The Spirit of the Island represents our philosophy of serving fresh local West Coast cuisine and in house hand crafted ales and lagers nestled within beautiful landscaping and natural west coast wilderness. The Longwood Brew Pub is central Vancouver Island's only Brew Pub and Nanaimo's favorite rendezvous destination. Our traditional ales are hand drawn using classic original English beer engines and are served at a cellar temperature of 10 Centigrade (50 F.) while out cold ales and lagers are served out of our custom ceramic beer towers at 5 Centigrade (40 F.) These serving methods and temperatures allow our patrons to enjoy our beers in the manner and temperature that they were meant to be.more...See more text
I agree food is no longer the quality it used to be too bad!The bar is beautiful the beer is excellent micro brew Indian Ale the best I have had.been frequently to bar but won't waste dollar on the food
Nice restaurent upstairs/great pub downstairs. Continually ranked high/highest amongst Nanaimo restaurents in polls every year. Great brunch on Sundays. Very comfortable, courteous efficient staff all seem to have been there forever. Excellent casual style foods from burgers to salds and especially great soup and sandwich every day. Several beers are all made in house and excel.
We're been patrons here for several years. The beer is excellent and varied and one of the few real brew pubs north of Victoria. However, the food has become very generic pub food over the last few years. Unremarkable burgers and nachos seem to be the regular fare. They used to have gourmet salads, yummy sandwiches and more creative items listed on their menu.
