Bowen Island Pub, Bowen Island, British Columbia, Canada www.bowenpub.com
First you have to catch the BC Ferry at Horseshoe Bay, they run about every 1 hour and 10 minutes to Bowen Island. You can either drive on or go as a walk on. Walk on is the cheaper was to go. The pub is about 3000 meters from where the ferry dock at Snug Cove. It is about a 20 minute ride. Bowen Island is a beautiful place, and the pub is fantastic. As you enter the front portion has a high vaulted roof. They have nice laminated beams and posts. The sit-up bar is to the right and seats 10 people. To the left in its own area is where the kids are. The adult side has 10 pub high tables for 2, 4 and 6. They have 13 different beer on tap, wine and hard liquor. For lunch I had a bowl of the Salmon Chowder, and it was fantastic. I loved it! My wife had the King Cobb Salad and she said it was awesome and one of the best she has ever had. My niece had a bowl of the French Onion Soup, and she said it was very good. We shared an order of Onion Rings too. Saturdays and Sundays they have Benny Brunch that runs to 2:30 pm. There are 6 egg bennys to choose from or create your own. They have Freedom Fridays ultra happy hour. Runs 5-8 pm with live music, weekly dinner specials and rotating ultra drink specials from 4-6 pm The food here was excellent! They have 4 TV's, Keno and Pull Tabs. There ae 2 dart boards. There is a great vibe here, the staff are amazing!! Can't say enough about this gem!! Well worth the trip over!!
