Good service excellent patio great beer perfect place for lunch or dinner or noon beers
We were seated on the patio when seagulls pooped on us during our meal. Things like this can happen outdoors, but what shocked us was the staff’s complete lack of response — no apology, no offer to replace our food, and no gesture of goodwill. We hadn’t even finished eating, yet we were left to deal with it ourselves. Extremely disappointing experience and not a place I’d return to.
Great busy pub!
Great staff, wonderful margheritas...

Flower filled patio. Server girls were whirling dirvishes on a busy Fri summer afternoon. Didn't try food but looked appealing.
Pro tip: Sit outside among the array of flowers, even if there's a wait. Do it and soak in the city.

So beautiful with all the flowers. Everyone is so kind. Drinks are delicious. Patio is a bit tight so those with mobility issues may find it difficult to navigate

Food and table service is great, but the blonde hostess with short hair was so rude and condescending.
We got seated on the patio, and then proceeded to be ignored for an unbearable amount of time, so we left. Too bad. It would be beneficial for the staff to communicate when a table gets sat. You don't even have to take our order right away if it's that busy, just acknowledge our existence.
Hubby and I came in for an early dinner late lunch sitch and left SO satisfied! Hubs ordered a smash burger and I ordered the summer salad. Bother were freaking fantastic!! Each enjoyed a couple happy hour beers while being given top notch friendly service from a lovely human of a lady! Great vibes, right downtown Victoria can even see the water from the restaurant.
Don’t think about it, just go.

Remember that video where the drunk owner of this place stage dives off the bar and no one catches him? Anyway, this place blows.
It features a big Victoria PD neon sign for the bootlicker crowd, and big Barstool Sports logo too, so cover your drinks. If there's a MAGA bar in Victoria, this is probably it. No wonder Aaron Gunn drinks here.
The best thing I can say about the food is that--by the time someone took our order and the burgers EVENTUALLY arrived--we ate it. Not cold, definitely not hot.
Enjoyed thoroughly. Great service. Nice patio! Lots of pretty hanging baskets

I recently visited this place with a friend, and even though we only ordered dessert, the service was absolutely wonderful. Our server, , was so kind and made us feel completely welcome. Sometimes you worry about ordering just a little, but she never made us feel that way—just the opposite. Her warmth and hospitality really stood out.
