Barley Station Brew Pub

Designed to resemble a heritage train station, and surrounded by an abundant and colourful flower garden, this brewpub is situated right next to the busy Trans-Canada Highway, making it a welcome sight for sore eyes (and rumbling stomachs) on the long drive to or from the BC coast. Anyone who stops in for a bite and a beer will be more than pleasantly surprised by what they find. The kitchen is top-notch and the beer is excellent — so good, in fact, that this small local brewery has won some significant awards, including a gold medal at the Canadian Brewing Awards. And if you’re lucky enough to be staying in the beautiful Shuswap Lake region, you can drop by more than once and perhaps fill a growler to take some beer with you.
