“I had the best oat milk latte and chilli. the service was wonderful, and they were accommodative to my celiac allergy and replaced the complimentary bread with a gluten free brownie at no extra charge. i was so pleased i went back within the week. definitely a hidden gem and i wish i discovered this place sooner! i want to come by every time i’m in the valley if i can.“

“I’ll drive to get my beans!! Def my fav roaster on the island!! They also rock a mean raspberry scone. Yum!“

“My party had both regular dishes and the vegetarian. Food was great. They have opened a new section of the restaurant since the last time I was there. It made it much more enjoyable as the tables are further apart. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.“

“Hank's Bakery, just off the busy highway on Duncan’s outskirts, is a local favorite that’s well worth the extra drive. This bakery-café hybrid focuses on fresh-made food and seasonal specials, drawing in a steady stream of customers who don’t mind the bustling atmosphere for a taste of Hank’s quality.

The bakery is often packed, and space inside is tight. Seating is limited, with a few small tables and a bar area that suits solo diners or those just grabbing a quick bite. It’s more of a grab-and-go spot than a sit-and-stay café, but the food keeps people coming back.

Hank's stands out for its focus on fresh ingredients, which sets it apart from typical cafés that prioritize drinks. Their menu is always changing, with seasonal specials adding variety and keeping things exciting. Whether it’s fall-inspired pastries or summer-fresh salads, Hank’s makes the most of each season’s flavors.

Overall, I’d rate Hank’s a 7.2/10. The quality of the food and seasonal offerings are huge pluses, though the busy, cramped space makes it a better fit for quick stops than extended visits. If you're in the area, it’s a must-try for fresh, flavorful fare!“

Parking: Small parking lot.“

“Josiah was extremely helpful to help me choose a new drink! i was trying to decide what drink when he came up and helped me. he was not in uniform, so i thought he was just a helpful customer. turns out he took time before he started his shift to help me. the drink he helped me chose was amazing! he even ordered it for me as it was confusing!“

“Tim Hortons on trans Canada and bench road is the bomb! The staff is so lovely and their food is ALWAYS fresh!
I’m talking beat hash brown EVER!
I live closer to millbay but the bench rd location is well worth the drive as the service and freshness is much higher quality!
And they are always fast!“
