I love this place, and I feel they do a better job than anyone else with the brunch menu they offer. I have two beefs though, and for as small as they may seem, I think it makes the difference between good places and GREAT places.
1. The food and presentation is fantastic, but I need to ask…why am I eating food off of plastic plates? Everything else is so perfect, why a plastic plate? Do you have any idea how terrible it sounds to hear the person a table over cutting on a plastic plate? I think it detracts from your amazing food.
2. I love ordering an Americano at Pipers. The blood orange mug and saucer, cream and sugar on the side, and then the amazing bold flavour of the coffee! It’s amazing! But then I get a wooden stir stick instead of a spoon. Why? You’ve spent $5K on the machine, thought went into the mugs and how the coffee is to be presented. Why a wooden stir stick instead of a proper spoon?

I’ll be back! I’m not suggesting for one second I won’t be. These two things however are distracting from a damn near perfect dining experience. I know…first world problems!

All in all a solid 4/5. Would give a bit more, if the amount of food would be more :). Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would come back again

We had a late lunch. The menu is very interesting and diverse (fusion). She had won ton soup and I had cream o mushroom w truffle oil. The calamari was properly cooked with a very light hand, melt-in-your-mouth as it should be.

Terribly slow service…. More than a half hour wait for an appetizer…. Better to swing over to the long wood brew pub or cactus club, better food and better service.
I won’t be back

First visit after the old one shut down. Waited 15 minutes for someone to come offer me a drink. Left without being served anything.

4 servers ignored me completely and were more interested in talking to each other at the bar while doing nothing productive.
It was at 4 pm amd there were 3 tables occupied for a total of 10 people inside and out.

I used to be a regular here before new ownership. Won't return

As others mentioned, it's a nice space and good service.

I had the Gangnam Spice Stack which tasted pretty good but the chicken size was huge and difficult to handle. Also way too much sauce, it was dripping everywhere and I ended up eating the burger with a knife and fork. Fries were a little undercooked in my opinion.

Good time other than that tough would go again.

Had the British Columbia sandwich. Had kiwi sauce on it. Why I don’t know it’s not British Columbian . 9$ for for fries! Ridiculous

We visited Pipers Pub today and had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the service was excellent. The staff were very friendly and attentive, which made the visit pleasant.

Unfortunately, there were a few issues. The portion sizes were quite disappointing for the price, and smaller than we had expected. Our table was also quite wobbly, which made eating a bit uncomfortable.

Overall, a decent visit, but with room for improvement. The experience would have been much better with slightly larger portions and a more stable table.

Parking is great.

Very cool menu, feels like a 4 star chef variety that you'd find at an upscale hotel. Items are still down to earth enough for the almost red neck. Prices are really reasonable as well. The drink and coffee menu are extensive as well. Absolutely worth the visit!!
