The Taphouse Restaurant - Nanaimo

While we were waiting for our hamburgers we could see the waiter taking back food to the kitchenWhen we finally got our food we understood why ,the hamburger was red inside extremely dangerous consumption ,the buns were cold my wife and I were totally disgusted and return the food also

I truly feel bad for this establishment. It has changed management many times since first operating as "Fibbers McGees" however has always had the same family ownership.Hours are always changing and they will close early quite often. makes for a unreliable choice. ONE example. New Years eve they advertised open till 11. we made this a stop on our list with friends. when we arrived we were met at the door by a kitchen worker stating they decided to close early. Thanks!Food is very hit and miss when eating in as well as take out. We have ordered $30 take out. Two chicken strip meals. both meals without salad dressing and consisted of two regular sized chicken fingers and the other two equaled one. felt ripped off.for summer 2017 the Patio is not even close to as busy as it has been in years past and I hope this becomes a wake up call to the owners to treat it like a business and have a competent individual who has the know how and ability to run a proper reliable establishment that does not need to go have FAKE re-openings every year.Service staff needs a major wake up call and re training. Service= tips.....Please update your online info. We have used that to confirm operating hours and arrived to find out you are closed and only updated the paper in the front entrance window.SO MUCH potential. WAKE UP!

2 hours , had two drinks in this time an hour apart, not by choice. Never did take the food order gave up after waiting 1/2 hour for the third drink that never came. I really wanted to give this place a good review and tried 3 different times in as many months and there has been no improvement. I tried to talk to the manager on my way out and she turned her back on me, literally.

Food was good, a bit pricey.The Berried Alive Raspberry Beer is so good, tried some of the British and German beer and local micro brews.

This is a great little place; last weekend was my first visit. They did a wonderful job serving our large, boisterous party. Great food, great service, and I will definitely be back to enjoy the sunny patio this summer!
