★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The patio is great for people watching on a sunny day. Neighbourhood pub with a variety of customers gay and straight. Food is better than average, lunch has 5 items for $8 each, including a half club sandwich with real chicken and bacon with choice of side. Brunch daily 11-2 prices around $11-15. Daily specials including soup and drink specials. Service is friendly and relaxed without being pretentious. Pool table and a bit cruisy after 9 pm.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place was amazing! The vibe was so friendly and welcoming, the drink prices were super decent, and the manager/server T was so funny and amazing; we visited twice on our 4 night visit to Van. Would recommend if you're looking for a good place to sit and chill or play some pool on a weekend :)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Horrible place. We came on a busy Friday night so a wait is to be expected but this night was intolerable. First our server brought me a Heineken when I clearly ordered a Corona. Then we waited nearly an hour for our plate of nachos which never materialized. Several other tables got their orders first while we were totally ignored. They didn't even check in on whether we needed anything and we had to flag a server down to enquier. He gave some nebulous, noncommittal reason while motioning to the kitchen. No real explanation was given. We called him a second time and he offered us free sodas or something, but still no tangible explanation for why a bar could not whip together a plate of nachos, let alone our main courses. Several minutes passed to no avail and we could no longer wait. We left, hungry, disappointed, thirsty and with a dogged determination to never set foot in this place again.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Best poutine I've ever had. I hope it wasn't a fluke... I mean maybe it was, but it was so perfect. Crispy, flavorful fries, great gravy, half melted cheese curds and a large portion ?
Staff were also very friendly. Great place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We initially came here because Granville Brewery was celebrating the release of their new Sour Peach beer and we had two complimentary drinks. Ended up eating lunch here and the food is absolutely amazing. The philly dip already has so much succulent gravy that you don’t even feel the need to dip. If you do dip, you get this incredible flavorful bite. We were recommended to get the Cajun Chicken Clubhouse with only two slices of bread and that was such a great idea. The sandwich tastes like it’s loaded with ingredients. The soup of the day was tomato soup and it had such a nice consistency and was so fresh. I’m not a big drinker of beer but I was actually quite impressed with the peach sour. It had a nice flavor to it that makes it not as bitter as other beer. Would definitely recommend coming here. We had to wait about 15 min for a table because it’s patio dining only right now but the wait is totally worth it. The service is also top notch.
Edit: We were recommended to get the dessert which I think was a cherry cheesecake with chocolate drizzle. It was so good! It’s not a heavy like New York Cheesecake. It s a soft, light cheesecake with what tasted like an Oreo crust. It was so good! And even though we were pretty full, it is actually a nice finisher to the meal. We split it between two people. The desserts rotate so it isn’t on the menu.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was in the neighborhood with my sister. She wanted to sit and visit and grab a drink and food. We sat down, no one served us for 10-12 mins. I went to the bar, bartender got us drinks. Still no service after being there for an hour. My sister left and I ended up going to the bar to pay. Bartender asked if we received service. I said not at all, with 3 servers walking by us all the time. Not even a gesture of hospitality, they didn't want to come near us.
Bartender wrote off our bill and apologized- says he will talk to the 3 servers. But offences and hospitality and inclusion are not welcomed, especially if you are different in race, a non-white. Clearly there are divisions. Will think twice of telling others of going to Fountainhead, especially if you don't want to be judged for who you are.
Didn't even get to eat the food to know if it's worth the cuisine.
Sad for not being accepted for who I am now. Racism is real.
