Jan's On the Beach

Very cozy, friendly servers, and delicious food! Loved the calamari and the onion rings the cod is not frozen everything is fresh even the sauce! Highly recommended! Had a small issue with the order but they fix it no problem we ended up getting a free food.

Excellent BC Celiac Association Chapter dinner served at Jans! Total of 30 people enjoyed fresh fish and chips, calamari and other gluten free, safe meals! Beautiful night for dinner on the patio and we were serenaded by a members son - Austin! Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible restaurant. Washrooms a bit tight to get into and turn around. All on same floor. Dietary restrictions: Serves gluten free food that is safe for those with Celiac Disease.

I really wanted this to be a great review. We’d been waiting for months to finally have an opportunity to make it out to white rock to go to this gluten friendly restaurant. We went on a weekend for an early dinner and it wasn’t busy. We thought we just had great timing. The first table we were seated at was terrible, there was barely 2 inches of knee room because it was a fire table with propane underneath which we were not using. We continuously hit our knees and when we sat back we were so far apart we could barely have a conversation. The only other available table on the patio had this same table so we waited for the one next to us to clear and expressed our desire to move. It took the waitress at least 20 mins to clear the table for us there were only 3 tables of people at the restaurant. It was not busy by any means. The tortilla was dry, crumbly, and stale, the taco itself was filled with dry, stale, bagged cabbage with no sauce on it. There were also tasteless slimy “pickled” red onions on top of the taco. The fish itself was incredible dry. We stopped eating and when the waitress came to check on our first few bites we told her they were very dry and didn’t taste very good. She offered to bring some chipotle mayo. We agreed and tried that on it. It was disgusting. Between us we started with 6 tacos and were barely able to eat two of them. When the waitress returned, we asked for the bill, she never offered to bring us a take-out container for the remaining 4 tacos not that we would want it. She did, however, proceed to bring us the full bill including the two taco orders. She didn’t offer to discount it or credit the bill even though we hardly ate any of the meal. We are out over $60 for the most disgusting meal I’ve ever had. I also cannot believe, after expressing our concern, trying again, and still being unsatisfied, that she charged us the full bill. I’m incredibly disappointed and would definitely not recommend.

Jan's on the Beach! First time and WOW! Sooooo good! They had mimosa on 2 for $10!!! Was on a Sunday. Calamari was perfect, huge pile of onion rings cause we are adults and don't count calories on Sundays lol! Huge chunks of fish for the fish tacos, pulled pork sandwich with yam fries, blackened chicken and brie sandwich. And a complimentary Salted Caramel creme brulee. Nom nom nom. They ran out of chowder and they don't have Ceasar salad due to the cost of Romain at the moment. We over ordered and everyone was so full. Our waitress was fantastic and so much fun. Will definitely go back.

First time going to Jan's on the beach.. and it was amazing. When you first look from the outside.. it was a place you might quickly check but move on. However, we decided to stop and try it out and it is SO TRUE.. looks can be deceiving. The staff was very friendly and when I ordered th seafood fettucine.. the presentation was beautifully done and it tasted AMAZING. You think since it was in a bowl it was a good portion but I found it very filling and had to take home. They filled it with lots of delicious seafood.. and I was not disappointed. So happy that we did not pass it.

We have walked past this place a dozen times, but never stopped in. Our loss. The food was delicious, The staff were attentive and fun,and the ocean was in clear view from our seats. A wee bit expensive. Definitely worth a try when you are in White Rock. Try the sticky pudding.Food: 5/5

Truly lucked out getting a table outside without a reservation. The staff managed the situation extremely well as Jan was alone doing all the kitchen duties! Kudos to a great crew consistently putting out amazing flavourful meals!

This is my favourite restaurant in the white rock area. The fish and chips is so good and of course gluten free. Drinks are great as well and the staff is always friendly.

Delicious food and celiac friendly with dedicated fryer. Service was extremely nice. Vegan buddha burger was fantastic, sweet potato fries amazing, gluten free poutine! Will go back, recommended!

Cute little spot on the promenade, has a nice patio with a decent view of the water. The food was delicious, lots of gluten free options. My girlfriend is celiac so this was a huge selling point for us! She had the fish and chips and I had the green curry. The staff were also very friendly. I'd definitely recommend, especially for people with dietary restrictions. Dietary restrictions: Lots of Gluten free Celiac options.
