Just simply looking at the exterior, the place appeared to be a pub. The signage says the same thing! I later find out that it's split into two. A pub side and a restaurant side, separated from each other. You wouldn't have guessed that at all. The restaurant side is a bit more upscale and has nicer decor for a sit down meal. Great view of the beach is a bonus! Friendly service and decent food.

We put our name in and the wait was only 15 mins so not too bad considering how packed the place was our server was out going & that always makes for a nice time the 2 piece fish and chips were really enjoyable I especially liked the very thin crispy batter and also the chutney that came with it really different in a good way my wife had the Seafood Chowder with Bannock to start and loved it also the Avocado bowl with Salmon for her main and she said it was just what she needed lots of good nutritious food and the Salmon was cooked to perfection I also had a couple of their great dark ales, would definitely have those again The meals were a good serving enough that we passed on dessert As for price point a little more than other places but not out of line considering the quality of the ingredients and the serving size I wouldn't hesitate to return for another very enjoyable meal thx to all at Fern and Cedar

Nice little local brewery with way above average food and cool ambiance with board games to boot…read more Came in on our way driving from Victoria to Ucluelet for a decent beer and dinner after a long day of hiking and driving. We were pleasantly surprised by a small, but nice brewpub with board games to boot. They didn't have any tables for four because of reservations, but we were able to sit at the bar and set our kids up with a game of Battleship while we had some beer and food. The beer wasn't world class, but also didn't disappoint. The unicycle sour IPA, was my standout, but the porter and monster mash IPA were also good. The rest were fine, but not amazing. The food was (if anything) better than the beer. The plain cheese pizza my son got was good and had nicely browned cheese all over. The sauce was a bit on the sweet side, but not unpleasantly so. I'd probably lean more into pizza next time even if it's a bit too carb heavy. The spuds (potato wedges) were only OK. I got the Thai chicken salad, which was spicy with great greens and good chicken. Nice and fresh. My wife seemed to be less enamored of her bahn mi burger, but still said it was good. The service was attentive and happy to accommodate us and our kids. Would definitely come again.

Drove 15 minutes from our campground to be stood up at the door with the "we are over capacity". Looking around there were many open tables and/or people sitting on patio without food or drink just loitering. With this "over capacity" information we put our name on a "quick waitlist". After 45 minutes of waiting in a seat that we found between many other open tables. We left. Beer looked good, food looks mediocre. Sounds like they build too much infrastructure for their lacklustre "capacity". If you're hungry or thirsty, you may want to drive down to Nanaimo. Probably quicker.
