Oxeye, a charming restaurant nestled on Galiano Island, offers a modern and comfortable atmosphere. The menu showcases the chef's creativity through the use of local, natural ingredients. The bakery produces its own bread, likely made in-house, and the coffee is excellent. Customers praise the delicious food, including breakfast sandwiches, salads, soups, and lunch sandwiches, with the pork sandwich described as one of the best. The vegetarian smoked beet sandwich is also highly recommended.
The staff is friendly and attentive, and they remember regular customers. The patio provides a great outdoor space with ample seating to relax. Live music events featuring local bands add to the lively atmosphere. Conveniently located near the ferry and art galleries, Oxeye is a wonderful spot to spend the day.
The restaurant is praised as a great local coffee shop and gathering space, with a nice and shady patio area featuring sturdy outdoor furniture. The service is excellent, and the food is delicious, including the legendary quiche. Oxeye also sells locally made goods, providing a unique shopping experience.
The atmosphere, both indoor and outdoor, is lovely, and the menu features unique items made with ingredients sourced within a 30-kilometer radius. While the cinnamon rolls with cherry and honey were a pleasant surprise, the spring onion quiche was reported to be overly salty, for which the staff provided a complimentary item to compensate.
