Eating and drinking are social activities best enjoyed in a warm, relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. These activities have had a long association with wood, which has traditionally been used for making tables, chairs and other furniture as well as for wine casks and beer barrels. Wood floors and exposed beams have been features of hostelries and restaurants across the world for centuries, and continue to lend a unique quality to contemporary dining establishments. The two examples included here are both located in the Okanagan Valley in the southern interior of British Columbia. Although they are very different in architectural character, they both use wood with great effectiveness to create the appropriate dining ambience.
