    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.

    I've going there since a couple years now before they even renovated it.The staff before this one are the greatest staff yet.I really miss those guys and they treated me with the most respect.
    Now the new staff?I did not understand them for they weren't as nice as the ones before.Why?That staff barred me out of all the people arguing that night.The people who butted in was none of their business and the young bartender barred me instead.I,today do not quit understand this.I tried to get my point across instead went on deaf ears.
    Being barred from there for almost 9months now and I really miss my friends that I made there.Also those bartenders before this one I miss to.That's I made some friends there and that's where I learn to sing in the karaoke times which was fun until that night hell broke loose.One good news about Oliver Twist that where I learned to sing and I give them credit for that and thank you Oliver twist for getting me started.I miss the place and my friends to.

    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.

    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.

    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..
