Swans Brewpub (506 Pandora Street / 250-361-3310) is located in a beautiful historic hotel in Victoria’s old town. Decorated with a large collection of amazing Native First Nations art, the pub is nonetheless comfortable and laidback. The art isn’t just found on the walls, however, but can also be discovered in their own micro-brewed beer. If you’re having a hard time deciding between their Appleton Brown or Oatmeal Stout, try a sampler – it’s a great deal that will allow you to sip a variety of their beers. Swans also features a full menu and live music during the week.
