Dining at the Inn

A person is seated at a table with an elegant meal on a large grey plate, featuring garnished dishes. The table is set with two glasses of white wine and a small wooden basket containing slices of bread. There is a fork and knife held in both hands, poised for dining.

The dining experience at the Wickaninnish Inn is rooted in celebrating what this coast provides. Chesterman Beach stretches before you, the Pacific delivers its bounty, and the ancient rainforest rises behind.

From the precision of fine dining to the ease of casual fare, each venue offers a different way to connect with the season and the landscape that surrounds you.

The Pointe Restaurant

Experience fine dining where waves crash against the rocky headland below, celebrating West Coast terroir through menus that change with the seasons and what local waters and forests provide. Choose your own three-course Table d'Hôte journey, or experience the five-course Tasting Menu where our culinary team guides each plate.

On the Rocks Bar

The upper level of The Pointe Restaurant welcomes you throughout the day for cocktails, BC wines and beers, and food that ranges from small plates to full meals. Casual in atmosphere and uncompromising in quality, taste burgers, steaks, Dungeness crab, and a scotch selection that ranks among BC's largest.

Howard’s Wine Cellar

A collection built to honour BC producers and international estates alike, our cellar holds over seven hundred labels curated by our sommelier. The space is available for private gatherings of up to twenty guests around a twenty-foot carved yellow cedar table, where wine becomes the heart of celebration.

A cozy room with a stone fireplace, wooden beams, and modern furniture. A piece of recycled marine debris artwork hangs above the fireplace. There's a round wooden table with a chessboard and comfortable seating, including sofas. The room has a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Driftwood Café

Enjoy breakfast before stepping out for a mid-morning beach walk, or lunch by the fireplace when the weather turns. The Driftwood Café, in the Beach Building, overlooks Chesterman Beach with house-made pastries, sandwiches on fresh-baked bread, and BC wines if the moment calls for it. Everything travels well if adventure is calling.
