Tea Restaurants near Victoria, BC

“One of my favourite places to go. Wonderful atmosphere. Great staff and the best tea in Victoria.“

“Love the matcha latte and the ginger cookies, great quiet place to do some work, thank you so much for the great service 🍵“

“LOVE this shop! I come here whenever I need a gift for someone who's hard to shop for, or for an out-of-towner. There is a wonderful variety of local and handcrafted things, and they also sell a big variety of looseleaf tea. Staff is always friendly. I would happily spend an entire paycheque here (and several hours of browsing) if I could!“

“Love their teas being so well balanced and absolutely delicious! So down to earth and exactly the taste you are looking for! Just got my another 6 flavour package! Very excited that can order online!!!“

“The grounds are well kept with probably the largest variety of plants in the area. The tour was easily paced and very informative. My grandmother was able to easily walk around and see everything. The afternoon tea was delicious and our favorite part of the visit! 10/10 💫 🩵“

“I have been a fan of Merchies coffee for many years. I thought they went out of business when the store I used to buy at disapeared. Then my son got me some Merchies for xmas a few years back I was so excited to find out there were still around! . I wish they would open a store in Chilliwack. I now order my coffee on line . I am in Heaven with my morning coffee now. Merchies Best ...is the best!“

“Unbelievable service from Kiera. The service and excellence is beyond expectations. Thank you for your hospitality.“

“The latte is velvety smooth and the breakfast croissant was filling. There are lots of food to choose from and the prices are very reasonable. No wonder it’s very popular amongst the locals.“

“Just a nice place to get some good comfort food. The volunteers are great and so helpful as are the paid student summer help. The money earned goes to a lot of very deserving non profits.“

“My wife and visit the gardens each summer and usually treat ourselves to the high tea. This year we felt the sandwiches were a bit bland and it appeared the menu was unchanged from 2025. Service was pretty good although the tea was not as hot as it could have been. Enjoyed the garden view from the outside terrace but be aware there can be wasps. Expensive for what you get but it is a nice treat!“

“A nice, large coffee shop. We just wanted some light fare so we took some pastries (fruit almond brioche and strawberry cream danish), which were excellent. Also took a chai latte and a hot chocolate. Good service and room. Good prices. Highly recommend.“
