Reviews of Kelly & Carlos O'Bryan's Courtenay (Coffee Shop)

Lynne Cronk

Went to lunch with my son and Mom, service was amazing! Waitress was very attentive, patient and visited our table frequently. One of our favourites spots! Plus those fried pickles and pacho’s are amazing!

This place is a joke. After the first bad experience about a year ago my friends said you might of just caught it on a bad day so I gave it another chance. Still sucks service is slow and ridiculous what there serving you for the price you pay. Very disappointing and I'll never go back.

Jackie Kenzie

Surprisingly good. We were a little disappointed with our drinks. Long island ice tea was in a short glass and we couldn't taste the alcohol at all. My peach margarita came in a short glass as well and was meh so we were concerned about how the food would be. However, the beef dip and broccoli soup was very good and so was the chicken quesadillas and caesar salad. Wait staff were very friendly and efficient.

Candace Plamondon

Just great. Waitress was perfect, food and drink right on. Second time there (live out of town) and have fun going there. Will be back soon.

Quinn Wilson

Outstanding service. Angelica downloaded the app for me and helped setting it up. Informed me of the game night beer choice and promptly delivered. Always takes great care of me

Peggy Henwood

The food was great and service was awesome considering the fact they seemed a bit short staffed. Our server she worked well with my hearing disability and had good hunor.

josh pendlebury

The food is great but pretty expensive here, the drinks are 5 star for variety!

Tim Nolan

Had a visit on Sunday afternoon at 3 pm. The start of the visit we were well attended to... drinks and food arrived promptly. Two of three food items delivered to the table were almost inedible due to over salting. Normally this shouldn't be an issue but the wait staff vanished and we couldn't get the food returned. They did give us a coupon for a free appitizer next visit. Then the staff put us onto ignore mode again and we waited forever for a bill. While I contemplated just walking out to make a point, I did go to the bar to settle the tab. Yup, the staff were busy but that should be a managers issue not mine.

Eating in the restaurant is usually pretty good, but the “skip the dishes” orders aren’t even cooked... spent $50 for pachos family size and the cheese wasn’t even melted. When I phoned them they told me it was supposed to be that way for to go orders. If they can’t cook, what are we paying them for. Last time I do a skip order, but may consider trying them again In restaurant.

Richard Green

I appreciate the fact that this is a franchise restaurant and pub and they have two excellent local craft brews on tap. Would like to see a few more as there is some world class beer here in the valley. Service here was really great even though they was a steady line and wait list. Food was what you expected and didn't disappoint. Prices seemed a tad high. I'll be back for that Pacho sauce... I wanted to dip EVERYTHING in it!!

John Brandt

It was my first time here tonight and it was a wonderful experience. Our waitress was awesome, the food was phenomenal, drinks were equally as good, and the company was even better. I will definitely be back!

steve roberts

Had Amanda as our server and she is amazing! Thanks girl!!!! Great patio, had a lot of sun from 4 to 6pm (which is appy hour). Great food, too! This is a 5-minute walk from my place so I’ll be here more. :) Édit: added another photo. 5/5 stars yet again! Server was so nice I wish I could remember her name.

Jeff Eckstein

Very friendly staff. Excellent service. Great food

Nora-Lyn Healey

Generally a very good experience! However, I went to the Halloween party with some friends and a waitress told us we weren't allowed to dance?

Frank Zumbo

Good service, very friendly server, however the "kilt" on the female servers were like mini skirts. In Kamloops wherever are from, they are worn at a proper length.

R J Hurst

Friendly and helpful staff. Lots of prizes and give aways.

Curtis Neill

Great food, great service, great choices on the menu, they even have a daily happy hour.

P A

Really tasty food. The place was not busy while we were there. Very friendly servers. One gentleman behind the bar was not quite as friendly but he may have been having a bad day. ????‍♂️. Would go back.

Thank you for making my 30th birthday enjoyable! My daughter and I really enjoyed the food and service! I had a steak cooked to perfection, the bechamel sauce was amazing. Prawns weren't over cooked, the "champ" potato was scrumptious, delicious meal. The service was awesome, the servers working were so fun chatty and bubbly! I will be back! Thank you!

Linda Vass

Good food, friendly staff

Sharren K. Grant

Food took a while to get to us, but gosh darn it was worth it. If you get a chance - have the Extreme Pachos. They're absolutely delicious. Also, if it's your birthday, I highly recommend swinging by for some free grub if you're with some friends. As for staff, we had a lovely waitress with a wonderful sense of humour. Thumbs up!

Rob Long

Pub style food. They have a happy hour starting at 2pm. They have a very large beverage selection of beers, craft cocktails and tons of shooters. Crowd is not too loud or rowdy. Maybe before but with covid it's been a bit of a quieter place. They have a pub side and dining side however they are basically the same thing just less tvs. And kids are allowed on the dinning side.

Jeremy Hannaford

Great place and even better staff

Rea Manguba

Awesome place to hang out, have dinner, eat great, and have awesome service. Thanks Angelica for being an amazing waitress!!!

Gary Townsend

Well priced lunch menu. The only negative was the edgy server.

Jeff Jedras

An uninspiring, supposedly Irish pub. Staff were friendly, food wasn't great and is rather overpriced for what it is.

Kevin Schindler

ORDER THE PACHOS!! Kelly O's is a great place to eat if you have a group of fun people to share the meal with. They're friendly, spacious, open late, and reasonably priced. There's hardly ever a wait to be seated, and the booths are comfy and private. (Order the pachos, they're delicious I promise)

Clint Smith

Stopped in on way up island, figured it would be a good choice. We were very hungry. We ordered 4 appetizers. Literally the most rubbery calamari ever been served. The stuffed mushrooms weren't much better. Both my wife and I agreed as we turned left on cliff northbound that when we passed the a&w that a burger there would have been better. We were charged $66 for food that I wouldn't serve a guest.i asked for more drinks several times, nothing. If you are in the same situation, looking for good food on route, consider somewhere else.

Paul Tytor

Good service. Friendly servers. Good place to watch sports.

Bruce Hryckiw

Glass splinters in the drink, need to ask to remove it from the bill.$5 extra to replace your patato chips with Panchos. I can't say I was happy with the service.

Lady Wolf

Meal type

Miguel Parra

Excellent food and great service. Definitely need to try the pacho's and make sure to get extra emerald isle sauce!

Lucas Phillips

It was good but sent my baked potato back twice it was cold and hard both times

Kevin Bogdan

Great staff!! ???? best food for our afternoon dates after the Casino

Ella Hayes

What a joke. Some of the worst service I've had in a really long time. It took twenty minutes for us to get a drink and food order after being seated. With our drink order we asked for water. After the third time asking for water I went up to the bar and asked for it again. It still didn't come. I felt ignored the entire time I was there. The food was good but ridiculously over priced. I can't recommend this place unless you are getting shots with the bros. The photo below is $30 of food...

Joseph Smith

Karen our waitress was lovely! The food was excellent and they followed all Covid protocols. Will return for sure????????

Mike Collins

Food was delicious. Server was fantastic

Kari L

Gotta love some chicken lips and pachos!! Loved this chain in Kamloops and like it still here.

Dylan Harris

Very Tasty 10/10 enjoyed. The calamari is actually extremely well cooked which was a surprise because most places have pretty chewy or crunchy calamari but this place had probably the second best calamari I've had in my life. :)

Rob Haigh

Went here with my wife. Food was great, service was good, but $13.00 for two small cups of coffee. Did not realize it until I had to pay.

Lars Helgesen

Great food and excellent service.

Don Carstensen

My fiancée and I were VERY displeased with the service here. We waited 5-10 minutes just to get seated when it was completely dead, waited another 5-10 minutes just for our drinks and then waited 20 minutes as we watched our server walk past us and look at our table with our menus CLOSED. We walked out and went to Browns Socialhouse, always an amazing experience there.

Sarah Jess

One star because they deserve a 2 but their current rating needs to be brought down. Food ho-hum for the inflated price. No sauce or dippings or offer of ketchup or salt or pepper on the table. Short a set of forks and knives, and no glasses of water without expressly asking. No mid meal query on how the meal was or opportunity to ask for the ketchup etc... An Irish pub where the waitress couldn't answer a simple question about Guinness. Went once, spent too much for the meal and service, won't be going again.

Jo-Ann Adams

Showed up for dinner, but was happy hour so had the appys Tuna tacos was really good and the stuff mushroom ???? where delicious. Great atmosphere.

Andrew Batek

Excellent food and service. Beautiful patio space.

Richelle Johnston

Sly sylvestre

Great service Karen Sienna and Cherry make an amazing team

Dudtin Thompson

Food was reasonable, the service was ok, but it is not the same caliber it used to be.

Aaron Hansen

Wonderful and welcoming to our family for a late lunch. Great variety of food genuine and engaging staff. All around excellent experience. I read through about 100 reviews before I brought my family here. And I was wary because of A few dismal experiences other people had. But I see very little truth in it

Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend.

Chad Massa

Terrible service from the time I arrived till I left. I came in during the happy hour time. I was seated promptly, placed @ the bar. Bartender got me a beer, which was sort of cold. I had to ask what the happy hour special were. I waited a good long while for someone to take my food order. When the food arrived ( chicken quesadillas & waffle fries ) I started eating the fries, bloody cold. Quesadillas were mediocre. At the start of eating, no staff came by to ask how the food is, nothing. Long after I finished, leaving the uneaten fries on the plate, again no staff asked to take my dishes away. I complained to the bartender about the state of the fries. He didn't care. I wasn't offered another serving of food to make up for the poor quality of my order or a small credit towards the bill. This place is a bloody joke. Don't bother coming here. Oh! Don't be fooled about the waitresses in short skirts, it still doesn't make up for the restaurant's short comings. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.

Definitely worth it to come here for Happy Hour. The food was really good and quick and the deals on the burgers and drafts during said Happy Hour are too good to pass up. Got the Guiness Beef Burger with some funky waffle looking lattice fries. This was definitely the best burger I've had in awhile, especially in terms of pub food. We had this after finishing a trade show in the area and it was definitely a great way to enjoy and relax for the rest of the day. I'm afraid I'm about to go into a food coma because of it. Too Long - Didn't Read: go here during their happy hour 2-6 and have a Guiness burger and a pint;!

Wheels Barrow

Great exciting original food with large menu, nice staff. Beer oriented but they do have decent wine.
