The Library Pub and Merchant Wine Tavern — Restaurant in Wolfville

Came here to grab some before dinner drinks and bites. Had great upstairs service and found the staff to be exceptional.

After the Library Pub we headed to the Church (we had been on their waitlist) for supper, but arrived to find out we had been bumped off the list.

We decided to head back to the Library Pub were we decided to take a booth downstairs and have dinner.

We have two servers (Abby & Dom) attending to our party of 5 all evening, never once dropping the ball. The communication between the staff was very fluid and their recommendations for food and drink were top notch.

We ended up staying and drinking until they closed. I will definitely be back to the Library Pub anytime I'm in the area. The entire experience was great. The atmosphere, the staff, the food! Everything about this place was exceptional.

The Library Pub may not be the newest restaurant / cafe / bar in town, but it's still, in my opinion, the best place in town.

To the owners, you have some of the best staff I have ever encountered...

Sat down for dinner there last night. Was charmed by Eva, fantastic server who’s talents are frankly wasted at this establishment.

Appeared to only be two members of staff working that night. Place didn’t seem overall that busy but food took a very long time to arrive. When it did arrive it was just ok. Nothing wrong with it but nothing to write home about either.

The location has two bars on the premises, one upstairs and one on the main floor. I was shocked to learn that some drinks can only be made upstairs and some only downstairs. Forcing the staff to run up and down the stairs with trays of drinks. Perhaps the most inefficient system I have ever seen.

I was also shocked that there didn’t seem to be any manager on duty on a Friday night to assist their employees. I feel terrible for the servers having to work in this inefficiently run and poorly managed restaurant.

Plenty of other restaurants...

Went upstairs - wanted to like it, and the decor was very nice but I left feeling a bit disappointed. It was hot and loud (even with the music turned down BC of the low ceilings) and I felt bad for our server. She had a full house upstairs, bartending, serving, taking payments and (I think) doing all her own salads etc. with nobody helping her. This included pulling drinks for downstairs for some reason. Kitchen was slow and they mistakenly told her they were out of the item, we reordered, then it turned out that they did have enough for us and it was already cooking so the poor lady had to traipse back to us to make sure we still wanted our original order.

Food was good when we got it, fish was tasty. Portions (even for the "full size" items) was a bit small and was pretty short on sides. I left hungry and hot and regretting I didn't like it more because I really...
