Penny Farthing Public House

Victoria, British Columbia

I liked the old-timey style, we tried the well-known flatbread pizza and burger.

Great food, great service, clean friendly environment. Beautiful and well lighted marvelous place to eat. Apparently very popular too.

For my 5th visit in March 2022 I had a turkey pot pie, excellent! This is my 4th time to this pub and I love their foods. The Shepherd Pie was of a big portion. Like other Vancouver pubs in mid-June they ran out of Guinness too, but EUFA was on and I watched Italy won over the Swiss. Service is excellent as I am receiving smiles from the servers. I will be back next time I hop over to Victoria from Vancouver. Nov 16, 2021 visit: Salmon Burger tasted good and healthy.

Super cozy and busy restaurant, however the food was limited in choices due to COVID. There?s patio available too, with outdoor heaters.

The Penny is dangerously close to where I live and I find myself here (fairly) often. They continue to deliver a top notch experience every single time - I?ve never had a negative interaction in 3+ years of visiting. Always fun, always good drinks, the food is great. Sure they have increased their prices like everywhere, but along with that you get an extremely consistent pub experience that you can rely on. Hats off to you Penny crew!

A pub straight out of the Edwardian era as promised. Great Staff, Delicious food and an amazing list of wobbly pops. I would highly recommend this pub to anyone and everyone!

I nearly had a fantastic experience. The food, atmosphere, and staff were absolutely wonderful. I arrived and started walking up the wheelchair alley entrance on the side with my 85 year old grandma. Unfortunately once we got to the door we saw a sign printed on it that said it was closed. We had to go around the front and carefully make our way up the stairs. Other than that inconvenience it was a very nice time. I would definitely recommend the pommes frites parmesan.

Amazing breakfast experience! The eggs Benedict is perfect, and the jam stuffed french toast is light and fluffy without being overly sweet. We sat at the patio and it was very nice! Great customer service as well - highly recommended for out of towners visiting Oak Bay area.
