50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Brentwood Bay

“My husband and I absolutely enjoyed this beautiful garden. The views from our tea experience were lovely. We got to see part of the rose garden as well as the Italian garden and the water. The location is absolutely beautiful. We thought the tea was a very good value. The sandwiches were delicious. The desserts were phenomenal. The service was also pretty good. We had tea at the Empress Hotel later on that evening and this tea experience was a pretty comparable experience. “

“One of my favourite places to sit and watch the world go by. Great food, lovely staff, honestly if you haven’t been yet, Go!“

“We got the Buffalo chicken burger, poutine, scone, and cinnamon bun. Poutine was basically just fries and gravy, but the rest of it was good! Would go back for the scones alone if I was nearby. Parking is difficult if you don’t get a spot in the dedicated lot. Updated from previous review on 2026-08-27“

“All vegan buffet, great variety and many healthy options as well as more indulgent savoury and sweet options.“

“What a gem! The service was fantastic! The place is gorgeous! The food outstanding! The wine list is very good and not unreasonably priced. From the tuna to the scalopinne to the three different pastas that were ordered everything was delicious and the portions were generous. Make a reservation. This place was very busy on a Sunday night in September.“

“I shall have to come back and try it again, it was very good. I had the Takoyaki Appetizer, deep fried octopus balls and for the main course Black Arashi Tan Tan - Black sesame base with pork belly, egg, spinach, bamboo shoots, crushed peanuts, chili oil, garlic, green onion and nori seaweed.“

“The atmosphere, food and service were ASTOUNDING! We have not experienced such incredible food and service in a long time and Block nailed it!“

“I love how tiny and welcoming it feels 😎 always busy and the flavors are delicious 😋 Highly recommend ✨️“

“We had dinner at Alpina Restaurant at Villa Eyrie Resort and were completely captivated by the breathtaking panoramic views of Saanich Inlet, framed by rolling mountains, lush greenery, and endless blue skies. Between the spectacular scenery and the outstanding cuisine, it was hard to decide which was more memorable!

We began with the rye sourdough bread, served with whipped butter and an apricot-cardamom butter. It was a simple yet elegant combination that we had never experienced before and absolutely loved.

For our mains, we enjoyed a roasted rainbow carrot salad with greens, feta, grains, and other flavorful toppings that made every bite delicious. The pesto pasta, finished with candied pistachios and a generous burrata, was an incredible combination of creamy, nutty, and herbaceous flavors. The seared tuna was perfectly cooked and served with fresh greens, while the grilled lingcod was flaky, moist, and delicately flavored, accompanied by tender beans cooked with tomatoes and other delicious ingredients.

Dessert was equally memorable. The **Les Rochers** was a rich, decadent chocolate pastry, while the **Tarte aux Myrtilles** featured a crisp tart shell filled with berry compote, topped with fresh blueberries and dollops of berry cream. The highlight, however, was the pistachio tiramisu. Our server assembled it tableside using ladyfingers, coffee, whipped cream, pistachios, chocolate, and other ingredients, turning dessert into a fun experience. The portion was enormous and easily enough for our family of four to share.

Outstanding food, impeccable service, and one of the most spectacular dining views on Vancouver Island made this a truly unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.“

“So good!!! Went with my sisters and cousin (all of us from the UK so we know a good scone!). Absolutely DELICIOUS!! Service was also first class, super friendly 💕“

“Absolutely loving the new early hours!!!! 7am opening makes it possible to grab some awesome food prior to work!“

“What’s not to like about ice cream in a freshly made waffle cone?! Mostly gluten free and some vegan options and locally sourced ingredients.“

“Adorable gem in a sea of greasy spoons and high-cal, low-health local spots for breakfast, brunch, or coffee. Loved everything we had here from the bowls to the unique smoothies with a coastal theme and ingredients. They had a couple misses with the order but made up with it with smiles and a quick fix. Overall a couple dollars less than other places - higher quality ingredients and recipes. Good option if your group needs a combo of meat and plant-based options.“

“Everything was home made and incredible. I had the charred broccoli sandwich & it was perfect. I will look forward to my next visit.“

“Heard about this place awhile ago from 365prowrestling since they occasionally do live pro wrestling events here.

Originally went months ago on a Saturday afternoon but it was packed and too crowded to even be able to look around at all the unique crazy spectacular decor or to take photos since too many customers were there.

Kept seeing 5 star reviews so decided to finally go back and try the food this time.

Went on a weekday afternoon. Very quiet and relaxed this time with tons of empty tables and I was able to actually look around at everything this time.

My latte was in a huge Mug and over flowing in a good way. The server did an awesome job of bringing it to my table without spilling it since it was full to the max.

The Brisket sandwich I ordered was massive. I managed to finish most of it. Very tasty and I added the Hotwheels sauce they had on my table.

Awesome presentation and taste. Massive sandwich and they had the knife 🔪 sticking out of it.

Was definitely worth the price and I'll be coming back again to try another unique item to feast on in the future.

After my meal I was extremely full and totally stuffed but managed to look around in the cool gift/merchandise shop they have.

Stuffed raccoon in a Jean jacket on display and lots of cool posters and shirts 👕“

“To start the customer service and atmosphere in this bakery is incredible. It's got great art on the walls. The sourdough options are amazing, whether you like a softer bread or a denser bread. I love the Lunch Pail which is a soft sandwich bread. Their sandwiches on focaccia are very delicious always with a meat and veg option and their veg options are particularly inventive. They make their own house setein for their veg sandwiches which is particularly nice. It's a great family owned business. Their cinnamon bun is a must try. Delighted to have this bakery in the city.“

“Went in for dinner on a recommendation from a friend. OH MY. We went in thinking it would just be another dinner spot - we were so wrong. From when you first enter & you smell the fresh herbs to when you sit down around the table on super comfortable chairs/couches. WOW. The staff were attentive, personal and yet not in your zone too much. Helpful with advice on the food and menu. 10/10. The food was on another planet. We had three dishes in total - one appy and two mains. Cooked perfectly, extremely fresh flavours and large portions. The naan bread… just wow. Delish! Will be coming back and telling everyone about this. They deserve a line out the door.“

“Great coffee, amazing service and dog friendly too!!“

“Wonderful flavour, piping hot , and excellent service. Highly recommended!!!“

“First time there, from Nanaimo for a Geocaching event. I had a London Fog and a Cranberry Lemon Scone. They were both tasty.“

“Good food and service. Enjoyed oysters and fresh sardines.“

“Good food and good people“

“Fantastic!!!! The food was truly amazing and the prices are so reasonable! The bacon was thick and chewy and crispy- just perfect! Of course the biscuits were exceptional and perfectly cut and toasted. I had the egg and bacon Sammy and added tomatoes and avocado. Perfect!!! Group of 6 all raved! A diverse, spread on a theme, and I'm not a gravy fan and it too was delicious. The special steak had homemade dips and stuff, and the vege was it was incredibly complex and yummy looking. I WILL BE BACK!!! The baked goods looked fantastic, but I'm so full!“

“One of the best pizzas I ever had. Great service. Worth travelling for.“

“Best food window in downtown Victoria. Very enjoyable take out. Prices are affordable and portions are big. A lot of Korean and Japanese options. Beef teriyaki was delicious.

Opening hours are limited as its only one lady who runs the whole window. Market Square is lucky to have Mom's Kitchen.“

“Love this place. Fantastic fresh food, great staff!!“

“Having noticed this place on skip for a few years now, l I finally got a chance to try. Outside it does look really inviting almost like a nursery. But upon entering, yeah not so much. Even the owner seemed really tired and I decided to lower my expectations. But as we're aware, never judge a book by it's cover as I was simply confounded with the awesome spice and flavours in every bite. I had the jerk chicken with rice and beans, upon reading the reviews, and everything on the plate was spot on. I've had jerk chicken several times, yet this time it was unique...like home food vibes! One of the best meals this year I'd say. Rustic and without too much fuss.“

“Decided to try the lunch deal because they were close to my work. Incredibly friendly staff, accommodated me when I was having card troubles one day. Delicious pizza always fresh. 6.99 for 2 very large slices by todays standards and that includes a drink. Would pay 10 just for the quality of the experience. Young man that works there every day during lunch hour is one of the nicest people I’ve come across since moving back to island. Please support this business!“

“Amazing vibe, I like the quietness of the place, Sunday morning and not more than a few people here. Just read about the business and what its purpose is and I find this extremely incredible, having found out I have adhd and some other things going on in the past few years this really helps with being myself. Thanks so much for the wonderful cup of coffee.“

“I was one of the lucky winners of a $20 gift card. I went tonight to use it. I was not prepared for the amazing quality and quantity of their food! Huge menu with heaps of delicious options. Outstanding service as well! Many thanks, The Little Thai Place! 😋🤗“

“Staff and atmosphere were pleasant. We thoroughly enjoyed the seafood chowder and crispy chicken sandwich with fries. We would come again“

“Absolutely phenomenal space. Food, atmosphere, service — all 10/10. We’ve visited Vancouver Island twice and have come here at least once both times!! Amazing gluten free options too.

Kaeden was our server and he was the best part of our experience!“

“Prawn Pad Thai from the Sidney location was delicious!! I ordered it as “hot” as it comes, and I will say it packed a punch. Will be back soon!“

“Great staff and owners, delicious food, really enjoyed the homemade potatoes w hot sauce and ketchup. The Eggs Benny w fresh spinach, mushrooms and avocado topped with hollidaise and a sprinkle of cheese hit the spot.“
