You really feel like one of the gang when you visit Hey Happy. They have daily specials for coffee by the cup and feature espressos. With beans from all over the world there are so many options to choose from. The guys who run the place also have home brewing workshops every once in awhile so you can learn how to make their yummy coffee at home.

A never-fail place to grab a beer, unwind, and meet up with friends. There are 40 beers on tap and they are Victoria's only bar to have self-pour towers of beer. They also have great pub style food(lunch, dinner, or appetizers), house wine, and a wonderful array of cocktails.

You would think that Earl’s is just another franchise restaurant which you can find anywhere in BC or even USA but in a small city like Victoria, Earl’s is not like the other branches. Every branch is different and what makes the Victoria branch special is their crew. The staff is friendly and hospitable locals with "I love what I do" service.

This place is a "Cenote" indeed, refreshing drinks from underground. If you want to chill with friends and escape the loud bars and party tourists then this is the perfect place. Good atmosphere with DJ and definitely frequented by locals.

Known for Mahoney, their surprise signature dish. When you order it you will have no idea what to expect because the chefs make whatever they feel like. You decide if you want lunch or breakfast and they cook something up for you. You can flip a coin at the end of your Mahoney and take a chance to get free breakfast... or pay double if you lose.

This coffee shop and bakery is accessible from downtown through a 20-minute walk over the Johnson Street Bridge and along a pedestrian in an up-and-coming Eco-district called Dockside Green. Locals who live in the district, and nearby Vic West stop here while walking their dog or cycling along a scenic car-free paved trail.

On a Wednesday morning there may be a 10min wait but it is so worth it. The food is excellent and the coffee is amazing. The restaurant is decked-out in rustic decor and it is always bustling with people. The service is excellent and you are never waiting too long for food.

This is definitely a splurge -but you will feel pampered and decadent without being overly full or angry at yourself the next day. Very minimalist decor, great choices, popular with 20-something hipsters, their parents and aunts and uncles. Ie, mixed ages but definitely hipsterish without seeming pretentious.

The bread is delicious and you can watch it being made when you go in. No inside seating, but you can eat it on a bench outside the store on a sunny day. My husband loves their "breakfast in bed" danish with ham and egg.

You will need a car to get here – but once you're through the suburbs, the scenery is fantastic -getting there and at Merridale. I have to say that it's equally popular with tourists and locals, but in winter appeals to locals with special event tastings and dinners at its bistro. Some include van shuttle to &fm Victoria.
