Nestled on 7th Avenue in Keremeos, this spot carries the warmth of a well-loved neighborhood pub, where the pace slows just enough to savor the small, honest pleasures of an afternoon or evening well spent.
Inside, the atmosphere hums with a comfortable mix of rustic charm and casual ease.

The menu mirrors this spirit of thoughtful comfort.

There’s also the ease of knowing your furry companion is welcome here, adding to the sense that this is a spot woven into the fabric of community life.

Great place! Drove up from Vancouver. Met a friend here. The server (sorry didn’t catch her name) was extremely attentive and friendly. Coffee is delicious btw. My salad scrumptious. My friend tried two different beers and loved both. I will be back next time I’m in town.

Jasmine - our server - was the only person working the floor this afternoon amd she rocked it! The food was delicious and the service exceptional. I had the Ghetto burger with a Ceasar salad and it was amazing. Highly recommend this restaurant. Bonus that it was dog-friendly!

Came in because it looked really nostalgic from tbe outside and inside was just as good..decided to sit inside since it was 36 that day! Beautiful building! Lets start with the drinks(seriously so many options of beer and ciders, tried one of they're newer ciders they had on tap from a winery near buy it was the apple/plum flavour it was absolutely delicous. Actually drove to the winery after to pick up to bottles also ordered food i got a burger and gries and my gf got fish and chips. The burger was thick and tasty with a fair amount of fries on the side, my gf really enjoyed the fish and chips it also came with an applecoleslaw which she said was the best part. After we checked out the patio dining area which was beautiful and actually really covered from the sun, im pretty sure will sit there next time. The waitresses were all very nice (but seemed busy) and still checked in on us, the food came decently fast so absolutely check this place out even if your just going um for a drink or two.

Had one of the best burgers ever and also one of the best cream ales. The Tin Whistle Peach Cream Ale was off the charts. The Neighbourhood Hazy IPA was also fantastic. What a great stop on my my trip!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at The Wrong Turn Tavern. We ordered absolutely phenomenal Bacon Poutine. House smoked bacon with delicious gravy & never-ending cheese curds. For our mains we had burgers & a sandwich. Fries were awesome! So crispy and delicious. Our only complaint was the mixture of Tavern music with the kitchens. A bit distracting but otherwise awesome food! Not particularly hot food but good

Been here the last 3 years, servers are always great. Great patio. Food was amazing first 2 years, this year food is still good, but something was off.. Great for burgers and beer. Be back next year.

We went there on our way on a road trip and the place was really nice. The service by staff was really nice and food was also great. Just went without any expectations and found a really good one

Traditional tavern vibe. Ordered a steak and it was perfectly cooked. Great place to grab a meal.
