Best Pub in Canada

t	taylor grover on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stopped in here for a night of dancing and drinks with friends. We were immediately rudely greeted by the rude owner name Tammy who was very unwelcoming and unpleasant to do deal with. We stayed for a while to enjoy the live music and one of her customers was seen going through our jackets and bags and we had confronted her and asked to leave our table politely. The drunk, incoherent girl refused to leave and apparently was a previously known problem at their sad excuse for an establishment. She then bit one of our friends and punched her in the face. Tammy then proceeded to somehow favour the woman who physically assaulted our friend and was also trying to steal from us. She clearly favours the local drunk apparently as she obviously helps pay the overhead for whistle stop. Cleaning the musky piss smell isn’t a priority for them apparently as well. This place is ran under terrible ownership and we’ll never be back.

M	Moira Coward on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Saturday night steak and prawns special.. absolutely amazing and can't beat the price. Awesome service as well!!
K	Kenny on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stopped in while stranded in Courtenay due to weather. While I can safely say that was lot the best steak I have ever had(seasoning goes a long way), the over all experience of the meal, drinks, staff and atmosphere was exactly what I like. Proper neighbourhood pub. Loved it. And loved my bill, haven’t had a reasonable night like that in over a decade. And, it’s not another chain ?‍♂️. Don’t sleep on this place, worth a visit if you enjoy a neighbourhood pub. Next time the weather pins me in town, I know where I’m going.
E	Elvis Starburst on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I think their food used to be good at some point, but somewhere along the line during Covid it got pretty awful. Our burgers were soaking the buns in grease (And the patties clearly weren't made themselves given the texture, pretty sure they get them from Costco or somewhere similar), bacon wasn't crisp, the fries were soft... The place was filthy as well. Guess since they're making a new building they've stopped caring about the upkeep. At least the server was nice, but that's about the only thing they had going for them today. Not interested in returning, especially for the price they ask for the quality you get
J	Johnathan Percy on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ As someone who was raised in the Valley, I have a soft spot for any pub or club that has stood the test of time. Almost 40 years ago my friends and I used to frequent the Whistle Stop - a lot of fun memories were had. Now in my 50's, my wife and I make sure to have lunch at the Stop whenever we are back in town - and I am never disappointed. Great food, great prices and always a friendly and attentive staff. Kudos to the ownership and management group for continuing the legacy of this C.V. neighborhood pub from what I remember long ago...
L	Linda Macoomb on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I had read a wide variety of reviews about this place but we wanted to give it a try to see for ourselves. It's a standard pub, maybe a little rough but the food was great. Service was good and we will definitely be back. If you're looking for upscale, this won't be for you but if you're like my BF and looking for a working man's pub give it a try. Try the oven baked creamy seafood lasagna....we shared it between us and highly recommend.
A	Allen Castromayor on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ When I first moved to the Comox Valley, one of the things that disappointed me the most was the lack of no nonsense pubs that had "wing Wednesday". IMO, pubs are incomplete if they 1) don't have daily specials, and 2) sell chicken wings. Thankfully, the Whistle Stop pub has both of these. I am vehemently opposed to paying full price for chicken wings. However, I will always prefer to go to a bar/pub who offers "wing nights", or other specials to give them my business and will try the rest of the menu. The Whistle Stop is not the fanciest pub in the valley, but that's part of the charm of this place. Good food, great service, and especially good food and drink specials. Would recommend.
