The Vicious Poodle

This place is awesome!

Super fun! Great cocktail selection and fun events, like weekly karaoke nights, bingo and drag shows. Hidden gem that I would recommend

Kendall the bartender is awesome She will make sure u have a great time

Second time going to the sapphic night. The music was not cluby or dance centric whatsoever, can’t we just get some y2k dance beats also what is up with the mixing, there is no transition between songs! Also second time going one of the bartenders was very rude after no tip for a $16 dollar drink and $8 shot, she didn’t give a straw, lemon, or lime and when we waited for a few minutes to ask her for one because we were on the opposite end of the bar she said “no tip, no straw” and continued on her way. I get it if your busy and you forgot but not saying hello to someone and then being rude when they don’t give you a tip is disappointing as we had so much fun the first time we came

i love kendall and kelly and michaela and tash and elvis and orionx2 and JASON. Jason has the best laugh! i miss anne :,( best place to be gay in victoria!!!

We stood at the entry and were greeted fast. They advised us about better tables with better views. Great food!

Glad it’s here and our service was friendly tho the no-self-seating sign is a bit odd when no one greats you at the door. Huge tip to bring your earplugs for events folks, very loud and possibly some of the worst acoustics and PA tuning I’ve heard. Seems like the space could really benefit from a professional consult and acoustic treatment.

The Vicious Poodle just took the classic Shaft to a whole new level with their frozen version. Sipping this on the patio on a sunny day Absolute perfection ! Highly recommend.

A great spot, especially for the LGBT friendly. Excellent service and a friendly, cozy location during the day when our group regularly visits for our Friday after-work drink and bites. They regularly host events for the more adventurous as well. The first Friday of each month, they host Bear and Leather Night, clear some space for dancing, and bring in with go-go dancers and a DJ. Keep an eye out on the schedule for more events like drag brunches, bingo, and cabarets.
