Jo's Place

Jo's Place is a definite recommended restaurant to go too on Pender Isl. The restaurant is vibrant, the staff is friendly & the service is quick. The Food was absolutely 💯 👌 delicious. I really enjoyed the crispy hashbrowns & Beef patty Eggs Benny Burger. I would definitely come here again. Also it's a great spot to watch live sports.

Great food and service and a relaxing atmosphere. We ate two lunches and a breakfast at Jo’s over the August long weekend, and would be going back for more if we had more time. All meals were fantastic - beef, lamb and spicy chicken burgers, poutine, breakfast sandwich and egg benny with hash-browns. All meals had generous servings (I opted for half-serving breakfast and avocado during the last meal). The wait times were very reasonable, and each staff member was welcoming and personable. We were sad to hear that Jo’s will be closing in the fall but very grateful that we had a chance to visit. Highly recommend Jo’s Place to anyone coming to Pender Island until September 1.

A wonderful surprise to find this gem on Pender Island. We stopped by for lunch on our way home after being recommended by a friend, and it exceeded our expectations! Super friendly and quick service. So great that you can choose breakfast or lunch all day. A fantastic menu with lots of variety that made it hard to choose, but all of us loved our selections. The Duck salad and the Yorkshire pudding sliders were incredible with great texture and flavor combos. Definitely worth visiting, next time we will be sure to have breakfast!

I would say it is the best restaurant (not even one of) on the island - though there is not so many choices anyway, but still, they can make excellent food. I would recommend wings with honey ＆ siracha sauce. The glaze is amazing, though a bit spicy, but it will tempting you bite again and again. Tomato soup is also wonderful, it's a kind of fusion food which mixed a bit Thailand Tom Yum flavor, good for summer. Burgers are wonderful with soft but crispy buns. They have special price for different foods everyday, and all wine sales in an acceptable price (6.99 per glass / 25 per bottle). The service is very good also, Jo himself is nice and kind. Unforgettable memories here.

Our server last night recommended this place for breakfast and the breakfast here definitely did not disappoint. My husband ordered the southern breakfast special and I ordered the grilled pear and gargonzola cheese omelette. It was deeeelicious! Fay was our server and she was super attentive. So happy to have found this little gem of a breakfast joint! They even gave us little TicTac mint packets at the end - what a cute bonus!

Okay, so recently visited Jo's Place during the heatwave last week on two occasions: Friday and Sunday. Both times food was out on time (as was what they mentioned after we placed our take out order), and great value for the quality and variety. The hot weather didn't dampen the staff's customer service, it was very pleasant. I would visit again, the Pender Bowl was delicious, and so was the Halibut Burger I previously ordered. Even after our 10-15 minute drive to our rental, the food was good, no complaints.

Ordered a caesar, classic burger with a side if the daily soup (lamb, chickpea?), and the special pulled pork sandwich with fries. Everything was fantastic - really delicious. Service was also fantastic. Highly recommended if you're on the island. Next time I'm on the island I'll be back (and hopefully get to checkout their dinner / pizza).

Wow this place is cute! Ice cold Peroni on tap, best pizza I’ve had in a long time, very fast service, very friendly, prices are good. Came here with the hubs and our baby. HIGHLY recommended. Good family place. I will be back 100%. FYI - closed Monday and Tuesdays
