Reviews for The Drake Eatery in Victoria, BC
Chris did an amazing job recommending beers. He educated me on all of them making my experience of drinking them even better! He... loved that I spontaneously ordered a pickle. Funny guy and great place to eat and try craft beers. Read more
Just randomly stopped here and went for the Duck Confit. Duck was extremely juicy and flavorful and the salad with it was... different but a great flavor selection. Will definitely be going back if I'm around there. Read more

I LOVE the atmosphere here.. I'm pretty sure this is going to be my go to spot for any dates or any such outings in the future.... It's perfectly setup for having a great conversation. The music is subtle (but good),the staff are lovely, and the food isexcellent. Plus the menu is mostly sourced from ingredients local to the island. One Cool thing about The Drake Eatery: Ifchess is your thing, then I'd recommend you hit this spot with your favorite set and play buddy. It's not like tournamentshappen here or anything like that. I just saw a pair playing when I was there and it just seemed like they were having a reallygood time. Read more
We've visited The Drake a few times, and it's become a must stop when we head to Victoria. They offer a great selection of local... and imported craft beers, as well as really nice snack plates. The service is excellent and the folks that work there are superfriendly. A great place to pop in for a drink and a bite! Read more
We really enjoyed our lunch at the Drake Eatery. I had the delicious quarter chicken and it was ample for me, and my hubby had... the corned beef sandwich which he said was really good. I really loved the cold slaw salad and dip that came with my chickenand my hubby really enjoyed his home made potato chips, they even came warm!!! The cider was good and so was the wine @ $10 aglass very reasonable, considering it?s DT Victoria. The ambience was nice, good tunes and the we loved the Persian rugs, nicetouch and made it homey. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. We will be back! Thanks for great service, food anddrink!! Read more
I sat in the beer garden area. The beer garden has a smaller food and drink menu than the eatery which is located upstairs. Not... sure why? They had a gluten free beer option on the upstairs menu but no option for the beer garden. Service was only barservice and it was slow. The food itself was really good. Ordered the fish tacos and roast beef sandwich. Lots of seating in anice open space. Read more
This is our "Go To" place for drinks, lunch and a friendly vibe. The staff is very helpful and welcoming. We have never been... disappointed with any of their offerings whether it be drink or food. There is a portable ramp at the front door which needs tobe put in place for wheelchair access but the staff is very helpful. There is a single room, accessible washroom as well. Read more
