Kiniski's is the greatest small town tavern atmosphere and character.
Had the beast experience last night with two god friends and some new friend we met there. Â
I'm pretty sure most of the bad reviews are from stuck up people who shouldn't be hangin out in taverns anyway.
its a must stop when in Point Roberts.
Park liquor store, part pub. The place is expansive. Expansive and empty.
The few times that I've come here it has been hilariously dead. One Saturday I ended up here with a couple people and the place was hoppin'... with two people playing pool.
In its defense the population of the town is minimal during the cold months.
Bonuses:
Less customers, faster service (ideally).
Pool tables.
Variety of seating options.
Came here just because. Â Apparently there are restaurants in Point Roberts.
The tsunami warning sign was a bit unnerving. Â You'll see if if you drive westward on Gulf. Â Fingers crossed.
Parking is plentiful here. Â Mainly because, well, the place is deserted. Â There was a small group chatting inside but it looked like they were part of an event with the staff. Â We were the only guests there. Â With that said, there were dedicated parking spots outside for motorcycles.
The place is seriously beaten up. Â I couldn't tell initially if the place was open.
The interior is quite dim, and the seats had several rips in it. Â With that said, there was a (unlit) dance floor, and a couple of ping pong tables. Â Maybe this place is a bit more happening at night. Â However, this place has an AWESOME view of the ocean, as it's right against the coastline.
The guy behind the bar was very nice, and even suggested we go up the street to eat at Caffe Capanna instead. Â However, we decided to give this place a go anyways. Â I ordered a fish and chips ($9). Â The fries were quite good, but the fish pieces were small. Â Oh, and they were also both somewhat burned.
The interesting thing about this place is that apparently they take $CAD all the time at par, no matter what the market rates are. Â I guess the owner got sick of having to exchange cash in both directions. Â We even got our change back in Canadian dollars. Â Sweet!
Yup, this is a dive bar. Â Not sure if I'd be back during the day, but it'd be interesting to check out in the evenings for sure.
If you're outside on a nice day, and the kitchen is open, this is a great place. And the special events are good. I appreciate how they sponsor benefits. However, on an ordinary day or night, the place is a dreary throwback unless you're into sitting around drinking and watching sports on TV.
Review Source:Maybe deserves to be 3.5 or even 4 stars - depends on where you sit, what the weather is like, the day of the week.
Inside is simply dreary, on a rainy day its worse.
On a sunny day, sit outside.
The outside boast a huge patio overlooking the ocean for as far as the eye can see. Guys showed up around 5 pm with chickens for the eagles nesting in a tree way up the bluff - they started swinging them in circular motions, the gigantic bald eagles took flight, swooped down and they threw the chickens up for them to swoop down and grab - awesome show!
On a hot sunny day, the weather is beautiful, the scenery is too, the beer is cold and you could literally drink all day - as long as you don't have to drive anywhere!
You can get cheap beer and you can get good beer, but you can't get both! LOL If you like watery, cheap American beer, its maybe $3, but if you want dark beer, anything with taste, and they had some good ones, its just like being in Canada - but what the hell, we're used to paying $5, 6, 7, 8 for a beer anyways!
Spend a lazy, relaxed day here, and if its the weekend, it'll be packed with relaxed holidaying happy tipsy people!
It has an outside patio and a liquor store adjacent. Â It looks like it's been open for a hundred years, or at least it feels that way inside. Â Outside, though it's a whole different story. Â Super sunny, clean patio with lots of sun and a beautiful view of the ocean (and the shipping ports). Â The BBQ master has waterfights with the waitresses. Â I love that! Â The best part? Â They take Canadian money at PAR. Â Sweet deal! Â Now only if the liquor store did that... Â I hear you can now take a 6-pack of beer back with you to Canada on the same day.
