Wooden Spoon Co

The food and drinks were amazing! Good portion sizes and incredibly tasty. Based on food alone it would be 5 stars. My issue was with the service. It wasn’t terrible, our server got our order and brought our food but it certainly seemed like she wanted to be anywhere else but serving food. No conversation, no recommendations basically no personality. That would be fine if there wasn’t the expectation of a tip. I work in the industry and I have no problem tipping. But when I get the bare minimum of service it makes it really difficult to justify. She made a small attempt at conversation when the bill came, presumably to secure a good tip. I’ll be coming back, but probably just for take out.

Another White Rock gem that took me way too long to try!nnReally nice staff and vibe here. It’s so hard to find spots that compare to service and standards of Vancouver and Wooden Spoon does not disappoint!nnWe came for a birthday lunch/brunch and it was pretty busy for a weekday.nnThe service was great. The food was delicious and the drinks were great.nnWe are vegan + gluten free and dairy free + gluten free so there isn’t too much for us on the menu, but that’s ok. Unfortunately in 2024 it’s still a struggle to find restaurants that cater to non soy + gluten eating vegans + dairy free peeps.nnI would definitely come here again. It’s seems like a really awesome local spot to have some awesome food and drinks!

Food 4.5/5 Fresh and tastynService 4/5 Staff are kind and attentive. They nicely asked us to leave after about two hours of dining time saying people were waiting. We understood and settled the bill. But there were empty tables so not really sure why they rushed us.nAmbience 5/5 Very cutennReturn likelihood: yes if I am in the area again as it’s quite far away from my neighborhood

We recently ordered a 20-person food package from The Wooden Spoon for our team, and it was hands down the easiest and most stress-free event we’ve ever had. They took care of everything—literally, all we needed to do was turn on the grill and cook. The food was absolutely delicious, and everyone agreed it was the tastiest staff event we’ve ever had. This experience has completely transformed how we think about organizing staff events. Can’t recommend The Wooden Spoon enough! Thank you.

This charming spot boasts extremely friendly staff and delicious food. Despite being busy, we were seated quickly. Conveniently located on the way to the beach, it exudes a cool and inviting vibe.
