Beautiful location but that was about it. The pizza was cold and wet in center and tasted like a microwaved frozen pizza.
Ordered three of the same beers and one had a foul smell to it.
Would be decent place to sit outside and have a bottled beer but nothing else.

Beautiful view of the Harbour and marina from this friendly and welcoming pub. Staff were attentive, food was served promptly and hot. Our party ordered 5 different meals, all tasty! Will make it a regular stop in Pender Harbour.

The food was very good!! We had tasty wine and my meal was gluten free and cooked perfectly. Amazing view from the deck. Definitely will go again.

Terrible breakfast. Nice boy serving but truly the worst breakfast I and my guests have ever had at a restaurant. 1 egg, 4 pieces of under cooked toast, 2 pieces of super thin bacon and little cubed frozen hash browns. Set menu , no changes. $58/ 4 Really ? I have been coming to Pender Harbour for 42 years / what the heck happened ?

For a long weekend with one server I thought the service was terrible . I finally had to go up to the bar to order a drink. I have frequented the the Garden Bay Hotel with my husband for the last 16 years and the service has always been slow but never like this. As a employee at one time it was quite some time my husband and I were there but I will not be back. The wash rooms were discusting both toilets dud not flush and the sink just didnt have just water around the sink it was filthy dirty around the taps. And the soap dispencer was very dirty. We as locals living in the area were discussed

I stopped by to see how the Pub was doing with the new owners.
We ordered the chicken burger and upgraded yam fries, the chicken burger arrived cold, the bun was still frozen and when I tell the waitress, she informs me that "the cook does not speak english"!!! She offered not reduction in the bill or a replacement meal. The prices are way too high for the quality of meals served here. I will not be going back again.

Came with a friend who told me the place used to be very good... But it appears this is no longer the case. Ordered fish and chips which was way too greasy, fries were OK. My friend's salad was disgusting. Service was very long, but when we were done the waitress was really pushy (proposing me another beer when mine was half done). Terrace is nice with a beautiful view on the marina.

The sweet and sour shrimp or chicken ball in that red colored sauce is delicious. The Won Ton soup is particularly our favourite dishes. Thank you so much new owner and the rest of the staff. The food and service was top notch. We highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back!

Classic West Coast marine pub. The service was friendly and the beer cold. My wife and I shared a salad and the thick crust Italian Style pizza for dinner. Food was good and the view from the deck unbeatable. Recommended.

This is the last year I'll come here. Service by demographic for sure! I was not even acknowledged by the waiter ...Ken I believe.. I had to go up to him to actually place my order when I was only one of three people sitting inside. He had plenty of time to stand around with his hands folded looking important. Listening to the band and mugging it for the ladies. So much so that by the time he got my order.. Just a plate of fries since I came here mainly for beer...The fries were cold. With the time it took to get them I did not want to try again. I actually went up to a different waiter to check
