Fluid Grill - Courtenay

Went to Fluid for a birthday treat and was deeply disappointed to discover that almost all vegetarian options have been removed from the menu, including their delicious falafel option as a veggie burger!!! Fluid had previously been one of a handful of local establishments that had a impressive selection for vegetarians such as myself, but it's like they have time travelled back to the 80s, or perhaps succumbed to current meat only fads, and not even the salads are vegetarian anymore! I know that times are hard and costs are rising, but the per unit cost of a falafel is lower than that of beef, and yet you can charge the same, or even more, meaning you stand to make MORE profit when you have this option on your menu! This is a business decision that just does NOT make sense.... and restaurants in Vancouver that have made similar choices for cost cutting reasons have had to close their doors. Vegetarian options: Next to nothing they removed their vegetarian options and no longer have a menu symbol for veggie friendly.

I have a hard adjusting to inflation. Lol The price of everything has jumped and I understand that but, unfortunately, I know how much less things used to cost. The food was excellent and so was the service. It was good pub fare at the going rate. The milkshake IPA beer was really good. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner
