What I didn’t like:

I did think it was a little overpriced to
make me a regular. And the feel of the inside
seating area was a little to cramped for my
taste. Probably a summer bar for me.
Specials:

The Tuesday afternoon specials were
pretty lame. I tried the appy special: stuffed
Yorkies with shaved beef, Yorkshire pudding
and gravy ($1.50 each, but you have to buy
at least 2). I actually didn’t finish eating, as
the taste wasn’t the best. However, one of my
eating assistants had no problem finishing
it off for me. The meal special was bangers
and mash ($10.00). As for the drink specials,
none of them appealed to us. They had a
Glass of Pampas del Sur Chardonnay or Vina
Maipo Cabernet Sauvingnon ($5.00) and
bottles of Grolsch ($5.50). We had Caesars
($6.00) instead.

What I liked:

The overall ambiance of the joint, quaint
tables with big loungey chairs and smooth
jazz playing (when the game wasn’t on,
anyways), made of a nice place to have a
quiet drink and the food was pretty tasty. My
eating assistant and I had the cheese tray for
two ($14.99) and the Forrest Gump flatbread
($8.99).

What I didn’t like:

I used to stop by after classes when
Canucks games were on because they had
a sweet deal on mediocre beer and tasty
flatbread pizza. However, after the playoffs
were over and I had to pay full price for my
drinks and food, I was less impressed. Way
overpriced. If I wanted to spend $9.00 on a
delicious cocktail, I’d do it downtown. The
service wasn’t great either: they forgot to
punch in one of our meals so we didn’t end
up getting our dinner for almost an hour after
we'd ordered.
Specials:

My lovely eating/drinking assistants and
I came here on a Thursday evening. They
didn’t have a food special that night, but
the drink specials were pretty good. I had a
sleeve of Rickard’s White ($3.99) — but they
did forget my orange slice — and my friend
had an Exposed Martini ($6.75). They also
had Superman Shots on for $3.85.

The Terminal Pub

What I liked:

I stopped by here for lunch on a Tuesday
with a few friends. Our waitress was really
good, the food was super tasty and the prices
were reasonable. As we were there for lunch,
it wasn’t very busy, but the Tuesday evening
special event was board game night (where
you order games off the waitress) and we
were told it usually gets pretty busy. I’ll
definitely be back to check that out!

What I didn’t like:

The location of the bar isn’t the greatest.
Not only is it the farthest away from school,
but you have to go by the kind of creepy
sexy store, Fantasy Factory. Leaving it late
at night, all alone, might not be the best idea.
I'd probably shell out the $10.00 for a cab to
the skytrain.

Specials:

The Terminal has really great specials,
especially during lunch (11 a.m. - 3 p.m.).
They offer any sandwich on their menu,
plus a side, for only $7.50. My friends and I
all took advantage of that, having the cajun
chicken burger, Yves veggie burger and a
pulled pork sandwich. We all enjoyed our
meals immensely, and we were too full to
finish our fries!
