Thetis Island Marina Pub
The pub at Thetis Island Marina traces it’s lineage back to 1940, when what had been an old chicken coup was floated down the bay and dragged up above the high water mark to become the first building. The house and other parts were constructed in the same timeframe, with additions coming through the decades. Through the years it was transformed from Cassidy’s general store and post office, to a restaurant, then finally, with the advent of expo 86 in Vancouver, a pub.
Most of the present structure has been replaced or built during the tenure of Paul Deacon, who has owned the marina now for over 18 years. Following a 30 year career as a fighter pilot in the RCAF and Canadian Forces, Paul took on the marina, arriving in 1993. It now includes the Pub, along with a licensed family restaurant section, a liquor store, the Thetis Island post office, a convenience store, and the marina, which includes docks, fuel dispensing, propane dispensing, and recreation areas.
Recently, the original house was completely renovated and changed to provide three new comfortable rental suites. For more information on the suites, see HERE.
The pub and one designated portion of the deck is restricted to those 19 or older. The rest of the premises, including a large portion of deck, is open to all ages, and all services are available. There are two TV’s for viewing the big game, news or whatever you wish. There are restrooms, including facilities for handicapped, The showers, laundry and additional washrooms are located in a separate building behind the Pub main building, accessed by the concrete path from the head of the dock.
