We had creamy herbed mushroom soup, and a grilled veggie quesidilla, soup was great, quesadilla was stellar. Many items are available to go in the self serv cold cases and the pastry case was tempting. Really enjoyed our visit. .

Amazing scone, got us thinking we gotta try baking some ourselves, and the curry meat pie was very flavorful. We are also taking leftover mango chutney home it's that good. Oh yes lattes also great in fun big cups, and friendly staff. We sat in the couch by the big window so we could watch parents and kiddos walking to school. A great hip cafe in Duncan, who knew :)

Not a bad little place to stop at if you happen to be in downtown Duncan. I had a turkey spinach…read moresandwich and a cup of their medium roast coffee. The service was great, both girls were quite friendly and attentive. They heated up the sandwich for me on a panini press and it was tasty, it also came with tortilla chips on the side. The coffee they use is organic and fair trade and the brand is called, Spirit Bear. I believe that it is a local coffee roaster. The coffee was good but definitely nothing to write home about. Would I go back? Sure, if I happened to be in the area again killing time. At a friends house later on they brewed me a cup of coffee using beans from Drumroaster Coffee (another local coffee shop/roaster) and that was some of the best coffee I've ever had in my life. So maybe if you're in the area hit up Drumroaster instead.

We LOVE Hanks!!!…read more When we arrived just a little before 9am on a Saturday morning, there were about 10 people ahead of us and about another 5 waiting for their order. The place is truly a bakery haven! They have so much stuff, from croissants, quiches, pies, sandwiches, sausage rolls, cookies, breads, danishes, scones, cakes, etc! We found it so difficult to choose but went with their sausage rolls, quiche and latte. The staff were so friendly and wearing their beautiful warm smiles. We drove out to Mill Bay and had our breakfast by the water, it was magical with the sunshine. LOVED the sausage roll; so moist and flavourful. The pastry was so flaky and I'm not even kidding when I say I wanna go back again tomorrow!!! The quiche was also delicious. It had lots of potatoes and was very filling. Again, the pastry was delicious. The latte was also nutty and velvety! Such a beautiful experience! Parking was tight but we found one shortly after we arrived. Hanks have parking stalls reserved for its customers, so be sure to check and park at the right spot. It is free.

Not even any salt and pepper added, let alone some mayo and garnish or anything that could justify that price and taste good. I could have bought a whole loaf of bread and an avocado for cheaper. Yikes. the girls at the counter are sullen every time I interact with them and looked annoyed that I asked for S&P. Teach your staff some customer service skills and review your menu. You lost my business.

The bathrooms are clean (yay!) and the staff is pretty friendly. Especially the big guy. They alway ask my name (but I never tell them the truth, no one ever says it right anyway). Inevitably, there's always some loudmouth complaining about their life loud enough for everyone in the whole coffee shop to hear. I went there to write once, but couldn't concentrate and left. What can you do though?
