“came to this bistro for the first time on March 22, 2025 for a surprise 70th birthday for a family member. Found the setting comfortable, the staff knowledgeable, friendly and the service top notch. Ordered the platter for two and it was so good, the calamari was the best!! Our table numbered 15 people and all food arrived hot and all family was eating at the same time. This bistro is amazing!! As we travel to Gabriola Island fairly often, we will be stopping here for dinner again!!”

“We were a group of three for lunch yesterday. I had been going to Greek restaurants in Vancouver for 40 years before I moved back to Ucluelet. The wonderful experience surpassed all of the past ones with the best authentic lamb souvlaki and tzatziki, exceptional service and welcoming atmosphere I have ever experienced. Huge kudos to a truly destination restaurant.”

“I had a wonderful birthday lunch with my cousins here and for me it was the first time, but they go often. The staff was super friendly and the Jalapeno Burger was scrumptious. I was hesitant at first because I don't like hot spicy food, but this was a mild jalapeno jam rather than actual jalapenos and it was very tasty.”

“Cold front is back open! While possibly on the pricey side for just a cone this isn’t regular ice cream! This hand made gourmet gelato with lots of interesting and unique flavours - even for those who are vegan! Definitely worth a stop! You can even get pints or have them delivered! I’d highly recommend! Or have a sit down in the warm store. It’s never too cold for ice cream!”

Brewery

“I have been a regular here since the first time I came in. Staff are all top notch. Beer is the best I've had anywhere, and the atmosphere is awesome. Great patio, great regulars and staff who have become friends. In response to BearHands review... (Great anonymous name!!) Wow, that’s quite a story... And the part where you apparently spent the whole weekend monitoring their hoses? That’s some commitment. If they ever start a fiction night at the brewery, I'd suspect you’re definitely getting top billing. I’ll stick to real beer, real facts, and my own experiences — not whatever grudge‑fueled fan fiction you wrote.”

“We had an amazing treat at Ironworks Cafe & Creperie. So many tempting choices, both sweet and savoury. Three of us wanted to share two crepes, and asked if our choices could be cut into thirds. Renee plated the thirds individually with full garnishes. 🌟🌟🌟 We had the ‘Four Berries and Cream” (sweet) and the ‘Spinach, Artichoke & Brie” (savoury). Hmmmmm. Latte was excellent. 🌟 Locally owned, caringly staffed, local ingredients. So impressed. Thank you.”
