Came here twice on our trip and can’t wait to come back. The service was friendly, vibe is great, and the food was consistently super tasty. First night, we got the burger and the chicken schnitzel sandwich. My partner said it’s one of the best burgers they’ve ever had, and I think it was the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had.
Night 2, we came back and shared the duck prosciutto, sage gnocchi, and seared tuna. We really liked the tuna, but the duck and gnocchi definitely stole the show. Not only were they crazy tasty, but the value for money with them was phenomenal!!

A family style dining experience that surprised and delighted us.
Friendly casual service that was perfectly professional without being stiff. The atmosphere is bright, intimately lit with colourful flowers as table pieces and lovely pottery tableware. Our group really enjoyed the community seating at long tables where we could share our thoughts about each plate with not only our immediate group but the groups either side that were curious.
We ordered 8 dishes from the menu to share between four of us and it was the perfect amount of food for us. We had the maq salad, 2 flavours of chicken wings, octopus, pork belly lettuce wraps, sausage, broccolini, and potatoes.
The highlight of my meal was the sausage, with a fennel and olive mix on the side that was quite complimentary. Everything was cooked perfectly and had surprising sauces that intrigued us and had us buzzing. The buttermilk chicken wings were exceptional, crunchy on the outside and so juicy on the inside. Interesting flavours and a lovely dining experience, plus they were not so busy that they couldn’t fit us in on a whim.
Definitely a highlight of our trip to Tofino, part of its redemption in my eyes. I highly suggest if you visit to order a few things to share, enjoy a glass of wine or a radler, and take your time picking through the flavours and textures in good company.
P.S. I think this restaurant would do very well with a set $60-70pp tasting menu.

The food was much better than you’d expect at a beer house restaurant. It was so good that we came back 2x on this trip! The first time, we shared the 1/2 size shrimp linguine and it was very good. We also shared the crispy goat cheese salad which was really refreshing and fresh too. The second time , I had their burger and it was a 10/10. It wasn’t just a stock pub burger- it was so much better and juicier! The hand cut fries tasted fresh too!

A great dog friendly spot for a meal! The service was great (very friendly), the menu was well-curated and straight forward. We ordered drinks and the oysters and mussels – everything was excellent! The oysters were fresh, mild, and well-shucked with great seasonings. The mussels came in broth and were delicious, but we did note a bitter taste from the broth (tasted like some cooked-too-fast onion r shallot)- not terrible and probably just a slight cooking error.
The best part was being able to bring our dogs on the patio with us! Thank you so much for the great service and food!

Bear Bierhaus is a really pet-friendly spot, which we love. Staff are welcoming to dogs and make you feel at home. Service can be a bit forgetful at times, but given how busy it gets, it’s understandable.
Food-wise, the oysters were fresh and delicious, and the mussels were absolutely amazing, definitely a highlight. We also tried the lasagna, which took a while to come out. Honestly, we preferred the linguine. It had great flavor and didn’t come with the long wait.
A solid spot for a casual night out, especially if you’re bringing your pup along. Just be ready for a bit of a wait during peak times.

Came here at the tail end of Happy Hour, was pleasantly surprised to see all the food on the HH menu is exclusive to that timeframe, very fresh seafood best Tuna Tataki ever. Smoked Fish Dip was a bit heavy on the dill for my personal preference but great and liked that it looks like they fry the chips in-house. Oysters were super fresh and their fermented hot sauce is delicious. Entrees for dinner was not as big of a hit, mussels were shrivelled up and ate dry without a super saucy or broth situation. Octopus was good. Lamb Pasta pricing was high for box pasta and tasted fine. Loved our cocktails and drinks. Service was super friendly and attentive. Sadly couldn’t bring our dog cause their patio was closed for a private event.

I like the outside area of this restaurant. Very chill. Because it was cold, I got a blanket from the staff. Very good customer service! We ordered clam pasta, pork belly, grilled octopus and chicken sandwich. All very delicious!!!

A wonderful place to dine in Tofino! The food was amazing and drinks were delicious. Our server Amelia had fantastic recommendations and was super knowledgeable, friendly and her service on point! Some cushions on the chairs inside would bring a little more comfort to inside dining, but otherwise, a beautiful experience and well worth the money. I had the Halibut and licked the plate clean. The oysters and muscles were also so fresh and delicious! Thanks again!
