The Village Café and Deli

After watching a segment on “You Gotta Eat Here”, we decided we would check it out. So far John has been right on in his showcasing a restaurant. It is teeny-tiny in size. But it is clean and the servers are the friendliest. Our server, Swill, was awesome.

We  already knew what we were going to order before we even entered the establishment. The description John gave did it for us.

Don ordered the 1/2 West Coast Benny served on a potato latke. Did you really think he would order anything different?   Of course not.  It came with fresh fruit as well . He ordered a ‘small’ orange juice. Well…it is served in a beer glass and not so small at that. He said it was the freshest orange juice he had ever had.

I ordered the 1/2 Back Benny. This is egg, back bacon served on potato latke. Comes with fresh fruit and, when we finished our plates, we said we could have gone the full order. It was delicious. Both come with a Hollandaise sauce and that was delicious. In fact, our server, even offered to go into the kitchen and ask them to prepare the other half of our order. We just laughed and passed on that.

Hot coffees rounded out the meal.

Brown Bridge Pub, Princeton, B.C.

Today, on our way home from Vancouver, we wanted to stop for a quick lunch break without having to leave the highway and go down into the town. We had already been to a couple of restaurants and were not happy with them and decided to try this one.

When you enter, it looks just like a good, clean pub. We ordered coffee and a cola to drink and Don ordered the one piece cod and fries and I, thinking ever so cautiously, would order a salad. I dread doing this because every salad I have ever ordered in a restaurant puts onions in and on the dish.

Well, our server was a real delight and the food was exceptional.  Don really enjoyed the fish and chips. It was piping hot and came with a great tasting coleslaw.

My ginger beef salad was so wonderful…..the beef was super tender and lots of  it on top of fresh spinach, grated purple and green cabbage (just enough, not too much) and cherry tomatoes.  I am still licking my lips. 

It was our first visit and certainly won’t be our last. Clean, great pricing and great food. If they had a web page I would include it, but they don’t. If you drive through Princeton, give them a try. It is worth it just to stop and take a break.
