About this business
We owe a couple rounds of whisky to the Founding Father of Gastown, Captain Jack Deighton. Also known as "Gassy Jack," he was a pilot turned saloonkeeper who loved to gas, & no, that doesn't mean what you might think it means. In Victorian times, the term meant to talk a lot & the Captain loved to do just that. Gastown has a distinct character that brings you back in time with its cobbled streets, exposed brick, famous Steam Clock & beautiful street lights. It's one of the many reasons we love being part of this iconic neigh... read more

Six of us arrived at Local at around 10 pm, Saturday November 5th. Server served us until 12:30. We got our bills and decided, since we had a long train home we'd get another round of shots for the road. So because we had paid, we all got up and went to the bar to take the final shot. Server told us we'd have to find a table because he can't serve us at the bar. Fair! We all complied and walked to a tall table to stand at. The manager then comes over, annoyed. Asks us what we were doing, and that we couldn't just walk in of... read more
The breakfast sandwich and breakfast hash with beef were both really yummy. I ordered an orange juice and got like 1/4cup of watered down Tropicana in a highball glass that was 60% ice...really bizarre and the combination of watering it down so much plus filling it with ice tasted awful. How expensive is it for them to just give a person a normal glass of orange juice..?
I ordered the veggie burger and couldn't eat it because there was too much mayo, it was such a poorly put-together burger. It was also $18.50 CAD. My husband asked for the pasta which was very small portioned and we asked for no cheese, but it came with cheese. Nothing for kids here and the service seemed slow and not enough waitresses. Our waitress was nice and felt bad about the mix up and took off the meal from the bill.
Hello, I am leaving this review because I am hoping that Local Gastown reads this. My husband went out to eat with his buddy and ordered a Virgin Caesar because he was taking cough medicine due to a cold. When he got home, he was feeling really off and it was clear to me that he had been given something with alcohol in it (he was flushed, his breath smelled of alcohol). I am asking if Local Gastown please double check their drink orders? I don't want to see this happen to someone who orders a virgin drink because they can... read more
This is probably my worst bar experience . Beer is flat, chicken wing amount was very limited and perrogies were bland.
Being a huge supporter of local by coming here on the regular. I was completely disappointed by their new nachos. My partner and I came here with the excitement of having a full order of nachos that we enjoy on the regular but we were never informed by the changes that occurred. We love the kitchen staff that assemble all the dishes because they do a fabulous job day in and day out. We are disappointed by the direction the culinary team has decided to move in and will not be regular customers moving forward.
Im from seattle washington. i came in with a group of 6 people and we all ordered dishes. upon ordering my dish (hippy egg on toast on happy hour menu) the toast was cold and dry and very difficult to eat. the eggs (poached) were cold and were cooked all the way well done when i asked for them to be runny. when i informed the waitress of this matter she didnt seem to assist and tried to explain her way out of it as if i dont know my food pallet. wouldnt ever go to this place again. terrible service
Local Gastown is a fun place to spend a lunch or early afternoon of people watching - my bitch likes the Tuna Club and I always order the nachos which I I know to be the best this side of San Antone / I'll eat anything of course so really the secret to pleasein me is good service / All the Local gals are always in a festive mood and the ambience of historic Gastown make the experience like a mini vacation / the GM Brody Jones has established himself as a regular Vancouver Bon vivant in the style of a gentlemanly Ted Kenned... read more
Went in for drinks. Mine was overloaded with vodka which made it unappealing for me. Nothing about the place from the decor, customer service or menu stood out. I did notice quite a few dirty tables despite it being relatively slow with lots of staff. Being surrounded by establishments like The Diamond, Six Acres, L'Abattoir, etc I was just expecting it to have some flare or something unique. Definitely missing Chill Winston!
