“Upscale vibe. Nice view of the harbor. Would like to see a few more BC wines by the glass or local ciders. Fish and chips were hearty and delicious. Would go again. Eight minutes drive from Buchart gardens, which had no viable food and drinks options.“

“We had the pleasure of eating at Four Mile Brew Pub on Sep 2nd, 2024. We were visiting Victoria on a Cruise Ship and a local couple picked this establishment for lunch along with another local couple. The food and service were outstanding, and the building is beautiful inside and out. We ate in the pub area and really enjoyed the experience. The manager really came thru, though. When paying a card case dropped to the ground and we didn't notice it. The manager found it, and seeing a California phone number called and got the house sitter who gave the Cruise Ship information, and then let us know. The manager dispatched an employee to return the card case. The house sitter let us know and we were able to talk to the manager and since the employee was on the way, we were able to meet him and retrieve the case. High praise to the staff! Thanks!“

The service is always excellent, extensive beer selection with something for everyone. The hotdog is a good size and really delicious. Atmosphere is excellent and it’s usually not too crowded. Really nice pub experience.“

I had a hard time deciding between my old favorites, but went with the Pierogi pizza. Still delicious! We had a great time, the food was delicious and our server was amazing!!! I truly miss living down the street from this gem❤️“

“Never went here before last night but was really impressed by the food service and atmosphere. We had a party of 10 for a family Christmas dinner and it was amazing. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. First we had Sesame Ginger Gyoza and the Calamari and Chicken wings for appetizers which started our night really well. Followed by an assortment of entries including the Hollywood Burger Steak Frites the Szechuan Beef Noodle Bowl and the #28 Dragon Bowl. Each of these entries were all delicious. Then we had the desserts which were the Key Lime Pie and the Oreo cheesecake which both were very delicious. This place checked all the boxes. Service to Friendly staff to exceptional food. They can serve a small party of 2 to a party of 10 without a sweat. We are making this place our place not only for a place for Christmas gatherings but a fun place to go for dinner and drinks and lunch every day of the week. I am really looking forward to trying more items of their menu in the near future“

“15$ for a beyond greasy burger served on a dry dry bun. Three bites in and I tapped out. Grease was literally running down my wrists. Hubby had the sweet and spicy, dry and stringy…… Will stick to 649 or Thunderbird“
