The Troller Ale House is a storied Horseshoe Bay institution with roots going back to 1977, holding the distinction of being the first pub in Canada to serve micro-brewed beer since Prohibition — pouring Bay Ale from Horseshoe Bay Brewing in 1982. Situated steps from the BC Ferries terminal, it serves as a natural waypoint for touring cyclists heading to Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast, or Bowen Island, offering a wide selection of BC craft draught beers and full pub-kitchen fare. Large windows face the ferry terminal, giving the space a relaxed, unhurried atmosphere suited to a longer break between legs of a journey.
