“We arrived for high tea to celebrate my friends birthday. Seated at a perfect table on the patio over looking the Italian gardens. Our server was lovely. Kept us informed of all of the delightful offerings. We are so grateful to live near this world renowned garden. The high tea did not disappoint from the presentation to the flavours. All of us were so pleased. We will return with more friends and tell everyone about our fabulous afternoon. A stroll in the gardens after topped it off to be a fantastic day.“

“Great coffee, delicious baked goods. Beautiful interior and friendly staff. Happy to quietly set to write and enjoy a cup of coffee. Line up out the door was a testament to the quality, and the speed with which it moved a truly amazing feat by the staff.“

“Love the “Hey Hash” breakfast and the honey latte with house made oat milk! I add cream to it!!! Everyone is so nice and this place is amazing! It is the Disneyland of Coffee. Come try it out for yourself, you’ll thank me later 🙌🏾🙌🏾“

“Excellent coffee. Best coffee shop in Victoria and is independent. Really intimate setting with nice places to sit relax and visit.“

“Best Iced Mocha EVER!!!!!! Visiting from Sequim Washington and just happened on this quaint little coffee shop!!❤️❤️“

“Great atmosphere and epic sandwiches! Recommend the Angry Bird! Top notch.“

“It’s a coffee house with delicious sandwiches and a variety of drinks, and calm and peaceful ambiance.“

“Best coffee I’ve experienced in years ! Finally an espresso medium roast, delightful citrus nodes with a nutty subtle and savoury!“

“Sausage Pesto Muff Stack is the best thing on the menu 😋😋😋😋😋“

“This spot has the markings of an overpriced pretentious vegan joint, but it actually backs up the cost with awesome flavors and fresh-tasting ingredients. The BNB anesthetic also works. Many brunch items are already plant-based forward and can be made entirely vegan by replacing egg with tempeh. I GREATLY enjoyed my vegan eggs benedict. The hollandaise was excellent. Hell even the latte was good. My lacto-ovo partner got the poached eggs on tartine with cashew cheese and also loved it. We gota ginger snap and double espresso cookie to go. Recommended!“

“If you are looking for a delightful latte experience, you must visit the warm, inviting wood deck of Macciato Caffe & Paninoteca. I was able to cozy up my scooter right next to my table and sip and savour their delicious Lavender Latte while watching the florist from “Flowers on Top” select gorgeous peonies from their spring flower selection across the street. Gorgeous spot, simply delightful!“

“Fast, friendly and delish!“

“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.“

“I tried this food truck on the weekend and these gluten free churros were amazing! we are going back for sure!“

“Had an awesome time playing here. Great folks and fun times. Thanks!“

“Love their fresh foods. Favorite is their soup.“

“I highly recommend this small, cozy, homey place. The staff/owners are so friendly and the cook/chef, a wonderfully friendly woman came out a few times and chatted. I came for the German meal tonight and it was fantastic. The red cabbage was like my mom used to make and the schnitzel was pounded into perfection! Topped off with an awesome Black Forest … all deeeelicious.“

“I LOVE Blenz. I’ve been going to Blenz for over 10 years all over BC. This specific Blenz made my drink (matchachillo with yogurt and real powdered cinnamon blended in) PERFECTLY! The staff were super nice and sweet even though I had 2 kids with me and one of them was crying. Super nice and cozy feel. ❤️“

“They have been consistent over the years. Qiality and service seems to be taking a little dip but they are still the top tier 👌. Customer service and experience is and must be the top priority. Plz check how others are doing in market.“

“BEST APPLE FRITTERS“

“Skip the “coffee” at the Empress and have a delicious cappuccino or pour over from Milano Coffee. The pastries and savories looked delicious too!“

“The food and drink are fresh and lighter, which gives you a lovely easy day feeling ~“

“Serena and Ryan are exactly what Nor Coffee needed, they are huuuge big breath of fresh air!! I had an iced americano with the vanilla and cinnamon cold foam as well as the brown butter toffee cookie…. Both were to DIE for!

I will be frequenting this local spot!“

“spiral cafe is the quintessential neighborhood cafe! it's like being at a friend's place for coffee“

“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.“

“The best coffee and customer service ever“

“Best pie we’ve ever had, the peach berry, the chicken and the beef meat pies are amazing, and then there is the staff, I’m sorry we didn’t get your name but you cook and serve and made our visit super special ❤️“

“We are in Calgary Alberta and trying to find a special thing we could do for my boyfriend’s Mom for her Birthday out in Victoria. We thought we’d send her a little breakfast to brighten up her day. Cat’s Coffee and Cake did just that. Not only we’re we told the food was delicious, I asked them to write a little special note and they went above and beyond to make it look really nice and totally special. Thank You so much… 100 thumbs up from Calgary.“

“Lovely coffee Shop nice and cozy. However we are visiting from the UK and was not aware of the tipping etiquette so… if you are travelling from aboard make sure you tip as otherwise the staff will serve other customers first rather than the order of buying the coffee. Don’t make the same mistake I did. 4 people that brought their drinks after me got prioritise as they obviously tipped 🤷‍♀️.“

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

“The owner is very community minded!“

“My girlfriend and I went downtown specifically to enjoy one of their delicious chai lattes. While I was paying for parking, a seagull pooped on me and my brand new hat. We still went to get a drink and told the baristas about the situation. They offered a rag to clean up and made us customers of the day. Definitely the best spot in town!“

“During the protest on Feb 19 I came in to get tea and coffee. I like to support small businesses like this. Nice clean place. Vax pass required to sit in but not to take out. Which was nice. I had a lovely girl serve me and we talked about the egg bites. I thanked her and went to leave and had a woman cruse at me and then threaten to hit me. I kindly asked if she was having a bad day and needed a hug. I then began to record her I case she did proceed with what she said. I want to apologize to all people who were there trying to enjoy a peaceful day, and the the lovely staff who are just trying to do their job in a world that’s gone nuts. Sorry that this woman felt the need to be ignorant and violent to a person who was peacefully and politely getting a tea and coffee. This behaviour in older adults is embarrassing. And I am sorry it happened in your nice establishment. Hopefully it won’t happen again. I’d like to post the woman’s picture since she threatened me. But I’ll save her the embarrassment. Peace and love to you all. Enjoy your coffee and food.“

“After golfing we usually stop at this place as it is on our route has lots of parking spots. Depends on the weather if it isn't hot outside we order coffees and baked goods. If it is hot outside we grab bottles of cold drinks and still find a few options on what baked goods would go well with our cold drinks.“

“I picked up a flat white. It was delicious. Well crafted and the service was friendly and I generally am quite chatty when I go to coffee shops and order. Nice chat on my way in and out. Thank you and I’ll be back again soon. highly recommended to those who like really good coffee.“

“Lovely location and building layout. Very open, a variety of seating options, and quality drinks (I especially enjoy their lattes and mint mochas). They also serve Cold Comfort ice cream sandwiches. Only downside is that many people know how good of a place this is, so it can get crowded :)“

“Best place for a quick breakfast and a perfect latte. Makes an early Monday morning a little better. :)“

“We were visiting Victoria and by chance met Fadi- one of the owners who told us about his family’s cafe. We LOVE Lebanese food so decided to check it out for lunch. We had chicken shawarma donairs and tabouleh and loved it. But most of all his family is so kind and warm and the cafe is super cute! Thank you!“

“Love the matcha latte and the ginger cookies, great quiet place to do some work, thank you so much for the great service 🍵“

“Just brewed up a V60 batch of the Brazil Jaguara Crazy, and it is crazy good. I’ve long been a fan of Discovery Coffee’s single origins for their light roast pourover-friendly profiles, and since moving from the island to Vancouver I have started ordering it for delivery. This stuff is a smash hit.“

“This is a hotel cafe, so the prices are a tad high, but not terrible.

I had breakfast here with my kids. The staff were very friendly. My daughter said the pain chocolat was better than France and my little one loved the overnight oats. The dried fruit was actually much better than the frozen fruit I use at home, so I'll have to try that moving forward.
Sausage breakfast sandwich was also very good.

They were very busy which lead to service being slow (no fault of the staff) so do allow extra time.“

“great spot and great folks running it. everyone there is super welcoming. some of the freshest matcha around!“

“Best soup ever fresh basil is actually fresh they aren't joking lol
As me and my mom left they even remembered our names from our order and said goodbye 🤣
Honestly the kindest company in any cafe I've been to“

“I work across the road and frequently stop in for coffee, and this morning I brought in some of my daycare kids to get some coffee for myself and the staff. The owner (Nadia) gifted us a free hot chocolate with whipped cream and chocolate sauce for each child!! She was incredibly generous, and the children were overjoyed. Suffice to say the service is excellent and I will be back!!! Thank you Nadia!“

“Breakfast“

“This is such a great little place, the lattes are amazing. Maybe even a match for Fantastico or better. Such friendly staff and the musical selection is really cool. Definitely good for a sensory seeker because it can be loud, but I enjoyed it—massaged my brain in the right way.“
