Coffee Shops near Saanichton

“This is a great spot. They make good coffee and good breakfast wraps. Pretty quick to serve unless it’s busy. They have fair prices also and are open an hour earlier than some of the other coffee shops around so now I come here in the mornings.“

“Although I am not exactly the target audience for an English Tea room, I have to say that Butchart far exceeded any expectations! Although we have been to the Gardens many times over the last 4 decades, this is the first time that my wife suggested that we take “High Tea” before our stroll through the amazing gardens... And of course it proved to be a wonderful idea as I relished every bite and sip (we also had the 3-glass “taster” which paired with the food nicely)... I will absolutely be taking tea on our next visit!“

“This deli has many Mediterranean items for sale which takes up most of the store. There’s a few tables in the middle of the store for people who want to sit and eat. And there is a big kitchen with display counters that are refrigerated for all the prepared foods that are made here. My favourites are spanakopita, and a Greek dessert bougatsa. Phyllo pastry wrapped around an inner filling of luscious not too sweet custard. I’ve never tried it, but I hear good things about their pizza. ? in fact, I think I go back today and try it.They also have lots of staff in the kitchen to serve you. Pictures next time.“

“Not what I was expecting but BETTER!!!! This place was amazing and the cafe was modern, bright, cute and spacious !! They have plant based mills which was the main thing I was seeking out. And many different syrups too. My latte was amazing!!! They have a full staff so ordering was quick and my coffee came out pretty fast too for having a lot of people. I recommend if you are in the area! They have a cute side shop in the store too with cute mugs and powders to buy etc.“

“This is the go-to spot for your coffee's. They have a wide variety of options, from muffins, sweets, sandwiches, breakfast items, and lunch options. There is also a section of the store front in Emporium that sells a variety of locally made items. I go to the Emporium at least 2 to 3 times a week. The staff is friendly and quick. I have never waited too long for my coffees. As long as I'm working close to the Emporium I will be going there for my coffee breaks regularly.“

“LOVE their vegan sandwiches. It’s a budget-friendly place with lovely staff and the BEST vegan brownie I’ve ever had. Lattes are great and milkshakes reportedly superb friends tell me. It’s a bustling place where finding a table at lunch can be a challenge but you worth that small hurdle.“

“Nice little sideway cafe. Great to sit on their patio in the sun. The tuna sandwich was delicious - fresh bread and tuna and homemade soup every day. It was so good I forgot to take a picture until I was 1/2 done?Go for the 1/2 sandwich and soup special !“

“I go here every couple of weeks for the last year with my partner and the lovely woman that owns the shop & her teenage kid run it and are so sweet and caring. I was excited to find that we had bingsoo in Victoria since we as a city are lacking a lot of good treats, so it's well worth the drive and the bingsoo never misses ?We love the mango the best, but also strawberry, Oreo, grape(w/ yogurt bingsoo), and the brown sugar boba bingsoo too!My partner also likes to order in a lot and gets 2 at a time. They freeze well and are like a yummy frozen project to chip your way through when you want a treat later!The Nutella taiyaki is also our fav. Thaws our tongue after our mouth is too cold and lets us keep going on the bingsoo!“

“My friends & I thoroughly enjoyed Alexander's Coffee two days in a row! We ordered: a macchiato, a latte, the cinnamon bun, and the peanut butter crunch bar. They were all fabulous! The staff were also wonderful- friendly, courteous, & helpful!“

“I found this place while waiting in a ferry line with 2 sailing waits to the mainland. We had lunch and roamed the facility we came across so many things that were right up our alley , kayaking , tours , and a nice place to eat. They even have a boat launch. We decided to extend our stay , got out of the line up , got a VRBO, and explored.Best decision for us we had a great time. The staff at the marina took care of so well, better than BC ferries could. What a Great stay. I would recommend this place to all.“

“Such a great vibe - love all the community involvement you are doing - Open Mic night, local authors, Comedy night, local artists etc. Staff are always so helpful and cheery.Vegetarian options: Veggie sandwiches, fruit, Veggie roll, protein balls, Italiano Panini etcKid-friendliness: They love kids - yummy hot chocolate and cookies!“

“My online order was ready, but when I grabbed my ice latte cup, the lid was not properly closed, I end up spilling a quarter of my drink, I told both girls about the lid and they did not acknowledge the problem, just looked at me like if it was my fault.“

“Contrary to the asinine review “Cricket Hartley” left, Quince cafe is wonderful and has some amazing staff. It is a shame people like cricket are so displeased with their lives they feel the need to tear others down, just look at their previous reviews! I have always enjoyed visiting quince and the service I’ve received. Thank you for all the hard work and love you contribute to the community.Vegetarian options: 10/10Kid-friendliness: 10/10Parking: 10/10Wheelchair accessibility: 10/10Dietary restrictions: 10/10“

“Stopped for coffee, a muffin and a sandwich on a road trip heading up to the Cathedral Grove old growth Forest. The coffee was flavorful, the muffin was fresh that morning, and so was the sandwich. There were a few tables in there with locals solving world problems.“

“We had a late Sunday breakfast. Our server was exceptional and breakfast was excellent. The room and view perfect. I highly recommended and will return without doubt, my first choice for a nice breakfast out now. Look forward to trying dinner. Once again, congratulations on the fabulous service“

“Quality coffee, friendly service, and delicious baked goods delivered fresh every morning from bubby roses. You'll love this bakery if you like fancy coffee, delicious sandwiches, and delectable, expertly crafted pastries such as pain au Chocolat and so much more. It's kinda funny that this place also functions as the concessions stand for screenings at cinecenta but the popcorn is good too :)Prices are higher than the other cafe in the SUB but still quite competitive when compared to the rest of Victoria.“

“We pulled off the highway to get coffee and fell in love with this little coffee shop, great coffee, baked goods, and lunch items. All delicious!! The rustic atmosphere, grass courtyard, and fun & friendly service all made it a perfect stop. Highly recommend visiting Rusticana Coffee :)“

“i come here constantly due to working nearby, and have never had a bad experience. lovely staff, and despite it being a very busy environment with lots of people i find everything is always ready very quickly. there are lots of outlets everywhere so it's a good spot to do work on your laptop.“

“=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE It's Tims and it's in the airport: so it's likely run by Sodexo (embedded locations in Canada are not managed by franchisees/corporate head office). So if you have a hankering for Tims while at the airport, get it here! (Though I wish there was a location behind security in the Departures area :) === 2. FOOD On this visit, I happened to have the: - Bacon Egg English Muffin - Bacon BELT on an Everything Bagel - Fruit Explosion Muffin; and, - Water.The food meets the Tims standards!Note: when buying any drink in this pre-Departures area, the drink must be consumed or poured out prior to entering the passenger screening area. I waste some water every time...but rules are rules I guess!=== 3. SERVICE There is often a difference between these embedded locations and franchised locations and it's present here too. It's alright; staff are professional and fast enough for what it is.=== 4. ENVIRONMENT It's a walk-up counter, food court-style, so you're not dining in per se - though there are some communal tables and chairs in the airport behind this kiosk. Those with wheelchairs and baby strollers can roll right up to the counter. Parking: I assume you're not driving to the airport just for the Tims, but I if you are, the airport has plenty of space!“

“I’ve honestly stopped going to any other Starbucks location other than Shelbourne Plaza!I have a “complicated” drink and they’re always so nice to me when I need to make modifications to it!I get the strawberry açai lemonade with extra base. They don’t know this but I have a chronic vomiting disorder and if my drink has too much acid I will puke, which is why I am so picky. They’re always so nice to add extra base if needed which is way less than at other Starbucks locations because they actually read the drink tag.I’m so grateful for this location and them always being kind when accommodating my needs! They truly go above and beyond.“

“Great place for coffee. Too bad there’s no seatings inside.It’s a great place to stop for coffee on our way to the ferry. Only seatings are outside. Little chilly at 7 degree on a Nov afternoon. Good selection of pastries and sandwiches. Also have your regular specialty coffee. Lots of parking.“

“The space is relatively small, with four (4) small 2-person tables as well as some additional outdoor seating. Two of the tables are right next to power outlets, and the WiFi is great, so if you need to do some work on a laptop it's a nice spot if there's available tables. I was there from 11:00 am - 2:15 pm on a Monday and the only time that all the indoor seating was occupied was right at the beginning after I arrived, but by the time I received my order a couple spots had opened up.Parking: The Tillicum mall parking lot is right outside and ensures plenty of available parking.Dietary restrictions: They have options for milk alternatives available.“
