Black Goose Inn at Beach Acres Resort

We stumbled upon this place and I would suggest that most people would cruise right by not even knowing that it's there. Let me say that I was pleasantly surprised. We met another couple and we each had our kids in tow. The weather was brilliant so we sat outside on the large picnic tables. The service is English style in that you order your food and drinks inside at the Snug (bar). Our server was extremely kind and helpful. I was really impressed with the food. A couple of us ordered the fish and chips. The portions were generous and the fries were cooked to perfection. We also had a spinach salad with feta and strawberries. It was excellent. Most places over dress the salad. This was dress...

If you are in a hurry or want table service or are picky about your food this is not the place for you. Instead, it's a very casual operation in an historic old 1921 home. You place your order at the bar and unless you are there outside of normal dining hours you should expect a wait of 30 minutes or more (they gave us an estimate of 40 minutes and that's close to what it took). There must be 20 or more picnic style tables on the front lawn overlooking the Georgia Straits and most were occupied with families, many with small children. (Their website states "sleeping babies and well behaved children are welcome.") Inside are a number of rooms where you choose your own table. In addition to a...

The owner of the General Store down the road from our stay recommended Black Goose. Imagine my surprise when I accidentally found it on one of my morning walks around our stay. It was once a mansion with abundant beach acres, hence the name. Now it is a resto in the middle of rentals.The ordering is fast. You order, then pay. We chose to eat in the backyard with an ocean view and many picnic tables. The grandchildren enjoyed running around the grounds and even went to the playground equipment to play.Service on a weekday night is excruciatingly slow. We didn't get our order until 1.5H later. My shepherd's pie was better than my wife's soupy steak and mushroom pie.The prices are good but the...

Went there again because location is close to us.This is not on the water but has a view of the ocean so location is niceWe ordered halibut dinner $22.95. Not a bad price we thought. OMG what a ripYou get ONE piece of halibut, so ordered an extra piece it cost $8.00So a 2 piece halibut and chips was $30.95It was a good meal but not worth that much and portions were not generousSo my advice, go to French Creek (nice view of ocean and marina or to our most favourite place Deez Bar and Grill and have a meal with all the locals at a decent price.And they will come to your table, you do not need to line up at the bar to order and then carry it to your table Reserva una mesa ahora

There is an inside pub eating area, or large picnic tables outside. We went on a Tuesday night, which we thought would be slow but it was very busy. We had to wait over an hour for our food, which they warned us about before ordering. Not much for vegetarians, typical english pub food. I did order the morrocan veg pie and it was quite tasty. Servers were all good. When the food arrived everyone seemed to enjoy their meal.

Ordered Steak & Kidney pie. That is basically all you get. I thought it would come with fries but no it came with a small salad and a piece of bread. Food was good but the price is not for what you get. You have to order at the bar and it took at least 45 minutes for the food to arrive. I live in Parksville so I don't want to put down a local restaurant but i'm sorry my review is what it is.
