Drinks & Nightlife
17 Mile House Pub
5126 Sooke RdGreat food and atmosphere.
Great beer and patio with Sooke basin view. Dog friendly. Walking distance from Cottage but we'd recommend crossing Sooke Rd and taking the Goose trail. You'll come down Woodlands rd and cross over Sooke rd. Not the best crossing as there's no crosswalk. We find it's a nicer walk than Sooke rd.

Good beer and fun stop after dinner or a big hike. Heated outdoor patio. I don't believe it's dog friendly. Food truck out back.
