“We were just down in CR for medical (from Port Hardy) and finally decided to stop in after hearing how amazing this place is from friends. Our server was Anna and she was absolutely incredible! We both ordered a clubhouse, my husband on the sourdough she recommended and myself on marble rye as that is my fav. He has worked in restaurants for 37 years and said this was probably the best clubhouse he had ever had. Being in the industry we were (non creepily!!!) watching the staff, every one of them were not only keeping busy the entire time, helping each other out, they all looked like they were having FUN. We will absolutely be back when we are down next! Keep up the amazing work and thank you Anna for being so friendly, allowing space for conversation while still ensuring you are taking care of all your guests. 😊”

“The Fork and Arrow is a must go to. We stopped in for lunch and it was great! The service was quick and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the Deadly Aunty Burger which is a loaded patty on bannock. The bannock was fantastic. My husband had the classic breakfast which is exactly what it was - eggs (he likes them done hard), choice of meat, hashbrowns and toast. We have had their fish and chips before and, again, fabulous food. They have fish and chips every Monday after 4:30pm. We know what we will be eating on Mondays!!”

Coffee Shops • $
“*DID YOU KNOW: all of their croissants are baked in a Nordic oven which, is why they’re slightly darker and more crunchy. Aaaand, did you know that their pastries are all true sourdough which has been fermented for four days before they develop the pastries?🥐 ☕️ They don’t offer syrup, because they’re Nordic coffee shop not American style. This place is unique. Honestly, I had no idea and, this just makes us place even more special!”

“Ordered the fish and chips and forgot to request the gluten free option!! Asked the server about my mistake and they offered to make me a gluten free one without extra charge even though it was my fault. VERY kind staff, good food, will likely come again !”
Japanese • $$
“It was a walking distance from our hotel, so we decided to give them a try. We ordered their Tray B and the vegies tempura.
The tempura was good, but a bit on the greasy side (in comparison to tempura in Japan). The sushi has a good balance of texture, temperature and subtle umami. Tray B portion was definitely more than enough for 2 people. It can easily serve 3 people.
We'd come back if we're in the area again.”

Who knew warmed olives infused in herbs and fresh grated lemon could taste so 😋 yummy!
The artichoke and dried tomato pasta is also vegan and full of flavour. I also had panecotta fresh strawberry and pistachio, smooth creaminess! Thank you from the bottom of my tummy💕”

Thai • $$
“This intimate little restaurant was a real find 🥰on my way through Campbell River! The food was great and service attentive, friendly but unobtrusive. I have had Thai food in other places in Canada and other countries and these dishes were delicious and authentic. I had the Thai Papaya Salad which came with a nice amount of the house dressing, as well as the Kristy Special with tofu as my protein selection. Being vegetarian, it was great that I could select the protein for any dish; that is so rare! Usually I am stuck with one or two options, but here I could paid tofu with most of the offerings. I had also asked for medium spice and it didn't disappoint 😅. The vegetables were generous and were not overcooked, and came with a generous helping of rice noodles and the tofu. And the portions for both were large enough that I saved a portion to have another day. Even though the place was at capacity, service was efficient, friendly and timely. If you love Thai food, I definitely highly recommend this place in Campbell River! 😋🇹🇭”

Since I was pregnant with my 3rd baby I was regularly getting the meatball sub. I have seen Jay many times through out that time and every time I see him he is super friendly with a bright smile on his face. He has the best customer service I’ve seen in years, I highly recommend someone give this guy a raise or promotion. He has been a rockstar through every order I’ve had, he is efficient and nice. I would recommend this store to anyone.”
