The Great Bear Pub

Great special on wings on Wednesday’s. They were delicious, saucy and crispy. They do it right! Venue is big, there was only 1 server when I went with my group but I assume it’s because of COVID? In any case, she was friendly and pretty quick considering she was by herself. Will be back for sure

We’ve ordered from here a bunch over the course of the pandemic... their food is always a win! Super tasty and fresh. The garlic Rosemary aioli is A+ ! Great pub food, 5/5 on that aspect. The reason for the low rating... TERRIBLE service. Holy cow. Our server was dining with friends (???) when we came in. The bartender seated us. The server came over and told us the daily specials... that was the last time she spoke to us. LITERALLY. When we ordered and when she brought us drinks/appetizers/food... she did not say a word. Not even in response to us saying thank you. She just scowled and walked away. Both my partner and I are in the service industry and we were embarrassed for her. She didn’t do any quality checks and she left as we were finishing our mains without saying anything to us. She also spent most of her time standing at her friends table, to the point that the bartender came to check on us twice. He’s also the one that cashed us out. I believe Nicholas was his name. He was entirely more pleasant and professional than her. Also... I’m not sure what their covid policies are because they’re not posted on the website from what I can see, but the female server wasn’t wearing a mask at any point. Nicholas and the kitchen staff were, from what we could see. She should know better. We will still order from here but definitely won’t come back for dine in. We normally like the pub setting but won’t take a risk on such bad service again. Hoping it was just an off day for her and not a constant thing! I don’t want to blast her publicly but would love to let management know who it was.

The place to chill out and have fun with friends and meet new ppl it is my best place to play snooker or pool , please don't hesitate to contact me if you want more to know . Best food ,best hospitality, best every thing come there and let's meet there.

The pub was kinda big and cosy and I liked it. I ordered beer and burger, both were fresh and great !

Social distancing was happening, it's quiet enough to go in and have a drink and a chat without noise and distractions. Won $100- on the pull tab, that made it worthwhile! Yah!
