The Arbutus Room
Refined West Coast Cuisine Rooted in Place
We offer seasonal, contemporary West Coast cuisine that draws on global techniques while remaining deeply connected to the land we occupy. Our menu honours the history and traditions of these coastal territories, celebrates the richness of the local harvest, and reflects a close partnership with the incredible farming community of southern Vancouver Island.
Summer is a time of abundance—a season of sun, flavour, and togetherness. We invite you to join us in celebrating this vibrant place we call home through thoughtfully crafted dishes that let the island’s bounty shine.
The Arbutus Room is an adults-only (16+) dining experience.*
