Restaurants near Mayne Island

“We went for dinner as a group of five, and everyone was raving about their meal. My husband and I shared a platter, and all I can say is—it was absolutely delicious. The platter was beautifully presented with rice, julienned vegetables, pickled onions, and our three choices of protein: Laotian ribs, tofu, and chicken souvlaki. Every single item was fantastic, but the chicken really stood out—it was incredibly tender. The Caesar salad was included as part of the social platter, and we were asked if we wanted it served for sharing—which worked out perfectly, as there was more than enough for all five of us. I don’t usually order Caesar salad anymore since I make a pretty good one myself, but this one easily tops the list as the best I’ve had. Service, as always, was friendly and efficient.”

“Their list of offerings are genuinely delicious and the seasonal tastes are remarkable. With genial hosts in this wonderful setting, it is not to be missed.”

“Today we tried the cinnamon twists, jalapeno and cheese criossants, and their breakfast sandwiches. absolutely amazing. The only downside to this visit, is that I won't be able to have more and try their other delicious looking bakery items until I return to Salt Spring.

“Coffee + Kitchen at WOODS on Pender is hands-down my favourite spot on the island. Their croissants are flaky and buttery, the quiche is perfectly rich, and the macarons are a delightful treat — clearly made with real care. The coffee is excellent, and the personal service makes every visit feel special. They have gluten free and vegetarian options too.

The atmosphere is amazing — stylish, modern-rustic decor with great music playing in the background. It’s the kind of place you want to linger in with a coffee and pastry. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Pender Island!”

“Ideal spot for a quick coffee and lite bite. Service was quick. Tables needed cleaning, however, sign outside door warned customers that they were short staffed and if you were going to complain requested you submit a resume instead. Loved it!!”
