Ross Bay Pub

You would not think we were in the middle of a pandemic when I walked in on Dec 12, 2020. They need to seriously re-think their Cover-19 protocols. I walked right back out and will never be back. They obviously care more about the mighty dollar then the health and welfare of their costumers and the community

Been a while since we came here....food is so so but server was friendly. A nice neighborhood pub in a beautiful part of town. Beer selection is good.

Ordered a reuben sandwich. It was made with thick chopped up scraps of the meat. Beef soup had no beef in it. First time going here and probably the last.

Food less than mediocre , service was good and music was excellent. The BLTC is way overpriced the cheese was see through two thin skinny pieces of bacon my gf and I sent the meals back. Don’t eat here.

The importance of this review is focussed on Covid as it is the current determining factor of whether I will return or not. The pub was at 30% occupancy when I arrived so there were many seating options. I prefer to sit at the bar as I am a bartender myself and I want to support the others in my trade. There were a few patrons sitting spaced about 1m apart but there was an empty chair on the end, spaced with another empty seat from the next closest guest so I opted for that. About 10 mins after sitting and ordering I heard the bartender say "if he doesn't mind" and I turned to see another, older fellow standing a foot behind me who promptly sat in the seat beside me, now almost shoulder to shoulder. Although I kept my composure, I was FURIOUS. Aside from the many obvious negations of Covid protocol (no hand washing - especially after touching cash, no proper plexiglass dividers, zero masks anywhere), to have a person put me at risk without even asking me was too much. I am fully comfortable with going out in this pandemic and supporting local businesses, I myself rely on it, but to have another industry person straight-up ignore the last line of security (distancing), without my permission is unacceptable. If I wasn't so hungry I would have paid for my beer and walked out. Other than this experience which will most likely have me never to return I observed: - Limited spirit selection for space available and standard beers on tap - Food was very average, even for a neighborhood pub - There was goat cheese or another spoiled chunk of cheese that was mixed into my poutine - She did sanitise the POS debit terminals - She was friendly and polite - It was open on a holiday I would not recommend this venue.
