What a beautiful place for brunch / afternoon tea! The family that runs this farm house restaurant is super sweet. And the food was stellar! High quality farm fresh ingredients, made with attention and love! Sit outside to enjoy the view. (They even thoughtfully have blankets available if you get cold while sitting outside.). It's not too far from Victoria, and a beautiful spot to enjoy the beauty of the island without the hustle and bustle. Next time I'm in the area, I'll definitely be back! read more

We eat here regularly, and make a point of timing our bike trips up the Goose to stop here for lunch or dinner in the summer when the days are longer. In the winter, we will come here after a trip to Sombrio or a hike at Aylard Farm. Lovely, delicious, fresh food, imaginative menu, and a magical setting for a leisurely-linger-over-wine-and-conversation meal. We love to eat lunch in the summer on the porch. We adore having dinner here in the fall and sipping hot rum toddies while watching the rain storms and sunlight mixing in the fields below. The wood fire place on a winter eve is exquisite. Don't expect fancy restaurant type service. This is a small country place, and it is very very special. read more

This quaint local restaurant was amazing! My daughter has a nasty dairy allergy but they make fish and chips by seating the fish not breading them and add a compote. That day was a lovely celery, garlic compote that was amazing. I had one of the best Onion soups I have had to date. I asked what the base was and surprisingly it was miso. Yum!!! My husband had the Benedict which was over a lovely scone and came with salad. The dressing was homemade and delicious. Who would have thought that there was such an excellent restaurant in the middle of not much that makes everything from scratch?? Here is the view from our table!!! read more

Every year we go there to celebrate Valentine's day and every year it gets better. The 3-course Special meal was "out of this world" and the staff are wonderful. Locally grown food to a beautiful tasteful meal in a quiet setting. Definitely recommend if you wish to get off the beaten track and not stand in line for hours. Check their hours of operations as they host events/weddings as well. read more

Such a lovely treat! My sweetie and I were looking for a place to have a snack on our Metchosin drive from Victoria, and were so excited to learn this lovely restaurant opened up just three weeks before! We showed up just before closing (at 4pm), but were welcomed in for tea. The rebuilt farmhouse provides lots of seating, and a large covered deck with a view of the farm, Pedder Bay, and the ocean. We enjoyed home made iced tea, shortbread with whipped cream and Metchosin strawberries, and a scone with jam and clotted cream (they make an old style of scone that's cooked on the grill, light and fluffy!) It's a nice, casual, country alternative to a stuffy Victoria afternoon tea. We'll definitely be stopping by again! Can't wait to go for lunch :) read more

Ate lunch at this hidden gem yesterday and absolutely loved it. We sat outside on the patio and took in a beautiful view of Pedder Bay Marina, the ocean and mountains. The menu included a ploughman's plate, grilled cheese, Metchosin lamb kebobs, local salad, farro veggie curry bowl among other options. The beer and wine menu included a few favorites such as Phillips Brewery. After some deliberation, I went with the grilled chicken sandwich and side salad. It was delicious! Great bread (from Fry's), greens, dijon, chicken...everything was tasty. One of the better sandwiches I've had in Victoria. The sandwich was filling, but not heavy. You could taste the freshness of everything (from the patio you can see the farm where they get their greens). We skipped dessert but everything sounded delicious (housemade raspberry sorbet!). Lunch ends at 2. Tea service runs from 2-4pm. Along with the outstanding food the location and service are excellent. After lunch we went to Matheson Lake, which is basically across the street. The restaurant isn't far from the Galloping Goose in case you wanna ride your bike out on a sunny afternoon. The beauty of the patio can't be overstated. Our servers were patient, calm, knowledgable and accomodating. We had two one year olds in our party and they joined tables and brought out high chairs for us. The owner is lovely and spent some time getting to know us as well as telling us about the history of the property. This is the ideal location for a lunch if you're in Metchosin or headed to Matheson Lake. I'm really excited that we Metchosinites have such a nice spot. http://glenrosafarm.com/ read more

First time at this cute farmhouse restaurant with a nice patio overlooking the farm and bay in the distance. Menu was not big but good enough for brunch. We had scones, house Benny and farm breakfast. Scones were on point, not too dense. Benny on scone was good, potatoes well seasoned, and bacon was thick and smokey delicious. Service was great! Will be going back for sure. read more

We had a delightful lunch at this local farm. The folks were very friendly & the food was great. Places like this are becoming less & less common. My family & I love finding delicious out of the way eateries like Glenrosa Farm. Thanks. We'll be back whenever we visit Vancouver Island. read more

Great farm house atmosphere with delicious food all made with in-house prepared ingredients (even the sauces). Very scenic overlooking the marina. Child friendly for lunch with room for them to explore in the yard while waiting for food to arrive. read more

Wonderful, tasty, great view, a perfect sunny Sunday brunch. We shall be coming back with friends.

Excellent food in a beautiful setting! Our waitress was super friendly too! If I visit Vancouver island again I'm certainly going back.

What a lovely experience! We wanted a delicious lunch in a unique and relaxing, rural environment and that's exactly what we got! The menu is not huge but my wife and I and two boy's aged 11 and 8 all found something different to eat that we thoroughly enjoyed and would absolutely recommend. The ingredients are fresh and the preparation is absolutely top rate. The setting is a sophisticated farm house lovingly appointed with a fireplace, art and collectibles. We dined on the large wooden back porch and the view is just idyllic! Jane, the owner was incredibly kind and friendly. She suggested the boy's explore the farm while we waited for our food. I got to sit at the table sipping my local craft beer, gazing out at the tree lined valley with the ocean glistening beyond while the boys pet the gentle donkeys and sheep and chased the chickens. Service was attentive and friendly. The deserts were perfect, not too sweet but fresh and homemade. If you are anywhere in the area, make it a point to dine at this charming spot. read more

Awesome locally sourced food at a very reasonable price. It's nice to be able to eat at a restaurant and know that the meat you are consuming was ethically treated. The greens were right from their own farm and super delicious. I will be going here again. read more

We had a really nice afternoon lunch at the Glenrosa Farm Restaurant. It was a rainy afternoon, but we still had a nice view of Pedder Bay in the distance. The dining room has very warm and bright feel. Our meals featured a great selection of organic and in many cases local ingredients, some from the farm next door. This is well worth a pleasant 30k drive from Victoria. read more

Glenrosa delivers on everything you could wish for in a farm restaurant, fresh home grown meat and produce served in an victorian style farm house overlooking the beautiful Metchosin countryside (I went in the dark, but I intend to return for tea and the view). I was in a party of three. We all made each other try our food because it was so delicious. Agreed upon favourites were the smoked sable fish soup, and cabbage roles stuffed with local mushrooms. We loved it. My girl friend is already planning a bike ride that will lead us back for the gingerbread crusted apple pie that got away. read more
