Delicious tapas, friendly service, and fun vibe. Enjoyed sitting at the bar without a reservation in shoulder season and it was perfect! Highly recommend!

We had such a wonderful experience at Bar Oso! Chef Andrés prepared an amazing paella full of authentic Spanish flavors — absolutely delicious. The cocktails by bartender Juan were fantastic, and the appetizers from José Luis were also outstanding. Everyone was so warm and friendly, which made the whole evening even better. A true taste of Spain in Whistler!

The food and the space are both incredible. My second home is Madrid, and the cured meats are spot on. All of the food is delicious, the service is beyond friendly. Great experience, highly recommend. ++ you didn’t ask but the playlist is absolute 🔥🎶

We were so surprised and delighted to stumble upon this hidden gem in Whistler Village! The vibe is absolutely immaculate — it really reminded me of the bustling nightlife back in Toronto, which is exactly what I was looking for. I personally work in the hospitality industry and have been to countless bars, so I did my research beforehand by checking out their website, reading about the chef, and scrolling through their Instagram. It all looked promising, but the real experience exceeded my expectations.
We were seated right at the bar, which was perfect since we got to watch the kitchen prepare dishes and the bartenders craft drinks — such a fun and lively atmosphere. The energy was busy and buzzing, making it ideal for a night out. That said, if you’re looking for something quiet, intimate, or family-friendly, this may not be the right spot.
For tapas, I found the portions and quality really fair for the price. The flavors honestly shocked me in the best way, and I’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes. We also tried a couple of cocktails — although our server seemed a bit unsure when recommending one (I asked for something fruity and light but got the opposite), everything else about the service and night was wonderful.
The highlight for me was seeing how well the whole team worked together — you could feel the camaraderie and passion behind the bar and kitchen. That, combined with the food and vibe, made for such a memorable night. Highly recommend if you’re after a vibrant, city-style experience in Whistler!

Excellent bar menu, especially the wine by the glass list. Great vibe - a bit loud for the middle aged crowd but skilled bartenders and excellent product (eg local gin)

We were able to waltz in on a Friday at 7pm. Maybe because we were a table of 2. Cocktails were delicious and so were the tapas.
Worth a try but it's not a cheap place.

This is our favorite spot! 😍 Just a beautiful establishment, exceptionally curated staff that go well-beyond for their customers. The salted cod melted in my mouth, the shrimp were divine. Our drinks were VERY good, and the ambiance and company were absolutely perfect. We will definitely be coming back 💖💖💖
