I took a two-month hiatus from my job to travel the western United States and Canada with my good friends. Needless to say, I saw a great number of surf shops and campgrounds. This place. This place? It does both. It has the most dope, unassuming, chill, and friendly surf shop on the same piece of land where the campground is. The campground is hidden back in this awesome old-growth pacific northwest rain forest-like area with picturesque moss and gigantic trees everywhere. There is a huge communal fire pit near the parking lot for campers to enjoy. There are also bathrooms and, I believe showers, if I remember correctly, on site. Now the surf shop. This is not some freaking commercial, mall-type Billabong, or chain boardwalk surf shop. This is a lets-get-you-on-the-waves kind of surf shop. It has what you NEED and nothing else. If you are a surfer with your own board, then they have you covered with things you might need like wax, fins, and a wet suit if you don't have your own. If you are a surfer w/o a board, because, for example, you are like me and your mode of transport didn't allow for it, then they also have you covered. Why? Because, these guys have some of the most competitive surfboard rentals in the Tofino-Ucluelet area. Pair that with the discount you get if you are camping here and this place is prime. We had been staying at some crap resort (McKenzie Beach Resort) up near Tofino where people were packed in like sardines with campsites on the freaking road. We bounced and moved here. Good move. This place is super laid back and has awesome staff manning the surf shop (a family and friends operation from what I can tell). I'm originally from the Midwest and learned to surf on one of the Great Lakes (Lake Superior). Why is this relevant you ask? Well, they had "Surf's Up" on every morning in the Surf Shop and you could go in, grab a cup of Joe, catch the surf forecast for the day, and watch Chicken Joe (home break: "The Elbow" Sheboygan, Lake Michigan) get barrelled on the TV. One of the coolest places I was on my whole two-month trip.

The lounge atmosphere was nice though with a great view, couches to chillax on, an art gallery connected to it for you to explore, etc. Servers brought the drinks and food to our table when ready as it could take a while. They have a door at the back connected to the beach that you can walk right out to.

AKA: The Market Cafe…read more Upon entering Bamfield you quickly realize that your food options have become pretty limited. However, this little cafe, located right beside The Market, Bamfield's general store, is the perfect little reprieve for those that hunger for a good meal before an epic adventure or just returning from one. You won't be blown away by mind altering flourishes of culinary wizardry, but you will be presented with wonderfully large portions and deliciously prepared meals. Seating is plentiful and the serving staff (consisting of just one waitress) is very friendly and welcoming. You may need to flag her down if the place gets a little hectic, but she is quick to come over and help you with what you need. We came here for both breakfast and lunch and in both instances the food here left me satisfied and well fed. For lunch, their seafood chowder was quiet good, with good portions of fish and shrimp. My favourite though was their Bammer-time breakfast: hash browns, choice of sausage/bacon/ham, eggs any way you want them, avocados, and hollandaise sauce - all in one bowl. Whoa. It was definitely Bammer-time. And yes, the bowl was totally bigger than my head. Bonus: The cafe and the general store share the same wifi, which is free!

On a Thursday afternoon, with lots of Pacific Coast Trail hikers waiting for the bus, the only game…read morein town was the Bamfield Market Café. The nearby Bamfield Pub was either closed or out of business. The outdoor deck with tables is a nice shaded place to eat, so we decided to give it a go. Turns out both the menu and the ordering of food items happens not at your table, but at the cashier of the Market which is at the same store-front but a different and seemingly unassociated entrance - confusing at first, but manageable. We ordered a BLTC (what's that? a Bacon Lettuce & Tomato sandwich with a slice of American cheese) and a grilled ham & cheese. Both sandwiches were prepared promptly and served with fries - the sandwiches were edible but nothing special - I removed the slice of American cheese from mine - while common in these parts, it's not a plus. The fries were pretty standard, and offered with gravy or ketchup -- we took the ketchup packets and had to squeeze a lot of them out to get that working. So, do I recommend this restaurant? If you're hungry, they serve food, and they are your only restaurant option at lunchtime (at least when we were in town). So yes, I'd go again. Would I recommend the food? Not really -- nothing wrong with it, but C$ 35.70 for two sandwiches and fries was a bit pricey for such marginal quality. On the other hand, they are remote, so one can be glad that they offer anything at all. The other half of the operation (the Market part) is tiny with very limited selection, but they do offer many of the things Pacific Coast Trail hikers need. So while your options are limited, what they have should get you through (including some good ice-cream bars).

All of our drinks were good and well balanced, but some of them needed a touch more sugar. The rose latte wasn't too overpowering. Both the salmon and halloumi bagels were absolutely delicious and had a lot of filling, but the halloumi was my favorite of the two. The bagels themselves were amazing. They were soft and chewy. The bagels are pretty pricey, but worth it to try at least once. One down side, is that they have limited hours due to staffing. We tried coming here one day, but found out they were closed for an event. I am glad that we had time to come back the following day before we had to leave. 4.5 stars

Though normally me and my friend go for breakfast, we decided try out the relatively new dinner menu revamp. I had the Barrier Reef Melt with the Clam Chowder as a side. Starting with the Clam Chowder, I unfortunately can't recommend this dish. It tasted too similarly to Campbells Chunky Clam Chowder. It was mostly a potato chowder with the small amount of clams it had. The clams in there weirdly tasted slightly like ham lol. It was only an extra $1.50 to add onto my main and even though it wasn't my favorite, that's a very reasonable add-on price. As for the Barrier Reef Melt, I did enjoy it. Although a slight warning, it is quite small, so this dish would be better suited if your looking for something lighter (Though it is quite rich). Oh and its not a sandwich, it's one piece of ciabatta bread open faced, cut in two. It is under the "Sanga" section in the menu so I'm sure this is a common mistake. At $21.50 ($23 with the chowder) for this plate, I do think it is a bit much for the portion size, but not an unheard of price for a seafood based dish. Overall Boomerangs is a great spot for breakfast or brunch, especially if your on your way down to the West Coast. It is not just Australian themed in name but also has Outback decor around the whole restaurant. Even though I wasn't wowed by my dinner, they have a big menu and I'm sure I'll be back to try more.
