This is more of a grab some fish and chips sit outside and enjoy the view, as opposed to a restaurant. Best fish and chips in town and you can grab food here after a visit to the mining museum.

Drinks & Nightlife

A brewery that has some tasty beer and a cool patio with a great view of Mt Garabaldi, they don't serve food but at times have a food truck outside so either pre-eat or grab one a Tall Tree Bakery's pretzel (if the food truck isn't there)

This Gin Distillery is open some evenings for fancy cocktails. The first time I went I felt as though I was on Main St in Vancouver and as the Gin is distilled in Squamish you should definitely have a cocktail or two.

Parks & Nature

Nice place to hang out and go for a swim, rent a paddle board, canoe or kayak. Also a great place to mountain bike and run in the trails. At the height of summer it's usually the best lake to find parking but I would plan to arrive before lunch to get a spot on weekends as it gets busy.
