We went a couple of times to the music series that featured cover bands from the Stones to the Beatles. Loved the outdoor venue and dancing under the stars. The BBQ and buffet had a good selection and nice options for beer. A bit out of the way, but worth it for the show!

I love this pub, tucked away on the road though Saltair on the way to Chemainus. The pub has plenty of seating in its garden and a large area inside the pub to eat. Fish and chips were great. they also do liver and onions, pies of all sorts and great desserts. Well worth a visit if you like the... More

A little off the beaten path but well worth the effort to get there. A varied menu and fair pricing. Excellent fresh ingredients and a wonderful setting.

off the main road a small ways, with no views or ambiance. We went when it was after lunch and before dinner so it was very quiet.

You get what you pay for at this pub. The atmosphere is OK, although a bit bright. The burger and chili is a super cheap dinner, so if you need a basic burger then this is the one to get. Nothing spectacular (patties are probably from Costco) but it does the trick. OK beer selection for a small pub like... More

Living in the area has made me try this pub numerous times and i've been disappointed each time. There isn't enough staff though I will say the ones they have do their best. I love the building but the food has been of the freezer and microwave type and poorly done at that. ie...microwaved nachos????

Pleasant pub but quality of food is seroiusly lacking. Use of frozen burger patties and chicken breasts and lack of traditional pub fare says we won't be returning.

Staff is freindly, and food is O.K. An obvious local watering hole. Great old building. Manager is very friendly and will give you the background of the property. Very Nice.

We have been to Saltairs three or four times now, and decided to stop in on our way To our cottage up-island hen dad and I walked in the server gave us a very sour look, and took her time to bring us menus. As we were still waiting for hubby, who was tending to the dog, when she finally... More
