The Derby Bar and Grill

Limited breakfast menu. This is the place for horse racing. Service is excellent. Friendly staff.

Our friend who lives close by recently went on a weekday and suggested we have lunch here on a Saturday.nnIt’s interesting that it’s a eat, drink and betting establishment. Horse racing/derby theme throughout. Monitors are tuned to horse racing, with betting machines inside.nMost patrons are derby fans and every Saturday they hold a Handicapping Contest starting at noon so more than half the seating is reserved for that.nnService was great, food was good and reasonably priced but betting fans can be very enthusiastic and noisy, so be prepared for that. We had no choice but to be seated by a large group this day Saturday.nnThe Caesar Chicken Wrap $16 and Chicken Clubhouse $16 had nice chunky pieces of chicken see pics. The Mushroom Swiss Burger $19 was good but fries were limp and a little oily.nAll sandwiches, wraps and burgers come with soup or fries.nnWebsite says minors are welcome when accompanied by an adult until 10 pm but they’re only open until 5pm some days, earlier others.nThere was swearing given the clientele so be prepared for that also.nSuggest going on a weekday may be more suitable with minors.nnThere is parking in front and along one side.nLocated very close to the Canada/USA Pacific aka Douglas Border Crossing at 0 Ave. Surrey.

Walked in for breakfast today and waited for 10 mins. I could see that staff was chatting with the chef so I left and came back 15mins later. Again Zero acknowledgement that I was there so after another 10 mins I just walked out and drove to the gas station down the street for a muffin. Definitely wont be back

Really relaxed and welcoming environment. The staff were super friendly and the chef came to our table multiple times to check in on the meal. They couldn't do enough to keep our kids happy with colouring paper, crayons and they have a very reasonable $7 kids menu. The food is restaurant quality at pub food prices and their homemade blueberry pie was awesome! The decor and memorabilia are spot on and complement the array of TVs showing horse racing really well. A must visit for racing folk and non horse people alike!

Suprising nice pub. The food is top notch. My potatoes were cooked to perfection and the salmon benny I had was 100% spot on.nnService was 110% friendly and timely. Honestly this place is 20 min from my house and I’m tempted to go there now for breakfast.nn1 thing I would say is my wife Monte Cristo was cooked perfectly BUT was really bland. It was not bad but it just felt like I needed something more for flavor.nnThe pancake was not like IHOP but more like something your grandma would have made. Fluffy but yet heavy. Flavor was good and it was very filling.
