7 Best Coffee Shops near Parksville

“May 12, 2025
I'll be visiting my sister who lives in Nanoose Bay next month, June 15-26. I'll be stopping in for my beans to return home, Cornwall Ontario, with. Read up on new roasts before my visit to buy along with many of my favorites. See You Soon :)

Jan 2021. Had new coffee sent to me prior to Christmas by my sister. One of the pkgs was the new Ethiopian Tomme. This new blend was so good yesterday I ordered 3 more pkgs. Maui Dark Roast is another excellent blend. When pandemic is over I am sure to be flying out to Nanoose Bay to visit my sister and stock up on more coffee. Thank goodness I can order online.

Every time I am on Vancouver Island visiting with my sister (I live in Ontario) I stop and load up on Coyote Coffee beans. Recently picked up; Mexican Red Honey Fair Trade Organic Coffee. WOW WOW WOW and excellent full bodied coffee. No bitter after taste. Chocolate notes. Will it become part of your product line? Do you still have some for sale? It made my day :)“

“Stopped in recently with a friend to check out the new renovations and menu and to give Pacific Brimm another try after a previous poor experience when I decided I would not spend my money here anymore for the over priced food and poor service.
Seems little has changed; went for breakfast and after waiting for staff to serve us in a half empty setting, we ended up leaving out of frustration - we even walked directly up to the counter and stood in front of two employees for a few minutes who couldn’t be bothered to even acknowledge us being there.
I was hoping to enjoy the new atmosphere but it was unimpressive and the total lack of customer service was a huge turn off. Doubt I’ll be back again.

*edit*
Gave the Brimm another try today and was promptly greeted by welcoming staff.
Enjoyed the nice back patio in the sun and the atmosphere is pretty wonderful. Seats could use cushions tho, but otherwise very comfortable.

Eggs benny were delicious. Very fresh ingredients, wonderful sauce, and nice muffin.
Side salad was great but the real star is the side hashbrown they make in house with some delicious cheese and garlic mixed in.
Would come back just for the hash brown alone.

Glad I gave this place another try.“

“I had an order for my daughters birthday and was blown away with how amazing it turned out! I definitely recommend going here. The service is wonderful and the treats are just as great! I'm so happy I found this place thank you!!“

“Wow - finally a great coffee/lunch place in Parksville! Awesome baked goods (double baked almond croissant), fabulous coffee (made exactly as requested: extra hot, non fat cappuccino), nice comfortable decor, not too loud, and absolutely wonderful service!“

“easy to find right on the main road good to grab something before heading to the beach.“

“symone is the best employee i have ever seen. My coffee was divine perfection, i could not tip enough. you should immediately give her a raise and a promotion as she is the kindest most hard working young woman i have ever had the pleasure of talking to.“

“Warm, friendly, inviting.“
