An Irish bar like they make 'em in Ireland. That is to say that it's sort of a drab hole in the wall that makes no pretense at being anything but a great little place to drink. You actually need to walk through another bar to get here, which makes it…More »

Went in for lunch on a Wednesday afternoon. Had spicy basil noodles, which were delicious, actually spicy, and at $7.95, a good deal. Service was also far better than I have come to expect from Thai places - I actually saw our server run when she…More »

Very convenient - one minute walk from Waterfront station. Pretty good patio, though it was like a sauna when we were here because the heaters were a-blasting. Beer was tasty - especially the framboise (tastes easy but higher in alcohol than you'd…More »

I was looking for gluten free take out at the end of a long day of walking and stopped here. The namesake burritos were out (flour tortillas) but they use corn tortillas for their soft tacos, so I got those. Three tacos for $7 something. Could be…More »

Moby's doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's surprisingly large and nice inside. Definitely a proper pub, not a chi chi gastropub, they serve excellent food and offer one of the best indoor views I have ever enjoyed. Certainly the best I…More »

One not to miss on the island. There's the tasting room, where you can sample all of their cheeses, olives, and spreads. There's a lovely garden and tables where you can stop for a rest or a snack. And they've set up a little self guided tour around…More »

I had a fantastic experience with Salt Spring Air. Booking online was simple and I received a confirmation email within 24 hours, as promised. When I wrote with questions about scheduling and luggage they were quick to respond and pleasant when they…More »
