Restaurants

Unlike a few decades ago, modern Pender Island is fortunate to have a good choice of coffee shops and restaurants available. Most are open year round although some may have limited hours during the slower winter season. If you enjoy your meal, please let the owners and staff know that The Pender Island Guide supports their services. We’ve come a long way.
