Moonshine Drinkery — Restaurant in Victoria

Very first time drinking here. I was down the road at El Paso Tacos and didn’t want to go home and I’ve heard good things about this place - I was told it’s LGBTQ friendly! So I guess the closest to a gay bar even though it’s not?

Well it’s wonderful inside - looks amazing with a wonderful setup and lighting. Lots of TVs with great songs playing a lot of rock and alternative playing when I went.

I went on a Sunday night. It wasn’t very busy but still enough people there to make it fun! The other drinkers were polite and instantly chatted me up I made friends.

The drinks were great I only got two - the peanut butter drink and the Pinot noir red wine. I didn’t have to open a tab which was nice but for both I think it was about $20 plus tip.

The bartender was very welcoming and polite too. I do recommend it here if you’re downtown and...

This is our main go to place to get a couple of drinks and hangout at now. The bar tenders are friendly, the drinks are great, and the environment has a snazzy/laid back feeling!

For a better understanding of the place, it’s not really for dancing (but I guess you could), and they don’t play club-type music. They play a good variety of popular songs and genres. It’s the perfect place to just casually drink and talk...

A great little bar in downtown Victoria. The environment is fun and the setup is really nice. I wish they had a better selection of craft beer and craft cocktails as that is the vibe of the place but I think they are (sadly) trying to appeal to the masses. Hopefully with time they start to phase out some of that stuff and push better drinks onto the people...
