Restaurants near Galiano Island

“Great food and reasonable prices. Staff were great too… reminded of Robbie Robertson in a weird Galinno Island sort of way. I’d order from here again without question. We had the house salad (good, real good!) and a half pulled pork/peanut satay curry veg pizza (also good, real good!).”

“I travel often to the Gulf Islands, and remember this Bakery Cafe from when I lived on Galiano and happy its still going strong! Indeed, it is the ONLY place to go for coffee first thing in the morning (like 7 am which means the bakers clock in at 5 am ) ) except for drip coffee at the Garage There is always a line up , waiting for the OPEN sign to light up Inside it is basic, countertop seating, but incredible color photos of resident pods of Orcas are attractively displayed The staff is always smiling and friendly. I love their delicious Turkey sandwiches (day old only $4.50)and fresh Pain au chocolat that tastes tres francais and uses real butter and delicious chocolate fresh baked every morning and by the time I buy two and two coffees and walk to my friend Andrews, they are still warm Thanks Sturdies Bay Bakery Cafe I love you all the time but especially on a cold rainy day at 7 am when NOTHING else is open!CHRISTINA FERRERO YOU TUBE ARTIST LISTEN TO DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER AND NANOOSE BAY LULLABYE ONLINE”

“One of the best nasi gorangs I’ve had! I travelled Bali for 6 weeks last year and this place knocks spots off any restaurant in Indonesia. Amazing flavours. Get the peanut butter sauce too it’s great!”

“Loved our evening at Pilgrimme. The food was delightful, well curated plates of hyper local flavors. We certainly did not leave hungry nor wanting. The service was fantastic and exactly as expected for a restaurant such as this. If you get the opportunity I would absolutely suggest going.”

“Cute shop on Galiano with modern yet comfy atmosphere. Bathrooms very clean and there are 2!Menu has changed in this new location.Cyclist friendly as you can leave your bike outside and still see it. Nice patio.”

“Wonderful setting at the resort, interesting cuisine, and a very pleasant atmosphere. Great view. Staff was friendly and attentive without being in the way. Among the four of us, we pretty much covered all the sandwich options; everyone enjoyed their meals greatly. The Bison Burger, which I had, was lean and yet still juicy, and done just the way I asked for it. Great fries. Good wine. What's not to like?”

“Had fries and onion rings. Both were pretty good. Server was pleasant too. Overall, we were pretty happy. The place is run down but you could just say it has its own unique charm.”

“Great place.Jian’s sandwich’s are always excellent. The new benchmark for island service and food quality. Much more than just a bakery.. Particularly fond of the savoury scones, and miso cookies.. high quality bread, great crust and crumb. .”

“Had a great breakfast this morn at this special café in the heart of Ganges. Chilaquiles and a deeeelicious (and quite pretty) latte. New owners José Barraza and family are working hard to diversify the menu con un sabor mexicano!”

“Always busy, with good reason. Setup changed but still busy.Still an amazing place, especially if the weather is good….That very nearby (Swanson) creek needs a little TLC, time to adopt a creek?”

“We discovered Chef Jeremy’s food 6 months ago and have been weekly regulars ever since.. His Butter Chicken is incredible, the Pankora are crisp and spicy, nan bread is thin and moist. He grinds his own spices and every ingredient is fresh and local.On Valentines Day we ordered takeout Butter Chicken and it was the most flavorful we have ever eaten. He added Multiple dipping sauces, chopped vegetables, nan with a delicious dip and more.His repertoire is expansive so we asked for a french meal a few weeks ago. Fabulous ! We now order from him weekly and enjoy a gourmet meal at home for an unbelievable reasonable price.He is so enthusiastic about his food and a pleasure to deal with.Don’t miss this Saltspring Island treasure!

“I've been a Basil's customer since moving to SSI from Vancouver 3 years ago and was eager to try all the food venues right away. Not much has stayed with me since but Basil's Pizza sure has. Have only ever tried the Margarita as I'm vegetarian but It's got pure ingredients and a very sophisticated, high quality, simplicity. Best pizza on the Island, as far as I'm concerned, and Vancouver, as well. I can't rate Basil's Pizza highly enough.”

“Scandinavian fine dining in Ganges. A beautiful spot in a house with wood framed windows. Beautiful tablecloths, linens, and table settings. The food matched. Delicious appetizers, mains (I really enjoyed the venison and my wife the sablefish). And I got my favourite—chocolate for dessert. Go and have a great meal.”

“Wow. I am not kidding when i say that I come here at least twice a week for the Veggie Eggs Benny. MMM. I can’t believe dagwoods Isn’t the busiest place ever being one of the only places on salt spring that have all day breakfast, that is not only delicious but very reasonably priced.Yea they could have some music playing instead of silence, but man I just can’t get enough of the Eggs Benny. It’s just so perfect and delicious. The hash browns are crispy on the outside but creamy inside, the eggs are always perfectly cooked, the vegetables are perfect, and the hollandaise is yummy and the perfect amount.Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options”

“We had a delicious meal at the cafe this morning! The food was sooo tasty and made with fresh ingredients. The prices were very reasonable. Service was great and the atmosphere is funky! Love visiting this restaurant whenever we get over to the island for a visit?”

“Really great cider, and a cool atmosphere. To be honest the food was disappointing (had the gnocchi and it was not great - was watery for some reason), but still had a fun time here with friends! Like that its dog friendly too”

“Great take out fire oven pizza truck. Perfect when you arrive on the afternoon ferry and want to grab some dinner before heading to your vacation rental. Conveniently located near the Thrifty Foods so you can pop over to grab groceries while you wait. We sampled 4 pizzas and all of them we delicious.”

“We really enjoyed biking from the main town area over to the Vesuvius harbor area. There are not many businesses nearby, so we were thrilled to find this local cafe. The coffee was nice, and after lots of biking, the grilled sandwiches were the perfect lunch. If you’re in the area or waiting in the ferry line, definitely make this a stop on your itinerary. Thanks for the great service!”

“Anything that isn't poutine kinda sucks, not gonna lie. I had the Crispy Chicken sandwich, and it was not worth the price of admission. Tasted like a Jane's breaded chicken patty deep fried. The poutine, however? Pretty good! Highly recommend the poutine, their gravy and fries are amazing.Kid-friendliness: Not very friendly to small children, the park it's located in has a nasty wasp problem during the summer and fall.”

“This food truck is run by the local high-school culinary class. They serve salads made almost entirely from their garden so you know the ingredients are top notch. They also offer a different sandwich and a soup each day. You must do the salad. You choose from a long list of ingredients including their own dressings. Try the soup or sandwich if you can as well. As a local we go there often and any guest we've taken remarks they will be coming back to the island for the salad! Only open over the summer! Check that it's open before you come.”

“Music was a little loud. View was great, sports on tv. Live music and a fiddle player that was amazing.Ramen was meh and the fish and chips was awesome. Would recommend.Want to go back for duck wings on wing night :)”

“Unpretentious, old-fashioned service, store-baked products, local family owned - a Saltspring Island gem that long-time Islanders love!What other service opens before sunrise?”

“Del Vecchio Pasta Fresca is a must destination when visiting Salt Spring Island for fresh pasta and pizza lovers. Owner and Chef Max creates delicious Italian favorites. We tried Ravioli filled with porcini mushrooms and the Margherita pizza... both were delicious and served with big smiles. This small place is worth a detour. "Forza Italia" and "complimenti" team Max.”

“The best coffee, exclusively imported and roasted by Salt Spring Coffee. Love that they open early. I was one of the first there but by 9:00 a.m. it's full of people and conversation and great energy.”

“Final supper on the island before our journey back to the prairies. This supper was memorable. Large portions, great seafood linguine, good chowder, fish and chips and the shrimp platter. Service was great, our servers were a pleasure to talk with and made us feel valued and welcome. When we return to the island, this place will be on our must visit list again!”

“This was our go to coffee shop in Ganges. The coffee is local and great. All treats were made on site and were delicious, tasty, and fresh. The service was very good and welcoming. The place has a nice laid back vibe inside and nice tables outside to chill and relax away from traffic.”

“The most friendly and helpful staff. We accidently forgot a shopping bag during our visit and Tim was kind enough to ship it back to us. Unreal service! Amazing bagels! 10/10”

“I always go here every time I come to saltspring! I always get the 50/50 mix usually green curry+peanut sauce and it’s delicious. The fact that protein is included in the price is unheard of over in Victoria. I can’t believe some people would complain about the cost as I’ve always thought it was an insanely low price especially for saltspring. Overall delicious, affordable food, super nice owners and consistent.”

“Excellent meal,friendly staff,ordered the lemon dill seafood Alfredo,delicious. My partner ordered the rack of lamb cooked to perfection. You don’t mind paying a premium price for a well cooked meal and terrific ambiance .Located on Salt Spring Island on the water.”

“Food is great quality appreciate that they have such a variety of dinner for one. Portion could be a little bigger for the rice and noodles though. Otherwise great.”
