The Library Square Pub - Vancouver, British Columbia

La bibliothèque est incroyable. Il y a 9 étages, c’est immense! N’ayez pas peur, il y a 2 ascenseurs et des escaliers roulants. Chaque étage a une section différente. Il y a plusieurs bureaux et fauteuils pour étudier et lire. Il y a un coin dedié pour la lecture au 9e étage. Il n’y a pas que des livres en anglais, il y a du français, chinois, turc, ect. La section enfant est dans le sous-sol si vous le chercher. Il y a une belle terasse au 9e étage. Tout est très bien indiqué.

Thumbs up on their lobster and steak special. The steak was good for the price point. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Manager is attentive.

Great selection of cocktails and all prices reasonable.

It a pub ambience so let's say average.

Recommend for some good pub food and drinks.

We tried their lobster and steak lunch menu which was a great price as advertised. It didn't disappoint, the quality was worth what you pay for. It wasn't busy on a weekend for lunch, even with their lobster deal, no reservation necessary, they are accommodating for larger groups. The service was slow though maybe not enough servers, it took a while for our food as a big group to sit down, order, then get the bill. They had cute bibs for lobster if you choose to wear.

The steak was a little dry but the lobster was good. The owner or manager was kind and caring. Good price 🙂(it was $20).

First time there with a group of friends, and it seemed alright based on the atmosphere and vibe. I had asked our server, who was friendly, which food in the menu she would recommend to us as the menu was quite overwhelming. She had recommended me the Cajun chicken burger so I ordered that with a side of the flatbread pizza. The flatbread came first, which was decent enough, and soon after the Cajun chicken burger came. My boyfriend and I were splitting the food, so he sliced the burger in half, only to realize the chicken was raw. At this point, I had taken a bite of the burger as I was hungry. We asked all of our friends at the table to confirm if it was raw or not as we weren’t completely sure due to the fact that the pub lights were extremely dim and dark. We complained to our server, who then apologized and told us that the kitchen would make a new burger for us. 10 minutes later, the new burger came out, and it had already been sliced in half, as if it was the same burger that we had initially received. We looked at the chicken again to make sure it was cooked this time, and sure enough, it was identical to the first burger. We complained again, and this time we were a bit frustrated at the lack of care the kitchen had on the food that they were serving to the customers. We wanted our portion of the bill covered, as it was unacceptable to receive not one, but TWO RAW burgers. They didn’t want to cover the whole thing, but we fought for it as this was not okay. As someone who has had food poisoning from raw chicken, this is very serious issue and should be dealt correctly. Eventually the manager came along, and she told us that our bills were covered but never apologized and stormed off once she finished what she had to say. For someone who is the manager, we expect more sincerity towards the customer base. I understand that these things happen, but how the manager dealt with it was rude and frankly unacceptable, so we will not be returning back to this place.

We arrived before a concert and thought one hour would be enough time to chow down on burgers & beer. Well it ended up 1.5hrs, the 4 of us order two entrees and a drink each. The dirty table needed to be scrubbed after we already sat down.
The waitress was nice but it took 30 mins to get our ordered first drinks. A plate of tacos & a burger with fries shouldn't take one hour to get to our table. It wasn't too busy; the atmosphere was nice, lots of entertainment options and there are televisions everywhere broadcasting sports.
But the speed of the service was so impactful that a return visit is only motivated by the great food prices & the many entertainment options.
