Heathen Brewing Feral Public House

Delicious beer and great happy hour. Staff are attentive and fun. Relaxing vibes.

Probably worth 4.5 stars but that isn't an option. Pizza was really good but not as well done as I requested. The cheese soup was pretty good too though the toast was really well done, lol. The real star for me was the blackened fish taco. It had way more fish than I expected.

Such an amazing vibe with a HUGE outdoor eating area! Great inside seats in A/C. The pizza was absolutely phenomenal super hot and fresh with gooey cheese everywhere. Definitely ordering that again! The Mac n cheese was amazing with a cheddar and bacon plus a bit of heat. I also had the spring rolls which were a great deal. You get a huge plate of them. Everything I had was absolutely amazing and top-notch. The only reason I gave the service a four rating is because you need to order the food yourself and get your to go boxes yourself. You need to wait in a line at the bar to order, and then they will bring the food to your table. I would’ve preferred to have a waitress rather than doing all the ordering self service style. I do understand though with the lack of help today this is a great way to keep the bar moving during busy times.

Service: Great. Smiles, a little laughter, reminder about kitchen last call. Cleanliness: Clean! Tabletop wiped down and nothing sticky to report aside from chicken fingers that needed cleaning after my meal. Atmosphere: Relaxed, sports bar, not too loud, not too quiet. Outside patio seating looks amazing but not 90+ degree weather amazing. Pictured: Peanut Butter Bacon burger? It wasn't mine but I wanted to try it. Korean Burrito, whole smoked feral wings with feral sauce, herbal fries, featuring my to go box with a little bit of everything because I wanted to enjoy it again the next day. Food: Delicious. The Korean Burrito was a curious one to me and the gochujang sauce that was drizzled on the plate was a perfect spice to complement the entree. I had to order more sauce to go for my take home portion. The wings were very deceiving. They looked really dry on the outside but they were moist and warm on the inside. Easy to tear off the bones. The fries were amazing too! Plenty of flavour and dipping them in different sauces kept me coming back for another fry again and again. Not pictured: Stellar Collision Cold Brew Coffee Porter. I do enjoy my coffee and this was no different. Yes it is a beer but from what I expected as a nice coffee touch to a beer, I wasn't far from the mark! I'll need to order something a bit more berry next time to try out. Overall: I would consider coming here again! It was really spacious and I liked the food! I wished they had paper towels in the bathrooms but I do understand the need to be green! Can't wait to try more food from here.

We tried nachos with carne asada, pretzel, wagyu burger and African soup. I felt like the pretzel was overpriced. Burger was okay. Nachos and soup were good. My drink was better. Berried and lime. It's a nice spot to sit with friends have a few drinks. Service was good.

Foods are Delicious and Yummy. I like this pub in Vancouver Downtown areas. Very unique and special. Outside tables are fun and big enough space. Drafts are cold and good. My husband and I have date night over there. We liked this pub. After 6pm you don’t need to pay the parking ticket. And Enjoy the friends and family time.

Went on a weekend to get together with family and this place was a really good find. They have an expansive seating area with a very large outdoor-covered area. The food and beer options were extensive and good. The only thing keeping me from giving it a full 5 stars is the way you order. Perhaps covid and staffing levels are limiting options, but waiting in a long line to order for a group is a bit of a pain. But overall, it's a great place to go for good drinks and comfort food.

We attended a church function in their separate space area. It was massive inside for seating options and even outside seating options. Lots of beers/ciders/non alcoholic drink options. Their own rootbeer was quite yummy! Food menu was expansive. So many options to choose from so will have to definitely go back. Mmmerica Burger was tasty. Highly recommend checking it out as we will back to try more

Beer is great didn't try the food but 100% would come back for the beers! I ordered raspberry rhubarb and tribal jam Mai Kai mai..... they have a ton of their own brewed beers which is impressive....:

Love coming here for brunch, this time I got the country fried steak with over easy eggs and it was so good. I've also gotten their breakfast tacos too which are yummy as well. Lunch and dinner is good too. Service is always good and with the time we came it was quick. Indoor and outdoor seating (dog friendly patio). Sitting outside is my favorite, when weather allows. Good beer options and for brunch there is bloody Mary's, a mimosa option and some N/A options. One of our go to spots, that's for sure!

I've been coming here on and off for a long time because a close friend of mine loves it. The food is usually pretty good and they even have kombucha on rotation which is nice when I don't want to drink. Their burgers and sweet potato fries are always good. The tacos have been a bit bland lately which sucks because they were my favorite. I'll be honest about the service because this place confuses me a bit. Some of the staff is great, but consistently there is a very grumpy/rude blonde chick (usually wearing a crop top) that is rude when dropping off food. Rude enough to the point where my friends were shocked. She dropped my food of in front of someone else after I said "oh that's for me" and she looks at me and says "whatever". This wasn't the first time she has been rude to me. I get people have bad days, but don't treat paying and tipping customers as an inconvenience. I don't need you to smile at me or ask me how my day was. Just don't be rude. I'm still giving this place 4 stars because the owner is a 49ers fan and the other staff members are great! Plus they have a dog friendly patio.

I enjoyed myself. I have tried a handful of their beers previously. They are not my top, but I have had some really good stuff from them. The location is pretty cool. Like most parts of portland/vancouver parking is spotty at best. There is a lot, but it was really full for an early Saturday. I am fully baffled at the pure amount of beer they have on tap. Like I said I have tried a handful of their stuff in bottles, cans, and at events. But they had dang near 50 beers on tap. Thats bananas. I would definitely come back again. The staff was funny joking around with what I could only imagine are regulars. The place is huge. The prices for beer were fair. I would recommend. Its always fun for me to visit a brewery.

Great place ! Great ambience Loved the bathroom doors art. Tons of different beer to chose from... happy hour is definitely happy with excellent food portions

Do yourself a favor and get the steak nachos. Their queso is perfect. Their strawberry lemonade with tequila is on point. The staff always puts me in a good mood. So delicious. Hadn't been in quite some time and was pleasantly pleased with it.

We attended a church function in their separate space area. It was massive inside for seating options and even outside seating options. Lots of beers/ciders/non alcoholic drink options. Their own rootbeer was quite yummy! Food menu was expansive. So many options to choose from so will have to definitely go back. Mmmerica Burger was tasty. Highly recommend checking it out as we will back to try more!

Great place if you want a casual bite to eat. You order at the front and choose your seat with your number in hand. It's quick, but make sure you remember to close out your tab. It's street parking, but they have a big variety of beers/ciders on tap. Something for everyone.

Okay...I don't usually write reviews. Had the most odd and disappointing experience. Set the scene...there's a game happening I'd like to watch and I see there is outdoor space. I have a dog so decide to swing by, have a drink, and watch the game. There's two screens outside, the one playing the game has all these tables with reserved signs. Waitress immediately tells me that I won't be able to sit there but I can sit near the other TV and ask the bartender inside to change the channel. Seems reasonable. I go inside...and the bartender tells me something about scanning a QR code and not looking at screens... I didn't quite understand which is my bad but can happen and he clarified but he seemed frustrated already.... I then ask if he can change the channel outside and he immediately looks on the defensive and says probably not but he will check. OK.... I said I am hoping to watch a game and have a drink so could you check first? He then says well, the game is playing inside so just come inside. I say, "I'm sorry... I have a dog with me." He then storms to a room and mumbles (audibly so I can hear), "No you're not" in response to my apology. In retrospect, sure maybe I wasn't very sorry but felt like the polite thing to say in response to his suggestion. He comes back after a few seconds and says rudely that no he can't change the channel. I got back outside and get my dog, I stand by the TV playing the game just to check the score for a minute and then he walks out and says you can sit here...goes and stands at a sharp angle to the TV playing the game and says "I can see the game from here"... I'm a little flustered at this point so go and sit and say thanks. He says if you want to sit here and watch the game you'll need to order food and/or drinks. I acknowledge. I sit there for a minute and he's going in and out.. there are waitresses probably noticing his energy and rudeness but not doing anything. I decide not to stay and leave. Okay, long play by play but this is the PDX area with a lot of places to have beer, and customer service should be high in the list. Also, yes, we all have bad days...but wow...I think this was taking a bit far. Chill dude, it's not that serious. You don't need to go out of your way to make someone else's day terrible.

Update!! This is my fav brewery in the Couve. They are mature with their brewing and the dining and food is amazing. From burgers and sandwiches and more. I love the dirty fries with a really nice cold tap brew. Most of all, the have developed a really strong sense of community. The Patio and fire pit make a great atmosphere. Often there is live music. So come on over. They're downtown and just about the friendliest staff you'll find. Hope you enjoy as much as I do.

Great food and excellent value for happy hour any day of the week! The music can be a little directly in the bar area, but there's plenty of other seating available.

Loved the patio space, great beer, and good fries! The staff was definitely visibly annoyed, which threw me off a bit, but we didn't have a hard time getting service. We're new to the area, and we'll be back.

Drinks were solid. At some points the line you need to wait in does get long, so expect to wait. Bartender was solo and was seemingly getting frustrated at times, especially when numerous people were ordering flights. i liked all the drinks and the appetizer we got was different than what i'm used to, i enjoyed it but wouldn't get it again. I'll probably go back but if it's busy inside it's kind of a one and go next type place. Staff behind the bar could use some good vibes. Dude was working hard but got overwhelmed. He's probably due for a bonus and a 2nd pair of hands. He wears many hats. I'll be back either way.

I came in here on a whim trying to find some food during a busy time of day. It wasn't very busy which was great for me, it was nice and clean and the staff was friendly. Another person recommended the wings and they were amazing! They are full wings which you don't see often anymore and the sauce was great completely coated. I would definitely come back for that again.

Read multiple reviews that complained about the service here, wish I had listened because here I am, adding my experience to the pile. "Old ass grandma" were words I heard come out of the owner's mouth regarding a customer on her way out. I don't even think the two had interacted it was so weird and wildly uncalled for. I've never seen someone in the service industry so unnecessarily mean. You could not pay me to go back here. Oh and the variety of beer on tap was honestly disappointing.

Heathen is a mixed bag for me. Walking by, you'd almost miss it it's so dark even at lunch. Inside, you order and pay at the bar before sitting down, which is fine but can be somewhat awkward for a seemingly sit-down restaurant. The staff are effective but not very friendly. The furnishings are classic bar style without much personality. Two tacos cost about $13. Granted, they were loaded tacos and tasted good but they don't even serve a second tortilla for all the food that falls out as you eat. Overall, it's just expensive for what it is and not a great customer experience.

Amazing food and brews!!! The service is always great and the atmosphere is also also very pleasant

Always an awesome spot. Great food. Great selection of beers and always entertaining. Quick service and the vibe is always chill.

Great outdoor seating space. No table service so you order at the bar and they'll bring your food to your table and then you bus it wjen youre done. You grab your drinks before you pick a seat. They have so many things on the menu I want to try! On this lovely day I had the brisket philly and my son had the pepperoni pizza. The brisket philly was delish. The peppers and onions were perfect and the cheese really made it pop without being overwhelming. The pizza crust had a lot of bubble in it which was annoying but otherwise it passed the kid test.

It's so weird.... I thought we were going to a brewery, not a monastery. If you're celibate, hate children and despise good customer service or basically decent humans, you will *LOVE* it here! But I should've known - the name Heathen is apt. Happy families with happy kids *need not apply*. Understood. You're not our people. Too bad - I do like your beer. ‍ Not worth it to have to deal with your employees though.

Review after review, my view remains unchanged. The tap list here is awesome and I love the variety of beers and ciders they offer. Service is usually fine, nothing amazing but the people are friendly and quick (you do gotta order at the bar). I've had numerous menu items, most are pretty good, some ok. Twice now my son has been denied dessert for one reason or another (no ice cream one day and no chocolate straws on another) but other than that, I have no complaints. Btw they have all day happy hour on Sunday, coolio!

Ok, I may never ever come here again. I ordered a hazy with mosaic, and it was a clear lager. I had the tsp tender taste it, he said it's just clearing up, that's it, that's the mosaic hazy. I went to my seat and continued to smell lager yeast, no smell or taste of ANY hops. I returned to question it, and they wanted to pour the same thing. I said I think the lines are switched. And they got angry and brought me pictures of the keg labeled with the beer I ordered. And then Britton came over and chewed my ass out and told me to apologize to the taptender. I said well I'll speak to Sonny (the owner) about it, and Britton responded by saying "lots of people say they know Sonny, and sonny is a jerk. And apparently so am I. Eff this place I don't need idiots chewing me out who can tell a hazy with Mosaic from a Lager. Geez!

I came here today with some friends. They had brought their dog, so we sat on the patio. The restaurant Hadler, a patio them, so it wasn't so cold. Pretty chilly though! I chose a Pilsner beer. Number 11. It was really good! Also, I enjoyed a Reuben sandwich. The meat was moist and perfectly smoked. The cheese was melted and the onions sautéed. I liked their thousand island dressing there. A pretty tasty sandwich. I think it could've had a bit more meat on it for the price but I do understand everything is more expensive these days. It came with fries, but I chose to substitute for a Caesar salad. Nice fresh Caesar with big shavings of Parmesan, and their dressing was good. There is not table service, so you order and they bring your food to you. My friends tried the Philly sandwich, the taco, and the chicken wings. Their food looked really tasty as well. The wings were crispy and I enjoyed mine a lot.

Me and my friend come here every Tuesday. If you're looking for good drinks and good food this is the place to go! Their beer knowledge is incredible, as someone that likes most beers, they nail it every time.

Really enjoyed my visit here! Our table had the bacon jam & blue burger, beyond burgers, kids chicken strips and Mac n cheese. Food was delicious. The beer was pretty tasty as well, but think there was a mix up when they were handed to us!

Food is excellent, service was...weird. All the stars are for the kitchen. Not sure what I did to piss off the staff, but I caught hell without ever opening my mouth except to make my order and pay. I was in the industry for half my life, front and back of the house, starting in the dish pit. I don't hassle anyone, give plenty of respect, and tip like a service industry worker. When I would treat someone like crap at my bar back in the day, they usually did something to earn that treatment. It was confusing to have someone act angry at me for trying to tab out. Sorry for trying to pay I guess? Maybe we were staying too long? Our group packed up to leave as soon as we realized they were closing, but they could've said something? Maybe not--some owners have a BS policy about not letting patrons know the place is closing, but it's weird for a bar to skip doing last call. I've only encountered policies like that when I worked places owned by people who never actually worked in the industry before opening a restaurant. I was enthusiastic about supporting Heathen, especially after they got vandalized by bigots, but I didn't deserve being treated like that. My first impulse was to try and smooth things over, but after thinking about it for a bit and reflecting on my previous experiences there, I can't say I've had many positive interactions with FOH staff. They all seem kind of irritated or angry, like they wish customers weren't there. Angry-acting staff is often a sign of bad morale or a toxic work culture, so I want to sympathize with them for whatever's happening behind the scenes, but I'm not the reason y'all are having a bad life. Go after whoever is actually responsible for your horrible work culture. Form a union or something. Long story short, the staff REALLY don't seem to like the customers. Since you can't throw a rock in the PNW without hitting a good brewery, I recommend picking a different bar until this place gets its attitude corrected. I haven't tasted anything Heathen does in the taps or in the kitchen that I can't get somewhere else. Definitely not worth the hassle or the abuse.

I really enjoyed Heathen. It did feel a little strange to be my own server, going up to the bar to order food and drinks. I tried the special burrito, it was insanely delicious. It was filling, but I couldn't stop eating! The ciders were another pleasant surprise. The pear cider was crisp and refreshing. The other cider I tried tasted like an apple pie! It was the best dessert drink! Definitely explore the menu!

I gave a 5 star glowing review a few years ago but am sadly updating. Food and beverage still great and nice outdoor seating. I know labor is a challenge for all businesses but at the end of the day customer service is super important. On our visit to Heathen this week, one of the two people working the bar was throwing off "I don't give a s***" vibes so hard, was hyper aggressive and just generally ruined the ordering and reordering experience. On our second round of drinks she continued emptying glasses from the washer, singing and dancing, while the other person working was taking orders from a 6 deep line of people. Eventually the other person got our new drink orders while the bad attitude person continued singing and emptying glasses on the other side of the bar. We were planning to stay for a few rounds but just went somewhere else. If someone doesn't want to work in public facing customer service there are tons of other jobs out there.

I would definitely suggest checking this place out. Thought the beer selection was great. There's something for everyone. The server was generous with the tastes. Please don't expect this though, your experience may vary coinciding with the time of day and more importantly your attitude. I mean be nice and treat people like human beings in life without expectations and, surprise, people may reciprocate. And back to the review. Talking with the server he mentioned he was a bit tired because he was covering a shift unexpectedly. This in no way affected his awesome level of customer service. He had some great beer suggestions and seemed to really enjoy when he'd nail the flavors he thought I'd like. The food was good too. The portions were quite large for happy hour. Which was awesome. I would definitely suggest stopping in if you haven't already.

There are taps and taps and taps here -- lots of beers to choose from. I drank a hazy IPA and loved it. The food menu includes burgers, pizzas and salads. My burger was A-OK, but nothing special. We sat outside on a warm evening and felt comfortable for most of the time. A problem is that Heathen closes surprisingly early (9PM) and makes people feel as if they ought to be moving on once the clock strikes 8:15PM or so. The last call for beer is at 8:30; after that, the staff is eager to start grabbing glasses and plates so that they can sweep and mop, and then turn off the lights.

I caught up with my wife and a friend here, after having to run a few errands, so I wasn't privy to "the full experience". I simply sidled up to the bar to join them, ordered a cocktail and a bowl of the Beer Cheese soup, and tried to get up to speed on their conversation. Our server, Britain, was engaging, friendly and helpful, and an example of stellar customer service; there need to be more servers like him in the world. He introduced himself by name, inquired about mine, and answered all of my questions about the menu. I ended up ordering the Rotating Keg Cocktail, which currently was a strawberry lemonade with vodka. A little frilly for my tastes, but I'm not much of a beer or cider guy, so it did the trick nicely, and was better than I'd expected. The soup, however, was phenomenal! On par with the one at Kell's, which is my all-time favorite, so that's a high compliment. I knew we were moving on to other places, so that's where my order ended, but not without a longing glance at several other things on the menu, that I wished I'd had the time to try out. A return visit is guaranteed, and not just because our friend comes here religiously, every week, like he's attending mass. The pub grub lives up to the "feral" name, the service is divine, and the prices are a pittance for the quality. No need for confession, folks: here, you can be a heathen without getting burnt at the stake (or the wallet).

I always find great beers and delicious food at Heathen Feral. My favorite has to be the Bacon Jam and Blue Burger with Herbery Fries with blue cheese fondue, it's to die for. The staff is always on point and friendly. It's one of my go to places!

The bar here is a great spot if you're looking to hangout with some friends and drink beers. We ordered food, but it wasn't anything super great to write about... typical bar food. The beer selection is really awesome though. They have TONS of taps and really yummy sour beers available. I brought my service dog and they were extra kind to him while he hung out in the bag I carry him around in. They have a dog friendly patio, but I didn't check out that spot.

Food is not that impressive, kind of typical cheap bar food. But the ambience, especially the outdoor seating is fun and welcoming and the drinks are great! Hard to beat the variety and range of beers/ciders they have.

The pizza and Carne Asada nachos were really good, they have indoor or outdoor seating and there was a live band. Fun place.

A go to spot for 49er fans!! I am visiting from California and they were welcoming professional and the food menu was filled. Stop by and have a great time. Especially for football!

An awesome place for dog parents to enjoy some great brews and food with their pups! The patio is large with plenty of tables for social distancing. There's also an enclosed area. There are no table service, so get there before the lunch rush to avoid the long order line We ordered some wings (dry with side of sauce) and a burger and fries. The wings were absolutely fantastic! It was crispy, almost flaky like with a beautiful smoky flavorful- we didn't even need the sauce!! Yes, it was so awesome we devoured it before I could remember to take a picture! The burger was not bad. I loved the soft brioche buns! There's definitely a lot on the menu and we're looking forward to our next visit! I promise a pic of the wings! until then, enjoy this pic of my boy soaking in the sun!

The food and beer were good, but the music playlist put on by the bartender was straight trash. Ruined the whole experience. Like bother, do you have any taste or shame? Did you put make the worst playlist of all time into a ChatGPT prompt? Who hurt you and why do subject good people to your whack ass playlists. Don't know who gave this guy the green light to put on his personal playlist but that needs to be taken away.

You have a terrible online presence and incredibly frustrating line of contact for your customers. You have provided NO way to determine if your business if open or closed on a particular day or time. Best I got was a very rude message saying that the mailbox is full so hang up. I will highly recommend this place to all of my enemies. LOL

I've been regularly going to Heathens since I moved to Vancouver. Small inside but plenty of outdoor seating with areas that are covered or by fire. In my opinion a majority of the food menu is not impressive and overpriced. Becomes worth it during Happy Hour. I come here for the great beer selection, best large soft pretzel in Vancouver, and excellent customer service.

Nice atmosphere, friendly service and good selection of beer. It has a full bar and serves brunch, so not bad!

No Service Just rude. People that work there do not have the ability to smile. They are very unhappy We rarely go out and this really ruined our rare eating out experience. Will not go back.

I love their burgers. It can be a bit loud around happy hour. They have a good bar and wait staff is pretty good, although they could hire a few more.

I like big tacos and I cannot lie. These bad boys were massive-- and delicious. I had 2 sour beers which were a perfect pairing. I visited with some family and we were all very pleased with the food and ample beer selections. I would definitely make some repeat visits especially since the entire menu sounded good. Would smash (another taco into my face).

Best food I've had in Vancouver! Well done. I ordered the fish tacos which were well proportioned and tasted delicious. Probably the best fish tacos I've had in the PNW. You can tell they have a real chef back there in the kitchen. We will be back!

Salad with grilled chicken from the happy hour menu was well worth the reasonable price. They were out of the beer I wanted but suggested another that I liked. The ordering process was a bit confusing or I would have done 5 stars. We will go back again.

I had a great experience here, we came in before heading over to clark college for my sons taekwondo tournament. We nabbed a promo for their brunch (seems to be a new thing) so we had four whole items to choose. French Toast: First up for the kids we had to try the KIDS, it was disappointing, I expected a serious thicker, and it was just not quite what I was wanting. Chicken Fried Steak: Came with gravy, potatos, and the steak. The meat was as expected, its no prime cut but done well it's amazing. It was! Potatos were crispy goodness, add salt. Oh so good that gravy!! I liked the whole plate Breakfast burger/Sandwich: It was just multile kids of meat, some egg, fried onions, great bread and looked like a hot mess. Came with those great potatos, and hold my groceries it was good eggs with it. Eggs Benedict: Hollandaise sauce was better tan the standard, oh boy the meat was good, and let's just say those eggs were cooked perfect. Perfect, oh and more of those great, crispy edges potots!!

Food is great. Service is great for a Thursday night. Ambiance is great. I'd come here again no question asked. Love to try new restaurants. I loved the location more than anything.

I came here when this place place first opened, it was nice and clean. Now it's horrible. Food splattered all over the walls, it's filthy, customer service is terrible. Seems the staff doesn't work well together or have a routine. Isn't worth the money, or if you go -- only go during happy hour.
