Savary Island Pie Company

Gluten free buns are unreal

The best gluten free bun that 3 of us gluten free girls have ever had!! The BELT roll was unbelievable! Amazing coffee & matcha! Will absolutely be coming back

Waterfront bakery specializing in pie but also serving breakfast and lunch with a variety of baked goods. I visited a few times during my stay in Tofino. In general the food was great and the staff was friendly (one barista that I dealt with was not very enthusiastic but they seemed like they were just really tired). The setting is beautiful! There’s ample patio seating, and whether you sit inside or outside you get a beautiful view of the water. Curried cauliflower handpie: A fantastic savoury handpie with a flaky crust and a flavourful vegetarian filling. Some handpies are kind of flat with not a lot of filling but that was not the case here. It came with a mango chutney for dipping. Chocolate quinoa cake (GF): When I was choosing a dessert when I went here for lunch, I felt like I should get pie, but this cake looked so good and I did not regret trying it. Really fudgy and rich. Fantastic cake that definitely did not suffer from being made gluten free. If anything, the texture was better than a regular cake. Lemon buttermilk pie: This was the only thing I tried that I didn’t like. I wanted to try this one because it seemed unique, as I don’t think I’ve tried a custardy lemon pie before, but it was too sweet for me. The texture was lovely and the little pops of brightness from the berries were nice, but it was kind of hard to get through. Vegan breakfast cookie: Good but basic breakfast cookie with oats, seeds, and cranberries, held together by what tasted like peanut or maybe almond butter. I liked the texture - I’m not sure exactly what it was about it, but it tasted fresher than a lot of breakfast cookies I’ve tried. Chai latte: Good - I saw them making it, and they use a packaged but good chai concentrate, from Say When. It makes a strong, spicy chai latte that’s not too sweet. Tea: They have Mighty Leaf tea which I think is pretty good. I got the green dragon tea here.
