Drinks & Nightlife

Our "local" pub with a great range of local beers on tap and a nice south facing patio. Can be busy but not as touristy a spot as the Irish pubs downtown.

A wonderful vegetarian option...too busy on theatre nights but a perfect place any other time! Nice vibe and everything is really really good. The Green Bowl and Mac & Cheese are both personal favorites!

Simple, local, healthy food beautifully cooked and presented. Usually lots of vegetarian options. A great location and a nice walk from the loft around the harbour past the Gov't buildings. Brunch is excellent!

Fantastic Neapolitan style pizza cooked in the wood fired oven. This Cook St location is the original spot but there are a couple of other locations now too. Legit pie...we treat ourselves to a Quattro Formaggio whenever we don't feel like cooking!

We almost hate to recommend this one in case it gets too busy...but so far it remains a local favorite and is not overrun...best Italian food in town, pretty affordable, nice location.

Casual counter spot for inexpensive asian-inspired dishes....great curries, good (but sometimes spicy!) pad thai. The seating area is a bit noisy from traffic, but grab a takeout container and head to the water.

Sushi can be pretty hit or miss in Victoria for some reason...and some of the big joints right downtown I've heard bad reports on. But this little place in a strip mall in James Bay is the best we've found. Relaxed, friendly, good prices and "real crab" options on the California Rolls.

Just across the street...great lunch buffet for $13.95 with several vegetarian options and great naan bread. Our favorite dishes (vegetarian) are the Navratan Korma, Palak Paneer and especially the homemade veggie samosas!

An island classic. If you can't make it to the original taco bus in Tofino stop in here for excellent West coast Mexican. We're partial to Superveg burritos.

Parks & Nature

A beautiful walk through the landscaped ground of the Queen's Representative in BC. Rose gardens, herb gardens, duck pond with turtles, a beautiful ever changing rotation of flower beds. Don't miss the stroll through the trails in the preserved garry oak forest on the south side of the grounds!

For dog owners (or lovers) the area just west of Clover Point is an off leash dog area. You can follow steps down to the beach at several places all along Dallas Road as well...

Essentials

THE market on the Island. Saturdays from 10am til 2 starting in May. Food vendors, bakeries, live music, produce and crafts...a Victoria institution. Come to the area and walk to nearby Moss Rock Park for a beautiful view out over the water to the Olympic mountains.
