Always fantastic food and friendly service! Online stuff needs work though - online ordering perpetually says "coming soon" and the website menu is often out of date. But I'll give them a pass for that because the ability to go to a restaurant as a celiac and safely order anything I want off the menu is so fantastically wonderful I can't take a star off for such a small oversight.

Stopped by because of the claim of having gluten free breakfast ood items.
We were there right when they opened, one of 2 tables and then boom the place was packed with customers. And we could see why: Excellent tasting food and we found the portion size was just right- my partner is a big eater and he was pleasantly stuffed. You do pay a bit more but the food was of excellent quality and prepared very well.
Coffee was done expertly.
It is cafeteria style- go to the counter to put in your order and then your food is quickly delivered to your table.
The place has a great vibe: reclaimed wood furniture, repurchased burlap coffee bags as upholstery and local artist art on the wall. Very inviting: small patio outside the Cafe on the street: great for people watching.
Definitely will return if we are in the area again. My partner couldn't stop raving about the place when we discussed our experience to the friends we were visiting.

Out of the three places I’ve tried in Nanaimo this might be my favorite Nanaimo bar. It’s thinner, which means each bite had more balanced ratio of chocolate, cream, and crust. The crust has a nice mix of nuts and is perfectly crunchy (I believe it’s gluten free). The cream layer is not too sweet and overpowering either. Overall a delightful treat with iced coffee! My companion had a bagel sandwich which was delicious as well. Loved this cute little cafe.

Gorgeous food!
Many gluten free and Vegan options. We chose two savory, and two sweet. And they were so big we took some home.
Friendly staff... and they didn't even mind that we only had water. I would love to try a coffee or tea flight next time. They look amazing.

Some family and I gathered here for lunch on Thanksgiving Day. Azra was so friendly to us, and didn't rush us out when we were finished. We all enjoyed our meals. I have Celiac disease and had a quite a few options (including fries!). We had a really great time!
Exceptional service and a warm vibe make this spot a must-visit, with delightful surprises and thoughtful touches throughout your experience.

We had an exceptional dining experience, thanks largely to Lexus, who truly went above and beyond. When she heard that one of our party members had recently developed a gluten intolerance, she immediately offered thoughtful menu suggestions and even brought out peppermint tea, just in case it was needed.
The food itself was phenomenal, the ambience was warm and inviting, and the prices were pleasantly surprising. Even when one of our friends received pickles on her burger after requesting none, Lexus graciously provided a generous discount to make it right.
Her level of care and dedication was extraordinary—if six stars were possible, she would certainly earn them! ⭐️

First time going and we were super happy. We did a quick search of best breakfast places and it was top of the list. They have vegan, gluten free options which is really nice. My husband ordered a Hash, it was loaded with veggies and bacon. I had the veggie eggs Benny. So yummy. We had great service by a lovely young lady. Super polite and kind. We will be back
Forgot to mention a really great cold brew.
