We visit here for the poutine once a month, sometimes more often.
Last night we were super hungry so we also had some burgers.
Lovely, beefy, meaty and full of taste.
Served on a fresh bun with tomato, lettuce, onion and pickle. They let you add your…More »

We love it. Did I mention I repeat myself. Yes, I do. But I surely don't mind repeating myself with more visits to this place. We ventured down…More »

Based on a photo posted by Marc D ( http://www.yelp.ca/biz... ) which had my mouth watering all day - plus yet another brilliantly written review, I was CRAVING this.

YUM! Was sad when the location on Main Street closed. Was happy when my honey told me that a location had opened on Commercial Drive. Was happier still once I tried the new location and found the food to be delicious.
Reasonably priced. Daily…More »
One of the great things about Cockney Kings is their fun placemats. Yes I know it's just a cheaply printed, thin piece of paper with Cockney Slang on it that is just as readily available on the internets!!! But it's fun and it makes waiting for…More »

Great local eatery slash bar slash music venue.
It is a moderately sized establishment which means that it doesn't hold huge crowds - just crowds large enough to enjoy the music, the food, and each others' company without…More »

This diner rocks. Great atmosphere. Amazing waitstaff.
Fries and chicken sandwich were quite delicious.
Not a fan of the poutine, but I am a poutine purist when it comes to the cheese. Grated cheese is no substitute for curds...

Poutine: Decent.
Fries were tasty and good texture (not too hard, not too soft)
Gravy was too peppery. I was suprised as I generally find that gravy is too salty.
Cheese was decent. Curds were tasty and of good quantity.
There is no real seating at…More »
To be honest, I enjoy Mr Pickwick's fish & chips quite a bit. But I am not a fan of this location. The Granville Street location has much less seating and I often use it for take out as the product is the same.
Perhaps it is the restaurant seating…More »
We'd been here before when they were in their old location, but decided to be brave and try the new spot.
Service and food was better in this place, but the noise levels were incredibly loud.

The first time we went to this place we were informed there were no washrooms and needing to visit the facilities I decided I would go somewhere else - where they were able to accommodate my needs.
We decided to give them a second chance - well…More »

Proof positive that I DON"T MAKE GOOD CHOICES WHEN I AM HUNGRY!!!
Our original destination was a little full and silly me, I didn't feel like waiting... lesson learned. Patience is a virtue.

Overall a 3 star experience - with potential!!!
Location - 4stars. There aren't many places in this neck of the woods and even nicer is that the neck of the woods is next to the Fraser River and a walking trail. Overall a bright airy space with nice…More »
Revisited this lovely establishment several times since the first review. It is consistently great. The Windjammer has converted my son from a fish hater to a fish lover!!!! I'm shocked.
Cod is great. Halibut is great too!
They do a lovely chicken…More »

Did you know there is a 'Proper Way to Eat Poutine"?
This according to my very wise daughter, the Queen of Poutine. Here is a quick summation:
1. With your fingers eat any un-gravied, un-curded fries that stick out from the edges of the bowl. This…More »
