A lively public house on Beacon Ave in Sidney offering 20 local, domestic, and imported drafts and ciders — including several Vancouver Island craft beers — alongside a full pub food menu ranging from wings and poutine to roasted salmon cobb salad. The kitchen stays open late on weekends and the pub hosts regular events including pool, darts, open mic nights, and music bingo. It sits on Sidney's main commercial strip, making it a natural refuelling stop for cyclists exploring the Saanich Peninsula.
