The Mahi Mahi was incredibly tough and I couldn't chew through some pieces. The beef tartare didn't taste like much like beef. The drinks are ok.

New pub along the tip of Howe Sound…read more Parking is plentiful thanks to the city owned lot nearby. The place is new and modern. There is a nice SE facing patio as well. Not sure why, but the entire venue smelled strongly like vinegar, which was quite irritating. The ventilation inside is quite lacking. Worth mentioning as it may be too much for some. Staff are friendly. Friends and I decided to try the whiskey sours (Sealy Dan) as per Elizabeth Z's recommendation. They are absolutely fantastic. So good that we all had to have a 2nd round. I think it's the amaretto that makes everything go together so well. Will be back to try their food at some point. Recommended.

After driving by this place too many times I finally made the stop, and had a wonderful time just…read moresitting in this relaxing area. Right in Gibsons, you will see the sign off the main road, and when you turn in it feels like a relaxing retreat of being back in nature, and being able to grab some beverage's of the adult variety. I didn't want to go all in on one cider, so I went with a flight with the help of the lady there. While sitting in their area, the space has other vendors, on the day we were there they weren't open, but you can get some food. There are a number of tables, a see through dome for those rainy days, and even a children's play area if you are also bringing in the young. Their ciders are a nice, refreshing taste, not overpowering in taste, and some grow on you after the first initial taste. It is something were a few were originally a little too light.. then after a few more sips you really want to buy some for the journey home to your own fridge. Two other things of note when you are here, and you can't try, but you have to trust it, they make their own small can sodas, from apple, to hibiscus to peach, and they don't sell these anywhere else, I took a gamble.. and now I have to say I can't wait to go back and buy some more, they also have their own apple juice they sell also.... that's also on the 'take my money' list. If you have some time, especially if you have the ferry booked and need to kill some time, this is the spot to relax, and at the same time maybe get some food, but for sure get something to drink!

Cornhole set along with some fun summer events (Sunday yoga and Thursday movie nights). No prices listed on their display board. - Flight ($9.50 for 3) - opted for the pinot/gamay, double muscat and bacchus. All three grape co-ferments were enjoyable and slightly funky. My favourite was the double muscat - Stone fruit ($3.50 for 4oz) - smelled fruity but ending note was strange - Sunday soda ($3.50) - hibiscus tasted like apple juice. Peach was better

Persephone was so much more than we expected! We're so used to the little breweries in Vancouver…read morethat are just fun for some tasting flights but Persephone was a whole experience. You can definitely spend many hours on their large farm and not get bored. There's a fun little self-guided tour that takes you throughout the farm to learn how the beer is made and all the extra little things they have, like a chicken coop! There's a ton of different areas to sit in and an orchard and greenhouse and berry farm, and even a bookstore. There is just so much to take in. They also have a food truck on site and other little snacks available. Even some local ice cream :) And of course, there's a large beer selection, but also a lot of cider options. We really enjoyed the few that we tried in our tasting flight and got a lot of beer to take home. Turns out they also have a flat discount if you buy enough beer, which the staff were kind enough to inform us about. We definitely had a great time!

Had reservations for dinner Wednesday night and arrived early to enjoy happy hour before sitting…read more We were seated right away and informed that we could order happy hour anywhere in the restaurant which was pretty cool. The happy hour menu offered a few drink specials along with starters. The food listed was regular price, while a handful of their cocktails were discounted a few dollars. We decided to forgo happy hour and skip straight to dinner since. We started with the Dirty Jane and Hotel Georgia from the bar. We both really enjoyed the Hotel Georgia. The orange blossom water gave it a delightful flavor that danced across my tongue and left me eager to taste more. The Dirty Jane wasn't quite our flavor palate, but worth a try for its uniqueness. After receiving our drinks Lauren took our dinner order. We started with the frites and beet salad. The beet salad was beautiful and much larger than we anticipated with beautiful slices of beet, pickled shaved carrots, and whipped goat cheese balls. The frites were crisp and golden on the outside and soft on the inside. Shaved Parmesan cheese blanked the frites and a miso dipping sauce added dipable flavor. From there we each ordered the fall prix fixe menu which boasted a starter, a main dish, and a desert for $39.00 which was a total steal! There was also the option to add a wine paring onto the meal for $39.90. They were mainly white whines so I skipped the pairing and opted for a second cocktail. My prize fixe started out with the albacore tuna that arrived seared with a kimchi vegetable display on top. It was unique, flavorful, and fun! For dinner I enjoyed the pad Thai while my husband had the New York steak. He thoroughly enjoyed his meat, vegetables, and potatoes even saying that the outer was the best tasting baby food he's ever had. He nearly licked the plate! The pad Thai was unique- I wouldn't say it was a typical pad Thai dish for me it my husband who has spent a lot of time in Thailand, but it was flavorful and yummy. For desert we each had the vanilla gelato. It as another very unique dish that sent my tastebuds into a frenzy as they worked to piece the flavors together. Vanilla gelato was topped with a chunk of chocolate, sea salt, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. It was a fun ending. Wrapping up our meals my husband ordered the high mountain woody which was probably the best drink of the four we tried. Very unique and fun! I ended my night with the full Nelson which was delicious but a tad bitter. It does have whiskey bitters in it, which I appreciate just didn't overly love. Overall we enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back to try more items from the menu. The restaurant was not very crowded, but might fill more on the weekend. If you are in the neighborhood I highly recommend stopping by to give your tastebuds a treat! Parking is in the lot beside the restaurant or on the street. After dinner you can mosey a street over to peruse the darling main street shops.

We went while traveling and liked that we saw it was a local favorite which is always a good sign! We started with spinach artichoke dip that came with pita and it was creamy perfection.

The staff were very attentive and the restrooms were clean. Visitors looking for a fun place with lots of food options to choose from should definitely check it out. We'll definitely be back!

It had a firepit on the table but the heat didn't quite reach us and it was such a cold night. We still got to listen to the entertainment. It was like having our own private area, The only part that lost a star rating is making people go inside to order and pay for our order, like cafeteria style. There is only one person taking the orders and it took forever. However, a waitress will bring the food to your table display the large number on a stand, like you would receive in a cafeteria or mall. So weird. The food was MEH, however. The beer was very bitter, not to our liking at all. I just enjoyed the ambience of the place and the friendly staff, just not the way of how to order food.
