Swans Brew Pub
"Swans pub has been built in a converted 1913 granary warehouse in downtown Victoria. With 58 craft beer on tap and 3rd oldest brewpub in BC there is a lot going on.There is a great quote that says “A pub is a poor man’s university.” In many pubs, ideas are shared, stolen, improved, bastardized and, more often than not, forgotten.A pub has always been where the community gathers to celebrate the good times and commiserate the bad. A pub really is just an extension of our living room, and as such, we want people to feel welcome like they are at our house, so do us a favour and keep your feet off the furniture…"

Reviews
Overall good experience, though overpriced and using low quality ingredients. We visited for lunch and a beer and split the messy fish burger beaded haddock with tartar sauce and pickled red onion on a bun and a flight of beers. First of, there's nothing but praise for the beers - all excellent! The burger tasted delicious and the right amount of tartar sauce and pickled red onion gave it a nice, tangy, creamy taste and texture. Unfortunately, the fish was clearly frozen fish sticks and I found that very disappointing given the apparent care for the other ingredients. The fish was a bit tough and lacked the ample moisture of a fresh piece of fish. My bad, I should have known that having haddock on the menu would mean it was frozen, but with so much great seafood on the island, why go frozen!?!? This really let down the sandwich. The salad was fresh with crispy greens, and while the taste of the vinaigrette was pleasant, it had an oily mouth feel that left something to be desired. Overall a good visit though overpriced given the quality of ingredients.
I went there for the first time in more than two decades and was happy to see not much change there. House brewed beers were great and food and service were all satisfactory. The bar facing the street is a very nice place to relax whether you are alone or with friends.
I'm usually here only for holiday staff parties over the years. Decent atmosphere, servers are alright. I find the food barely average. Quite disappointed for the braised beef shank. I was hoping for the center bone with the marrow but it wasn't there while the sauce and mustard masks the semi overcooked meat. Not a good value considering the price, portion, taste ratio. My boyfriend's poutine tasted average. I guess other reviewers give higher ratings for the alcoholic drinks. Stayed for the crew, otherwise no particular reason to stick around.
Swans pub is a great spot to chill and hang out with friends! It has an aesthetic vibe with the red bricks and the bicycles on the wall. We walked in around 7 pm on Saturday and it was pretty busy but the host was kind and managed to get us a booth for our party of 5. The booth is very comfortable. Our waitress was very nice, friendly and provided excellent service. I ordered the Nitro Shaft and the hostess asked if we had allergies or intolerances and suggested that I get the vegan Nitro shaft. The nitro shaft was very enjoyable and I truly appreciate that she mentioned that the bartender could do that as it didn’t upset my stomach. In addition, we got the onion rings and 2 Lbs of the vegan nachos to share. The onion rings were very crispy and appetizing. The vegan nachos were tasty and the portion size was huge! Highly recommend Swans Pub if you’re looking to have a great night with some delicious bites and drinks!
I haven't been here in a decade, and although there have been some changes, the feel is the same, if only because of the portrait of PET on the wall, peering into my Québécois soul, like the portrait that comes to life in Ghostbusters 2. Anywho, the beers are great, with a lot of variety. 4 beers served on nitro, you don't see that very often anymore. Great service, didn't try the food this time. Specials were good value. Just a classic brewpub to visit when you're in town.
One of the best classic pubs in Victoria. Excellent happy hour specials and great beers and food.Food: 5/5
Last minute family dinner on Thanksgiving weekend... five people and one had to be gone at a set time. Our server was super friendly, efficient and accurate, and made sure that we stayed on schedule without us feeling pushed. Our food was delicious -- everyone really enjoyed their meals, the Happy Hour drinks specials made it more affordable, and the atmosphere was warm, inviting with a good music playlist. I was very impressed and pleased with our experience.
I love Swan's. Come here at least once everytime in I'm Victoria. A few changes since I was last here but the pub still has the same vibe. Definately in my top 5 of pubs in Victoria.
Came in for an afternoon snack and had such a wonderful experience. My server, Ruby, was attentive and extremely personable. She is what made the experience so stellar. The bacon in the kale salad alone is enough to keep me coming back. Not enough good words to say about this place/staff.
Awesome beer, big and nice pub and yeah, their happy hours do make me happy!
