8 reviews for Whistler Brewhouse (Mark James Group)
| beermagnet (14), Quebec | | September 29, 2009 its alright but much more for the tourist than anything else. just go bak, do not collect 200$ and stop in squamish, the beer is better and you wont feel like, how can i say nicely, so... snobish... no, it would be more like... (fill the foid as you please) its just better in squamish | | Powertrip (11), Calgary, Alberta | | March 15, 2009 Very decent food and a whole whack of in-house brews that also include revolving seasonal selections. Bonus is that the beers are often quite good too! Neat set-up inside and a pleasent atmosphere.
Service is the only trouble spot here as it is often slow. Value isn’t bad, but still slightly escalated to resort-town prices. | | GeneralGao (220), Iowa City, Iowa | | March 9, 2009 Nice brewpub in just outside the center of the small Whistler village. Kind of a ski chalet feel. A big wood fired oven and it’s accompanying aromas greet you as you walk in. They had seven of their own beers on tap the day I visited, including two seasonals (a barelywine and an espresso imperial stout). The beer was above average for a brewpub. The service was good and the food was well above average for a brewpub. | | DuffMan (96), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta | | December 9, 2008 I was here in June 2008 but forgot to rate it. Pleasant spacious pub. Excellent service. Did not try the food. Very attentive service. They now have growlers to go. | | Crit (117), New Westminster, British Columbia | | April 8, 2007 [ Updated September 14, 2008 ] Hard to give points for ambiance when even the bar side was full of screaming children.Brewmaster came to chat , which was nice. Decent range of beers, most of which were better than I expected.Attentive ,speedy staff.Quite friendly.
Didn’t eat. | Malakin (3), Victoria, British Columbia does not count - explanation | | March 6, 2006 Like the other Mark James brewpubs the beer is watery and boring although it’s fairly consistant and fresh. The establishment has the feeling of a chain restaurant and the service on my one visit was below average. I sat at a nice bright table and was able to look out the window at a stream and people walking by, the ambiance was above average. Food was fairly average. | | Oakes (421), gone rambling, Vietnam | | February 7, 2006 Not my favourite local brewpub, no. As Joe says, standard Mark James appearance of warm but sterile. The menu was unadventurous. Beers were weak, but they have been better. New brewer last summer and I guess he’s not got it together yet. These were clearly brewing flaws. One thing I did like a lot was the board stating whether a beer was in good supply, nearly done, or out. Knowing if a beer is in good supply (presumably fresh, especially in ski season) or running low can be the difference in the order, no question. Brilliant idea. | | JoeMcPhee (262), Jackson Heights, New York | | January 24, 2006 When I was there the pub looked like a daycare... no fewer than 10 kids yelling and screaming in the place. Typical Mark James brewpub appearance, dark wood, stone, some wrought iron. Food was pubby and overpriced, beer was really quite poor. I can’t recommend it until they clean up their beers. Waitress had a habit of being around when I wanted to be left alone and disappearing when I needed something. |
