Great happy hour specials. Food was good and beer selection very good. If you are going to watch a sport event you better hope it is what everyone else wants to see....all the TVs had to be on the same channel....very odd, otherwise 5 stars.

Everyone was very nice if you want to try different beers this is the best place I can think of take a cab I didn't notice a lot of parking but I did not have to find a spot so not sure

Over-priced

This is our local bar and so we really want to support it. But having done so for 3 yrs, we're ready to call it a day. The prices have crept up progressively, the food menu has become sub-par, and the venue is looking tired. They claim to have beers from around the world but whenever we've tried ordering something... more

Lost it's luster

We wanted to try Luxalune based upon reading some other reviews. Sadly, did not live up to expectations. In general the facility looks tired and worn, getting a bit threadbare in spots and definitely past needing a major makeover.
Decent beer menu. They were pushing Farmery Beer so we gave it a try and didn't find it particularly satisfying... bit... more

Better than pub food

I met a big group of friends here on a Saturday night... too bad they don't like taking reservations, but luckily we all found tables. It's a nice looking pub and the service is very good too. I ordered loaded fries and they was delicious! Potato wedges, topped with cheese, onions and green peppers which reminds you of a Mexican... more

Nothing too special

Went here first for a bachelor party pub crawl. They have a nice selection of beers from around the world but many of them are fairly expensive. Something I noticed when i was there was the temperature was quite hot and humid inside, not fun to be sweating as you are drinking. The tvs were enjoyable to watch the hockey... more

Not what it used to be

My husband and I went to what was once one of our favourite places only to be sorrily disappointed. Arrived shortly after 5 pm and found they no longer had the happy hour appetizer specials. Food quality and portion size was not at all what it once was. What used to be amazing,homemade, fresh pizza, now tasted of similar quality... more

Like the Farmery beer

Was at Luxalune with a large group of friends. The establishment was packed on a Saturday night. Service was pretty good despite it being so busy. Drank a variety of beers. All very good. Something for everyone. The Farmery beer was really good. We ordered the 'oven baked dry ribs'. Oh man are they good. They really do fall off... more

Good food, but maybe not quite 'gastropub' good

Pub atmosphere, including pool tables. A little noisy, in a nice way. Menu not as fancy as a gastropub would be in Europe, and rather limited.Great selection of beers. Everything we had was good. I especially liked the Halibut Tacos, and my brother enjoyed his Thai Pizza.

The beer selection is great but you can find pretty much everything they serve at the liquor mart. It would be nice to see a selection of unique bets you can't get anywhere else. The food is good although the tapas seem over priced for the portion size. Good atmosphere and nice place to go worth friends.

Love the beer selection and the casual atmosphere. We went on wednesday so it was pretty chill, but I could see this place being pretty busy on a weekend.

I had the loaded pub fries with pulled pork. They were delicious. The greek flatbread was yummy too.

On the weekends they have live music so definitely going to go back to check that out.

Great Place to Taste a World of Beers

I've been here twice and look forward to going back. The owners are very friendly and accommodating, the atmosphere is bar scene and seating can be awkward if you are a very tall person and placed at one of the sofa areas were you basically eat off a coffee table. Food is very good. It is very loud inside so... more

Happy to return

I had been here years ago and there wasnt' anything to write home about. I recently went with a group of friends and I was pleasantly surprised. It looked completely different. It is more cozy and pub like. There is a great selection of beer and the menu is vast. Our service was friendly and promt and EVERYONE enjoyed the... more

OK place for watching the game

Was at Luxalune the other night to watch the Jets game. Place has a good atmosphere - especially when it's packed with sports fans. Good selection of beers. Food is pretty average and kind of pricey for what you get - portions are small. Selection is also limited. The menus are so tattered you'd swear they were put through the... more

It's All Relative

I've been here a number of times over the years and finally decided to review this place. The main distinguishing feature of this "gastropub" is the beer selection, and it does, indeed, have the largest selection of bottles in Manitoba. However, any well-travelled beer geek will find the selection mediocre, as its mostly just whatever is available in Manitoba government-run... more

Beer pub with atmosphere, and good beers

Traffic was crazy on S. Osborne, time for a break from the crazies on the road instead of rusing home to make supper. New beer from Manitoba was intro;d & recommended by waitress Farmery. It was and will have it again. Appies were reasonable and tasty.

Awesome place! It's a huge space that has a few different sections to sit in ranging from booths, bar style tables/chairs to lounge style seats. There's even pool tables. I was there on a Tuesday night and the place definitely filled up by about 9 pm. It was a mixed crowd that had a casual, fun yet laid back vibe! It was lively yet you can carry a conversation with the people near you.

The... more

Amazing beer selection, good food

I've dined here about 7 times. I have never had a bad meal, although I will say I haven't always loved what I ordered. I really enjoy their pizzas (Thai chicken...wow!). The ingredients are always high quality, although it seems strange they only offer one size. They also offer them for take out. I also enjoy the goat cheese, although... more

Nice place for a beer novice

We took our 18 year old daughter out for her birthday here, her request. It was a nice introduction to the beers of the world. Our server was helpful in her beverage selection and our meal was exceptional.

Service has been horrible every time I've gone there. Servers take FOREVER to get anything to you and come back very slowly. This happens nearly every time I've been there. The managers there do not care whatsoever about their customers when concerns are brought up and that is beyond frustrating since you're there spending random amounts of money on beer (no prices listed on the menu).

A large... more

We Checked Out their New Menu

There is something immensely satisfying about supporting a neighbourhood place like Luxalune Gastropub. Most Winnipeggers know the story of the Warwaruk brothers and their efforts to save the family farm by opening Lux Sole (one of Winnipeg’s original Tapas restaurants), followed by their move to the Gastrobpub concept and Luxalune.
Our biggest decision of the evening was which on the... more

The beer selection is no better than the liquor store and because there are no prices on the menu, the bill is always a mystery.

Below Mediocre Experience and Way Overpriced

Pros: amazing selection of beer, nice open space, comfy seating, friendly staff. And the name "Luxalune" is catchy. I like that.
Cons: Expensive beer prices (also you might want to let your patrons know before they receive the bill that the beer you just recommended costs $9 per serving). I had their own craft brewed "Farmer" beer that was mediocre... more

Great Atmosphere

Good vibe, good food, good price for Pool, good service. More Winnipeggers need to check it out.

Love the wide open sapce of the room

We were on a double date with our son and his wife. To kick off the weekend of our trip to Ireland, we decided that we would love to have a pub supper. We headed downtown (and downstairs) to an unnamed location and decided to get back in the car and aim for Luxalune on south Osborne St instead. I... more

I was visiting Winnipeg and had arranged to meet up with some friends. I suggested a gastropub as the type of place we should meet and eat at and they selected Luxalune out of the myriad of restaurants that Winnipeg has to offer.

Seriously, this town is stoked full of great places to eat.

My cab got near to the place and I offered to walk the rest of the way. Since I did not want to have to... more

Worst experience

Luxalune is HORRIBLE ! I had reservations for a party and once our group arrived, the reservation was given away to someone else they thought was my group and had not confirmed their names. Then the waitress took 45 minutes to bring bottles of wine, which one was not what was ordered. Later in the evening, a traumatic experience with... more

Funky Food Experience

Luxalune has gradually transformed itself from a former poolhall into a very funky local gathering place.
Great serving staff and lots of good quality snacks at reasonable prices.
Very casual seating arrangements make for very comfortable group gatherings.
The great variety of drinks back up the snacks so you should be able to pick your own winners from the wide... more

Try their Espana Pizza - BEST I've pizza around. Great selection of beers from around the world. Highly recommend as a great place to get together.

This place is great! I love that they have beer from across the globe! I went to the Winnipeg Beer Festival and had a great time but didn't get a chance to try all of the beer so it was nice to come to this place and see them on the menu. Great place to go with a small or bigger group. Nice atmosphere, I just wish it wasn't so far away from me!

A Unique Pub

I had a great experience here. The staff was so friendly and helpful, they always have time to guide you when choosing your drink/snack. The menu is extensive and well layed out, which becomes crucial when you take into account how many choices there are! The beers are separated by region and laid out on a map. Really interesting to... more

6 of us for a birthday dinner... Food was really good. Try the Pub Fries and Delux pizza... the gyoza sauce was too thick, I'm certain it was from a bottle, not made in house. Service was ok, but not great. It was a Sunday and only two servers, at first we were almost alone in the building, so service was quick, but as the night went on service crawled to a stop. Nice atmosphere, booths were... more

christmas gathering of 26 friends

the service was very good, the atmosphere was very good but the food was not as good as it should have been. the beer sampling went over well and the pool tables are a nice thing to have for entertainment.

Disappointed...again

Luxalune is the nearest drinking establishment to a gym where I go weekly. After giving this place several chances, I won't go back. Staffing is minimalist and ridiculously slow. It seems as if half of the beers listed are out-of-stock. This isn't a good thing considering the variety of beers is supposed to be a key draw. When customers have... more

A nice afternoon on the patio

Had a nice afternoon enjoying some beers on the patio with friends. The service was timely and the server was educated in the beverage selection. I have been on numberous occations and will return soon.

Unique pub with great beer selection

I was referred to Luxalune by family who live in Winnipeg when I was in the city on business, who said the place had a large beer selection. I went there with a client on a Friday night around 8pm. We had to wait in line for twenty minutes as the place was packed. The doorperson was a young girl... more

If I was voting on just the beer they are five stars. However we met another couple here and had the food. There was nothing of note in anything we had, and in some ways (other then the beer) we regretted this choice over the other place we we thinking of meeting. Would I go back, short answer is I have not yet, but on a hot summer day, and with so much good beer I may change my mind.

They have all the beers you can possibly get in Winnipeg and a nice beer-passport book to help you decide. Very nice location, easy to park, and overall a comfortable place to go on a date or a night with some friends. Unlike some cookie-cutter lounges in the city, the music isn't obnoxiously loud. Plus the food was really good (BBQ pizza was off the hook) . We need more placed like this in... more

Luxalune - Twice disappointed - Won't go back

Surly waitress aside, my party and I were severely disappointed by what seems to be a case of false advertisement. After being told about a promotional "beer passport" which can track all the different beers you try and reward you with prizes when you complete the "tours" inside, we were extremely let-down to find that there was one beer on... more

I went to Luxalune for the first time last night for drinks and some food, with a couple of friends.

The atmosphere was nice - lots of open spaces, dark decor, and comfy couches - relaxed but a little sophisticated. The place was comfortably busy; a nice vibe but not packed. The noise level was a little higher than I'd like (people, not music) but it was still possible to have a conversation.

Came here with my siblings and my cousin and I could tell the potential this place has. Its a very cool setup with big screen tvs, ambiance music playing.

It almost looks like a bunch of living room setups though. There are a few pool tables, in which my sister kicked our a@!%s as.

It wasnt busy that night at all, but the bartenders are cool. I hopefully will come back here again

Too dark to read the menu. Too understaffed to place an order. Left

Last night my wife and I walked 15 minutes in light rain to give what is now a 4 month old Winnipeg neighborhood 'gastropub' a try. Luxalune is a large dark room with a variety of seating arrangements - low couches with coffee tables, high chairs and tables and about 8 or 9 pool tables.
There were around 35 customers... more
