This was our second time at the restaurant for Christmas dinner, the last time was 2 years ago. We made our reservation in early December.
They have a set menu dinner. We had a crab ball dish appetizer first and could have been half the size. Had no crab flavour and was over powered by a red hot sauce. Then we had a traditional turkey dinner. Complete let down. The part that was ok was a few brussel sprouts. We didn’t finish half over half of it. We didn’t stay for desert as we were too let down. We got it to go. For the price and lack of quality of the food we will not be going back. Disappointing Christmas dinner.

The moment you step inside, you’re greeted with warm wood tones, vintage-inspired décor, earthy colors, and laid-back groove, thanks to being located in Hotel Zed.

If you’re craving great coffee with a side of 1970s nostalgia, Roar Coffee & Shop absolutely nails it. A must-stop on any Tofino visit.

Went for the coffee shop. 3 croissants was the total of baked goods. Coffee ok. There is a restaurant there but if you are going to the coffee shop go somewhere else. Hotel is nice very retro.

Poorly trained staff, can't make a proper coffee. Came at 9am and no baked goods for sale. Very dissapointing experience.

Roar Live Fire & Grill offers an excellent bar and dining experience, excellent drinks with flexibility on the menu from custom requests, friendly staff and good food a strong recommendation for anyone in the area.

Great ambiance with a lively atmosphere and some excellent scran! Best scotch egg on either side of the pond.

Great coffee and interesting items in the shop! Was a lovely little find on our recent vacation to Tofino. One of the cashiers was also super nice and offered recommendations on places to see around town. Highly recommend!

Came across this little gem of a spot in Tofino and will definitely be coming back on our next visit into town! We both got the two eggs any style and the chef gladly swapped the sausage for a salad upon request. Service was great and atmosphere had a chill eclectic vibe with ample seating.

We had a fabulous breakfast here during our stay in Tofino. We had the ham eggs Benny and the mushroom hash and oh boy was it ever flavourful and quite a generous portion. I’d love to go back and definitely recommend it to anyone passing through. The vibes of the building are also quite neat and vintage which made for a unique experience.

Such a funky spot. Great coffee and pastries. Staff are super kind and inclusive. Ask about the hidden room behind the bookshelf.

Probably the slowest and most inconvenient coffee shop that I’ve ever gone to. A simple drip coffee can take up to 40 minutes to get. The female behind the counter with blonde hair has no sense of how to manage her time with clearly no accountability from a management perspective. People who value their time, beware.

Pretty decent place but service for mornings take a long time, around 45+ mins for food so maybe take that into account.
Food was decent but the spuds were not spuds, they were more like fries.
Slightly pricey but overall pretty average price for the area.
