Taste - A Place For Coffee

Amazing prices and simple delicious meals and baked goods. Few places can I find perfectly brewed unsweetened ice tea, this is the place. The gentleman who works there is incredibly kind and understand. It’s my favorite little spot to go, and I always grab an apple strudel.

Dietary restrictions: Super adaptable to restrictions and understanding of cross contamination.

When I was kid in Victoria there was a small diner that I’d frequent when I was old enough. It tasted like home, if you know what I mean. I love big fancy meals as much as everyone else but achieving that taste of home is hard to accomplish. This place has done it. The food is simple, good quality, good flavour, generous, and so far quick. The two people I’ve met running everything are always kind and quick to offer a smile.

Best gluten free sandwiches ever! Family run business that doesn’t skimp on fillings. I get my toasted sandwiches here and they have really nice tea as well, loose leaf good quality. I come here weekly and generally don’t eat out places often but the quality is so great that I come here after my physiotherapy upstairs and it’s the perfect boost.

The washroom is very clean and spacious, wheelchair or stroller friendly, and has a changing table.

We went on a nice quiet afternoon: the gentleman working was very patient with little kids choosing their snack. Chai latte was delirious as well as the Turkey sandwich. Would come back when in the area .

Enjoyed half of a delicious turkey sandwich on fresh brown bread. The service was great and the setting was cozy.

Love Sam's place!

I have been here several times now and am extremely impressed with the service and the prices. The latte is the best I have had in town and the baked goods are fresh and yummy.

I specifically went here for coffee so I cannot comment on the food. I have been twice now to make sure the first time was not just a fluke. The coffee here is very weak and watered down. It barely tastes like coffee if you put cream in it. If the owner were to correct this problem and brew the coffee a bit stronger I think it would be good coffee, but as it is now I would not get my coffee here. Too bad as it’s really close by and convenient.

Review was based on old location as they were moving. May be doing a lot stronger in their new location on View.

I really love this little place, having recently found it. The owners are very kind, the food is simple (mostly sandwiches etc), but tasty and reasonably priced, the coffee is good, and there is a nice mix of comfy places to site with good natural light.

Vegetarian options: Veg sandwich, veg breakfast sandwich, egg sandwiches and a good vegan protein bar etc.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space and comfy booths for kids, very friendly.
