The ice cream shop was open next door and connected for seating but idk if that is a constant or just an occasional thing. Not a ton of orderable food options but lots of packaged ready-to-go items and a few bakery goods. I got a raspberry cheesecake fir around $6 and enjoyed throughly. Water in reusable cups was provided, everything seemed to be reusable or compostable aside from saran wrap which is a nice touch and always appreciated. Nice to pop into and look around at the local goods (lake cowichan milk and Shanti chai for example sold here).

Perfect Small Town Bakery [Chemainus BC]…read more The community of Chemainus has this great little bakery. It was a 12-min drive from where we were staying in Crofton. We came here twice -- Sunday (unfortunately, they are closed on weekends). Business hours posted on their window are Mon-Fri 7:00a to 5:00p so we came back on a Tuesday afternoon. The different pastries in the display case looked so pretty and inviting... they even have egg rolls! I tried their Coffee Cake w/ Crumble Topping... not too sweet, just delightful. I also had the Apple Fritter... mmm, scrumptious warm apple fritter. I also bought a loaf of butter crust bread to take home (husband looked at me funny). Service was A+. Seating available inside and outside their store for those who enjoy sunshine. Delicious pastries at very reasonable prices. Even better deal when I saw the conversion from CAD to USD on my bank statement. My loaf of bread was a little over $2 USD. Review #3156

I was disappointed in the apple fritter, as there was no apple in it. The coffee was pretty bad.read more

Each pastry was great but the highlight was the berry cheese danish. We also really liked how the apple danish wasn't extremely sweet and the texture of the carrot cake muffin. The bakery also has coffee and pizza available, but we didn't try any of that. Seating wise, there's both indoor and outdoor seating available for guests and water on tap. The ordering process was smooth but we sat, bussed, and served ourself which was fine.

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.

A must-stop spot for anyone visiting Nanaimo! You can't go to Nanaimo without trying a classic…read moreNanaimo bar, and Red's Bakery is the perfect place to grab this iconic treat. We also picked up the banana cheesecake, and it was packed with banana flavour. It was definitely a great choice for banana lovers. Everything is ready to go and nicely packed, making it super convenient for a quick dessert stop. Service was fast and friendly. The bakery has a few tables inside, but if they are full, you can enjoy your treats outside or head across the street to the Vancouver Island Regional Library, where there are benches that make a nice little dessert break spot. A simple, convenient, and delicious stop to experience a true Nanaimo classic!

We had the 7 of the 10 dishes of the Ala carte menu ! and given what we had - very good value ! Each dish was unique, creative and delicious and Perfectly cooked fish ! Hard to choose but Our favourite was the beautiful snap pea dish with the amazing sauce. Only one wish - if there had been a side basket of a crusty baguette slices to mop up all the fantastic sauces ! Wonderful and timely service too - from accommodating our reservation time to offering an extra dish that was some result of an order error. All the servers were delightful and Chloe did a lovely job on her first day. Thank you for a wonderful meal!

But watch out for the self important, stern and nasty employee at Lilette who acts like she owns the place. She will dress you down for "staying too long" although a time limit is not stated. We were there two hours. Even though we spent considerable money on pastry, bread, coffee, tea and full lunches she went on and on furiously repeating her tyrad. This is the second time she has done this to us. We are mature, respectful, regular patrons of Lilette who live in Qualicum. She is a casting a dark cloud in a beautiful space.
