The Occidental - Quesnel

The venue is absolutely incredible with the best staff and the nicest owners, Barry and Louise McKillican. I can honestly say that the sound and lighting production is top-notch. A big thank you to the sound engineer, Brian McKillican, for being such a professional. Thank you to Occidental for supporting live music!

The Occidental in Quesnel is the top live music venue in the interior of British Columbia. It sets itself apart from other local venues for several reasons. First and foremost, it is operated by a local family of musicians who bring a wealth of experience in the entertainment industry. The variety of original entertainment showcased throughout the week spans a wide range of styles and genres. The stage and sound system are truly top-notch. Additionally, the venue offers a smoking lounge, billiards, a large video screen, and an incredible pub menu. The food is fantastic! - Randy Randle from Williams Lake.

This restaurant is fantastic! The food is delicious and reasonably priced, and the staff is incredibly efficient and friendly. I had a great experience every time I visited over the course of 4 days. I highly recommend this place.

First time in Quesnel and I took in a show of the local Foxxie Follies Burlesque troupe. The Occidental is an awesome venue for live shows, great staff, good food, and some spicy jalapeño peppers on their nachos that will set the back of your mouth on fire. 5 stars

Just had the hot turkey sandwich with zuchinni chicken soup. Was sooo good we always love when we go, great service and great food all the time!
