Perched at the east end of Wickanninish Beach, with arguably the most stunning location on the Coast, the Kwisitis Feast House delights diners with a menu inspired by authentic First Nations cuisine. Enjoy a lunch of traditional fish soup and bannock while taking in the surfers along the breathtaking expanse of Wick Beach. As the day comes to an end, bask in a spectacular sunset while indulging in local Dungeness crab or a BBQ’d locally caught fresh salmon fillet.

Rooted in the history of the Yuułuʔiłʔatḥ First Nation, Kwisitis Feast House aims to enrich the experience of diners by sharing authentic cuisine from the area’s aboriginal culture. The Nation’s territory is located at the northern gateway to Barkley Sound with open access to the Pacific Ocean. The summer season has traditionally been a time for community members to harvest, prepare and stock food for the winter season. During this time many items such as halibut, salmon, herring and berries are prepared traditionally by smoking or drying, or by jarring. Throughout the year other traditional foods are stocked such as crab, sea urchin, deer, duck, clams, oysters and mussels.


Food and Wine

With traditional and non-traditional menu options, the Ucluth First Nation welcomes you to the new Kwisitis Feast House to share a thoughtfully prepared meal amidst the spectacular natural beauty of the setting.
