Review from Katrina R.
Burnaby, BC
I went a couple days ago with my friend and my boyfriend to try their burger special (burger and beer for 9 or 10 dollars). I don't like beer so my boyfriend got mine, but the burger... Oh my goodness. The burger was delicious and huge, with the rest of the plate filled with fries. Even the fries were wonderful. I couldn't stop eating even when I got full, so walking home was uncomfortable (but in a good way!). Then I went to bed.
This makes me want to try the rest of the food that they offer! I might even get started tonight.Listed in: Places I Keep Coming Back To

Review from Dominique W.
Burnaby, BC
A pub. Nothing is really special, but things are done correctly.
I think it is hard to be exceptional in the pub format; I don't expect much, and am mostly interested in the basics not being messed up, rather than some uniqueness or flair. Oliver Twist does the basics well. Reasonable daily drink specials, pleasant staff, and the food is actually not bad, especially if you go for one the specials.
And, as many other yelpers have suggested, an excellent place to watch a hockey game if you live in this area. -
Review from Gino E.
We chose to hit Oliver Twist up, since it was close to our hotel and our friends wanted to watch the Canuks game. Unfortunately, the only seating available was in the patio, where all the smokers were hanging out. Nothing like some second-hand smoke to go with dinner...
We order the hat-trick special, which is a bacon cheeseburger with mushrooms, and fries for $4.95. Nothing special, but definitely tasty and bang for your buck! We also got adventurous and ordered the Perogies, not having a clue what the hell it was, even after having two locals attempt to explain what they were. We were definitely glad we ordered it, after seeing it was some kind of potato dumplings with cheese, bacon, AND sausage! The ultimate man-meal... Which is what the girlfriend ordered. Definitely a must when visiting Oliver Twist, especially for us "Yankees."
In addition to the decent bar food and excellent service (despite the place being jam-packed due to the game), the best part of the experience were the drunks of the night. This included a filipino lady in her 50s looking all crazy, that came out to the patio YELLING a Black Eyed Peas song that took us some time to recognize, due to her heavy accent and her slurring, and the crazy drunken Irish dude that was bragging about having a Chinese girlfriend with a big ass. This was a lot more fun than the usual LA drunken douchebags we experience everytime we go out...
Good times. -
Review from Michael C.

Great place to watch the Canucks play!
Why? Cause people don't know it exist! I remember the first time looking for this place. I must have passed by it 3 times before I saw the turn in. Google didn't even know where it!
It's rarely busy here (though I have yet to come here during the finals, but it sure a great back up place to Wings). It's a local's bar here. Not many people know about it and seems to have a lot of older people here.
The food here is cheap, simple and good! Get the wings here, especially when they are on special. The wings are a lot better than a lot of places I've tried.
I would come here more often, but it's a bit out of the way for me. -
Review from Kassim D.
so..I came here to watch a 'nucks game the other night and grab some grub and it was hopping. I had never been to this spot on the weekends so I didn't know what to expect...
They were great (as usual) - food still consistent (excellent nachos) and service quick, friendly, and well dressed which was a nice touch.
feeling lucky? during hockey games everyone in the bar gets a raffle ticket and whenever the canucks score a goal they pick a ticket from their drum and if you win, you get to spin the wheel which equals free drinks and/or food.. - all good things.
they started Karoake upstairs, if that's your thing...ha
still worth the trip and many more..1 Previous Review: Show all »
