It was on my list to try because I saw in the reviews that they offered vegan and gluten-free options. I picked up a vegan Nanaimo bar to go. I was surprised to see there was no indication of anything being gluten-free, even though all of their Nanaimo bars apparently are and it it clearly indicated on their outside sign they have vegan and gluten free options. On my way out, I asked the cashier if they had gluten-free bread in case I wanted to come back another time for a sandwich, and the only answer I got was a simple “no.” That was disappointing.
But the worst part was when I took my first bite of the Nanaimo bar at home. It had a very strong taste of old cupboard. It was inedible and honestly disgusting. I spit it out and threw it away. That’s when I saw the bottom which looks really old.
Clearly the vegan one was very old and doesn’t sell well, but please either keep better track of older inventory or stop selling items that don’t move. The way you do anything is the way you do everything. I would never go back.

Bocca is a simply darling little shop. I ordered the strawberry matcha iced latte and it was super delicious and photo worthy. May gave me wonderful service. She was super friendly and knowledgeable, running the cash and making the drinks quickly. There is all sorts of local art and jewellery for sale in there which makes it feel extra homey and cute.

The sampler of Nanaimo bars was so yummy! It was our first time trying them, and they did not disappoint!
One of many cafes we tried in Nanaimo while going on Nanaimo adventure. They were decent. Not the best ones we tried but good enough to recommend to try! We tried maple and strawberry Nanaimo bars

Coffee was great but the scone was like a dry and crumbly brick!
The carrot szechuan soup is incredible!
