I come and visit my friend every year and this is the 1st place we hit up. Waitress knows me even tho they see me once or twice a year. Love the beer and love the food. Great service everyone is friendly.
The food was delicious with HUGE portions so amazing value for your dollar. The waitress we had last Friday was absolutely terrific at her job! Gave suggestions, chatted with us and was fun without being obnoxious and overly friendly! Great decor and atmosphere as well. Will drive from Nanaimo to go there over and over again!!!
We started with some poutine which was delicious. The beef dip was so good, toasted bun was the perfect amount of soft and crunch. The onions and cheese took this sandwich over the top!
Absolutely must see place when stop by at Port Alberni. Size of plates like I visited last time pub in Houston US. Very authentic atmosphere and friendly staff. Beer and wine and lots of food!!!
Stopped in for late lunch/early dinner. Had the special chicken burger with mozzarella, pineapple and Teri sauce. Added the poutine option. DELICIOUS and filling! The exterior seemed a bit sketchy, but the interior is really well done. Will definitely stop again for a meal on our way through. You won't be disappointed.
I would give it 10 stars if I could. We were in Port Alberni for celebrating our wedding anniversary and decided to dine in Bucksnort’s considering it is one of those very few outlets that were opem until 9 pm. We went in with low expectations, but the variety of food, taste, quality and portion size blew our minds. One of the largest volume of margaritas and pinacolads I’ve ever had. Our server Hailey went above and beyond to make it a memorable experience for us, and treated us with a little makeshift dessert also (since it was a special occassion for us) although there were no desserts on the menu officially. We would definitely return to Bucksnort’s whenever we visit Port Alberni again.
My wife and I had been working on the island. After a long and difficult first week we found ourselves craving the comforts of a couple plates of hot brown. Bucksnorts did not disappoint with some tasty food, served in large portions, along side a couple cold mugs of beer. Bonus points for this place being the first place our baby tried a lime. Our server was handling the place solo and I was impressed with how smoothly she made the rounds. Settling bills, clearing tables, greeting new patrons and pouring drinks all while keeping cool and checking in to see how we were doing. No small feat in a decent sized room. Didn’t catch her name but shout out to her anyway. Great atmosphere. Great time.
I came in for my 18th birthday party and we were served by Brandylee and she was genuinely so amazing. So funny, and such a great waitress. I tried leaving her an extra tip and she wouldn't even let me because it was my birthday. She made it feel like I was being served by a friend and every time I come back, because I love the food so much, I hope to have her as my waitress. Lots of love for Brandylee and this restaurants amazing food!!
