    Love it! Their patio is practically waterfront and elevated so it's a nice atmosphere. The portions are hearty, we had to take half of it home they were so big! The crepes were absolutely delicious and there's plenty of brunch options to choose from. I couldn't stop eating my daughter's Nutella crepe, would get that as a meal next time we're in the area! The prices are also very reasonable for the size of the meal. Would highly recommend, particularly if you like crepes. Thin, tasty and very well made. Will be back for sure

    Really great place to eat, a must if you're in the area. They have a great view on the patio overlooking the bay as well as indoor dining. The servers are very friendly, they take all the covid rules very seriously, a very pleasant dining experience. We were on vacation for the week and came here twice for brunch. Had the California benedict and shrimp omelette the first time. Second time tried the seafood crepes. They were all excellent!

    The food, service, and ambiance was first rate. Some of the best seafood I've had period, let alone on the island.

    We had a nice lunch here yesterday. This place is located in a hotel and overlooks the harbor…read more Lovely views that included boats and a bald eagle on the dock. The service was ok, not stellar, but certainly adequate. The food was pretty good. My husband had the fish tacos and loved them. I had the Katsu Chicken Bowl. The Bowl wasn't as good as the tacos. It was badly under seasoned. The chicken was quite dry and overcooked too. All in all it was quite bland. I wouldn't order this again. Our friends had the Miso Salmon and the Bison Spaghettini. Both of them enjoyed their food. If I return to Cowichan Bay I'd consider going again but skipping the Katsu Bowl.

    After reading several negative reviews about the service at The Cook & Butcher, I wasn't sure what…read moreto expect--but I'm so glad I gave it a chance. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the hostess, who was incredibly friendly and accommodating. I didn't have a reservation, but she still found a table for me without any issue. My waitress was absolutely amazing--attentive, welcoming, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. I ordered the clam chowder, the steak, and a cocktail called the Guava Fizz. Every bite (and sip!) was delicious. I'm honestly surprised by the poor service reviews, because my experience was fantastic from start to finish. If you've been hesitant to try this place because of what you've read, don't be--I had nothing but great service and great food. I'll definitely be back! The views are also amazing!

    Easily one of the most popular spots on Vancouver Island…read more The sun peaked out in January and everyone and their mom visited Shirley Delicious Cafe. To be honest, I completely understand why. This cafe is a step above the rest. The inside is cozy, with a cabin-esque vibe and clear ceilings in their dining room for an indoor-outdoor feel. Despite the line of 20+ people, Shirley Delicious worked like a well oiled machine. Their menu included breakfast, lunch, and even a flight of soup (which I so desperately wanted). I ordered their date pastry, a hot caramel latte, and breakfast sandwich with avo. Each item was absolutely delicious. This is also a great location to shop for island goodies. Their storefront is filled with jams, sauces, metal working artwork, etc. Can't believe they can pack so much goodness into four little walls!

    This was truly an amazing find! Tucked in the forest, this cafe is definitely delicious!…read more Definitely get here early as there could be a line out the door! We lucked out, thankfully. You order and pay first, then find a seat inside or outside. Ample seating options. For drinks, they'll call your name and you pick it up at the counter, while they will bring you your entrée. We came for breakfast, so I had a croissant BLT Harvati sandwich and a latte. My friend had a vegan wrap and a latte as well. The whole indoor feels like a greenhouse once before and transformed to indoor cafe. There are tons of metal welding artwork around and many little retail shopping corners inside. My croissant did not let me know, it was so delicious! They also have a small coffee/ice cream/grab-n-go trailer outside. Overall it's a nice place for breakfast or lunch! We tried coming back again, but the power went out so we weren't able to order anything AND have cash. Guess I'll have to come back to visit!
