Rock Cod Cafe @ Cowichan Bay Annual Wooden Boat Festival
Jul 6 all-day

What do you get when a commercial fisherman owns a seafood restaurant? “Food that is fresh, makes you feel good and reminds you of home! The perfect place to warm your soul!”

Take advantage of Cowichan Bay’s 34th Annual Wooden Boat Festival – July 6th & 7th – to try Rock Cod Cafe – 1759 Cowichan Bay Rd (250) 746-1550

  • Free, family friendly festival attracts over 1,500 people to Cowichan Bay Village. Children’s boat building and fishing derby, a children’s RC boat pond, a People’s Choice Awards Salmon BBQ dinner on Saturday evening, a pancake breakfast on Sunday morning, marine demonstrations, a ‘Best of the Bay’ chowder contest, brown bag dinghy races, live entertainment and more. Check out the Silent Auction table! We are very happy to donate a Rock Cod gift card. Proceeds from the Silent Auction will go towards the programs and activities offered by the Cowichan Bay Maritime Centre

It’s not just the food that gives Rock Cod Cafe its great reputation. Owner Jacob Hökanson commits, “If the ocean is going to look after me, it’s my obligation to look after the ocean.” Rock Cod Cafe is a proud participant in both the Ocean Wise Vancouver Aquarium Conservation Program and the Marine Stewardship Council. Look for menu notations that indicate that the catch is local, from the Island area and sustainable.

Rock Cod Cafe also commits to taking care of gluten-free and celiac diners. “Our waitstaff are pleased to walk you through Rock Cod’s comprehensive celiac-friendly offerings to customize your order according to your sensitivities. When we prepare celiac-friendly meals, we use clean, separate pans, separate flippers, a separate cutting board and employ good hand-washing techniques to minimize the risk of cross contamination.  Your health and enjoyment are important to us so we caution our diners that our deep fryer is used to cook wheat item. Please choose accordingly.”

Rock Cod is determined to make all their offerings the best that they can be from fish, veggies, chicken and beef! Give them a try – you’ll be hooked for life! Now serving Wow Factor Gluten-Free Desserts!
