Landlubber Pub - Nanaimo, British Columbia

We didn't know they had a patio here, but it's quite spacious and nice, just a bit loud with the traffic outside. Service was quick and attentive, food took a bit longer but worth the wait! I ordered the tater tots and they were amazing, so crispy and creamy! Drinks were also delicious.

I really wanted to like it here, and after hearing mixed reviews, I decided to try it. The food seems pretty standard for a bar but, I was still a little disappointed with the quality. Not to mention, the single highballs come in what looks like a sample cup. I feel like the regulars are highly catered to, and there was a point in our dining experience where we were seen by our waitress for an hour.
The big-screen TVs were nice, and the billiard tables are fun too. I think if they could improve the food a little & train the staff a bit better, this establishment could be great.
One great thing I will mention, the wings. The wings were great and had lots of variety but were a tad expensive.

I have been coming to the LandLubber for years. The staff is always very friendly. The food is amazing. I personally love the beef dip. It is one of the best beef dips in town. Definitely come here if you want a nice atmosphere and good food.

The access for wheel chairs is awesome new to the whole experience and the bathrooms staff and area is very accommodating. Easy to move around and bathroom is accessible with ease. Would recommend to anyone looking for an enjoyable time with family that needs a little more consideration.

We’ve recently moved back into the area and heard good things about Landlubber, but our first time a few nights ago was concerning. We were served by an older blonde lady and once we had been seated, we were quickly forgotten about.. When attempting to flag her down about our orders, we saw her drinking alcohol behind the bar and I’m pretty sure that’s not allowed, if not illegal? If the service was great, it would be somewhat excusable, but to reek of alcohol and forget about your section of customers is super unprofessional.

The food and drinks we did enjoy, but I don’t think we’ll be back again while this server is allowed to be under the influence on shift.

These 5 stars are because of Julia, a server at Landlubber. She is one of the best servers ever. She gets to know her customers and treats them incredibly well with very quick and friendly service.
I've been to the landlubber several times, and I'm generally happy with food and service.
My friend Miranda is a regular there with the dart league and has told me, "I love my servers at many venues, but Julia is by far the best I've ever had."
