Spinnakers Gastro Brewpub & Guesthouses - Historic Gastro Brewpub with Garden Views and Local Cuisine
Canada's first purpose-built gastro brewpub anchors this distinctive Victoria hotel, located 3 miles from Victoria Inner Harbour. The heritage property features rooms and suites equipped with gas fireplaces, flat-screen TVs, and free WiFi, while select accommodations include two-person spa baths and fully equipped kitchens. A covered and heated waterfront patio adjoins the pub-style restaurant and taproom, which overlooks Victoria's Inner Harbour. Spinnakers showcases traditionally crafted brews and regional cuisine prepared with ingredients from local farms, including partnerships with Haliburton Farm for organic produce. The property's gardens display heritage fruit trees, herbs, and flower beds.

“Spinnakers distinguishes itself as Canada's first gastro brewpub, an establishment deeply rooted in its region. The guesthouses, complete with lush gardens, offer a private, almost residential feel. I found the commitment to local sourcing and sustainability commendable, making it a worthwhile base for exploring Victoria.”
