Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on April 08, 2024, 12:20:08 PM Well, looks like we missed the opportunity....The Wooden Nickle is closing, due to excess costs of running. Too bad, liked the homey environment.

Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on November 29, 2024, 02:58:03 PM Any interest in breakfast at the wooden Nickle around tomorrow 10?
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on November 29, 2024, 03:25:15 PM Yeah, I'm in.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 19, 2025, 10:55:14 PM We are thinking of having breakfast this Sat at 10 at the Nickle if anyone is interested.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 20, 2025, 07:34:36 AM You know, the Nickle is not the same with the new owners. Slow service, etc. They are friendly, but just don't seem to have the organization, yet.
Lets think of an alternate place. Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Jefft on February 20, 2025, 07:51:53 AM The Nickle sucks! Woody’s Pub opens at 10 on weekends and does a good breakfast. Try that.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 20, 2025, 08:34:11 AM The Nickle sucks! Woody’s Pub opens at 10 on weekends and does a good breakfast. Try that. Works for me.Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 20, 2025, 08:36:51 AM You know, the Nickle is not the same with the new owners. Slow service, etc. They are friendly, but just don't seem to have the organization, yet. They did seam slow the last time we were there.Lets think of an alternate place. Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 20, 2025, 09:02:03 AM Woodys Pub works for me, too.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 20, 2025, 10:11:31 AM Woodys Pub works for me, too. I was just reminded that we have company coming this Sat and I need to check the calendar before I make plans ;DTitle: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 20, 2025, 11:02:57 AM Welcome to my world. 8)
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 20, 2025, 11:03:39 AM What about Friday?
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 20, 2025, 01:07:54 PM What about Friday? Bill works.I was thinking how about next sat here at the pub in Falkland and maybe see if some of the boys from Kamloops and Chase might chime in. Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 20, 2025, 05:07:56 PM Yeah, a bit longer schedule works better. Sounds like a great idea.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Hawkeye on February 20, 2025, 09:19:02 PM I'd love to come, but my son generously shared the family virus with me. I'll be isolating for a while yet.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: hardrockminer on February 21, 2025, 04:59:46 AM I could travel to Falkland for brekkie. What time and what place?
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 21, 2025, 08:04:59 AM Looks like it's next Saturday, Mar 1 at the Falkland Pub, if I'm not mistaken. 10:00.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 21, 2025, 09:50:11 AM Looks like it's next Saturday, Mar 1 at the Falkland Pub, if I'm not mistaken. 10:00. You are correct next Sat.Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: hardrockminer on February 21, 2025, 05:13:22 PM The Pub...is that the place across from the former Ranch? Can you check their hours...I seem to remember meeting there once and they weren't open for food until noon.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 22, 2025, 10:36:58 AM According to their website, they open at 9am Sats and Suns, but no breakfast on their menu. Next idea?
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 23, 2025, 04:43:17 PM According to their website, they open at 9am Sats and Suns, but no breakfast on their menu. Next idea? I wonder why they would open that early without breakfast. I tried to call but no answer but will drop by and ask them.Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 23, 2025, 06:09:30 PM Falkland pub is closed for renovations.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 23, 2025, 06:15:47 PM I am willing to go to Woodys next Sat but not sure if the Kamloops, Chase boys would go that far.
The way the weather is I might just insure my bike and ride down. Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: hardrockminer on February 23, 2025, 08:26:29 PM Is the Ranch still closed?
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 24, 2025, 09:48:46 AM Is the Ranch still closed? Different owners and they don't open till 11am and no breakfast. Now there is Dinner 97 in Westwold that could be an option.They have some round booths that a few people could fit into depending how many would be coming. Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 24, 2025, 10:08:46 AM I'd drive to Westwold.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 24, 2025, 02:14:08 PM I'd drive to Westwold. Ok lets go there. I will see how many are coming and get a both saved if needed.Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: hardrockminer on February 24, 2025, 03:54:51 PM I'll be there.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Galactica on February 24, 2025, 09:45:41 PM I’ve driven or ridden past there many times but never stopped. How about a review when you’ve finished?
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kilowop on February 24, 2025, 10:52:23 PM I was at the place in Westwood several times last summer. It seems to be quite popular, and when I was there, the food was good, like REAL Fries, not those damn frozen things. BUT like most places, a lot depends on who the cook is on the day you go there. It's a funky place with Nostalgia pictures, record album jackets on the walls, etc. They have several booths that will hold 6 -8 people if you're friendly, plus normal tables. I have nothing particular on my Schedule for Saturday, so I'll watch how this develops, and plan to be there to get caught up on the winter Hi-Jinks.
CHEERS Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 25, 2025, 07:30:07 PM Be good to see you Ron. So we have three going so far :o
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Hawkeye on February 25, 2025, 09:21:34 PM I'd like to come if I'm over this bug. So far, it doesn't look good. Wouldn't want any of you to catch it.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 26, 2025, 08:12:44 AM Be good to see you Ron. So we have three going so far :o Hope i'm one of them. Working on Claudio to convince him to leave his shop. Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kilowop on February 26, 2025, 10:06:20 AM Weather forecast for Saturday is looking decent. Partly sunny and plus 12. If that holds up, I'll be heading for Westwold for sure.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Jefft on February 27, 2025, 07:52:16 AM I will attend
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kilowop on February 27, 2025, 12:20:15 PM Confirm arrival time for group in Westwold please.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 27, 2025, 01:44:30 PM Confirm arrival time for group in Westwold please. I was thinking 10 if that works.Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: hardrockminer on February 28, 2025, 08:32:30 AM Crap! I've made two commitments for Saturday. I have to go to Salmon Arm. Will have to miss breakfast in Westwold.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 28, 2025, 01:29:12 PM Looks like Diner 97 is closed until the middle of march.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: Runningdog on February 28, 2025, 02:02:33 PM OK, change of venue. Heard from a reliable source that Eatology in downtown Vernon is good. 3100 30st, in the old bus depot. 10am Saturday. Sorry about that, you folks from the north, but if you don't feel like driving that far, we can do a meet in Westwold or even closer to you further into the spring.
Title: Re: Wooden Nickle Post by: kaw74 on February 28, 2025, 07:25:20 PM See you there.
