We went here 3 times in 2 days and cannot rave enough about how incredible it was. A must do for islanders and those passsing by.
J	Jackie Moore on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A good local place. The bartender was so nice, and really warm and welcoming. One of the locals told is a story about the time that John Travolta came to Nanaimo and was run out of town by locals.
J	Jonas Shandel on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ After having played drums in two of the bands, I’m sipping a beer post show quite enjoying myself: door girl asks me to pay cover for the Beatles tribute act if I wanted to stay in the bar. Never seen this type of treatment of musicians in 15 years of touring experience. I believe the owner should be ashamed of herself. She screamed us out of the bar after I questioned this idiotic practice. There should be little tolerance for people who treat musicians poorly because a lot of hard work goes into presenting a set of original music.
R	Roger Cusson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great place to have a cocktail after a day at work or otherwise. I had a Nanaimo Bar Martini.. Awesome!
D	Dennis Gane on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had a lovely visit to the bar. Jason the bar tender was an exceptional host. He was telling us about the owner Sonia, who according to him is an awesome person who tends bar on the weekends and everyone in the community loves her. Sorry we missed you Sonia. As we were drinking our beer, we enjoyed the background music which was upbeat. Overall a positive experience, alas we won't be in town when a band is playing which is our misfortune. I think we would have enjoyed our visit even more. Check it out of you are in the vicinity.
