Was Avi F at Blackfish Pub a mag?
After a rough day, my group and I decided to dine at the BlackfishPub where our fantastic server, Courtenay, turned our evening around. She was extremely professional, friendly, polite, and understanding. The service was top-notch. I highly recommend their menu, particularly the delicious creamy clam chowder, the steak served with real mashed potatoes, gravy, mushrooms, and carrots. For dessert, I enjoyed the amazing...

What Melissa Mills dislikes about Blackfish Pub:
Was not impressed today, it was my daughter's Birthday very obvious balloons, cake and even sang Happy Birthday !!!! And when I got the bill they charged her meal. So much for getting a Birthday meal. I asked why we're we charged, cause it was obvious..No reply only the couldn't reimburse so they gave he $20 gift certificate instead of remembering the meal, considering nothing on the menu is that price unless its a s...

First - the staff They are all super friendly. Great vibe from them. My breakfast arrived cold and wrong. The server took care of it right away but it took a bit. I would go back as the place seems well run and fun.

Thank you Erin for being awesome. The great food was a bonus to your awesome attitude. My omelet was awesome and so was all the other food at our table. We have had a wonderful visit to the Sunshine Coast and we will return.

We had the charcuterie board and the halibut tacos. They were both amazing!! The charcuterie board was a great mix flavours and the halibut tacos were probably the best meal we had on the Sunshine Coast!! Highly recommended!! Great service too!

The Halibut dinner is phenom...not your average pub fare...but delicious all the same! The sauce(lemon dill) if I remember correctly. Thanks Jo! Corey behind the bar and his beautiful wife Alisa are great hosts

My wife and myself were staying in the hotel directly opposite the Pub, so decided to give it a try after reading some good reviews, but we couldn't find anything to make a return visit - what we had to eat was very, very average pub fare with large portions, mainly mashed potatoes. and expensive.Poor.Smiths from the UK

If I could give, say, 2.5 I would; better than 2 but not a 3. Visited on a Thursay evening about 7 7:30. Fairly busy, but not crazy busy. Quick attention from our server (hardest working server I 've seen in a while but inordinate delay for our food; simple chicken pasta and Asian salad. Food arrived: pasta hot on the outside, warm on the middle telling me it probably sat under the heat lamps a while. Salad mainly a mass of noodles with minimal other ingredients. Unpleasantly spicy/hot (wasabi peas overdone? . The pasta was decidedly 'meh '; tasted more like Bechamel sauce than Al Fredo. The cheese was virtually absent (I was told there 's parmesan on top , otherwise I wouldn 't have known . I 've eaten at the Blackfish lots over the years; always happy with the good, basic pub food. Not this time. They took my meal off the bill (I didn 't want that; all I wanted was improvement and, again, our server was VERY hard working and took my concerns (she asked to heart. Still thinking whether I 'll be back probably not too soon.

Food and service was excellent, between 2 of us we shared the mussels and ribs, which were more than enough food and absolutely delicious. Would highly recommend!

Great service and the food came out super quick on a weekday lunch hour. We had the pulled pork sandwich with potato fries and cranberry chicken brie with yam fries which were tasty. They have on-site parking.

If you're in the world today, take everything you have a break from all your worries... wouldn't you like to get away? Then Blackfish Pub is the place! Sometimes you want to go... Where everyone knows his name And they are always glad that you came You want to be where you can see (ah-ah) Our problems are all the same (ah-ah) you want to be where everyone knows your name. Try the daily special... there's always something good. Free meal on birthday! Two terraces that are brilliant in summer. Enjoy!

It was fairly busy when we arrived, and it took a while for our drinks to be brought over after ordering. There was an issue with one of the plates, but they were super accommodating about remaking it. We will definitely be back again.

We ate here a few weeks back. The customer service was excellent and a very clean pub with a nice layout and two patios. The back patio is dog friendly so we really appricated that during the summer travels!Im sure most of the their food is good as it has good reviews however the beef dip was only so-so sadly, pretty plain, the bun was decent but the Dip wasnt flavored enough, tasted watered down and the sandwich lacked flavor too unfortunately. Bland a tad dry, and with an upcharge for the Caesar salad my meal was around $24 for a simple plain beef dip and small salad, then add tax and tip and it wasnt an overly large dinner. LolI could see maybe if the beef was real roast beef they do in house or was a large portion or something for the price, but it was the generic restaurant thin slice beef most places serve. Maybe it needed (more mayo or garlic butter and more of a toasted bun?... Im generally not overly picky but a little more to it would be nice if charging those prices.The pulled pork sandwich was said to be decent enough when I asked how it was, so thats good.The servers were very friendly and a nice place.Id just prob order something else next time and get more bang for your buck. Its a tad pricer then most pubs but that could just be the areas pricing. ;

Food was decent. Service was slow and we were not checked on very often. Had to go to the counter to get our bill.Kid-friendliness: They have a few kid-friendly sections but not really set up for kids. No kids menu so we had our 2 kids split an adult entry. They were kind enough to split it on 2 plates.

Nothing special, pub food! Average service if that. Servers don't seem to care or pay attention. Over priced and only place open until 10pm. Do not recommend.

We finally found a restaurant where all six of us enjoyed our meals! We decided to try this place based on a recommendation and we were glad we did. We asked our waitress about the spiciness of the maple Chipotle ribs and she assured us they were mild. Half of us ordered them and were pleasantly surprised by how mild they actually were. The clam chowder was delicious and the garlic toast was excellent. The only complaint about the French Onion soup was that the onions were not chopped well, making it difficult to eat. The side tossed salad was small, but the waitress did mention this and said we could ask for more if needed. Overall, we would recommend this restaurant.

We had a great time celebrating a birthday at this restaurant! The birthday boy received a complimentary meal and his first drink as he turned 19. The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. Thank you very much for a wonderful experience!

Good food and good service. Even with understaffed waiters and cooks, you wouldn't have thought they were being delayed. Food was quick and service was pleasant and frequent. Burgers were really good and fish and chips were yummy!

One of my favourite places to go to find a fireplace and cozy atmosphere on a cold night. Friendly service and yummy food!
