They even remembered my husband on our second visit and helped us order in a way that kept us from overdoing it, super thoughtful and appreciated. The food was fresh and delicious both days, and we loved spotting some local Michigan treats on the shelves (a sweet touch for two Michigan natives now living in Seattle!). Great food, great people, and just the kind of hometown charm you hope to find when visiting a new place. Highly recommend!

The location is a convenient inbetween stop if you're visiting the Malahat Skywalk and Hatley Castle. $13CAD/$10USD Smoked Meat Sandwich. If you've never had Canadian Smoked Meat, its "sort of" like pastrami but equally delicious. It was simple sandwich but generously loaded with tasty smoked meat(6-7oz)! It wasn't the same level as Phil's in Quebec City or Schwart's in Montreal, but still good at a great price. The complimentary fresh side of slaw paired nicely. I'm not saying this is the greatest lunch ever, but for only $10 USD this is fantastic value and lunch, especially compared to Seattle/America! I am bit shocked by some of the 1 Star Reviews regarding the owner/operator, because during our visit she was sweet, funny, friendly, and so personable.

We walked here and got here around 11:30. We knew we had chosen well when we saw the line of people waiting to order spilling out onto the sidewalk. You order at the counter and proceed to pay. There are also all kinds of Italian import foods to shop from as well, though as far as we could see, everyone was here for a sandwich. My husband got the Mafioso sandwich and I had the Marco Pollo. He loved his, gave it 5/5 stars. My was quite delicious although it was a bit dry and lacking on the Aioli and Balsamic fig spread, 3/5. All in all, we would come back to try other sandwiches.

We are hooked on stopping in the morning for fresh-made sandwiches, drinks, chips, snacks, and desserts to take along for our day vacationing on the island. The sandwich counter is amazing with giant wraps being made while customers happily wait in line to get them. The store has a great selection of pre-made and packaged sandwiches, desserts, sweetbreads... to grab if you are in a hurry. You will find all of the items you would at a small grocery store here. Most of the other shoppers seem to be locals who were fun to visit with as well as giving some great ideas of places to visit. :)

I did not realize that it had BBQ sauce on it when I ordered it, I tend to be a purist and would have asked for it not to be put on. But OMG I am so happy it was there because it was SO good. Salty, a touch of sweet and spice with lots of brisket. It is a messy overflowing sandwich so I don't recommend driving up mount Walker while trying to eat it. You will likely go off the edge because you can not put the sandwich down! I will be back for more and trying other offerings. Place was super clean with an excellent vibe.

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!
