Taylor, Khloe and Cass, this trio made it another wonderful visit. I was disappointed at first that we got seated at the bar, yes no resos, when there appeared to be tables available! But, that disappointment quickly changed with the warm welcome and comments about our last visit. The bar seating ended up being what we needed. We got to expand on what we ordered and sample other dishes from the menu, including a new addition. Food received a 4 star only because we sampled a new item in the menu that was extremely undercooked but the team quickly took the time to resolve the issue and they took it as a teaching opportunity for the kitchen. Great care with not only getting it right for us but also for future guests. A big thank you to Taylor, Khloe and Cass for a great evening, the chatter, service and attention made it a fun and delicious evening. People really do make the place.

We had such a great experience at this pub! The food really stood out — creative, interesting, and definitely something different from what you usually get at other pubs. You can tell they put thought into their menu. The burger was a highlight for us. It comes with two patties, which made them extra satisfying, juicy, and honestly so delicious. What made the visit even better was the service. Our server (I believe her name was Ella) was absolutely amazing. She really made us feel welcome and added to the whole vibe of the place. Huge thanks for that, we’ll definitely be back!

We came for brunch and I ordered the steak and potatoes. I asked for medium rare and it came out over cooked to my liking. We mentioned it to the server and she was so sweet and ordered me a new one. It took a lot longer than the manager said and she felt so bad she let us pick a dessert on the house. We got the Oreo mousse cup and it was amazing. The steak came out perfect the second time around and I loved it. My husband got the enchilada dish and was very flavourful. Everything we ordered was delicious and gobbled up. When we got the bill, they took my meal off the bill which was amazing and unexpected. They have went above and beyond with the service which made us want to come back even more. The place has such a great vibe for hanging out.

We’ve been to the LOCAL in Gastown and love its location, so we were not expecting this one in the River District to be as appealing – we were wrong, it is! Huge sky-high interior (with two floors) and plenty of outside seating. We love the open feeling of the interior. The food is exceptionally good. The Fully Loaded Crispy Potatoes were delicate and superb! Not only to look at but in taste, the mix of garnishing was perfect. The BBQ Rice Bowl was so tasty with excellent BBQ pork and the dressing on the cabbage nice and delicate. The Spicy Chicken Sandwich was a surprise because instead of being typical fare, it was both crispy and juicy with a wonderful flavour. Along with a draft IPA and the sunshine, this was a gorgeous place to have a lunch. The service was excellent: our server, Kloe, was friendly, cheerful and attentive. As we had trouble deciding who was to have which dish, she thoughtfully asked if wanted separate plates to share – not unusual but she seemed to be tuned into our needs. Her manner seemed genuine and not forced. We’re definitely coming back, not just for the food and service but for the relaxed calm. Highly recommended!

Had dinner first time. Really enjoy nachos and had to order a second one. Hot wings are all drumsticks and no wings. Blue cheese sauce is good with drumsticks. Satay chicken peanut salad is a nice surprise. The server is very friendly and attentive. Restaurant had multiple TVs playing different sport games but not loud like social house.

The manager Bailey was lovely and lead us to our table on the dog friendly patio. Our server Rosie bought a water bowl for our pup. She was attentive throughout, personable and also had great energy! Best service that we have experienced out of all 3 Local branches that we’ve frequented so far. The space was clean and the patio was spacious compared to the Kitsilano patio. The potato cubes were cooked perfectly, layered and crispy, you can tell the chef put a lot of time into creating them. The sourdough bread was also delish. We would defo visit again!

My wife and I went to Local for brunch and had such a pleasant experience. Shoutout to Jayden who served us that day. He was so personable, easy to talk to, and made brunch on a rainy day so enjoyable. He gave the best menu suggestions that we ended up loving and he went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our dining experience. Honestly 10s across the board. The eggs benny was delectable and the crispy potatoes were very good; super crispy on the outside and soft and moist inside. It was just perfect. Was so surprised with how much I really enjoyed that experience. We live steps away and so we will definitely be coming by again to say what’s up to our man Jaden! -Dennis and Laureen
