What We Recommend
Legend Distilling Inc.
We LOVE it here. We have visited this distillery every time we go to Penticton and have an abundance of their products at home. Their yard has a BEAUTIFUL view, paired along with their drinks, you really can't go wrong.
Sun n' Sup Paddleboard Shop
Here is a spot in Naramata where you can rent paddleboards and head down to the lake for a nice activity! The lake is within close walking distance to this shop and was a nice quiet spot. We recommend making a reservation for a rental as summer will be busy. Rental information: 2 hours for $39.00 3 hours for $49.00 4 hours for $55.00
The Bench Market
Very cute little cafe with a large outdoor patio. Perfect for brunch, lunch or just a quick cuppa tea or coffee.
The Kitchen at Da Silva winery by Abul Adame
Cannot recommend this tapas spot enough. Beautiful outdoor dining and delicious food. Wine made at their on-site winery. If you choose to go here we do recommend a reservation as it is a small space.
Loki's Garage
Brunch place around the back of the garage right in Penticton. Definitely recommend here as everyone was very nice and food was filling.
Tickleberry's
Who doesn't love ice cream to cool down on a hot day? This spot has loads of ice cream flavours and options to choose from!
Cherry on Top Shake Shop
Right on the beach is this Giant Peach serving up ice creams and milkshakes. This spot is very fun and whimsical in their flavours and toppings.
Abandoned Rail Brewing Co.
This new brewery in Naramata is beautiful. German style beer, yard games, natural decor and just lovely people working here.
Ruby Blues Winery
We visited this winery on our last visit to Naramata. I recommend everything about this winery. Tasting fees of $10 per person, waived with the purchase of wine or merchandise.
Elephant Island Winery
This winery offers two different styles of tasting, one grape wine and one fruit wine. You get to sit in their courtyard under a large tree and have wine brought to your table. Their Current Release Tasting runs $10 per person. These are seated, guided tastings hosted by one of their wine educators.
La Petite Arbielle
This Cidery is beautiful with a large garden area and lots of sparkling ciders to try. Tastings are $10 per person, waived with the purchase of a 750ml bottle.
Bench 1775 Winery
We came here for lunch on our most recent trip to Penticton. They were renovating their patio at the time to create what looked like a large outdoor space with a BEAUTIFUL view of the lake. The food was Asian themed with lovely wine pairings. They also offer wine tastings in their lounge. This spot looks like it gets busy as it's a larger and more well known winery in the region.
Neighbourhood Brewing
New local brewery in downtown Penticton. This spot was lively during our visit and we are sure it will be busy over the summer. Good thing there is a large patio as well as lots of indoor seating available. They offer their own beer, seltzers and non-alcoholic options.
