasn't really worth it. We had the grilled cheese and tomato soup, the prime rib Yorkies, and the bison blue cheese burger. The Yorkie were pretty authentic tasting definitely going along with the Irish theme and I thought they were well made the horse radish was really good too. The blue cheese burger was big and filling and pretty tasty and came with a side sauce that really highlighted the meal it was so tasty I was dipping my grilled cheese in it the whole time. As for the grilled cheese and tomato soup it was quite bland for my taste. I really needed that sauce that came with the burger as the tomato soup just didn't have enough for me but it was warm and filling and tasted like they used fresh tomatoes in it and you could tell it was made here it was nice I think if it came with a dipping sauce that would really complete it as a meal for people who like extra flavor. The service was a little slow though waiter wasn't really around even though there wasn't many people there. That's why I gave a 3.
