Had an awesome visit. The wings were fresh and delicious, it was a nice welcoming atmosphere but Tracy as our server was tremendous. So attentive, and so engaging. I cross my fingers I get her as a bartender/server next time I come in!

We had a great experience at this location. Our server was absolutely amazing and I wish I could find my receipt that showed her name. She was very informative on all of our food and drink selections.
We had the pizza selection, the table was full of pizza and it was the best choice. Wildfire and great crust with a good amount of toppings. You could easily share the pizza with a friend or eat it yourself. We did decide to have dessert as it was house made and not brought in by bulk. Cheese cake, wow! Simply devine. I'm allergic to the topping it came with and the chef was kind enough to make me a topping I could eat, that's above and beyond service. I highly recommend the pizza and cheese cake.
Great selection of beer, there is something for all tastes. Pop and cocktails available along with mocktails.
It has a really comfortable atmosphere but very Bar like. there is a patio but we arrived in a rain filled night so had to sit inside. It's clean and inviting.
Great location in new Westminster, if you're taking the SkyTrain it's right next to a station, Columbia I believe. If you're driving there is some parking out front. If not there is public pay parking a few blocks away.

Last night, we reserved a table for 16 people (family and friends for the family wedding this weekend). We were outside on the patio that was set up for us when we arrived. Everything about the service and food and atmosphere was excellent. Tracy and her colleagues were attentive and treated our bride and groom so well!
The wood fired pizzas were cooked to perfection, the beer was flowing and the cocktails were so yum. This place was a great hit with our UK and Australian folks.
Tracy, your service, attention to detail and cheery smile was the highlight of our evening! You must have been so tired after the young ones left! Thank you so much!

I had never been to tap house before so I was looking forward to trying a burger from here. I wanted and waited to be seated. The server directed me to the patio as that's where I asked to sit. I was not the only one out there. I sat down and waited 15 mins before leaving. At the time of my leaving, I still had no menu, water or a greeting from any staff other than the girl who sat me.

Stopped by on a calm Sunday and was thoroughly impressed. More of a local pub but the service was amazing. Our server, Lexi, was attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere was chill. Never felt out of place. Had two pints and some chips and salsa. Loved the convenience of it, just steps away from Columbia Skytrain station. Overall very happy with the experience. Will probably go back soon.

Tried this place for the first time today and was beyond disappointed. The food was not at ALL as advertised. I ordered the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, which was advertised to come with crispy buttermilk fried chicken, pickles, onions, truffle aioli, and iceberg lettuce.

What I received was a wet, soggy chicken breast on a wet, soggy bun. There was coleslaw/carrots instead of lettuce, there were no pickles on my sandwich, which is one of the best parts of a chicken sandwich. There were a few tiny chunks of diced onion in the mix with the coleslaw. And there was no truffle mayo either. The fries were also somehow completely wet and soggy.

I paid over $25.00 for slop and unfortunately did not get refunded. I do not recommend this restaurant.

A week ago I was part of a group of 30 and we had a great time partying in the back patio area. The weather cooperated and the staff reserved the upper patio area for us. We had a smaller menu to choose from but there was still a lot of choice. I enjoyed the Smash Burger and everyone seemed to enjoy their food as well. Good beer and reasonable prices. No complaints from anyone. We had excellent service as well. The pub has a compfortable atmosphere.

Vegetarian options: Could be a few more. If one orders without the bacon, there are more options.
