Unfortunately we had a really bad experience at this pub. I was taking my fiance out for a date and he was very excited to have fish and chips again (Gluten Free.). I will say the perogies were very good, it was two big perogies in one order - not the best quantity but the flavour was very good. I ordered the mushroom gnocchi and my fiance ordered the two piece fish and chips.
The first thing that was off was the waiter brought food to the table beside us but as he was putting their food down he quickly took the plates back around the corner and brushed something off the plate. Then came back and one of the ladies he was serving asked what that was all about, he dodged the question and left. It set an odd tone right away.
After a while, our waiter returned to tell me he "couldn't sell me the mushroom gnocchi" he wasn't being direct and avoided telling me why so I ordered the mac n cheese. He wasn't sure if I could have that either so went to check. It was such a weird vibe around the whole situation and a little unsettling.
Anyways, when he brought out our order, his thumb dipped into my mac n cheese. He left and then came running back to tell me he gave me the lobster mac n cheese not then regular. he asked me if I had eaten it yet and was relieved when i said no.. I assume he was going to bring it to someone else? I finally got the mac n cheese and he said to be careful, the skillet is very hot, it wasn't, i literally picked it up to take it off the serving plate because it had a bunch of greasy finger prints on it.
The food was sadly not good at all. The fish and chips had next to no fish, it was just super thick batter. The mac n cheese barely had a flavour and had glazed over from sitting out. It was an extremely disappointing experience.
To wrap this up, the table behind us had to return their food because there was "A shard of glass" in it.
The server comped our meals and we left very unsatisfied. I know people have off days but man was everything going wrong that evening.
I am sad to say we will never return or recommend this place.
Enjoy a vibrant waterfront experience with a varied seafood menu, quick service, and cozy outdoor seating perfect for all weather!

First time at the fish store and tried the gluten free halibut. Staff were very knowledgeable and asked if this was Celiacs.
Lots of choices on menu and fish and fries turned out very tasty!
A hidden gem with inventive plant-based dishes, a chic vibe, and seasonal creations that promise a delightful culinary experience.

No MSG No Garlic Foodie
We decided to visit Victoria after finding several restaurants offering vegan food. Since Be Love is dedicated vegan and also gluten free, it was my first choice. However, there wasn't that many items on the menu to my taste, but since they promise seasonal items, I had hoped that there would be some pleasant surprises. The rest of my party decided to order organic red and white wines by the glass. I chose Earthblood Tonic juice made with carrot, beet, celery, kale and ginger. It was very refreshing and looked stunning. The Mac Bowl appealed to me because it claimed to have braising greens, seasonal vegetable, and broccoli. I was warned that the sauce contains garlic, but I took a chance hoping that it would be black garlic rather than fresh garlic. Fortunately, the garlic was hardly noticeable and I was not affected. It was a very rich dish and I loved the creamy taste of the sauce. The roasted hazel nuts were strange and tasted as though the vegetables still had soil/sand/grit. I was disappointed with the scant amount of greens and vegetables, and if I had known, I might have asked for extra vegetables. And of course, I could not finish it the macaroni. If it wasn't for the 'gritty texture' I would have rated this four stars. My friends ordered the daily special gluten free ravioli with nettle. They all loved it. We also shared a platter with flatbread, cashew cream cheese, apple & beet chutney. I was only able to have one item because the rest were heavy with garlic.
Enjoy a warm, inviting atmosphere with expertly crafted dishes that delight all taste buds, making it a must-visit hidden gem.

I haven’t had an ice cream sandwich since going gluten free about a decade ago so when I heard this place had GF ice cream sandwiches on TikTok I bookmarked it. Thankfully we had a chance to order delivery from here on our recent trip to Victoria and it did not disappoint.
The flavors were not typical but they were quite enjoyable. The texture of the cookie was also superb. No telltale cardboardy-ness that GF cookies can sometimes get.
Definitely worth a visit - especially if someone in your party is gluten-free.
A charming spot with a creative twist on brunch, offering unique drinks and fresh, farm-to-table options that'll keep you coming back for more.

This place is unreal! One of the best breakfasts of my life. Begging for y’all to open a location in LA. Objectively delicious breakfast. Plus perfect for my gluten and dairy free needs. I’m still thinking about that hollandaise. Kind staff. Good vibes. Went back the next day it was so good. If I lived in Victoria I would eat here once a week at least. Wish I could give more stars. NEVER CLOSE I BEG.

Fantastic place to have brunch!
Being Celiac, there are often challenges with the menus, but here at Johns Place they accommodate for this. I had “Catch 22” which was half eggs benny (GF hollandaise) on a GF bun, and GF waffle.
It was excelllent and so was the coffee!!
Thank you so much for providing these options!!

Purchased a carrot cake muffin. Hubby says it's delicious work lots of nuts. Cream cheese icing.
Purchased a rectangle piece of gluten-free pizza. About 6" by 5" for about $5. It was very delicious with a little bit of spiciness. The crust was made with rice flour, and was quite heavy with oil.
Burgers shine here with tasty options and a unique condiment stand, but the cramped layout could use a little more breathing room.

I really like their poutine. Delicious & gluten free, The portion size for the price is a little small. $10
The gravy is really good.
Depending on the burger that you get, taste pretty good, burger patty is decent size.
I think it's strange that you order a burger without getting the fries included in the price.
If you're ordering a $14 burger you have to pay extra for fries. (As far as aware they don't do combos, could be wrong though)
Atmosphere is a little lacking. It's very store-house warehouse feels, poor layout. When you go in the door to order, and a person has to turn around and zigzag through people to get out the door that can be very poor concept.
Space constraints. Even staff look cramped.
Has a nice condiment stand. Great bathrooms, clean.
Enjoy a vibrant atmosphere with stunning waterfront views, making it a perfect hangout for friends or a nice treat.

Mum was so happy to be so well taken care. Thank you for the exceptional service.
They have a special deep fryers to accommodate people who are celiac and willing to adjust a dish to suit my mums food challenges.

Green Cuisine is a Victoria gem. My friends and I regularly order take away and sometimes eat in. The food is always hearty, tasty and great value for money. If we ever have visitors, I tell them to check out Green Cuisine. No one has ever told me they weren't impressed with the food on offer, the prices or the wonderful desserts. As a person with Gluten sensitivities, this place gives me so many options. LOVE IT! Can't recommend this place enough. Long may it continue to provide Victoria with affordable, yummy, no nonsense food.

A very small bakery with a large wood fired oven with which they make a variety of delicious baked goods. Some goods are gluten and other ingredients free. I only left out an "Atmosphere" rating because it is simply a small counter to purchase goods. There is no place to sit.

Great celiac safe barbecue place! Everything is GF except waffles and regular buns, but they take precautions to keep celiac customers safe (changing gloves, etc). They have fantastic fried chicken which is GF, fried only with fries (also GF), and the regular bbq things. Great sandwiches, poutine, and fried chicken!

This place is one of the best restaurants we've been to in a while. Everything we had was fantastic: Beef tenderloin carpaccio, smoked chicken penne, pan seared miso halibut, blackened creole chicken.
My wife has celiac and they have a lot of options. The gluten free penne was probably the best GF pasta she has tried.
We also had a few cocktails and they were all well made. Earl Grey Martini was a stand out for me.
Our server was very nice and accommodating as well and service was very fast.

Amazing food, very friendly and accommodating service, and the vibe is incredible - especially when the band is in the house.I don't know what they put into the focaccia bread, but if go there and pay full pop for the bread alone. It's like pastry - a little crisp on the outside, delightfully fluffy inside, and the dusting of salt flakes...magic.
When I say the food is amazing, I mean the food is AMAZING (the 'Sophia' is as tantalizingly delicious as its namesake).
Extra points for the gluten free pasta option!

We had the most incredible experience at Il Covo Trattoria in Victoria for a joint celebration of Mother’s Day and my 22nd birthday, made all the more memorable thanks to our amazing server, Willis. From start to finish, Willis went above and beyond to make our evening feel special and personal.
He surprised us with a complimentary drink and a delicious birthday dessert on the house, which was such a thoughtful gesture. His charming personality, genuine compliments, and fantastic menu knowledge made us feel completely at ease and well taken care of. Every recommendation he made was spot-on — from cocktails to mains to dessert.
Not only was the service 10/10, but the food and drinks were phenomenal. The team also did an excellent job accommodating gluten-free options, which we deeply appreciated.
Willis truly elevated our celebration and gave us a night we won’t forget. Thank you for making it so special. Highly recommend and would return in a heartbeat.
Expect a delicious experience with massive wings and creative pizzas that the whole family will rave about.

The pizza is awesome, and really great late night. Gluten free is good too with a tasty crust! Cross contamination can be a thing if you're celiac so heads up. Its so good that its often very busy which means orders can take a while and we now go and pickup because delivery was always taking too long. We still keep going back though cuz its 👌 super tasty.
