    I was looking for a nice place that could accommodate a group of 5 last minute and scored a reservation online for about half an hour out, which gave us just enough time to get over there comfortably. It was very nice to have the reservation and skip the long walk-in line. We chose to sit inside instead of on the patio, because while the patio had a great view, it was loud. The inside was actually kind of interesting; they have a big wall of books (mostly older educational books) that we looked at after we ate. Washrooms are single-stall and clean. Our server was very friendly, although left us alone for a bit too long after we'd finished our entrees and wanted to order dessert, and eventually pay. The food was good. I got the ranchero rice bowl with tofu, and shared the fall special pumpkin pie bread pudding for dessert. Good flavours in the rice bowl. The cajun tofu was generously seasoned and a little spicy. The pumpkin pie bread pudding was a really unique way to enjoy pumpkin pie, and the tangy labneh centre was a nice touch. I definitely recommend trying this. One of my friends and I ordered the ube colada to drink. I was going to get the regular version, but when she ordered, she asked for non-alcoholic and I decided to switch to non-alcoholic after I found out they could make it. I thought it was okay but didn't taste much like ube, but she said she could taste the ube. We both found very sweet though; I bet the alcohol helps cut the sweetness in the regular version. I liked the whipped coconut cream topping it off though. Overall it was a good experience here and I would definitely go again with a group.

    We enjoyed our dinner at Tap & Barrel last night! Lively vibe in a beautiful setting overlooking Vancouver Harbour. Super friendly service from the young staff. We shared veggie quesadillas to start then I had the fried chicken Mac & Cheesa and my husband had the fried chicken burger… all delicious and large portions. It’s a great spot for beers and casual lunch & dinner.
