Backstreet WEST Pub & Pizza — Restaurant in Lethbridge

We’ve been to BackStreet Pub & Pizza for dinner last night. Backstreet Pub & Pizza is located on Laval Blvd West, Lethbridge, which is 10 mins drive from our house. It’s a medium size PUB. People can eat food, watch TV, and play pools in this place, which is very cool. We arrived the Pub around 6:30pm. It was not busy since it’s a weekday ?! The pub looks very fancy. You can see the different Hockey Team Shirts on the Wall for decoration. I guess this place will be really busy during the Hockey Season. We found a seat quickly and waited for our server to come. After 1 or 2 mins waiting, our server came to us. She was friendly and nice. We ordered some drinks first and they came very fast. Then, we’ve ordered two Backstreet Supreme Sandwich (mixed jalapeno ranch & marinara sauce, bacon, feta, jalapenos, mozza) with different toppings and salads for dinner. Backstreet Supreme Sandwich has the same ingredients as the Pizza. They just folded pizza into the sandwich, which is a great idea and design for the sandwich. Great Job! Besides the regular sauces on the sandwich, people can also add three different toppings from the list (anchovies, back bacon, black olives, cheddar, chicken, feta cheese, fresh tomatoes, green onions, green peppers, ground beef, ham, hot peppers, italian sausage, jalapenos, jalapeno ranch sauce, mozza, mushrooms, onions, pepperoni, pineapple, salami, shrimp, spicy beef, spicy sauce, strip bacon, tropical sauce), which will give different flavors to the sandwich. My boyfriend choose cheddar, pineapple, and italian sausage. Mine was different from him and I had cheddar, ground beef and pineapple. The food came fast. The sandwich is very fresh and well cooked. They were very tasty and large size. We love them. I couldn’t finish all sandwiches by myself. We have Green Salad and Caser Salad one each. The vegetable is fresh and the salad dressing is great too. The prices of the food are around $13.00 per sandwich, which not expensive. We have a great experience at BackStreet...

Let's address this Jamie sandwich issue.

I have heard great things about this Pub and mainly everyone talks about the Jamie sandwich. So I had to go and get it I didn't really know what it was but I ordered it sight unseen. You get to pick three toppings that come on a pizza, your choice. What they do is simply make a small pizza, cut it into four pieces then put a piece of romaine lettuce and a tomato in between, then fold the other two pieces on top. When I heard this was a pizza that had lettuce and tomato in it I instantly cringed at having hot cooked lettuce in the middle of a pizza. I really don't understand how this is something to Rave about.

I must give credit that the dough and cheese were very good but I would much rather order a pizza next time. If Hot wilted lettuce is your type of thing try the Jamie sandwich!

The interior of the pub has a feel that is reminiscent of Ireland pubs. Lots of dark wood and comfortable lighting makes this room a place to enjoy several beers in with good friends. I would definitely come back to this place and try more of the menu.

In my one experience here I found the service was very good very quick and very friendly. I could see this place being very busy on a Friday and Saturday night. I think it's reasonable to expect that it may take a little extra time on busy nights for service. That's okay that's normal to me.

I look forward to spending a little bit more time here as I have just moved into the...

My friends and I have been going to Backstreet religiously for years. Since I first started going in 2015, the service, staff, and food has been consistent and exceeded expectation on nearly every occasion. But ever since late last summer, things have gone downhill fast. Prices are higher and quality is lower for food and service. They have replaced some of their best servers with ditsy, young girls who seem to think the way to get a bigger tip is to choose one or two guys and give them all of their attention, while ignoring everyone else in the bar. Portion sizes are abysmal and the food comes out looking and tasting different every time. After my last experience, where my two friends and I sat down at a table and watched the only server flirt with a younger guy seated at the bar for 10 minutes before she even noticed us, I definitely will not be coming back. Not sure what's caused such a huge shift, but they should stick to what's worked and kept them in business for years or they are going to be just another local bar that ends up closing their...
