This is a message to the three male children who decided to have their first drink this evening. Your picture has been taken and the damage to the establishment didn’t go unnoticed. It would be in your best interest to cough up the cash to pay for the damages.

Fun bar! Came here on a quiet weekday and the owner/bartender had us try a bunch of different drinks based on his recommendation and was an enlightening experience

Decadent and perfectly sweet, Northern Bars Nanaimo Bars are a true indulgence! The rich chocolate topping, creamy custard layer, and crumbly base strike the perfect balance of flavors. A must-try Canadian classic! Great for gifting!!

Small but mighty! Live music, cozy, classic bar. Like dive feels, but better! This is my favorite place in Nanaimo! The workers are FANTASTIC. Jose works hard, is friendly, and makes great drinks. Sit at the bar, or at a table. Place fills up fast and can become a party. Other nights, quieter and very chill. I love the art hanging up that's local, and supporting local musicians. Thanks for everything!

Absolutely love these bars! We bought them on our honeymoon in Banff and came across them again in Vancouver for our one year anniversary. Definitely worth it!
