The Shinglemill Pub and Bistro

Kind of shady. Order something an the final bill is inflated.
You pay for the view.

Likely the best spot in Powell River for a burger views are unsurpassed, beer is brewed in town and cold, the patio is wonderful, no fault of the restaurant is the wasps: Be prepared to share with them they know a good thing when they see it,
I highly recommend this place.

Nicer place in town. Wine in box. Daily specials. We came in around 2pm and I guess it was shift change because yhere was only one server nand suddenly she was slammed with 6 maybe 7 tables.
I ended up getting a chicken club. I think. We ate here last week. I did get a pickture of the dessert, it was called a Bearstooth.
The vieww was the best part of the visit.

This is a great place to go to cure that Camping Hangover.
The view of the Lake is pretty nice and I especially like it in November (when it’s quiet).
The food is pretty standard (Burger and Fries for me), but the server takes time out of her day to get to know you.
Great Place ! Would go back again.
Last time I checked, No Free WiFi :(

Everytime I’m in Powell River I stop over at this place for my seafood fix. Good food and service. Location makes this a hidden gem for the «Tourist»

Great atmosphere and view of Powell Lake. The food is generally consistent and we usually order the Chicken Taco Salad.
Closing time seems to be fluctuating lately with the kitchen closing down early. Most of the Staff are great but there are a few duds that either under wait or start stacking chairs early making you feel like they want you to get the heck out and it’s only 9:30 on a Friday night.
I’m still giving it a high rating due to the really good waitresses that make up for the odd bad one.

Pub on powell lake. Service is usually very good but food is up and down a bit. Good Pub food with seafood.

Another favorite whenever I visit Powell River.
I have yet to eat in the Bistro, so my review is based entirely off the pub.
The pub has a great view of Powell Lake and the maria. During the summer, the patio is open and you can enjoy the views over dinner and drinks.
The pub has a cozy feeling with warm reds on the walls, a wood burning stove used in the winters, and current top music playing in the background. This place gets packed during big games.
Service can tend to be a little slow during peak times, but the food more than makes up for it.
The bacon wrapped scallops for a starter are excellent! The bacon is properly crisped while the scallops are never overcooked.
I highly recommend the Heart Smart Halibut, a great and healthier alternative to fish and chips, as well as the Pan seared Pork Medallions.
The prices are very reasonable, about $ 20 per person.
Great food with a great view… what more could you ask for?
