Chewies - Vancouver, British Columbia

This was my first visit this place, the atmosphere was like a fine casual dining bar. We tried the dine out menu, which was mostly deep fried dishes for appetizers, I chose Calamari was good. The main I chose seafood stuffed chicken which was huge portion as you can see in ... pictures. Chicken breast was good moisture, taste great with seafood with it. The dessert I chose coffee crème brûlée, I like the coffee flavour was strong, but the texture was too soft, almost like a custard cream, and no caramel part on top, so bit disappointing. Overall, 3 course for 45$ was pretty reasonable and good 👍 I’d say 3.5 ish stars. I might come back to try the oyster 🦪 next time. It looked great at the other table. One thing I’ve noticed the server smelled cigarettes, I didn’t appreciate the smell in restaurant setting. He was very friendly thou. Read more

We went here for my oldest daughter's birthday dinner in July and the food was delicious. We ate outside on the patio and our server took great care of us. We ordered spicy fried broccoli, fried brussel sprouts, hot wings, two types of oysters, and fries. Although I didn't eat the ... oysters, my daughter loved them. My 7-year-old liked the fries so much I had to order a second plate. They also made mocktails (which were not on the menu) for her and I which was very kind. Read more

Came on a Thursday evening with a friend. I am VERY conflicted about this place. Food was quite good. Oysters were above exceptional, calamari was great, surf and turf was decent, not great. The service on the other hand was bizarre! Our waiter was great at the beginning, very friendly, funny, ... swore a lot (that's part of the vibe I guess), and then half way through service, disappeared! Didn't come to check on the table, or clear it, nothing! We had to ask random waiters for another drink, or the bill, etc. Each of whom seemed pretty annoyed. I'm all for the fun laid back atmosphere, but when your bill is $300 for 2 people, I'd expect a minimal level of service. Read more

Amazing fresh oysters, fabulous menu, service, atmosphere and music!! Thank you Jamie and team for an awesome night celebrating our Anniversary. We ate here 2/4 night here in Vancouver!! Happy hour 3-6 everyday 🙂🙂

Service is slow here and it takes a long time for the raw oysters to come out. Nevertheless I love the atmosphere and decor of the restaurant. The food tastes amazing and they also have a cool rack of different sauces to try. The Tabasco sauce is still my preferred ... choice, if you want something spicy because I didn’t find the others spicy at all. Read more
