I like the Boston Cheesesteak sandwich and the pizza.

They used to have the slices of baked potato nacho-like thing.

seems like they just copied Shark Club when they renamed it to "Vancouver" Club when we were playing the Sharks.

Seriously..boycott that damn place for being named Boston pizza to begin with and then trying to get on the good side of Vancouver fans by temporarily renaming it

HondaGuy 05-29-2011 01:30 AM

Last few times I went, the service was decent and food was good.

But the last 2 times, I went to Red Robins, I had the worst experience ever...stupid waitress and their attitude.

iam_dan 05-29-2011 03:11 AM

awful food, prices, service and portions.

boycotted the place after they bs'd about their policy 5 years back.

BP is owned by Jim Treliving. the older dude on Dragons Den, who is a Canucks fan. ya need to get ur facts straight anyways, its a BC company, long time sponsor of the Canucks as well. This move was planned for awhile now.

As for food, i honestly only find the one on Ackroyd/no3 in Richmond to be good for food and service. Everywhere else kinda sucks. That one is supposedly the "flagship" location i hear

While I agree BP is pretty terrible, I have to say their wings are much better now. They used to be the worst hands down, but they have good new flavours and options for how you want them cooked. Not just soggy oven baked any more.

As for customer service, I've never really had a problem.

Gridlock 05-29-2011 10:05 AM

The only reason people complain about the service is unlike:

1) shark club
2)cactus club
3) sammy J Peppers

It isn't an overdressed strip club.

I actually appreciate not having the waitress being more the meal than the food.

Now, BP's food also happens to suck and is expensive, so feel free to continue on that ;)

Portions seriously suck, for charging that much it should be at least a decent size.

The only times I've gone there are for Tuesday pastas. Funny pizzas taste like shit when it's named Boston Pizza.

OTG-ZR2 05-29-2011 10:52 AM

I dislike Boston Pizza.

Every time I go my meal is disappointing and bland.

Stopped going there a while back. Poor service, small portions and way over priced. Especially the pizza.

Death2Theft 05-29-2011 03:46 PM

They have the best honey garlic wings i ever had.

st. augustine's on commercial for the nucks game is pretty insane.
they have a huge variety of beer, food has been pretty quick every time i've gone there, waitresses were very polite and friendly (most of them were pretty cute). the overall service is pretty good, tv's were everywhere. the only shitty thing is you have to get there pretty early to get a table.

+1 to that.

Cactus club > boston pizza

Local + hot waitresses FTW

AAnthony 05-29-2011 06:03 PM

BBQ Chicken Pizza FTW! Other than that i don't give 2 shits about "Vancouver Pizza"

vafanculo 05-29-2011 06:09 PM

BP doesn't deserve all the shit it's getting in this thread.

The food isn't the best, but it's neither the worst. What other choices are in it's class? Personally I think it's alot better than Kelseys.

Pasta Tuesdays are do-able, cause paying $15 + for that plate of pasta normally is ridiculous. The pizza is nothing special, but still pretty good.

As for service, I've never had bad service there. All in all, if it wasn't as pricey as it is, BP wouldn't get as much negative reviews.

lets face it. You guys are dissing BP because you are all asian.

:troll:

GodZilla 05-29-2011 10:18 PM

So how long before they have to take the Canuck logo down?
Isnt that what happen to a few car dealerships when they had Canuck logo's outside there business?

You start out saying they don't deserve the shit they've gotten in this thread and then state that:

food isn't the best
paying normal price for pasta is ridiculous =overpriced
the pizza is nothing special

But the service is decent-you didn't even go that far. You said you've never had bad service there.

So, in essence, you are saying the waitress didn't overtly fuck up bringing nothing special, overpriced food that isn't the best to your table?

I'm sorry, where do you disagree with the rest of the thread?

Ive been going to BP alot. I have no idea why i keep going back there. Like people have said, its not the best food, but it aint the worst. Food there is bland at times.

Cant believe no one else said that there Beer is watered down like crazy.
