Great brewpub in Nanaimo. Growler fills to go. Fine pub fare. Often quite crowded.
Comfortable, relaxing atmosphere with great food and good beer. Make sure to bring your friends for a good time.
Best salads in town! The Brewmaster seafood salad is a large meal, full of fresh turkey breast, shrimp and cold smoked salmon. The staff is friendly and efficient. Definitely recommend.
We host meetings here and always find the atmosphere great. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. Definitely would recommend if you’re in the area
Very friendly staff. Food was so-so.
LOUD! There was a singer with an accompanying guitarist upstairs. They were turned up to 11. Conversation was really impossible, so we went downstairs to the pub. Still noisy from the musicians, and so it seemed like everybody in the packed room were screaming at each other. People seemed to be having a good time though, and i would guess it could be very different without the entertainment.
The food is okay, nothing really stands out. I've eaten there a few times. The menu is a yard sale feels like there trying to do to much. Had the tofu bowl at lunch way to salty and too many noddles. The lamb burger was better, enjoyed the feta contribution.
The space is filled with dark wood, making it feel country clubby, not really pub like. Entrance is great with the whole craft beer making show, behind windows. Haven't had a chance to try there beer I am always the driver when there. M
I've been coming to this Pub for a while now and I have never had a bad experience. Whether I am on the top level or pub level, the staff is always friendly and the food is absolutely delicious. Would strongly recommend!
An elegant and excellent brew pub, the Longwood is worth a visit. The food is outstanding. There is a daily "fresh sheet". The pub has serveral types of beer on the go at any given time and a cask ale in the downstairs pub each Friday. Brass and wood are features of this pub. There's a fine view of Mount Benson through the picture windows and from the surrounding deck. You can eat or drink on the deck in sunny weather, but seating is limited. All in all, it's very cozy and pubbish.
Great spot! The staff makes you feel at home. Very outgoing and personable. Sat at the bar then invited friends to join me on the patio. I drank the pilsner and loved it. Actually drank multiple Pilsner's. The food was delicious. Everything was very well priced. I can't get over how well the beer was priced and how good the staff was.
The best staff! The food is always tasty. They make excellent beer. Two thumbs up!!!!
I found the beer to be just ok. Several beer styles to choose from but nothing outstanding. The staff were very friendly and the food was good. The chowder is great.
The inside of the restaurant is really nice.
Tasty beer, delicious food and great service. I've been going to the Longwood for years. The brewmaster salad is immense!
Great food and great service. Our waitress was really friendly. The manager was very present making sure all the diners were well cared for.
Had the kids here (8 and 4) they were well received and accommodated, a special kids menu and cool colouring sheets. I got some super awesome cellar ales to take home in growlers. We will definitely be coming back here again.
