There was way too much to choose from, but, we forced ourselves... LOL! They even have a wrack od "day old" near the door, now that brings back memories from my childhood. Cookies, donuts, bread, quick breads... My husband's favorite is their blueberry pound cake. I had to take a bag of assorted items to try!

A great coffee shop for quick bites before your ferry or just to start your day on the island…read more The place is 10' away from the ferry terminal and open quite early for people with early ferry ride. Their breakfast sandwich is fresh and delicious and they also have a tons of island food goods. They are known for their coffee and they also sells the coffee beans there. They do have sitting both inside and outdoor and if you have a dog, you could sit with your dog in their patio. They also have a small goat farm there that you can go see. The goats are cute and nice. We will definitely come back when visiting the island again.

Holy Moly this place is amazing! Their breakfast sandwiches are top notch. They look like a typical…read moresandwich in the window but let me tell you, the flavors pack a punch! The spinach and whipped feta egg sandwich was mind-blowing. I scarfed it down before I got a photo. Went back a few days later and they had a different selection. Got the egg sandwich with prosciutto, mozzarella, and sun-dried tomato spread and it did not disappoint. Cute little shop to order to-go and friendly service- it's Canada, everyone is friendly eh.

Made a quick pit stop to The Roost Farm Bakery & Vineyard…read more Tasting is $5.00/person for four 1oz pours or $15.00 for 3oz pours. Fee is waived with a purchase of a wine bottle. At least you can pick which wines you want to try. Wine bottles are $16.00 to $30.00. - Tasting ($5.00) - big red rooster, petillant naturel, highland bramble and sweet ginger. Best of the four was the pet-nat. Ginger port was decent. Did not like the big red rooster or the highland bramble (unrefined, rough, needed to be airated). Seems the older folk come here for the bistro's sandwiches. Wouldn't go out of the way to visit.

This is the second time we stopped here for breakfast on our way from Victoria Island to Vancouver…read more We ordered breakfast then picked up some bakery items for the ferry ride and trip to Vancouver. It's a cute little restaurant/bakery/store before catching the ferry to or from Vancouver. The smashed baked potatoes are crispy and nicely seasoned. They had gf bread to accompany my eggs and bacon. At the bakery we purchased a couple gf cookies and a couple of regular ones. The lemon gf cookie was delicious ~ soft and lemony.

Great find in the cute little burg of Sidney. Fairly extensive selection of handmade pastries,…read morecookies and savory sandwiches. They even sell dog biscuits that are baked in-house. Everything looked tempting so we purchased a lot: a fig tapenade Brie sandwich (wonderful flavours, a little heavy on the bread and light on the cheese); a mango danish (delicate, crisp pastry strewn with baked mango chunks); a vegetarian pizza (cheesy and flavourful); and my favourite, an oatmeal fudge bar (like the one Starbucks used to sell, but with higher-quality ingredients and most importantly, more chocolate!). We also got a salad as a nod to nutrition, which was fresh, contained a surprising amount of bocconcini and came with a tasty vinaigrette - a little overpriced for the portion tho. Service was friendly and prompt. No seating inside, but there are a few benches outside where one can enjoy the treats if the weather's fine--and it was. 4.5

Whenever you're using Swartz Bay Ferry Terminal (10mins away from here) to catch a ferry back to…read morethe mainland, make sure you pop in. The Fickle Fig Express is a cute little bakery serving up some fabulous pastries, along with friendly service with a smile. Located on the central high street core of Sidney, make this bakery one not to miss. I was lucky they had anything left, getting here at 3pm. Cause you know how it is when it comes to bakeries - the early bird gets the worm. The Cinnamon Bun was very good & the Chocolate Almond Brownie - sensational.

And you didn't even enter the establishment so I'm giving a 5 star to try and bump the overall rating up. Food and service is great, I've been coming here with my family before I head to the ferries. I really enjoyed coming here in the summer when they played live music. The waffle fries are the best!

Am wondering what kind of message that sends to visitors from out of town. The split fee charged unless you get a salad and the fee is waived?? The third issue is the different lunch menu for over 8 people where they've taken some of the grill options out. The rationale given to us was they didn't want us using all of the grills ?? We came early for lunch (1130) and the place was by no means full. We use to go weekly but have dropped to once a month ( maybe)
