Dinner reservations recommended.
Romantic and classy, the Steamship Grill and Bar offers an extensive selection of delicious menu options specializing in premium west coast seafood and locally sourced ingredients. The service is top notch and the building is fully wheelchair accessible - every reason to have a delicious meal in a historic and beautiful space.
The view of the Empress Hotel and Causeway from the covered and heated patio is one of the best of the harbour. The building also boasts the Robert Bateman Art Gallery on the upper floor, well worth a visit in its own right; a wheelchair friendly space that can be accessed by elevator. The Gallery Shop on the ground floor offers Robert Bateman prints and merchandise, hand-picked crafts by local artisans and unique, nature-inspired souvenirs. Don’t miss it!
Note: there is only on-street parking available (90 minutes) on Belleville Street, which fills up quickly. If planning on being longer, there’s underground pay parking available across the street at the Hotel Grand Pacific. Be aware and plan before you go.
A passenger loading zone exists on Belleville Street, directly in front of the building.
There is an elevator up to the gallery on the 2nd floor.
Final Verdict:
An absolute must do for tourists and locals alike, the Steamship Bar and Grill offers up super tasty food for lunch and dinner in a beautiful nautical atmosphere with Victoria’s most stunning harbour view.
