Renfrew pub

Welcome Home

IMPORTANT NOTE: The Renfrew Pub is ready and waiting to serve you! Guests joining us for indoor dining and patio dining must show ‘proof of vaccination’ + valid ID based on requirements put in place across all of BC by the Provincial Health Officer. Guests that are not vaccinated are warmly welcomed to join us at our take out window.

The Renfrew Pub is the homey gathering place for locals and visitors at the heart of Snuggery Cove. Friendly and inviting, it’s the sort of place even first-timers swear they’ve been before. The waterfront pub and restaurant occupies an enviable spot, right next to the dock. The great room — with cathedral ceiling, gleaming 10-tap draught system, pool table and flat screen TVs — offers up micro-brews, tasty fare, and nautical charm.

The dining room’s French doors are left open to warm afternoons. The scent of toasted cedar drifts on the breeze. Sprawling wrap-around patios let you follow the sun and offer panoramic views of the bay and bluffs. There isn’t a bad seat in this house. This is the spot to shed your shoes, grab a pint or glass of white, and enjoy a natter with friends. Don’t be surprised to see an eagle cruising overhead or a curious harbour seal popping up in the inlet to say hello.

On chilly evenings when the fog rolls in, the illuminated Renfrew Pub sign beckons with the promise of conviviality in the cove. On special nights, live music spills into the night. With cedar shingles and warm-lit windows, this public house is like a woodsy cabin shared with friends.

The Renfrew Pub now allows you to charge your meals to your room!  Please note that a gratuity of 18% applies to all restaurant charges unless you choose to leave a cash tip. See your server for more information.
