Hazy IPA is my favourite! But all the beers are awesome. This became a local favourite the day it opened in 2020. They have small menu items for eating as well!

Dinner

Voted top 4 restaurants in Canada. Pluvio is truly an experience. It's quite pricey, but every bite makes it well worth it. The cocktails are fantastic as well! You need reservations well in advance.

Great dinner option, make reservations! Though I will say I think their brunch is even better! They're known for their friend chicken waffles.

My favourite is the DAVEY JONES! Shipwreck opened in 2021, I would argue it rivals or even beats Abbondanza Pizza (another local favourite).

While we're on the pizza train - try both and see which you prefer! Abbondanza is a tricky one though. They are open when they want to be open and only accept cash.

They have both a lounge/bar and a fine dinning restaurant. I love the bar! You can't beat the food, sometimes they have live music and its really comfortable!

Cocktail Hour

Pop in to Pacific Rim Distilling and meet Luke. His story is amazing and you can have some testers of his vodka and gin. Bring a bottle home for later or as a keepsake!
