REVIEWS OF White Spot Gilmore IN Vancouver

Lily Ki

It's like Canadian Denny's accept it actually tastes good. And smash Browns don't forget about the smash Browns because that's really all you need to go there for.

Kelvin Fong

Great food.,I and the family loved it.fish and chips were very very good.in manitoba our white spot is a staple also.i will b back to this location.ever in manitoba come check ours out

Ryan P

You don't expect amazing things from White Spot but this place just comes across as understaffed and apathetic. Was really embarassed as my party was treating me and the wait was 40 min for some cold dishes. They were remade but apparently not very good. The manager did discount 15% but not charging for the problem dishes would have been more significant and more appropriate. Nobody seemed to -really- care so just all around disappointing

Angelo Siglos

All the food is awesome and the staff are very friendly ????

Shelley Anne Shorter

Alright food, very slow service, & extremely filthy tables. Our waitre was quite cocky, but my cousins put him back in his place. We ordered our food which took ages to come, the food was not to our standard at this particular White Spots Resturant. I had ordered the Spot Fish & Chips with extra starter sauce. The fish was nice & flaky, well portion of fish to batter. Though my fries were quite cold & soggy. My Mother & Cousins had ordered the Legendary Burger with Cheeses. They had also asked for extra Coleslaw salad so that they both could share the Salad & for the kitchen to split up the burger & fries in two different plates. Well first the Waiter refused to have the kitchen split up the order into 2 plates. Than he was nasty when we asked him to take back the burger & fries & have the kitchen staff split up the order into 2 separate plates for sharing. The lady manager at this White Spot had to cover the entire bill as she too was embarrassed at her employee's attitude with Customers. That waiter really needs further education & training in Customer Service, how to speak to customers & how not to lose customers at that location.

Food poisoning from eating the Chargrilled Salmon & Seafood Trio at this White Spot location at the end of May. Wild Pacific Sockeye salmon topped with shrimp, scallops & clams in a creamy rosé sauce with arugula & Campari tomatoes. Served over jasmine rice with broccolini. I had had this dish several times before and this time it had too much sauce and it did not seem as fresh or the same quality as previously. That last squishy prawn I ate haunts me still. I was very sick for days, missing 3 days of work and almost going to hospital. Reported to White Spot who were only concerned with preparing themselves for the ensuing health inspection. This used to be a long time weekly family favourite place for dinner. No longer. Beware as I have since been told of people with food poisoning from roast beef sandwiches, coleslaw, and other dishes with sauces from this White Spot. Proceed with caution!

Christopher Sapp

Tempura Fish and Chips was not tempura...one inch of half cooked batter all around. Our waitress took the charge off, gave her a full tip.

Trevor McBride

Gets really busy during breakfast/brunch hours on weekends. Expect a 10 to 15 min wait. Service is still great very friendly servers and yummy food. The sunny start is my favorite breakfast!

Nick Glazer

Service can be a tad slow sometimes, but burgers are always delicious. You just can't go wrong with white spot and the price you pay

Mauricio Barros

Service is just reeeeeeeaaaaallllyyyy sloooooooooowww. If you do not mind waiting up to half an hour to eat, then go for it.

Matthew Roberts

Too slow service. Food took long to come. It would taste good if it was not cold when it was served. That's bad. Usually, White Spot has good service, even when they are busy. However, it seems this is not true for this store. Maybe because they have the drive-in area outside. So, they serve people in the cars and the ones that are inside the restaurant are delayed. Really bad. I've never expect such a poor service at White Spot as I had at this store. I can still choose White Spot, but not this unit, for sure.

Greg Hernandez

Silver all experience was fine, but they really do need to learn how to make rice if I wanted to order a blob of mush I would have ordered mashed potatoes

Peter Powell

At my elementary school we used to get "Hot Lunch" and one of the options was White Spot and I always got the kids burger because it had a pickle, they're still my favourite to this day lol

This Whitespot is in the middle of nowhere, off of Gilmore and Lougheed Highway. It is easily accessible and has marked parking for take out, dine in, and also car hop eat in the car service. I had a Monty burger, salmon burger, and sweet potato fries and the quality of the take out food is exceptional. Packaging is great and there were no greasy bags.

Huey Duong

Always a good time and awesome food at this classic White Spot location. Friendly staff and always a smiling face to greet you. AAA+ awesome!

Mark Giesbrecht

I'd love to rate this place higher, I like the food, but literally the last four times I've gotten takeout here they have messed up my order, mostly things I paid for not included in the bag. Two times they forgot my ceasar salad, and this last time they forgot my diet coke and forgot to put Avacado on our Avacado impossible burger. They really need to get better about organization with takeout orders. Close to 100% error rate is really bad.

Ryan McLeod

Great place to eat with a beautiful Patio Even better servers I highly Recommend

Terry Janzen

First time going to a white spot.... waiting 30 min for a ceaser salad that cost me almost 20.00. Dry chicken...stale garlic toast. First and last time.

Jan M

Did the 'eat in the car' with the long trays. So nostalgic. Great tasting Mediterranean chicken burger. Fantastic service. Thank you Andrew. You should train other people in the service industry. We will be back.

Romi Johnston

I havent been here in a while but wanted to update my review. This white spot location sucks. I had the worst service on fathers day with my kids. Case in point i got in trouble for refilling my own iced tea after 2 servers didnt get the hint and stepped over my empty glass in the middle of the walkway.

will lilley

The place is clean, the food is good, the price is fair, the attendants are polite and helpful and the is a lot of place to park

V. Nand

A very comfortable old style White Spot, probably from 1960s. Consistent food, good quality and reliable service. Always a pleasure.

As someone who works, studies, lives and seeks hospitality improvement in Vancouver and the world, I have to tell the story of yesterday when something that has never happened to me before showed a great example of how to play the restaurant and hospitality game. I went in for breakfast around 8 AM, and I was served by Jacquie (Jacquie I don't know if I'm spelling your name right) and she was always very attentive with her guests, then proceeded to serve me some of the best coffee I've had in YEARS (I'm Venezuelan half Colombian, so trust me I know my coffee well) and then served me a Nat's Breakfast that wasn't certainly a lot in quantity, but boy oh boy the quality was so good I did not care! So as I am half way through my delicious meal, I noticed there was a hair on one of my poached eggs, and I proceeded to notify the server so I would get a new poached egg. Surprise, surprise, the chef took the time to RE-DO THE WHOLE BREAKFAST ORDER AGAIN! Even though I was pretty much half way there, this put a huge smile on my face, and after finishing it off as I was waiting for my bill, the wonderful Jacquie let me know that... I DID NOT HAVE A BILL AT ALL!!! I was so wowed!!! I don't know whose management decision was, but I learned a lot yesterday from that little big gesture, I could not resist but giving my server a well deserved tip. Thanks to the staff and the chef for having such a great consideration, this is how you play this game and I will certainly be back for more. Soon.

Barrett Wilson

Really poor we always come for pickup. They tell you 20 min your lucky if you havevit in 30 min You ask for HOT FRESH FRIES you get old and cold. The dips forcthe yam fries and chicken strips not eve1/2 full in the cuplet. For an average 18.00 per petson for takeout save your money. Do not waste timevor money at this Gilmore location

Luis Flores

Service and food are wonderful. Place is very safe and clean.

Tavis Dunn

Menu changed. Kinda used to the old menu. Waitress in a rush to put our plates down and some fries danced on the table. She apologized. Don't think we will be back for awhile.

Omar Mohammed

Typical White Spot food, but a new addition was a beef brisket burger with BBQ sauce as well as a Pumpkin Pie Shake. We just put our names in and waited in the car until the phone call was made to tell us the table was ready.

Gabriel Dantas

Good food. Ordered chicken wings but no dipping sauce. All good.

Jeffrey Murphy

we went yesterday to try this location out of the rush hour about 9pm. here is what happened: we ordered: kids burger meal. Avocado prawns flat bread chicken Alfredo Chicken pot pie Lasagna Soup special - we got the soup and the flat bread - without the Avocado. - and then we got the chicken pot pie and the Lasagna on time, the chicken pot pie was more runny than what I would like it. - then we got the burger and fries we asked for side ketchup, we never got it. The time the servant brought the Alfredo without the chicken as they have forgot, and just before us leaving we got extra chard piece of chicken breast added on the side, it was very dry and bitter because all of the burnt marks. will I recommend this to anybody, absolutely NO.

Andrea Zotelli

Great food and service!! Peace

Heywood Yablowme

Great car hop service. Food was delicious.

Lambert Tran

Great service...good was excellent...had tomato basil soup and Spot salad...yum..friend had the best chicken pot pie ever..huge flaky crust on top....really good!!????

Mark Atkinson

Great location. Staff are friendly and quick. Was in and out of the restaurant within an hour. Lots of parking.bahahah

Kevin So

I suspect this location is not long for this world. Sitting all by it's lonesome across from a power substation, it's surrounded by encroaching condo towers. This is one of the last locations where you can still get car-hop service. That is to say, order from and eat in your car in a designated spot in the parking lot. It's a BC classic and offers mostly comfort food. The menu is not inspiring or groundbreaking but people don't choose White Spot to try new things. This location is smaller with less seating and I do not think there is seating at the bar. Price is mid-range. Cuisine style is traditional north american.

Vivian Haris

Take a client here and do the Drive In for take out, then go home to eat. Has always been good friendly service, and always great food.

ryan pongracz

Great food, good service. They won't serve mimosas or any alcohol before 10am.

Lauren St John

Food tastes ok but it doesn't make up for the small portions. The prices have noticeably gone up which is understandable but I would not consider their menu items good value for the money. They do have things like endless fries and drinks but I personally don't like filling up on fries and pop. The only thing that is priced decently for what you get is the pirate pak.

Alan King Bowden

Had a small group and we decided to go to White spot. Staff and service were excellent and took very good care of us. I had the legendary burger with green salad. It was pretty good, salad was fresh and quite tasty. I meant to ask if it was bottomless like the fries but I got full so it didn't really matter. All the components were there for the burger yet somehow it just didn't taste quite the same or as good as the outlet on kingsway. Not bad just not quite what I was expecting

Jennifer Mileta

Came here tonight for dinner with my bf. Ordered the shrimp gyoza to share, a burger for him and salad for myself. Appy came late and we waited nearly an hour for our mains. The staff was dealing with a large table and never acknowledged us once to check on us. We never got our drinks refilled or told why the food was taking so long. We asked two other servers what the hold up was and didn’t get an answer. Food finally came and we had to leave so we asked for the bill. Waitress came over and explained that she got the timing wrong. We were not only starving by that point but late to meet friends for a show. We asked again for the bill and was told the manager would come talk to us. Manager came and compted our meal. It was a nice gesture but too late for us by that point. We had to eat our food quickly and leave. They never provided refills or even ketchup for the fries. I understand being busy but to not even ask if we wanted refills? Or even to explain why our meals were so late in coming out? It will be a while before we go back.

Jackie S

We ordered take out New Year’s Day and the burger was cold and fries soggy. This is the second time this has happened, disappointing as we were craving a good burger.

Jodi Jackman

Food was meh, had better at White Spots. Ordered onion rings received only 3.

linda nguyen

White Spot is no longer family friendly. Prices are appallingly high for the type of restaurant that it is. The menu looks fancier but the food is still the same. If I wanted to pay that much for a burger or fish and chips, I'd go to a better quality place.

John Wiggins

The service at this location is appalling. My wife and I stopped eating in here because they dont deserve tips. We order take out every now and then. We are always thoroughly disappointed with how we are given a time for our food to be ready and without fail we end up waiting the same amount of time at the restaurant that has been quoted for it to be ready. Double the time every time. The kitchen is filthy. Step it up guys.

Lynette Martinez

Slow in service. Meal was alright, but during these times, nice to be able to feel safe and sit down for a meal.

Graham McVeigh

Sandwich tasted funny,waitress was nice. Too expensive for the quality of food. Low quality fare.

Peter Cross

I was disappointed with the chicken ceasar wrap. Little white meat and cut into small pieces. It has changed its presentation.

Tomas Wittrup

This location brings back the most memories for me having dinner with my family. I always order the Legendary platter with lettuce, tomatoes, and raw onions with a classic plate (side caesar salad, and zoo sticks). You can get a western plate as well witch is a side caesar salad, and onion rings. Service was on point, and food was satisfying.

Bert Lee

Went for Breakfast with my parents. Food was really good, and didn't take long to get. The service was outstanding...Sandra was very polite, helpful and always around...she was great.

MsLeslie Santos

Things are getting a little more expensive but not much better in terms of quality. Take out ordering is always nice to have at some restaurants

cody white

Food - ordered pasta, burger and calamari. I would say.. Don't order anything fried other than fries.. Squid was separated from batter and it was not crispy. Service - okayish. Not excellent but nothing special either. Atmosphere - casual atmosphere. many seniors and families with young kids visit the place.

TE Alba B

Went on Sunday, only a short wait but worth it. Good service we had the waffles with chicken and an egg with Hollandaise sauce. I had a blueberry milkshake which was just the best. Serving size was perfect, lots of milkshake. Left completely satisfied and full.

Liz Moran

Fantastic food & service! As well, our server went above and beyond to hold on to the sunglasses I left behind for a week while we enjoyed our Whistler vacation. Best burgers & shakes we’ve enjoyed in a long time!!!

Alyssa Saran

Typical American food. Nothing very special, at prices I find a little high for what you get. Seems very popular to the locals. They may try using smaller plates so there is less white space around the food. I had a burger with salad. Was nothing more or less than I expected.

Jenn Faccin

I like While Spot for brekkie but be warned prices have gone up significantly along with limited menus. Staff was very good.

Evangeline Dalaya

The food here is good, but the service needs work. I came here for lunch with a friend around 2pm. I know the servers saw us as my eyes were in direct contact with theirs, I'm just wondering why it took over 10 minutes to get us seated especially since it was kinda slow. The wait time at the service wasn't much better either. However, the upside of this place is the food. I ordered their Brunch burger, beef patty, lettuce, tomato, onion ring, fried egg and sauce. Wow! What a brunch burger it was, tasted like breakfast and lunch made love and had a baby. That burger would be the child of that love making. The fries could have been better though, but anyways I'm glad that I ordered extra fries for us when we made the order as we didn't have to wait for more. Another thing that disappoints me about these types of restaurants is the price for soft drinks, $3.50 for unlimited refills isn't bad, but do make sure you do get refills otherwise it's definitely not worth getting it.

Roop

Ordered the veggie tortilla brunch. It was SO BLAND. Like they didn't even add salt to it? I had to douse the thing in hot sauce to even taste something. Not for me, sorry, but if that's your kind of thing then you should definitely go here! Other than that, the service is great and they have wonderful patio seating when the weather is really nice!

jun oribiana

Good food. Their clam chowder is good. And they usually have specials on.

Danny Yoo

Delicious and service it's excellent.

Waited for sometime then we seated ourselves .. had to ask for water... Food was good, service ...wasn't impressed and wasn't even busy ...2:30 on a Monday

William Ma

Excellent Service, fast & efficent, very tasty turkey & avacado wrap. Omg I have never had a breakfast that tasted this good. I would definately order it again. Waitress Colleen was superb. She was a little distracted in the very beganning where I had to repeatedly ask for napkins, & more Coffee, but quickly realized she was totally by herself & 4 tables to serve. Hats off it was very pleasant at this Whitespot, will go again.

Juan Gonzalez

Personally I love White Spot! We had a nice attentive server who told us he has been working there for 15 years! Wow! I ordered a burger as i had not had a triple o in ages and it was delish! Bun was so soft. Burnaby location nice and old school. Would definitely go back

Tracy

The service was pretty slow, and the food came out a tiny bit cold, but the interior of the white spot was better than some of the others

Albert Lo

Everything was great service food especially our waitress sandra

ashkan alinejad

Server at our visit was not very pleasant. Not really genuine. Food is ok. Other locations are better - food and service-wise.

Bob Johnson

They still have the Car Hop Service. Amazing. But on this visit we went inside. Food great, Service wonderful. I had a coffee and the server was very considerate and offered several top ups. I could see the manager keeping an eye on things and being helpful to the team. I love seeing this kind of work ethic. A great experience and the Blue Berry Pie so tasty. Thank you.

R Gene

Food and service is great. Speed isn't the best here but if you are here for breakfast on a nice Saturday morning, what's the rush?

DG

Ive always liked this location. Service is always good and the food is always satisfying. However stay away from the take out deserts. They are equivant to a same size.

James Ferris

Had the legendary burger on a gluten free bun, not bad but not as good as I've had before. The zoo sticks seemed a little undercooked, but passable. Service for coffee was good but my hot water didn't get filled again...hmm... because it's free?

Martin

The staff js alwsys friendly. We stopped for breakfast around peak time in the morning and the waitresses was quick to take our order. Food took a moderate time which was understandable giving how busy they were. Toast is always slightly burnt but they took care of it as soon as i said something.

A Sabbagh

I usually get takeout here but I have dined in before. All the servers are super nice and service is pretty consistent and good. There’s a kind server who has been helping me with my takeout orders in the early mornings before work. I …

Ken Openshaw

The food was tasteless and the presentation was not even average, for $20 burger I was expecting more flavour and appealing presentation. The customer service was below average.

Jennifer Kleinsteuber

Th is location has lots of free parking, and is usually busy. Lots of booth seating and the service is usually good. Typical White spot menu, but always tasty and good value. Covid protocols are good. Some really lovely servers.

Kelly Bush

Slow service , even it seems not too busy Food took so long to come I thought all white spot has a good service but not this store

Andrew McBride

Service was great ... But food has sure gone downhill. Won't b going to White Spot again - any White Spot.

joanna wilson-rhodes

Post COVID lockdown. This White Spot is now open. Social distancing style. The staff is all PPE'd and the service was good. Paper menus get tossed after each guest leaves. Bathrooms clean. The whole place felt real clean. I ordered the beefsteak hash as did my date and we both really enjoyed our meal. Delicious and filling. Nice experience. Great job White Spot Gilmore

These folks know how to poach an egg.

Christiane Boyce

This place is great for old people. Don't stop in for a beer. No bar. That said, I had a beer, had great service but sat at an awkward table for one. Payment was quick and the environment, well, plain, good for old people. Parking is a challenge (so is leaving parking) so plan ahead a bit. I'll go back with my gran for sure.

Shannon Adams

A nice restaurant to bring your family. Large parking area. Go there while you can as their land will be sold (if not already sold) to condo developer soon.

Andrea Spring

Worst White Spot I've ever been to. Servers constantly forgot our orders and barely offer any water refills during the time. Food are standard, however the service made the whole experience very unpleasant.

Kiryoku Manzi

Great chicken caesar salad and excellent service!

Trevor Wilson

Went for a weekend brunch. It was pretty busy. The food was alright. Lots of old folks here. It feels very cozy. The waitress was very busy that she wasn't able to come around much at all. It made really hard for us to ask for the bill.

garmdian MelonKing

Ordered skip the dishes though them. Cant follow simple instructions, no utensils and their $11.50 cauliflower were 5 below average sized bites.

Camila Tavares

Good food. Nice staff. Very attentive. Typical White Spot fare.

isabella roosevelt

Always great here staff is super good if something is wrong they will make it right

Justin Kirkwood

Food was good the fish and chips came out super oily and cold along side the fries, manager seened he was trying to drive customers in and out fast in order to get more people through, another time at close he made some inappropriate hand actions towards one of the waiters

Kourosh Misaghi

It is our 1st time to try, food was amazing and staff was very helpful and nice , they mix a good variety of healthy food with meals , i strongly recommend this place ! Photo is for our dessert

M Whitton

Burger was burnt. Milkshake was to thin.service was my bad but nothing special. I asked for the milkshake to be remade thicker and they did remake my shake, but they didn't remake the other shake. When I asked for water they only brought us one glass. I was with a friend. But server was nice and the food was okay other wise.

Thomas Campbell

I was in a rush so I called to preorder food so that we can have the food upon arriving. When i arrive i am left waiting at the front for 10 minutes. Then they didnt even want to seat us. Very disrespectful to an elder being with me. Then we had to ask for water. Is it so hard to be a server these days!!!!!

Craig R

Service was good, waiter was good the food was not good very salty fries and the chicken strips were not tasty. I make tasterier at home.

James Buonassisi

Been going here since I was a kid, now we bring our kid here. It may not be fine dinning, but it's a mark up from the Boston Pizzas and other franchise out there.

Dawid Spamer

Food was good but the food took quite sometime to arrive. This is a common theme every time I visit this location

Tia Malialis

Great service by a very friendly server. Food was tasty and hot. Covid checks and protocol in place. A-1

David Ramos

Service from our waitress was great today. We had 2 young ones and she was patient, attentative, and friendly. Thanks.

Eatman

Had lunch and it was really tasty. Very accommodating with minor changes requested to my meal and they got it right. Good service.

Stanislav Stankevskiy

One the nicer White Spots in the area. Good service and food. I would recommend the Bacon cheddar cheese burger there, it was delicious!!

Stan Yee

Quality food. Good service. Family friendly service. Good ambiance be that for a date or a family celebration or watch a sports game. Never disappoints

Marcia Dryburgh

Solid White Spot! Love how there's always free parking available in the back of the restaurant

Stan S

Is it just me or are the portions getting smaller? Not as much coleslaw on the burger platter

Cenny Husky

Bad service and bad food, their famous triple O burger was dry and burnt. Disappointed. Waiter was lazy and kept on bring other people orders to our table by mistake......

Firas Alwakeel

I was at this restaurant for dinner and was so disappointed by the fact that the restaurant was approximately 27 degrees inside. I had decided to go, as this is one of my family's regular restaurants, to escape the heat. Unfortunately even after the manager was asked by 3 staff to turn on the AC and he finally did, it was not working. I ended up feeling sick from the heat and had to pack up the meal and go home. I will think twice before visiting this restaurant again!

Mara Bigalky

We showed up unannounced with 14 people on a Friday night, but they made special accommodations to seat us anyway. Excellent service, good food!

Anita Mutti

I like to take my youngest son here for our weekly date nights. He orders the salmon burger and I loooove the mushroom cheddar burger. Cool booths for sitting in and the wait staff is efficient but not too in your face. My pet peeve is when waiters are always asking how everything is and you have a mouth full of food or are in the middle of a sentence. That doesn't happen here. Thank you Whitspot ????

Victor Li

What can I say? It's White spot so it's always consistent and the service is great. It's one of their smaller locations so if you were bringing a larger group I would call ahead. The impossible burger is a major improvement over the beyond pattie, if you're into that sort of thing

Ben Cribb

Their Turkey dinner is the bomb. And it seems other people love it as well since I had to wait a 15 minutes for my pickup order but understandable. Love their pumpkin pie as well. And with their current promo with their gift cards, it makes it easier to become a return customer.

Sash

Ordered online, they forgot my shake and gave me a burger sader then a McDonald's dollar menu special. Got a refund through Doordash, but the food was so awful had to make others aware.

dave ooo

We went to the carhop and it was great

Corey Reynolds

The Humboldt squid plate is amazing. I hope it stays forever

Dwight Wilmarth

A good spot for hungry families on the road or looking to save a buck or two. The service is very fast, unless there is a crowd. The waiters and waitresses are polite and very understanding of mental disabilities. The kid's menu is very child-friendly, too.

LMN 1984

I'm not sure how hard it is to read a slip of paper to make sure orders are correct, but the last 2 or 3 times I've come here to get take out. Something has been missing or wrong. Tonight, they forgot the fries entirely. I'm surprised they remembered the rest of the meal. Congratulations to your staff for being illiterate. Will not be returning, and I will make sure no one I know goes to this location. Should have spent the extra 5-10 minutes to go to the Market Crossing location. At least they can read.

Pat Hutton

Same menu, experience, and taste as most other Whitespots. However, this location is just a bit older than other Whitespots. For example, the paint on the tables were a bit chipped and the interior lighting was inconsistent. I would love if this location would receive a renovation in the near future!

Mark Holloway

Good burgers. Nice atmosphere. Expect to wait in line a bit before getting seated.

Nadean Burkett

Their coffe has refill option ????

Elizabeth Chang

White spot food nice staff

Gail Marek

Nice cozy cafe in a convenient location. Fast service and delicious food.

Zarya Sora

As a former White Spot employee , I must say , “What happened with the great service?” Once the waitress came and took my order I never saw her again , not once did she come by the table , somebody else brought the order out . She kept walking by and never noticed me until I had my coat on and debit card in hand . I paid and she looked at the machine with a blank stare. No Service means No Tip and it also means that I won’t be back . That location needs some new , fresh , vibrant staff. Great Food with no happy friendly service. See you at another location maybe . Cheers CT

Adam Burton - Antoniuk

Food is good and waitress friendly and i enjoyed the experience.

Miriam Molinero

Excellent Nat's Hearty Breakfast, the sausages they use are awesome! Great service

Karima Kara

This was a very pleasant experience. With white spot, every experience is different depending on location and who is working. Today our food and service were impeccable. I still gave only 4 stars based on the restaurant as a whole. It's always a quick go to for the whole family and if you don't go expecting too much it is satisfying. Perhaps some of the appeal is the nostalgia factor, as I have very fond memories of pirate packs as a kid.

Craig Quinn

Made us wait an hour for a burger and fries. My recommendation is if you are that busy with your takeout orders maybe be upfront about it. Let people know incase they need to be somewhere by a certain time.

Kevin Bond

Server was great! Food was delicious and great happy hour deals!

margaret hurrell

First time in my life I thought I should have gone to McDonald's. Burgers were awful.

Mr Dave

Bottomless fries and hash browns for our brunch. Clean place and the service people are very polite and personable. Laura was our waitress and is very proficient during morning brunch rush. Multitasker to the extreme. Give the girl a raise. I have not been to this location 15 yrs at least. Also it is nice to still drive ins.

Rozmin A

Went there one time. The hostess seated us in the sun room part where I watched a female kitchen worker outside smoking and spitting following by throwing up. We left right away and never went back. I called and spoke with a manager who said he was going to send me a gift card in the mail; gave him my address and never did receive the gift card. I tell everyone I know about my experience here. Disgusting

Ash Rosstrom

Is great place to go get dinner lunch and supper and really great staff and family friendly place would recommend anybody to go there

Dennis A

Hi, this evening my GIft Card was refused at the Lougheed and Gilmore location and I am very frustrated. I was trying to place an online order and could not find anywhere to input my Gift Card information. So I tried calling this location at least 5-6 times and each time the phone kept ringing until it timed out and disconnected. I was trying to call to ask what to do, the entire way from my work to White Spot. The only reason I ordered tonight at all was due to the fact we had a Gift Card. So, if I had known they would have rejected that payment method, we would have ordered very differently. I also found it very strange we could not order JUST the burger online and we HAD to order a combo/meal. Not only that, but while all this was being sorted out and discussed, I was quite literally waiting out in the cold. So not only was it freezing out, but I was also tired and hungry after a long day of work and I was put in a very awkward position of having to choose to either cancel my order on the spot, and then proceeding to have to search for something else last minute to buy on my way home or go home and only begin the cooking process, which would have extended the time between when we could eat... OR, conversely, what ended up happening is that I ended up feeling forced to put money on my credit card, against my will. On the back of the GC, it clearly states "Protect this card like cash. Present this card at participating White Spot Restaurants in Canada and use for payment of food and beverages.". So if it is equivalent to cash, how can it be legally refused? I totally feel dejected and embarrassed at the situation, and truly feel like this experience has has soured my joy for White Spot.

Best food we had gotten from a whitespot in a while. We will be coming back to this location!

Ordered delivery of baby ribs with side of French fries and coleslaw. Baby ribs were delicious and would be happy to have those again, but French fries were super disappointing. Half the box of little ends and pieces overfried and burnt, things that usually are left at the bottom, yet it was served as full meal in our case. The fries also arrived cold and dryish, doesn't seem to be made to order or anytime close to ordering (restaurant is only 1km away from our house, so can't blame the weather or distance).

Anje Skomorowski

today we went to white spot on lougheed hwy. and met the cruelest manager we have ever seen.his name is matt and he was so belittling to his staff that we ended up leaving.the poor kids were working so hard and he just kkept pushing and kicking them while they were down.i will never go there again simply because of matt

Babs Ben

Good food variety and quality. Friendly service.

Johnny Tesoro

Great food and great service! Good job white spot. Your going to become my regular from now on!

Kayvon Motamed

Great friendly, Courteous Staff, excellent food, overall Wonderful Service ????

Cornelius van Heerden

Good food great service, the only thing is the new high chairs that they got. They are not comfortable to use with babies.

Kurt Ergen

Kids really love coming here, the Pirate Paks, and that they get ice cream without really having to ask. If the kids can have a happy, easy meal, the parents are happy too.

Gail M

The service was really good ????

Jay Young

I've never had a bad experience at a white Spot in my life, this was the first time for me at this location and my wife pulled out an ALREADY EATEN chicken wing from her Quesadilla. All they did was take that one item off the bill. Totally grossed out and will NEVER return to this location. Absolutely insane.

Jeff & Carlene Stott

Good service & friendly staff. Levi and Laura were very helpful eventhough it was a busy day.

Ynod NO

Great place during covid. We used the car hop service!

Voyager [*]

The hostess was friendly and waitress did her job adequately. The food... I dont understand North American standards but it's a poor value and it seems to consistent with chains like these. I ordered the Mexicali tacos with prawn. Very small portion for a moderate price of $14. I know there are costs involved such as staff, insurance, utilities etc etc.. but I find it a bit much for the portion. Yes fries are bottomless but so is pop... just a simple carbohydrate.

Mystie Cee

Good food. Ok service

Virginia Clares

Painfully slow. Waited over half an hour for food and when it arrived the chicken fettuccine was cold. Very subpar - pasta noodles were limp and soggy. Sauce was watery and quite tasteless. I've had this dish before at other locations, and it's usually superb. The manager did apologize and take off 15 percent, however the whole ordeal was pretty disappointing.

Daniel N

White Spot junkie. Love the BC Burger, think they call it the bacon cheddar burger or something but I call it the BC burger as it was called that when they just had White Spot local to BC. Service is good, food is awesome and free fries are hard to beat.

Zayed Mohamed

The service was a bit slow, but the servers themselves weren't the issue, it was the kitchen. Food was fine, the usual White Spot fare, restaurant was clean and bathrooms were clean and in good condition.

Brandon Gill

Always a good place to go for a good meal with good friends!!! Menu variety is still good even during COVID.

Elie Jahshan

Dine in

Brian Wong

Food was okay a bit pricy for what it was and service got worse as the meal went on. It was okay at best. The one good thing was seating was fast and portions were big so it wasnt all bad. Overall if you have no other option or price ranges come here but if you have more options go somewhere else.

Hitesh Patel

"Nostaligia" would be my way of saying that this place has been here for many years. I haven't been to a White Spot (particularly this location) in many years and it looks the same since. Friendly staff, but it did take our food awhile to come out. Unlimited fries or smashed potatoes that comes with quite a few entrees. You will come out full.

Howard Calpas

Great fresh food and service !

Pavel Leung

Take Out. Chicken strips X 4 with NO DIP Caesar Salad was a small handful of lettuce with dressing. 2 croutons. Are you guys kidding? WASTE OF $12.99

Selena Robert

Food was good as always and server very attentive but location is getting very dated. Parking access and layout also could be much improved.

Barry Packham

White spot is always awesome! Been a fan since l was a kid.when you could get a ????and fries in a boat for a buck 50. Food was good so was service. Five star baby!!

Allen Chan

The parking lot is bigger than the restaurant maybe that's why it's so slow and crowded. One of the not so good White Spots mainly because it's so slow.

Joel C

Clean, friendly and good service..White Spot is a great staple place to eat. Always, consistent.

Ruby Lin

Enjoyed being able to eat outside on the patio and my Monty mushroom burger was delicious!

Atif Khan

Great customer service, very friendly staff. The place is dated and lights flicker. The food is good.

Marwan Pharaon

The food was amazing. We had a mushroom gruyere burger and it was delicious. Good service!

Janjan

Getting seated was a chore, but service otherwise was good and food great.

Alison Crowe

Service was good but not the food. Had a breakfast wrap. Ate half, barely, and left the rest.

Kc a

This is my White Spot preferred location, probably one of the oldest one in BC. While the location has a huge parking, the space inside is limited compared to new locations like Kensington (still in Burnaby). During my last 4 or 5 visits I have noticed that the temperature of the burgers was not ideal, this may be due to a change in the kitchen but overall the service is good.

Bahar

I get take out here. I remember when I was little I would do the car service here. It’s been a while but I wouldn’t let me kids eat in the car nowadays. My only issue with takeout vs eat in is... the fries are bottomless and the salad is plentiful when you eat in. I took 2 bites of my salad and this is all I have left in the box. I would have taken a picture first but I was hungry. Anyways you can analyze the picture and see that the parchment paper is dry and there’s no moisture marks on the box (which is really small). But it’s unavoidable as I have kids to watch as well as a sick mother. Besides that, the food is decent and has a dedicated parking lot. (The Kensington one I find packs more but it’s a bit farther and sometimes parking there is horrible).

Michael Sinitsa

This is our ultimate family addiction (specifically the Triple-O burger aka the Legendary). We go there up to three times a week, and it's the first restaurant our family members visit after returning from a trip! Wholesome food, friendly staff, great value.

Janean Brajcich

Love this location. Service and food are always good each time we visit. Just have to get in early if you want to avoid the lineups.

Jo L

Friendly staff, helpful and prompt. Food, tasty and presented inviting.

Nick fararis

Food was great, decent price, amazing burgers. Staff friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Josephine Tung

Good service, good food, its a whitespot

Kayce Gregory

Breakfast was good. 3.49$ for coffee but you have free refills & free refills for homemade potato!

Ginnette Creelman

Service was very nice. Dry ribs were missing meat and a bit fatty. Club house had very little ingredients. For what is charged they should look at their quantity and quality levels

Alikhan Lalji

Great family friendly staff and the food is always great. I like bringing my daughter here as they have a lot of children's items that she can pick from. They were also pretty nice about getting a high chair and the mess that my daughter always makes. She also got some crayons, which is always nice.

Pillow Bunny

Bought blueberry pies to go and they wouldn't give me whipped cream citing health concerns which made no sense. Had to buy my own.

Duster mcdouble

Not bad. Lots of loud kids during the weekend. Family restaurant. Don't come if you're hungover and the shrill voices of kiddies annoy the hell out if you. They also don't serve regular hashbrown past 11am.

Eddy Gooch

Ate the monty mushroom burger wrapped in lettuce, no bun, and fries. Was up ALL night vomiting and running to the toilet. Awful. Service was good. Can't fault that but they definitely need to do something about their food handling and storage.

Clint. Renshaw

Good service, decent food but over priced for what you get.

Ron J. Panthaky

One rainy Sunday morning, I was driving around listening to Miles Davis taking in the sights of Lougheed Highway and the exceptionally beautiful construction sites as they turn the area into a generic concrete jungle. Slowly approaching Gilmore, a pang of hunger hit my gut. As if a sign from the BC God's a White Spot appeared - taking it as a sign to visit because A) I was hungry. B) I'd never been. C) See B and A. I parked my car and entered the tired looking relic of the 60s homage to the automobile centric way of thinking. Sat by some acne covered kid into a corner of nowhere, where even the loudest of sins could be ignored. I exclaimed my desire to move seats and (as a solo diner, this rarely happens) I was moved to a windowed booth. I was stoked! My server was so utterly friendly and so lovely. The rest of them seemed a bit a "done" with their jobs and people. But whatever... I ordered some food and I shocked and surprised by being served essentially a plate of grease, not cheap grease either. Not really much taste or quality to be found on the plate - felt there was healthier nutrition to be found on the cutlery. I was massively disappointed. I doubt I'll ever go to a White Spot again after this meal. However the service was friendly and very unVancouver. So I may return just for that

ACCP

Had a great breakfast yesterday. Service was top notch and our waitress was very friendly.

TJ Harmony

Outstanding service and professionalism at British Columbia's premier fine casual dining. Awesome selection and variety of ocean wise seafood and farm fresh ingredients. Reasonable prices and generous portions make White Spot a terrific value for a family dinner out. Dine inside, take out and classic drive up service are all available. Conveniently located and easily addressable what are your waiting for? Why not experience the best of BC thought?

Michael (Culmination of me)

Had the best zoo-sticks hands down. Bring me more zoo-sauce

Steven Tierney

Did the Car Service. Pleasant staff, Delicious food! One of the best burgers in Vancouver is found @ White Spot!

Robert Cudmore

Good, reasonably priced food, and mostly good service. Food is habitually slow to be received at the table from the kitchen. Warm & friendly staff.

Randy L-H

Good quick service in the drive in during the pandemic.

Dan Ehresman

Highschool cafeteria breakfast food at best. Eggs Benedict is a simple dish. Hollandaise on poached egg, with a protein on a bread. I don't want to be mean but this felt like the cheapest version with lowest quality that money could buy for $16. 2 eggs, 1 English muffin, sauce and 2 small slices of... Ham? And 6 crushed deep fried potato wedges with a different cook on each one. I get it... You're supposed to be cheap fast food... But you're not cheap and McDonald's still has you beat in quality. And price as well I guess. The two stars is for the fantastic servers... But really you deserve 5 stars.

leo marco urmaza

Food quality wasn't great, but it's family friendly if you're looking for a quick meal. Lots of free parking.

I don't usually write reviews but this location has been going down hill over the last 2 years and last night was awful. After ordering take out last night it's safe to say we wont be supporting this location anymore. …

Dilan Sunthareswaran

Good overall, but you can tell there are a lot of new servers. Seasoned staff were very busy and doing the best they could, new staff (understandably) seemed to be a bit clueless but unfortunately, also seemed to not really be trying too hard. Food was still excellent so I guess at least the kitchen staff are quite experienced.

Cariboo ian

Unfortunately I think this white spot is shutting down.We ordered a legend with sauteed onions and blueberry cheesecake Last time ordering. To the staff ....start looking for new work ! As ta la vista !

Excellent service, clean and very inviting to go for breakfast a branch or dinner. Our server was great!!

Jacob von frankinstone 1111

Awful!! Waited 20 minutes after being seated before anyone came to table. After a further 25 minutes, food arrived not hot and not as ordered. Very disappointed.

Chris C

Dependably good. Really friendly attentive wait staff.

Leah Bolton

Typically White Spot. There are nicer looking ones around but, food wise this is one of my favourites. Never been disappointed by what comes out of the kitchen here.

Sandy

This place was mediocre at best. There is NOTHING special here that would make me want to come back again. Fine for a stop just to have a bite but not worth purposely coming to. [Pro:] - Nice staff - Good options - Amount of milkshake is worth it's price [Con:] - Forgot my drink - Did not refill our water even though we placed our empty water cups edge of the table - Burger patties are small and unseasoned - Some flavours did NOT go well together - Food quality and amount not worth the price

Nick Ferris

Honestly, this White Spot just looks so depressing. From the sorta outside diner look, to the semi low light interior. It's like they wanted to do that fancy low light thing like Earls or Cactus Club, when really it kinda just looks like they didn't pay their electricity bills so they're getting their power cut at any moment hence the dimmed lights. I would put this as "average" for White Spot. The Oakridge Mall one is bomb though.

Dylan Couper

Lynn Monroe

Ordered the worst burger I have ever seen. Mushy bun, tasteless patty, and a dab of sauce. I don't know why people come here.

Mormodra

Not very pleased, down visiting from Yukon, took my cousin for a Thank you supper for having us stay with him.Only after having drinks served and then hors-d'ouvres were we told they have no Steak, Porkchops, Fettuccini and Rice available to serve. Being told before ordering would have been more appropriate. Then after having a lesser meal we were graciously offered a free desert in compensation. After ordering dessert we were told the Manager only offered one on the house. I declined! Yep I will go back!!

canada ian

Wouldn't give us a table for 5 when the other people were just drinking! We wanted to order food and drinks and they wouldn't offer is an option so we left!

Travis Lin

Great breakfast! Wait service was really good. We’ll be back again! Thanks ????

Tyler Hjorthoy

I’ve been coming to is location since I was a kid. It was where my father would take my brother and I. Since my fathers passing we come here to celebrate every now and then. It’s unfortunate the front of house lady looked bitter on this day and wasn’t very personable at all. Not just to us but to people who came in after us. Our server however was lovely.

suga

The food can be a hit or miss. If you let the staff know that you're dissatisfied for any reason, they will accommodate your request. I frequent one of the locations on a regular basis, for either eat-in or take-out, and the take-out gives you a discount if you create an online pick-up account.

John Milton

This is my second time at this location. I've noticed the service is very slow. We weren't even greeted with a hello when we walked in. The hostess was there and seen us but walked away into the restaurant for whatever reason. After taking down my name I asked if there was a wait and she said no, they only needed to set some tables up. Almost 10 minutes later we were seated. Our waitress didn't come to our table for 5-10 minutes. This location should have more staff working the floor if they can't serve customers in a more timely manner. Also, the limited time personal size blueberry pie is not a pie. They should rename it as a fresh blueberry tart. That is a much better description because the blueberries are raw.

Michael Lui

Eating in is wonderful. Take out was horrible. 2 orders of ribs over cooked. Burgers were extremely greasey and patties over cooked.

Good Food. Not bad service

Joy

Waffles were amazing and waitress was very helpful and friendly.

Clint Morrow

The portions were small which was unusual for white spot but maybe that's the new standard and the prices have gone up of course like everyone else, the problem is the portions were so small. The service wireless probably the worst I've had at a white spot!

Denise Stauffer

Got a burger, tasted pretty good. Never been a fan of the fries and the pop seems to not have enough carbonation. Service could be a bit friendlier.

isaac kwok

Found a shady spot to park so ordered my favourite monty mushroom combo. Its been a while since i indulged myself like this so i had forgotten how big their burgers are. ????. I started with the fries and coleslaw and got full so packed the burger back up and headed for home . Going to warm that burger up in the oven and have it for a late supper. Yum ???? Car service is take out only but hey you can still sit there and eat in the car. The dining room is open , social distancing practised here . Be polite and enjoy your meal. ????

Mark Rademaker

I have fond memories from the 70's here. Eating in the car with dad was always so exciting. Years later it's still a treat.

Keith Martin

Busy restaurant with quality food. New young employees trained well. Very polite and friendly ????

Sunny L

We've come to this White Spot many times before and have never had a problem, which is why this experience was quite a disappointment. After our food was delivered, we received next to no service. At no point did anyone ask us how our food was. And after 20mins of our glasss being empty, and sitting on the edge of the table, we finally had to call out to a waitress for refills. Not to mention it took another 20 to 25 mins before we had to call to a waitress for the bill, with our plates at the edge of the table. I would be more forgiving if the restaurant had been busy, but it definitely was not. The table directly behind us was given perfectly fine service, as well as those in front of us. Needless to say we felt totally invisible and ignored.

Francis Li

Rafael our server is very accommodating. Glad they have updated the menu, now i have more reasons to come and try the our new items.

Patricia Sheppard

the worst white spot me and my wife ever went to. after eating one of their onion rings my wife had to run to the bathroom to throw up. I felt sick later that day and also threw up all of their food. Do not recommend, stay away from the onion rings.

Joseph Liang

Always great food, drinks and service. Highly recommended!!

Linda Fox

Burgers not juicy! Char broiled patty can be well cooked and not dry!! Figure it out!

Teresa McDonald

Slowest service ever. 20 minutes and still counting for pirate pack ice cream........ Entres also took way too long to come out. Tssted average... cinsistent run of the mill whote spot fare...

Nick (Name)

Went to the white Spot on Lougheed Highway in Burnaby with my sister. Had to give our names and was told it was about a 10 minute wait. We sat in the waiting area.Turns out they crossed out our names and 3 other customers who came in after us were seated right away. Very unprofessional staff at White Spot. They did not even apologize. If you whant good food and service, WhiteSpot is the wrong restaurant for you. Better off at McDonald's than there.

Ace

First time at this WhiteSpot. Had a lovely dinner. Staff were fast, friendly and efficient. The restaurant was well maintained, however still had the old style dinner layout which is not particularly my cup of tea. Yet if you're looking for some old WhiteSpot nostalgia, this is your spot ;-)

tiger 77

Dec 24th, 2014 - we were seated in a side hall area that had 4 tables. We were the first seated there, then the table behind my son had 2 seated, the table behind me had 4 seated. We put in our orders first. Then a 3rd person joined the 2. After 20 mins the 2 were serve, then a few mins later the 4 were served, and the 3rdgouy who joined the 2 was served. After about 10 more mins we finally got the guy that took our order and asked where our order was. He cam back and said because it was so complicated (were talking eggs here),it took longer. That was a joke as the 3 guys behind my son ordered the exact same thing. So we finally got our meals, then we were asked if we needed anything else, we asked for more coff (hadn't had a refill yet), and another glass of ice tea. The coffee arrived the iced tea didn't, Then the server xcame back and asked if anything was missing - I pointed out the iced tea. Tha absolute worst experience ever at a White Spot - Never ever will we go to that location again!!!! If I could give you a 1/4 star I would!

Marilyn Cox

Much better experience than last time I visited. We got great service and food was served hot and fresh. Clean family environment.

mike banducci

The food was average. My waiter however, was more elusive than Bigfoot and disappeared completely by the time I was finished.

Medox 1

This is the best of the White Spots in Burnaby. Service is quick. It’s a White Spot so the food isn’t going to blow your mind but they give it a good try. Kudos to them for keeping the orders flowing during peak periods. Prices are still reasonable and the potatoes are endless.

Hot chocolate 123

Awesome service... The waiter went the extra mile the whole time..it was like he was reading our minds..I feel bad that I forgot his name to give him a shout out but he made our experience fun????...The food was good to????

Trudy Pal

Reliably good food and service. It's White Spot, you're not going there on your first date to make an impression but it's good for a quiet(ish) dinner with the family.

Service

I have loved White Spot since I was a young girl. I have to say though that this was not a great dine in experience. From the first interaction to the last with our server it was flat. I was served a beverage that was not full and it was never refilled. I was also served cold french fires as my order sat ready for close to 5 mins before our server brought our food out. I will not return to this location again. I am very unhappy with the service, one of my friends has a gluten allergy and wanted to order a gluten free bun for her burger only to be told that it would be cooked in the same toaster as the wheat buns, instead they gave her a very sloppy lettuce wrap. My Monty Mushroom Burger had the flavor i love but it was cold and the bread soggy.

Only 4 cars in parking lot me and my family stood at front to be seated over 15 minutes off we go to ABC family restaurant great service and food all the time

Jessica Millman

Good food except I had to ask that my fries be hot, not room temperature. They brought more.

Christine Livingstone

Love this location. It's very convenient to get to. Service was great and the food was great quality for the price. I really enjoy going here for brunch on the weekends. It's also great for family dinners.

Frank Pepper

Absolutely horrible service, food served cold after taking extremely long for a burger and fries. And when we send it back the new fresh burger bun is burnt! How bad can it get when the most basic menu items are a seemingly insurmountable challenge? I could go on about the lack of service from wait staff who treat you as if they forgot about your entire table but if your are still interested in this white spot then it’s on you.

Jude Therrien

Food is a little overpriced, but their milkshakes are amazing

Ana Delgado

It was aiggggggght food wise, took awhile to get in aprox 30 when told 10. but our server Melanie was such a sweet heart ❤️

Leo Sieczka

I've been a customer for 30 years everytime I've been here it's been amazing but today I ordered a legendary burger and fries it was cold and had no triple O sauce. When I told them about it instead of making me a new burger the just gave me triple O sauce to put on my cold burger and I still paid full price.

Brad Dean

Was quite disappointed with their size portion. We normally get takeout from the downtown location (attached to best western) and their (downtown location) burger combo’s Caesar salad and fries were wayyyy bigger. Also, they ran out of coleslaw and didn’t bother to giving us any substitute.

Joe

Have done pickup here a few times, and they are always slower than other local White Spots. For eat in, it's fine.

Vincent Lee

Great food and friendly staff. Their milkshakes are one of the best I've had. Food quality is consistent with their chain of restaurants. You can also order online for pick up. Breakfast is nice too.

Wendy Coulson

Honestly not the best. We expect a lot from White Spot as we know it's good. But this location was slow to serve our food and it was cold and slightly stale! (Hard bread). Could be worse but definitely could be better.

Donna Bent

Normally we like White Spot, but on two occasions at this location we've found non-food items in our food, (little bits of plastic or food wrapping). We were treated well on the first occasion, but the second time it was somewhat dismissed, which is a shame as the service was otherwise good and the food was up to the usual White Spot standards.

Andrew

Punto Blanco Hombre! Great food. A must have when in BC!

Arlene MacDonald

We went here just after 7pm. There were 6 of us at the table and it took an hour and a half to get our food. It looked like the dinner rush was dying down so it wasn't very busy. That being said, the food we ordered was great. Too long of a wait if you have young kids.

Arif Bhaloo

Once again a great happy hour afternoon at White Spot. As usually Collen offered a remarkable service with professionalism . The beer and appetizers are always the best.... we had 5 of them for a party of two. We will go back again and again. Please see the pictures and answer yourself . Love it !!!

Matt Brooks

Service at this location has ranged from good to very good. The food has always been great. It should be noted all the times I have dined here has been at off-peak hours.

Greg Williamson

The breakfast came out really quickly and was delicious. The service was friendly and efficient.

Bertrand Lau

I haven't been in this White Spot for years. They have renovated since I was last there. Friendly servers. Usual White Spot quality. I only wish they would get better coffee at White Spot. The mediocre coffee (at all White Spots) is the only thing that spoils the meal for me.

tasha Edwards

Great food, always very good service. Pleasant environment. I recommend

Marco Urs

The staff does a great job and the food is always made with care. My favourite time to go is for the brunch but it's also the busiest time so expect some delay in pretty much every way from the usual time it takes to sit and get your food.

Ash Tripathi

Took the time to make us some baby food I really loved that they didn't even though it was not on the menu

Justin N

It's unfortunate that one must provide a star to post a review, because this place deserves zero. Let's start from the beginning: -Online order placed for a party of 7. -Team member went to pick up the order; while checking everything was inputted correctly in the system, the host indicated that he would bring the food over to her car when it was complete, essentially ushering her out of the restaurant. Separating the meals and consumption: -Yam fries provided instead of normal fries. No one asked for yam fries. The box indicates that the fries come with special "secret" Triple O's sauce, and it came with nothing. I guess the secret sauce is that there is no sauce. Surprise, surprise. -Clearly indicated that one salad was supposed to be caesar salad and not garden salad. Lo and behold, it is a garden salad and not a caesar salad. Salad also came with a stem - lovely! -Ordered drinks with the meals; no drinks provided. -Special note was given that we have a member allergic to nuts. She gets an allergic reaction to her food. Here's the kicker: -The bag clearly indicates a sticker that says the preparation and packaging is spot checked by "insert name." No name was put down there. Either the spot checker was a coward to put their name down, or it wasn't spot checked at all. Note to the restaurant: -Maybe next time someone wants to stay at the till to ensure everything gets inputted correctly, you LET THEM instead stick around instead of ushering them out. -Specifically asked for the bill that gives a breakdown of everything that was ordered and was only provided the total payment. Hmm... I wonder why they did that?

Jae C.

Always been a fan of the whole drive in diner experience. This would be a great and affordable date and/or catch up with a friend! Set up your phone to watch a show together while you eat in your car! It’s so cool how it’s all prepared on a long table that fits perfectly in your car and in front of you. Try the blueberry milkshake, it’s my favourite! (Unless your allergic to blueberries and are lactose, then don’t please).

Louis Cheng

Eggs benny and chicken n waffles were standard. Chicken was breaded but not really crispy. Only 1 piece of chicken so value wasn't great. Eggs benny properly executed as expected. Overall a good experience but not something to go out of the way for. Long wait (quoted 15mins but we waited for 20mins) so if you're hungry be mindful of that.

Vancouver Traveller

Rustic old original white spot. Clean and the food just tastes better than the fast food version called Triple Os

Destormm “Snowball's Chance” Williams

Seating took longer than expected, with several parties being bumped ahead of us. The host didn't say anything to us after confirming our party (of 2). Server and then Food took a long time, and when it came mods weren't respecting and several hairs were found on the plate - unfortunately, after eating most of it. Server never checked in about how our food tasted - it was warm at best, and the fries were old. The milkshake I'd ordered with everything else, having asked it to com with the meal, didn't get to the table until after I finished my burger. We were overcharged on the pasta. The service was abysmal; our server couldn't even say goodbye on our way out. Best bit of service was the manager when he happened to walk by and ask how our meal was going

T Y

We've been coming here for breakfast on weekends for the last year or so. The food is good but the service is great

Mark Lui

Ordered a burger, 30 minutes later, still waiting. You would figure with covid and seated in a half full restaurant, food coming out the kitchen would be faster.

Your standard white spot fare. Sometimes I’m in the mood for their mushroom burger and their zucchini sticks. Checked out their lougheed location - it’s a little dark but they’re open! It was quite busy over the lunch hour but did not wait too long for a booth. I ordered the mushroom burger with fries, and added the classic plate (four zoo sticks and Caesar salad). Nothing too “wow” about it, but it hits the spot!

Restaurant is typically, however when we were leaving we saw at least nine rats jumping around the garbage containers. Very disgusting...

Amy Liu

Great food and service!

Nice and cozy seating in the main area. There's an auxiliary wing, that's a good deal brighter during the day, but considerably less hygge in the evening, comparatively speaking. The food is decent, and the pirate ship food containers are pretty popular with kids under 7. Friendly service rounds out a restaurant that doesn't disappoint overall. Prices are on the slightly higher side for the quality of food.

Mary Kibbe

A family favourite. Staff is great, waits are short to reasonable at this location and the food is consistently Whitespot. So if you are a fan ( I think most of us are at some point) enjoy :)

Peter Madden

Standard whitespot, usually less busier than the other whitespots around town. Service was a little bit slow but pretty attentive. The burgers are amazing as usual, however the salad (spot salad?) was very underwhelming, the lettuce was soggy and not crisp at all, the coleslaw was alright though. Washrooms are clean and well kept, there is a big parking lot, i've personally have never seen the lot full or busy, but ymmv.

Rosa Alessio

This location makes me feel like I'm going back in time with the car hop and friendly staff

Nyan Saik Krat

On Sundays try and reserve otherwise you will be waiting 25 to 30 minutes for table

Linda Gentile

Good food pretty good service. No follow-up on drinks and had to ask but lunch time was busy so it's understandable.

Brian Stewart

Great burgers and zoo sticks too!

Phil Rumming

Busy but only a few minute wait. Staff were attentive and made sure my coffee was topped up. Food was good, no issues at all.

MrSamsicbing

Always friendly staff, great service, excellent food. Following protocols in these weird times.

Raymond Wong

The waitress was fantastic while we were here. But the actual restraunt and food were not up to the usual level you get from White Spot. The waiting room between outside and the restraunt was cozy and warm while we waited to be seated on a busy night. But the actual restraunt was freezing to the point where others not in downfilled jackets were cold. The food was also barely luke warm and the flavor was not there. Not sure if it was just an off night, or the location it self.

Audrey T

It is 2 degrees Celsius out and there are still flies inside this restaurant. Its a popular location due to its accessibility and moderately good food. Unfortunately both our burgers showed up overly charred today so it makes me wonder about the quality control. Servers are friendly so the issue is just the cleanliness and food.

Tim M

Fast and consistent, server was very friendly.

Dale Floer

This location always brings a smile to my face. The exterior is a little dated, most other locations have been reno'd. The service is quite good here and it's always clean. Although it can get really busy there isn't usually a wait.

michael&chrissy miele

Fast and prompt service. During Covid, has good pickup system and friendly staff

Terry Selzler

Both times we ate at this location: we were met with excellent staff attention & service. Staff regularly checked in with guests to make sure they had what they needed, & it looked like they were thorough with sanitizing & complying with COVID protocols. I'd give 5 stars if it weren't for the vegan patty that my husband said was quite dry. Other than that: highly recommend this place. :)

Dom M

Did online order and pickup. Clicked on the I am here button but no one came out to bring the Oder. After about 10min had to go inside and they were clueless there was someone waiting. Got home now - no cutlery despite asking for it online. Step up your game people!

Siu Hong Lum

Nice place and friendly staff. Best fries and poutine

Chona Florano

Out of this world. Excellent service, very curtious Customer Service agents, very well mannered, quick & always smiling from the inside. Fantastic food in the car service.

Alain Masterson

I work as food courier, had to wait more than 20min for an order because they made the wrong food, and the waitress didn't didn't even apologize

Rodney Weleschuk

Most times it is good ,but time we found the food cold and late. Spoke to the manager and she fixed it. Just disappointing.

Pat C.

White Spot is, was & will always be fantastic. Mom & I hadn't been to the Car Service at White Spot in years so we decided to try it since we couldn't eat inside & the food would go so cold by the time we got home. It was so so good & tasty. Omg I had forgotten how awesome it was to eat in the Car Service. The food was nice & piping hot, made to perfection, & I even enjoyed my childhood favorite the Ice Cream Float. The Legendary Combo tasted 100% better being served on the tray in the Car. Nothing was just warm or cold, Each & everything we ordered was just perfect. Even the fries with the gravy stayed perfectly hot right till the end of our meal. Excellent customer service, Fantastic burger, the best Ice-cream float money can buy, Double breaded crispy Onion rings that tasted out of this world. Normally I hate double breaded cause it becomes to hard to eat & enjoy, yet these Onion rings were devine from start to finish. Pricing was responsible, the time it took to place our order & us being served was great. Before I forget in my excitement, the Salted Caramel Ice cream on a Brownie is to die for. If you folks have never had burgers like the old days in a drive in Car Service I highly recommend it. You will be in love with White Spots all over again. Good luck Karima

Sidney Chambers

They Made It Right! I ordered a Legendary with two add-ons, and friend ordered a basic Legendary. They got both orders wrong. But when I said they were not as ordered, they did both orders Fresh and Correct! All in all, mistakes happen, and it was made right and satisfactory. I'll be going back to them when I want a great burger. As an aside, the server knew how to properly make a cup of tea!

K

Went for a quick breakfast before watching our daughter play soccer. Great fast service, reliable & good breakfast food. Thanks!

D F

Friendly staff and delicious food.

Seamus McLoughlin

Came in 5 minutes before closing. They still seated me. Non-rushed service although I was trying to hustle. Assured not to rush and take my time. Excellent food excellent service. Can't ask for more.

Laurie Jansons

Food was good and Sandra was great!!

Camari Krahn

Amazing experience during these unprecedented times. We were attended to very quickly and my 4 year old loved the menu and crayons they supplied. The food was great and the waffles and pancakes were amazing. The kids meals were great and the endless potatoes are amazing. I will be coming here and supporting local.

Chris Barbz

Food was just okay, staff were super friendly and helpful. Prices were too high for what was offered.

Lottie Ann Kerr

I love the White Spot restaurants. From their salads to their excellent veggie burgers, everything I tried here was awesome and offered a great quality for the price. Totally recommend it

Raymond Huang

Terrible service at the Drive In lot. Waited 15 minutes to place an order and finally went to the staff door to get it 25 minutes later, for just 2 desserts. The manager said he wanted to do something for me and he would be back to my car in 2 secs. Several more minutes go by, I drove off and get home to find I'd been served frozen apple ie with a side of melted ice cream.

Steve Bowen

Eat here often when in town. Restaurant is nothing special for decor but staff is friendly, food is good as is the service.

Tommy Liu

Service was friendly and fast. Some tables are crampt , too small. Old operation though.

Jim Wilson

Andrew was our server today, well done. Polite, attentive and the food was as ordered. Great family day brunch location.

David Y

Good family dining. This location has drive in service. Food is good and consistent. Lots of items for kids to choose from the pirate pak. However, waitress was too busy to help us. Can’t even get water refilled.

Dwayne Beckerleg

Food is great as always. Service is above all.

Lisa Manzi

A favourite BC restaurant for burgers and fish and (endless) fries. Decent staff and service, though on a typical Sunday evening there's a 15 minute wait to be seated. The cook staff had trouble differentiating between crispy and browned fries, so the "endless fries" don't really represent much value.

Brandon Liscoumb

Absolutely not recommend! - stale/bad air smell inside - waiters no courtesy or service manners - got seated at a dirty table - crowded and no good ambiance! Very disorganized and tarnishing to other whitespot locations! This needs a make over or better don't come here !

Chi Chi C

Great family dining. Always a favorite, great if your looking for casual dining that's a step above fast food.

Kerri F

You already know what you are getting before you step in the door. For me, I changed it up, got the salmon burger. Wowza! Cooked to perfection, tasty salmon, still moist, not overcooked. Truly a loving cook in that kitchen. Only problem is I got my food to go, otherwise I would have liked to have met the chef.

Alex Martens

The food tasted good but the appetizers were cold when we got them and it took over an hour to get our food. By the time we left we had been there 2.5 hours because of how slow it was.

Steve Barclay

Had their steel head Benedict! It was superb! It was so good in fact that everyone ordered a plate of it! The table service exceeded all expectations! And to add to it all, the people that visit this location are very nice and generous! Highly recommend.

Patricia Wyka

Always consistent and we had excellent service, really can't ask for much more

Tom Doman

Despite the restaurant being packed on a Sunday, the service was good, and the waits were not too long.

Patrick Chang

Busy as usual lots of good deals

Joanne Sriranpong

Great shrimp sandwich!! Very nice servers and polite!! Thanks ????

grant rheaume

In copmparison price food to quantity of food on the plate the ratio it's not adding up aside from the food is good and all but I think 16 dollar for a dinner and the food bearly was enough to full you up !

Emma

Pretty busy in this location on weekend the service is good and the food is better than other family restaurant in term of quality and presentation. Of course the price tag is different but not that much. The kids meal price is just about like MacDonald with free refill on the drink. Since my kids already want to go back some other times. I believe I'm happy about it.

John Kemp

Our guests from the Yukon, requested a Whitespot experience. They arrived at 8 pm, were seated right away and ordered drinks and appetizers. Only after this, were they informed, they had rum out of steak, pork, rice, broccoli and cheese and fettuccini. Common curtesy would have been to have been informed of this prior to ordering the drinks and appetizers. No one ate what they went there to eat. We were offered free dessert as compensation. You could imagine our surprise when we were informed only one free dessert was being offered by management. Very disappointing.

Cory McCaig

What’s wrong with a business that cannot perform a simple refund when I got charged incorrectly by the business? It’s just ridiculous. I was forced to take a coupon and still had my order made wrong (other than the price).

DylPickle07

Thought doing a drive in dinner would be a fun idea. But after watching cars get their food that came after us we asked and found our order was never placed. Changed our order to go as our patience was long gone. Food was good when we finally got it but so much for a nice drive in dinner date.

Jim Foster

Went to the drive-in to show my wife what it was like. Food was fantastic. Prepared nicely, pretty quick service. Only knock is the menu was pretty limited, but that was expected.

Steven Pereira

I went here earlier in the summer and the service was fairly disappointing, it took about 10 minutes to be greeted and it took even longer for our water to arrive. I wasn’t going to write a review but I was told from a friend about the unprofessionalism at this location as well. They had to wait well over an hour past the meeting time for their interview, then were told they would be given the job, only to be told a few days later that they will not be given the position anymore (they had already bought pants needed for the job). It baffles my mind that any business can be run like this, truly dissatisfied.

luke lortie

Outstanding Thanksgiving Luncheon - we took some pumpkin pie to go and it was delicious.

Kyle Hutchinson

It's rare to find a chef that knows how to cook a steak the way you like it. But this place was perfect, props to the chef.

Carole Harkonen

Excellent and quick service, with a large party too! we had a group seating of 10 people and they sat us in a quick and efficient manner! Waitress was very polite and very organized, very well noted when she separated our bills in order and through out the entire service was very diligent in refilling our drinks, asking if we needed more fries, and much more! Not my first time here, but service has definitely improved over the years!

H Macklemore

We had a very long touring day in Vancouver and came off the sky train hungry and this place met our needs!

Tammy Taurus

Usually you go to a diner to get inexpensive comfort food. Instead, we got an expensive, tasteless and bland excuse for fast food. More flavour and value at McDonalds. Service was great though. Hope the chef sees this.

Joseph shihman

BC Combo with a lettuce wrap (instead of bun) and yam fries for take out is always amazing !! Keep up the good work.

Derek Jay

I used to go to this location very often. Alas, it’s gone downhill. I find that service that’s more time than I do doing a 1 km run, that’s slow. And they don’t even show any smiles when serving customers, which is essential for tips. Otherwise, the food is still good and everything hasn’t changed much.

Jen

The place has a big potential to be much better. The food was ok, but drinks & desserts, no! The apple pie wasn’t fresh at all, tasted like a frozen pie got warmed in a microwave! Drinks left back because it didn’t taste good. Staff were friendly and responsive though.

Rebecca

We had an absolutely awesome experience! Our waiter name was Javier and he was superb! We did the Eat in your car option where you put your hazard lights on and it was my first time and I loved it! But a great experience I highly recommend it.

Rebecca T

Great, friendly service: all staff were very committed to super customer service. Smallest White Spot restaurant I've ever dined in. Chicken pot pie was tasty and satisfying. Dry ribs were a little boring, however, the Legendary Burger did not disappoint.

Helga Agleh

Hamburger and pop now are over $20 at the drive in

Tasman Ng

Great food lots of parking wheelchair accessible happy staff what can I say they got a (you can't call it a drive thru) maybe you can call it a bunny hop place )no wrong words what's the words I'm looking for it's like your back in the 50/60s were u pull up park your car flash your lights and some one comes up on roller skates takes your food order and presto your food come to you but this place doesn't have the people on roller skates (and that's ok cause there happy people and that's what I look for in any establishment okay see you

crystal phillips

Great service! Always good food.

Daniel Gilmour

Awesome comfort food, good service....they have taken COVID-19 safety measures so it was comfortable.

Franklin Sox

It was ok. I guess I'm used to the service that I get at the Squamish Whitespot. But the server looked very busy and hurried and we spent about 15 mins waiting to be acknowledged or have a drink order taken. The food is very good but that's to be expected with a restaurant chain. I'll go back to Whitespot, but I'll avoid this location.

Don PITTENDREIGH

Service

Daniel Lee

It is truly amazing to me that people line up for the absolute WORST food on earth !!! Extremely overpriced, over cooked dried out greasy disgusting food, the clueless staff brings you dirty cutlery, glasses and dishes and acts like your the problem for complaining. We ONLY go there when someone gives us gift cards but we will regift them in the future.

Shawn balaghi

One of those days when only White Spot will do and I was not let down. Food was awesome as usual. Service was great. 10/10 on both.

Dr. Wz

Friendly staff with great personality! Service was quick and efficient. Restaurant was pretty busy for a Wednesday night. Food was served hot and it was delicious!

Curtis Tomkins

I just experienced the worst service I've ever had at a Whitespot. It took almost 10 minutes for a server to come take our order. No water or anyone coming to take our drink order during that time. The food was slow in coming and my burger and fries were dry. Combine that with a smoking hot plate means my food sat under the heat lamp a while. Waited again for the bill, which I had to ask for, and when I tried to get another server to take my cash payment, she refused and told me that my server would take it. Of course, she was MIA for 15 or more minutes, which is why I asked the other server. I've been here for breakfast and I've never had such terrible service. Could it be that the evening staff is sub par?

Marisa Pierri

Good service, but limited menu.

Roman Petrenko

Sectional booths, clean, friendly staff! Great to bring the kids.

Q L

Today the service was slow food was luke warm at best and the onion rings were over cooked to a deep dark brown. You would think onion rings should have onions in them too not onion skin where you couldn't bite through them. At least the mushrooms in the mushroom burger were cooked well but then again how could you screw that up.

larry oster

Exactly as expected. Efficient, friendly and functional. The roasted potatoes at breakfast were spectacular.

Kimberley M

Come here only if you want your time and money wasted - atrocious service, infuriatingly slow, marginal food, orders wrong, checks wrong. It took 30 minutes before we finally hailed someone to get us water and take orders. An HOUR and fifteen minutes before getting our food. And when they finally served the food, they screwed it up. Had to redo orders. Cue more waiting. When we finally get the bills, multiple had incorrect extra charges on them. For this kind of price point, I'm sorry, but this place is a disgrace.

Jaime G

Went for dinner during the busy time of 6pm. Service was slower due to the volume of customers to servers. Food and drinks were the same quality as always, worth the wait. Staff were friendly and polite. Bathrooms were very clean. Will be returning in the future.

STONED#2 Ooo

Our go to breakfast or brunch place. Good coffee.

Roberta Wingert

Sat for 10 min waiting for a server, place was dead, went to eat at a restaurant that actually serves you when you sit down. Wake up and serve, instead of being on your phone's, talking.

Daniel

I attended for brunch this afternoon for 2 people. The level of service from our server was quite unsatisfactory. Not once did she stop by to ask how everything was upon receiving the meal nor offer a refill on coffee. The smashbrowns were stale and in order to get a replacement I had to flag down a hostess. I attend whitespot regularly because I can normally rely on a certain level of quality and service. To say the least that wasn't received today.

Tyrone

Yummy or I wouldn't have gone there friendly too!

Jake Vienneau

Been here multiple times, and the food is always up to par. The big let down this time however was a request for some brown sugar to go with coffee was made four times, to three different people over the space of about 20 mins. Disappointing.

Trevor Melton

Food was over cooked. I had the same order last week at the location at Marine Way and Burn Road and it was much better

Joe Greenhalgh

Drive in service and food... What more can you ask for in a pandemic. Service was friendly, and fun, and the food was great. I've had bad white spot, and this was not that!
