    two cones of ice cream
    Frances L.

    Loved stopping by Mike's Place for a sweet treat! The hardest decision was deciding what flavor to enjoy. The ice cream was smooth, creamy and delicious.

    Summer is for cold treats and gelato is perfect for a hot, summer's day. This small shop has probably over 40 flavours of gelato. What's really neat is that they display the gelato differently based on the flavour. There were actual Ferrero Rochers on the Ferrero Rocher flavour and some Kinder Surprise toys on the Kinder Surprise flavour. So cute! I got to try a bunch of flavours, but the wasabi flavour was most interesting. It tasted like wasabi and had a small kick. I had an excellent earl grey gelato in a waffle cone. It was nice that you don't get extra charge for a waffle cone. Remember to stop by when you get off the ferry!

    This is one of the few places that have lots of options and serves good ice cream. I am amazed at the variety. Have to say this place is worth going to. They have good ice cream. The staff are friendly. You get to sample before buying. I personally like their cafe latte. Yummy. Also this place has ice cream sandwiches and ice cream cakes. Not to mention there are lots of seating available. I am giving this place a thumbs up.

    Holy moly if your in Gibsons you gotta go to Mikes. Best gelato in town and it's always busy in the summer. Soft and creamy... OMG I want some right now just writing about it. Flavours I've had and enjoyed too much: After Eight Snickers Rolo Grasshopper pie Cheesecake The plan cheesecake was my absolute favourite!

    What's better than following a greasy Fish & Chips lunch with a scoop of Gelato from Mike's Place??? A double scoop($4!) of Gelato from Mike's Place!!!!! Spread over 2 coolers, there were about 40 flavours to choose from. I ordered Coconut and Cookies & Cream and my partner ordered Pumpkin Pie and Cheesecake. Each was exceptionally flavourful and creamy! My Coconut Gelato had Coconut shavings throughout and the Pumpkin Pie Gelato made me want Summer to end right then and skip to Thanksgiving! The small, front patio is great for taking a break or people watching as you eat. Mike's Place also has a coffee bar for your caffeine fix, light meals, and plenty of snacks for your stroll around Lower Gibsons. I think I even saw some old school VHS rentals in the corner. Small towns, gotta love em'!

    Best Gelato in BC. It's homemade and the owners are lovely people. Definitely a must visit if you go to the sunshine coast!

    Great gelato, selection and patio to sit out on. Unfortunately the service was poor. A simple hello or thank you would have been nice.

    I love Greek food and have wanted to try this restaurant for years. It's got a nice dining area…read moreinside and outdoor patio. We ordered takeout. Service was prompt, everything was ready on time. The calamari was good, everything else was only ok. The dolmathes had an odd-looking sauce on them and didn't taste like others I've tried. Chicken souvlaki was ok but the roasted potatoes were barely browned. The Greek salad needed more dressing or more zingy dressing, and it would have been better if the feta had been left in bigger pieces: it was finely cut up and added an almost grainy texture. The baklava was disappointingly soggy and it seemed like a simple syrup was used rather than honey. Know before you go: a gratuity is added on takeout. I don't like giving a bad review but with just a few small changes this restaurant could be so much better.

    If I could give 6 stars, I would. Leo's Tapas & Grill blew me away…read more My daughter and I went for my birthday dinner - our first time at Leo's, even though we've lived in Gibsons almost a year. What a mistake waiting so long! We had the seafood platter (divine), several tapas (delicious), drinks (fantastic), and dessert (perfect ending). The portions were generous, the food was fresh and bursting with flavour, and everything was beautifully presented. What truly made this night unforgettable was the service. It was honestly some of the best I've ever experienced - from our server, to the hostess and even the manager ... everyone was genuinely kind, professional, and attentive. The atmosphere was cozy and clean, with a relaxed, family-run charm that made us feel totally at home. I'm officially obsessed. Do yourself a favour and eat here!

    Yeet! Yes i know-- why eat bbq when you are in the land of…read morefresh fish and oysters and other yummy crustaceans. Welp- i visited in a month without an "r" and hence oysters are not the most ideal...apparently. And my kids are the meat and potatoes type crew. Coming from Texas i was alittle skeptical, but that quickly faded with the hometown hospitality of the smoke on the water staff. The big friendly guy took our order- amused my kiddos- and we were ordering lots of bbq on a pier. Ordered- BBQ beef sandwich- delicious sauce with a little bite Meat was requested for the leaner cuts and was fulfilled. No blobs of fat, and just lean tender meat. Poutine with pulled pork/bbq beef /bacon - fries were crispy, hot , and potatoe filled - meat was on point - cheese curds were curding/ melting and stringy Both id say were 5/5! So moral of this review is that you dont need to question why you are ordering bbq on a pier, near so much water, on an island only accessible by a ferry. This place reps well, and has mucho bbq aura. The seating is alittle limited, just patio high stools and counter tops. You view the marina and could see some whales or seals pop up

    Tried Smoke on the Water BBQ while visiting Gibsons and had a mostly positive experience with a few…read moremixed moments. We ordered the brisket platters, and while the portion sizes were generous, the brisket was on the fattier side and could've used a bit more seasoning overall. The mac and cheese had great flavor and that classic comfort-food vibe, though it was a little dense. The corn flan was just okay...nice idea, but it didn't totally come together for me. We also got the chicken wings, and I have to say, we were impressed! They were actual full wing pieces, not tiny or over-fried, which was a nice surprise. There's limited seating, so it's definitely more of a grab-and-go or casual quick-bite spot. All in all, solid BBQ with potential, but I'd love to see a bit more seasoning and balance in the dishes.
