Glenrosa Farm Restaurant is such a warm and inviting place that you'd be forgiven for not noticing what a fine culinary... experience it also offers. **Update: August 2022**. We were incredibly impressed at how delicious the pizzas and salads in thenew slimmed-down menu are. We tried the vegan pizza with cashew cheese. It was -- no exaggeration -- better than any pizza weate in Italy on a recent trip there. The eggplant and tomato salad with croutons was also just amazing. We sat at the outdoorpicnic tables on this beautiful property and enjoyed the early evening tranquility. While we miss being able to eat in therestaurant, we understand that changes were necessary. The pizza offerings live up to the Glenrosa tradition of extraordinaryfood in a rustic setting. [From 2020:] Brunch has become its regular star offering, but don't forget about its occasional yetspectacular dinner events. We luckily happened to check the website and found that "pizza night" was about to happen. We were soglad to have been one of the five occupied tables on a Saturday night. Delicious homemade crusts, including availablegluten-free ones (also made in house), were the basis of these delightfully conceived pies, which featured local ingredients,house made sausages, amazing cheeses and local mushrooms. Appetizer small plates were a treat: roasted eggplant, potato and leeksoup, ravioli -- all beautifully plated, each a wonder of balance, flavour and nuance. Desserts were not to be missed,especially the date pudding. All of this was presented with such simple grace that we left feeling revived as well as nourished.Owner Jane also has an extraordinary way with children and puzzles. A true delight all around.

Amazing rustic countryside experience dining here. Food was 10/10 well plated, fresh ingredients, and correct portion sizes.... Jane, one of the owners, was just the sweetest and also gave us a history lesson on the farm which overlooks Pedder Bay. Excitedto return. Read more

A beautiful old home with an amazing view, Kind and courteous waitstaff and Top notch food. I highly recommend Glenrosa's take... on a charcuterie board filled with local delicacies for a real taste of the island. Be sure to stay for desert as their take onfrozen yogurt beats out some of the finest deserts I've had in this city, topped with lemon crystals, heavy cream, whitechocolate crumbles and a cake base. Affordable as well, especially considering the quality of food. Read more

Fantastic dinner here. The food (lamb) was perfect, and was awesome while still feeling home cooked. The service is fabulous and... the staff are friendly. A must when biking through on the Galloping Goose! Read more

This is one of Metchosin?s best kept secrets. The Glenrosa Farm Restaurant is a beautiful renovated farm house that was first... built in 1858 (before Canada). It overlooks a beautiful valley and bay nearby. The location is ideal for small weddings, andthey even do barn dances! The food is incredible too. A great place to stop by for afternoon tea if you?re up for an adventure.Definitely looking forward to our next visit! Read more

My wife and I shared our 5th Anniversary dinner here. It was the perfect choice for a nice romantic meal. It was a beautiful... evening and our table overlooked the valley below. The food was delicious and very unique and mostly locally sourced. Theserving staff were very helpful and attentive. No complaints at all. Well worth a visit again for another special occasion.
