Well all that changed during our covid lockdown and we were not disappointed! Wow, the "stay at home at Dad" pierogies were amazing and the Gnocchis with Brussels sprouts a perfect accompaniment. We also took a potato bread home, great fresh, but also perfect toasted for our Sunday bacon and egg brunch. Give this delightful team a try, they are passionate about producing top quality eats!

Easily one of the most popular spots on Vancouver Island…read more The sun peaked out in January and everyone and their mom visited Shirley Delicious Cafe. To be honest, I completely understand why. This cafe is a step above the rest. The inside is cozy, with a cabin-esque vibe and clear ceilings in their dining room for an indoor-outdoor feel. Despite the line of 20+ people, Shirley Delicious worked like a well oiled machine. Their menu included breakfast, lunch, and even a flight of soup (which I so desperately wanted). I ordered their date pastry, a hot caramel latte, and breakfast sandwich with avo. Each item was absolutely delicious. This is also a great location to shop for island goodies. Their storefront is filled with jams, sauces, metal working artwork, etc. Can't believe they can pack so much goodness into four little walls!

This was truly an amazing find! Tucked in the forest, this cafe is definitely delicious!…read more Definitely get here early as there could be a line out the door! We lucked out, thankfully. You order and pay first, then find a seat inside or outside. Ample seating options. For drinks, they'll call your name and you pick it up at the counter, while they will bring you your entrée. We came for breakfast, so I had a croissant BLT Harvati sandwich and a latte. My friend had a vegan wrap and a latte as well. The whole indoor feels like a greenhouse once before and transformed to indoor cafe. There are tons of metal welding artwork around and many little retail shopping corners inside. My croissant did not let me know, it was so delicious! They also have a small coffee/ice cream/grab-n-go trailer outside. Overall it's a nice place for breakfast or lunch! We tried coming back again, but the power went out so we weren't able to order anything AND have cash. Guess I'll have to come back to visit!

We stopped initially for a quick ice cream bar but these were no DQ bars, they are completely hand made with unique flavours. At $6.00 each they are a touch pricey but totally worth it.

Cool to see a little operation be environmentally conscious...

We chose their cranberry scones, and tried their specialty treat (I forget its exact name now) made with dates, nuts and chocolate, covered in sesame seeds. The scones were warmed up for us, they tasted fluffy and nice. Those mysterious treats were a sensation! Their layered, sophisticated flavor was a pleasant surprise. On the walls were displayed (for sale) photo artworks of a local artist. Since the shop was closing down for the day, and we were the only customers left, the young barista had a nice chat with us, during which she taught me the nicknames for Canadian dollar coins: one dollar is called "looney" and 2-dollar "tuny". I was very happy to leave the tuny with her :-)
