   The experience and vibe is fun, however the food is just basic and nothing special, and we found it overpriced for what it was. The service was good but quite slow. After dinner we went bowling, which was fun. It was a bit weird as we only had one lane booked and then you’re sharing a laneway with strangers, so I would suggest going with Bigger group and renting two lanes.

   The servers may need a bit more training, some of them are rude. Food was good and the restaurant is very clean, but servers could be better. Even if they are new, a simple sorry goes a long way.

   Booked reservations sat us beside the door. half of tables food was not very good very sour guacamole. Server seemed annoyed with questions about altering a menu item, only seemed to care as we were paying. Ceaser was hard to drink and I love ceasers. $140 for 2 single patty burgers 2 tiny tacos a burrito and 3 drinks seems a bit high. Definitely seems like a fun place to drink, bowl and have some snacks but dining experience was a bit disappointing. All that said though Vernon needs places like this I hope the food can improve I would hate to see this place close had a lot of fun on upper floor the previous times we have gone to the BNA.

   Hot new spot to eat in Vernon. Fun atmosphere with an intent to host families and friends by providing activities such as bowling and arcade games along with a food menu that provides interesting options for all tastes. Have been here a few times and intend to keep coming back!

   Overall a great place, food was average nothing amazing or unique but decent quality for the price. Beer was great, really good selection. Kids had fun bowling after dinner.

   Went tonight for Mothers Day.. I am happy BNA has located here in Coldstream/Vernon area because something was needed. The environment/ambiance is good. The concept is good. However the food needs some work.. We have been there three times in the past hoping the food would be better than the last. Each time we have been disappointed. The beef was not marinated or cooked long enough for it to fall apart. It's hard and you would have to cut it with a knife. That's not what is intended. My mother's Rigatoni was off and lacked flavour. My Dad's chicken was spicy but the dish needed work. Overall the food is pretending something that it's not. As I said, great concept but the food needs work. Either hire a chef who knows what he is doing and don't let food out of the kitchen that is sub-par. We live close but as I told my wife if feel we paid a decent dollar for something less than adequate. I did have your lager beer again .... perhaps it needs more hops. It almost seems watered down. Anyway maybe next time.

   Anthony, thank-you for your honest review. We very much appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and allowing us the opportunity to learn from it. The detailed feedback is really helpful. I wish we had knocked it out of the park every time, but I'm confident we can continue to improve and hit the standards we strive for. My main regret is that you didn't feel your money was well spent. Providing value to our guests is something we're passionate about, but we've obviously fallen short and I apologize. I know our team will work to do a much better job of this in future and your input will help us in doing that. It means a lot that you still have positive comments despite these issues, and I hope that we'll have the opportunity to welcome you again and put our best foot forward

   Bowling was very fun and well run. Service at the lane was fantastic. Ate at a table afterwards and food was spectacular. Very impressed!

   This is my second time to BNA since it has been open. I must say, the service was amazing both times. I used to work in the service industry and it seems service is just not a thing anymore but BNA has proven that wrong! The server was amazing, funny , checked in on us and provided great knowledge of the menu. The atmosphere is perfect for any occasion. I am booked for dinner and bowling again this Friday and can’t wait. Thanks from a new regular !

It really means a lot that you've chosen to join us on multiple occasions, and we'll look forward to welcoming you again on Friday! Thanks again for taking the time to share your compliments.

    The new Restuarant is a great addition to Vernon, the atmosphere very relaxed and enjoyable. The food is limited and either very hot ( spice) or no taste. We did not feel our money well spent, best wishes for success
