“Hank's Bakery, just off the busy highway on Duncan’s outskirts, is a local favorite that’s well worth the extra drive. This bakery-café hybrid focuses on fresh-made food and seasonal specials, drawing in a steady stream of customers who don’t mind the bustling atmosphere for a taste of Hank’s quality.
The bakery is often packed, and space inside is tight. Seating is limited, with a few small tables and a bar area that suits solo diners or those just grabbing a quick bite. It’s more of a grab-and-go spot than a sit-and-stay café, but the food keeps people coming back.
Hank's stands out for its focus on fresh ingredients, which sets it apart from typical cafés that prioritize drinks. Their menu is always changing, with seasonal specials adding variety and keeping things exciting. Whether it’s fall-inspired pastries or summer-fresh salads, Hank’s makes the most of each season’s flavors.
Overall, I’d rate Hank’s a 7.2/10. The quality of the food and seasonal offerings are huge pluses, though the busy, cramped space makes it a better fit for quick stops than extended visits. If you're in the area, it’s a must-try for fresh, flavorful fare!“

“My team and I had a quick coffee run before heading to our office. I had my go-to drink which is absolutely top-tier. I've tried caramel macchiato from many places, but Tim Hortons truly sets itself apart. Every cup ive had here has been consistently rich, flavorful, and brewed to perfection. I would also like to commend their staff for being accommodating and nice.“

“I have told everyone about how wonderful the staff were. There were 2 older ladies working that day. SO friendly and nice, the one lady went out of her way to be helpful and nice, made a huge effort to be accommodating. If this SB was closer to home, it would definitely be my go-to place!!
Parking: Small parking lot.“

“This little coffee shop is everything. The owners are incredibly kind, friendly, always welcoming- they make you feel like family. My son and I agree it’s our favourite. Seriously the best coffee I’ve ever had. A true gem in Shawnigan.“
