We always stop at Spinnakers whenever we travel to Victoria, good, fresh local menu, kid friendly, great beer flights. I recommend a walk on the sea wall after your meal.

This was our second visit to Spinnakers and it did not disappoint. My husband tried the beer sampler and was pleased with value and the selection. I chose a wine I did not like and when we called the server back for me to choose another, he offered to take the first glass off the bill! We had a lovely... More

We enjoyed this restaurant so much we ate here twice! The food was wonderful and the beers were tasty!! We shared flights so we were able to sample just about all their beers. The service was good, not great, but the atmosphere and location made up for it. This is a good choice for a casual meal.

The pub seemed much further from downtown than touted. Given its reputation, I expected more craft beers on draft --- certainly, there's a fair selection, and we went through a couple of pitchers, but I expected a larger selection. Good chowder, and the fish and chips with fresh halibut was well done, For $19, I expected more than one piece... More

Another of Victoria's great brew pubs! Amazing beer paired with amazing food. Go for the food and beer, stay for the view of the harbour! Great little gift shop with chocolates, beer, souvenirs for sale. Walk there from downtown along the water, a nice little trip!

We really enjoyed the fish and chips at Spinnakers. We would definitely go there again. Our kids chose hamburgers, and those were good, too. We sat on the deck and enjoyed the view of the harbor.

A local at the dock suggested this pub and it was a winner. Great view, yummy selection of food and an easy walk from main hotels.

Went back to Spinnakers with two other gals after not being there for a long time. The restaurant was not too busy (lunch Friday) but was very noisy. There was a large table of military personnel who were having a VERY good time. It was actually hard to hear our conversation. The good thing...they serve the best Tuna Loin Salad... More
