Townhall Public House - Coquitlam

We stumbled upon this great 'pub' 4 or 5 years ago. Their promotions are excellent: free dinner on a birthday, free bubbly, etc on an anniversary, gifts galore for occasions galore. The owners know how to promote their product and there are several other locations around the lower mainland. How about $4 breakfast weekends at Hemmingways on Marine Drive in White Rock. Have to go early because it's packed, even in winter. The one in Coquitlam has over a dozen beers on tap. We especially enjoyed Canucks hockey nights where you can win a free round for the table if your 'hockey puck' number is a scorer.

This is our second time to a Townhall but first time here and the house wine was great and the calamari was amazing! Wiĺl be back! !

In a group, with the beer flowing, this might be a decent venue, plenty of space to bring tables together. Aside from the old ceiling & the restored pulley fans attached to it, it's just a lot of wood & the whole room is dotted with the multiple TVs of the typical sports bar. All that wood is not necessarily a bad thing but sticky arms on the chair is! Just had wings, & they were small but well presented & pretty decent. Very pleasant young server & I wondered why she didn't grab me another blue cheese dip when the first one expired early. Turns out there was an extra charge for each little pot of blue cheese dressing, which l thought was a bit much but maybe that's a west coast thing, I'll have to pay attention as I eat in other locations out this way. Didn't see all the heavy Irish dishes mentioned in another review by the way, & that's what drew me there in the first place! Mostly standard north American pub fare with a notable 14oz burger that I might have tried on a hungrier occasion. Bottom line is that is was okay but not a place I will be trying to remember to return to on the next visit to the area.

We chose a variety of dishes for sharing and for the most part were all good. The wor wonton soup was probably the best. The calamari were overly spicy - just not what I was expecting.

Ate here with friends. Near atmosphere and food is great. We shared some appetizers. The drink specials were a good price. Also the happy hour drinks were good price too.
