Armview Restaurant & Lounge

Breakfast here is excellent. Everything else is much worse. Plain and without much seasoning. I don't understand it.

I've been to Armview a few times since I live close by. To be fair, it deserves 3.5 stars. There's really nothing wrong with it. It just deserves 3.5! The inside is clean and tidy, but a bit worn out. The food is not bad, but it's just not that great nor exciting. The prices are a bit high for the quality and quantity you get.

Great spot, service was great today. Had the Big Arm with a coffee. Nice spot to watch the Northwest Arm. This spot never misses. The haddock burger and the fish cakes are other favourites of mine.

This is a cute retro dinner with real milkshakes and rootbeer floats. Went on Thanksgiving Monday and service was still fantastic food came quickly and waitresses were lovley.

Parking is alittle difficult if you don't mind walking afew minutes I suggest parking near Walmart and walking down.

Very comfortable spot with friendly staff. It's a great regular spot for anyone that lives nearby, and the lawn seating during the summer is really nice and relaxing.

We used to visit Armview bi-weekly but after our most recent visits, we’ve opted to dine elsewhere. Last weekend, we decided to give it another shot and were reminded of why we stopped going. We arrived around 2pm after running a half marathon. We wanted to treat ourselves to brunch and a drink rather than cook and quite honestly, I wish I had stayed home. We sat on the patio and were approached by a server whose attitude made it seem as if she didn’t want to be there. We asked if they were still serving brunch and she firmly said no and seemed irritated that we asked. My partner reminded me that there was one all day breakfast meal so we opted to order this. I don’t eat meat so I asked if I could have an extra egg and green salad rather than the bacon, ham, and sausage. The server again, seemed irritated that I was asking for a substitution. She rolled her eyes at me and said I don’t think they can do an extra egg but maybe a salad instead. This seemed strange to me as the cost of 6 pieces of meat hardly equates to a handful of spring mix and one egg… I asked her I didn’t eat meat and to see what she could do. She said “fine” and took my partners order. He asked for the same meal but instead of ham, if he could have an additional piece of bacon and sausage as he doesn’t eat ham, again the server was irritated with us and made us feel like we were annoying her just by being there. It was extremely uncomfortable so we decided to move inside with the hope that we’d have another server. Once we went inside, we were approached by a different person who said it was no problem to sit inside. Then, our original server from outside came over and slammed water down on the table. My partner apologized for moving and said it was too hot outside and before he could finish his sentence, the server said “no problem” and was walking away. We were one of 7 tables in the whole restaurant but felt as if we were a bothersome to her. She brought our drinks over (a coffee and a caesar cocktail) and again, slammed them down on our table. We were perturbed at this point and quite upset with the way we were being treated. About 15 minutes later, she came over with our food. My meal had a Caesar salad on it with bacon bits as the salad side. Being that told her I didn’t eat meat, I would’ve assumed she would know to not give me a salad with meat on it. I have also never seen a breakfast come with a Caesar salad. It’s typically a mixed green or green salad — again, this was strange. I mentioned it to the server and she rudely said, “um, you didn’t ask for no bacon bits.” I told her I would’ve assumed she would’ve known this given my food order and mentioned that I would’ve preferred a green salad. She laughed and said, “I thought you wanted a Caesar salad.” I said, “I didn’t ask for A Caesar salad, I asked for a green salad.” She rolled her eyes and picked up my plate and walked away. 10 minutes later, my plate was dropped off again. The eggs and hashbrowns were reused from the first plate and were cold and there was a green salad on my plate. As I was eating the cold eggs, I noticed bacon bits in them and that my toast had no butter. The manager came over to ask how everything was. At this point, I told him that we were shocked by the service and that my eggs had bacon bits in them when I don’t eat meat. I also asked for butter and hot sauce at this point since this was as the first time my second meal was checked in 10 minutes. My partner also had issues with his meal and was only able to mention it at this point. He ordered over easy eggs which arrived hard and he did not receive the extra sausage or bacon; they merely took the ham off of his meal. After mentioning all of this to the manager, we were told that our drinks would be taken off the bill. While this was a nice gesture, the proper solution would have been to take care of the meals we had numerous issues with. When going out and paying for your meal, you’d assume that your order will arrive how you’ve asked for it. We won’t be back to Armview after this experience.

Food might be hit or miss, this last time I ordered the steak and arugula salad. It was salty as heck, meat was tender, with a garnish of arugula with too much dressing and cheese. Had to chug my drink to eat that salty mess.

I usually go for a cocktail/beer, wrap or burger and I always get the coconut cream pie. Servers are always friendly, food is fast. I like looking at the rotary. One day I’ll sit on the grassy area and get an ice cream.

Just stay away from steak and arugula salad
