Dakoda's Sports Bar & Grill / Dakoda's Pub – Cozy Kelowna Spot for Great Food, Drinks & Live Entertainment

Stopped by Dakota’s Bar & Grill in Kelowna and honestly, it was such a refreshing experience. The vibe here is totally different from your usual bar — it’s got this warm, laid-back energy that instantly makes you feel comfortable. You can tell it’s a place where regulars and new faces mix easily, and everyone we met — staff and guests — was super friendly and welcoming. The food really surprised us in the best way. The protein in our sandwich was perfectly cooked, juicy, and flavorful. And the cheese? Just the right amount — enough to add richness without overpowering anything. One of our sandwiches was a little extra crispy, but not in a bad way — still super enjoyable. It felt like they actually care about what they’re serving. There’s something about Dakota’s that makes you want to stick around a little longer — maybe it’s the cozy interior, the vibe at the bar, or the fact that you don’t feel rushed. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more food off the menu. If you’re in Kelowna and want a chill spot with great service and solid eats, give this place a shot!

Nice local spot. The place is huge with a dining room, bar, backroom and more. Great for a casual meal, watching the game, or hitting up a show on comedy night. Food was fresh and tasty. They're not stingy with sauces and the food is good value overall. Lots of drink variety at fair prices too. I'll be a regular soon. Make sure to check out the specials online.

Our server was excellent, I can’t remember her name but she was very down to earth and hilarious and the food was very good! We had beef dips with a fabulous Caesar salad snd also a BLTC which was amazing!

This was another place that I discovered while vacationing in Kelowna, that I wished I could bring home with me. The atmosphere was great, just wish I could have stayed for one of the comedy shows. Food was amazing, service was attentive and friendly, prices were unreal!! I had the fish tacos and they were among the best I've ever had.

The family decided on a late lunch at this Pub. Service was slow, staff pre-occupied, but once we got the food it was appetizing and very delicious. The portions are huge even the very hungry end up with a "take-home" box. One of the best Caesar Salads in town. The Club house was like a Tower architected on a white plate. We didn't care for the yam fries, wonder if they were breaded with Corn Flakes? We will be back but hopefully we don't have to wait as long to be served.

A lot of laughing happened that night. The service was very good. We had our Christmas party there and the food was very good. The comedians had us laughing during the whole show.

Happy with the food and service here! Although Wednesday nights are super busy, they accommodated our 5 people family pretty quickly. The food came a bit late, which was the only thing we would’ve wanted differently, haha otherwise, the food, beer, vibe and servers were great!
