The Most Charming Breakfast Place in Courtenay…read more I believe whoever was in charge of this location's look and feel was at least partially inspired by Hobbit architecture. It was delightful dining here and the food was pretty good too! My wife ordered the Two Poached Eggs with Whole Wheat Toast & Jelly breakfast, while I created my own sandwich (Montreal Smoked Meat on an Onion Roll with lettuce, tomato, and avocado). I also got a cup of their soup of the day (Cream of Butternut Squash). Everything was delicious. Service was prompt and friendly. And we got to experience what eating breakfast for Frodo & Bilbo Baggins must've been like. Highly recommend if you're in Courtenay and want to get away from the typical run-of-the-mill diner or cafe experience for breakfast.

My sister had the veggie burger and my nephew some of the housemade (equally delicious) granola. The food is always yummy but I'm usually here for the exceptional customer service and interesting people i meet, they didn't disappoint. Chatted with Ben today, super friendly even had some chapstick made on the farm for me to try! It's super nice so make sure you grab one when you pay. Took a cinnamon bun for the road, you should too!!!

It was a cold and dry winter evening in Feb. Something warm and soupy would be nice. Vietnamese pho…read morewas a great choice. The restaurant was very cozy with approximately capacity of 20. The young server greeted me and seated me very quickly. About half of the restaurant was occupied with a family birthday party. The adults and the kids wee enjoying themselves. It's a family friendly place. I ordered: - Special beef pho (P1) which has a little of rare beef slices, flank and meat balls. - Deep fried chicken wings and drumsticks - Prawn salad rolls (takeout) The soup of the pho was good. While I thought it would be rare beef slices, the beef was all cooked. I thought maybe the soup was too hot? Maybe the beef was cooked by the soup on the way they served from the kitchen to the dining room? I was too hungry to raise a question. The beef was OK, not tender. I appreciated the flank and the meat balls. It would be better if they can add one to two other toppings. It's a special noodle. Other Vietnamese places tend to have 4 to 5 tops. They served bean sprouts, a quarter of key lime and a little basil leaves on the side. The pho noodles were cooked perfectly. They have medium and large sizes. The large size had a reasonable portion of noodles for its size. The deep fried chicken wings is something I highly recommend. They probably used fish sauce and honey or sugar as the coating sauce. It was very apetitizing. It also had a bit of spicy kick. The Prawn salad rolls were saved for later. They go well with their homemade peanut sauce. The prawn and the veggies inside were fresh. The chef was a young Asian guy. I think they have room for improvement on sourcing ingredients. The location is convenient. Free 2-hour street parking is available. They are open everyday except Sunday.

If this is the best pho in Courtenay like every one claims, you shouldn't eat pho in Courtenay…read more I had the Pho Bac Diet. Rare beef slice, flank, meatball, and instead of noodles I got veggies. The service was great, and the food came fast, but the pho itself wasn't that good. The broth is so bland and doesn't have any real flavour to it. It needed salt even. I've never had to add salt to a pho before. Because of the lack of flavor, all the meat was bland and tasted off, because it didn't absorb any of the broth flavors. Not that it really could have, because when it came to me it was all fully cooked. The old chilli paste and hoisin added a little flavor, but it wasn't enough. Super limited menu as well. If you're menu is this small you better do it right. Who doesn't have tendon or fatty beef? Last time I eat pho in Courtenay apparently.
