We went to Moose's Down Under for the first time for a fundraiser event.
We ordered Rootine, chicken strips and onion rings. We didn't have high expectation but we were very surprised to the quality of food. We love the uniqueness of having kangaroo meat in the poutine, the right ratio of gravy and cheese. I didn't tried to chicken strips but my friend really enjoy it. The pub offer some appetizers for the fundraiser. We thoroughly enjoy their chicken wings, veggie platters, and spring rolls. They had comedians that night. We had a blast that night. The servers were super attentive and friendly. Despite having a huge crowd, they managed to remember our names. We will definitely come back another time to hang out with friends. -

Came here expecting an Outback Steakhouse-style terrible "Australian" menu, but Moose's was a great little oasis of Australia while visiting Vancouver. They have vegemite & cheese sandwiches, a fantastic meat pie and Australian beers. staff were super friendly and attentive

This place is amazing!! Incredibly delicious food and friendly staff made for such a great dinner!
I was feeling hungry so I ordered the Roo Burger since I've never eaten Kangaroo meat before with mixed greens as well as the Outback Jack Chicken Parmie. Mom got the Baja Steak Salad while dad got the Big DUD burger. We also got the Steak Bites to share. First thing that caught my eye was just how big the chicken parmie was when it came out. Big serving but ohh soo good. I'm glad I got the Outback Jack version as the combination of melted cheese, BBQ sauce, and bacon just added another layer of deliciousness to the chicken beneath it. I also appreciated the side of mixed greens that came with it as it was an actual side salad and not a tiny serving like so many other restaurants give you. The fries were cooked just right and stayed crunchy throughout the entire dinner. But that chicken parmie was insane. Definitely a must try when you eat here.
My Roo burger was good! Overall, any difference between the meat compared to a normal beef burger was quite subtle and I think anyone would be able to enjoy it without issue! What I really loved though was the addition of that blueberry relish that came on the burger! It's underneath the meat patty in my photo so you can't see it but wow. Next time I'm going to ask if I could have a small cup of just that blueberry relish to dip my burger in. I don't know how else to describe it beyond it being different than your usual ketchup or mustard or mayo condiment but functions in the same manner but tastes a million times better. I loved it. Mom really enjoyed her salad. The size was substantial and filling for her. The steak bites were also delicious!
I'm so glad we stopped here. Our Australian waiter was friendly the entire evening. Our food was wonderful and filling. I would definitely eat here again. If you're thinking about trying one of their special chicken parmies, go for the Outback Jack! -

Visited this restaurant twice in the past month with my colleagues and friends. It's the first time I visited a pub in Downtown Vancouver. In all the times that I have lived here, I wish that I knew about this pub sooner. This is the place where I was introduced into comfort food and it was absolutely amazing. The combination of great food, great drinks, and great atmosphere truly make this place an amazing place to gather with friends. I had a Chicken Strips and Chips and a Ginger Ale in my last visit here. The meal was good but I am sure that there were better options on the menu. I think I am going to try their Aussie Meat Pie in my next visit with my friends.

This place is a hidden gem. I found out about it 9 years ago when my colleague from last job took me here for lunch. The name tells you that the restaurant is in the basement. Prices here are still very very reasonable. A lunch around $13 is not bad for such a big portion. This place serves Aussie food (not a lot of restaurant claims itself being Aussie food type). So they are popular for their meat pie and meatloaf etc. They also serve burgers. A special burger they have is the kangaroo burger. Also very popular on their menu.
The place is pretty much the same look and feel 7 years ago. The business owner used to hire people who looks like her but when I went recently this is no longer the case.
So back to today. I recently ordered the Aussie meat pie. The portion is a bit smaller than what I remembered. The pie was quite salty. But even though I said portion is a bit smaller than before, it was still pretty huge that I can't finish it. The meat pie came with fries (very hot and fresh).
Colleague ordered the ham a Swiss sandwich with soup and he said it was really good.
Overall for the price I was paying, I liked it.
