“Literally the kindest people who put so much care and attention into both their food and service. No matter how busy it is, I've never waited longer than 10 minutes! The fish is high quality and always fresh and the rice is perfectly seasoned. Salt spring is so lucky to have such good sushi 💞”

“Today I had an amazing Chicken salad BLT wrap, and it was the most delicous wrap i have ever had!! The sides were great too, pesto pasta and asian noodles. Thank you to the wonderful ladies who made my lunch, they put in so much love and passion. I will definitely be getting lunch here again. Thank you so much!!”

“Great place for some good old boys to hang out.”

“Amazing prices in an expensive town!”

“We love your gluten free menu options and sampling your delicious ciders. Beautiful atmosphere. Cheers!”

“Can you please label the gluten free options on the menu? it's a hassle to have to ask every time and not all of the servers have every item memorized (which is understandable) thanks 😎”

“Superb pizza with healthy ingredients.”

“Francis Bread nails every detail, from their perfect sourdough to the incredible ham – tender, smoky, and sliced paper-thin with absolute precision. It's the kind of ham that melts in your mouth and pairs flawlessly with their fresh, crusty bread.

The whole experience is thoughtful, from ingredients to presentation. Quiet, humble, and unforgettable. Don’t miss it.”

“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. Their staff were also amazing and very good on handwashing between duties. I highly recommended this bakery!”

“Great old school scratch bakery. Just like my Nana used to make. Reasonable prices. Friendly service. Good coffee. I wish I had a place like this at home but sadly this type of bakery is rapidly disappearing in favour of mass produced flash frozen product a la Tim Hortons. Salt Spring is very lucky!”

“Amazing coffee, some of the friendliest and accommodating service on salt spring, cozy atmosphere, best banana bread, chai tea and gluten free treats. I love this place! :)”

“This is my favourite spot to eat on Saltspring I always have a hectic day there towing and I come in famished and they seat me right away and feed me real good. I'm not even a local and they welcome me and are glad to see me. Lots of parking, food is excellent, prices are fair. Highly recommended.”

“Always so friendly and polite, great service and tasty food. The yellow curry & pad thai box is so delicious!”

“Incredible little coffee shop - we had delicious coffee and excellent baked goods and breakfast sandwiches. Very nice inside and they have a great patio as well.”

“We had the most wonderful evening at this restaurant — everything from the food to the service to the setting was exceptional. Reservations recommended!! Our servers, Jana and Elliotte, were incredible — so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. They made us feel completely welcome and taken care of throughout the night. We started with a few shared dishes — the Beef Carpaccio, Saganaki Cheese, Foie Gras and Pickled Beets — each one perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. The Seared Scallop Entrée was a standout as well: fresh, beautifully cooked, and elegantly plated. We paired everything with a crisp glass of Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc, which complemented the dishes perfectly. We sat outside on the lovely deck overlooking the marina and the ocean — such a peaceful and beautiful setting. Great food, and amazing service made for a truly memorable night. Life is good—100% recommend — can’t wait to come back.”

“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!!”

“Pizza Daddy is the man. Great pizza! Variety and flavour!”

“Stopped in for Brunch. Absolutely loved the food, the service and the atmosphere. We’re looking forward to more visits.”

“was recommended to come here by a friend and it certainly was NOT a disappointment. good food and good service!! and the JAM yummy!!!”

“Great food! All of it is amazing so far.”

“I love Salt spring Coffee, I drink it everyday at home. Stopped in to the cafe on my way to the ferry and I told the cashier that I wanted a coffee, muffin and a roasted veg egg white bite as I pointed to it in the display case. Somehow I didn’t realize how much my bill was when I tapped my card - and ended up waiting over 10 minutes for the girl to hand me a to-go container that had a full eggs Benedict meal with hash browns. I didn’t have time to return it as I was almost late for the ferry and checked my card later that was charged $34 for a meal that I didn’t order or eat. Im confused how the cashier misunderstood my order as I pointed to it in the display case and the full dine-in breakfast menu is in a completely different spot. I know it’s difficult with masks to understand people right now, so maybe training your staff to repeat the order if they are unsure because people have allergies and it’s so disappointing when you are commuting to work and don’t get to eat breakfast!! :(”
