Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Sooke

"The scene: Self-described as ‘slightly finer dining inspired by land and sea’, 10 Acres Kitchen goes back to basics in the best way possible. Whatever the kitchen team doesn’t grow and ethically raise themselves on their organic farm in North Saanich, they selectively source from like-minded farmers, fishermen and food purveyors as locally as possible. Their regionally-inspired Pacific West Coast menus headline the freshest and most innovative ingredients available, guaranteeing you bursts of incredible flavour with every mouthful."

"10 Acres Kitchen in Victoria is one of three restaurants that are run by the 10 Acres Farm and Restaurant Group that provide ethically raised animals from their farms to these restaurants. It’s steps from the Inner Harbour of Victoria and is housed inside a meticulously restored heritage building. The historic restaurant has a custom-built wood bar, large windows, plush booth seating, and black and white photo art that add to its elegant ambience."

"This fully enclosed terrace is the perfect place to grab a bite or sip an after dinner drink. "We pledge to serve the best of the Island. What we don’t grow and ethically raise on our own 10 acre farm, we proudly source from other like minded farmers + food purveyors. We compost everything we can from the restaurant to enrich our farm’s soil. Last year we created 60 tonnes of compost!" 10 Acres Bistro"

"Blue Fox Cafe is one of the most popular brunch spots in Victoria, as evidenced by the lineup that usually stretches down the street. The restaurant, located on Fort Street , specializes in unique all-day breakfast options. The café’s standout items include a variety of fruity pancakes and French toast."

"A post shared by Blue Fox Cafe (@blue_fox_cafe) on Dec 21, 2018 at 12:14pm PST. Their website says it all, “Victoria’s first and foremost all-day breakfast since 1991. We started this shizzle!"

"Along the long shoreline of Sidney, this 2.5 km (1.5 mi) ‘Heart Smart Walk’ offers both locals and tourists a chance to explore the piers, jetties, parks, playgrounds, cafes, bars, restaurants, and distilleries around which offers panoramic views of the Gulf Islands and Salish Sea. This park is solely dedicated to the walkers and is where they can either walk their bike or opt for a faster activity through skating or skateboarding. As you stroll around this beautiful park, learn a bit of history regarding US and Canada territorial conflicts and their peaceful resolutions."

"Along with the outstanding menu, which offers choices for vegetarians, adventurers, and traditional meat-eaters, there are kid specific meals complete with milk and a cookie. I always feel good knowing about the environmental practices and local support that Big Wheel exhibit, not to mention, the staff has always been phenomenal, the service is speedy, and the atmosphere is fun and diner-esque. If the weather is nice we usually order to go and take our food down to beach or park at the end of Cook St. If it’s a bit rainy, we like staying inside at the diner like booths to enjoy our meals."

"Although it's a chain restaurant, Red Robin is a Victoria staple if you grew up in the area. Having my birthday dinner there as a kid is still engrained in my memories!. There's no denying they have one of the largest and most diverse kid menus around, from their famous Cluck-A-Doodles (chicken strips) to pizza, fish sticks, pasta, corn dogs, burgers, grilled cheese, it goes on."

"They are open late from Tuesday to Saturday and are readily reachable by car. This is such a great little restaurant. Fun atmosphere inside."

"The fried, battered cauliflower wings tossed in maple sriracha at Very Good Butchers might be the single tastiest vegetarian appetizer I had in 2019. Washing down my Very Good Burger – featuring a spicy, BBQ-flavoured bean patty – with peach mint kombucha made this a lunch to remember. You can also devour a seitan bacon (made with gluten) and deli fowl (chicken flavour without actual chicken) charcuterie board at this hotspot in the bustling Victoria Public Market on Douglas Street."

"With so many reasons to go vegan — from environmental to ending cruelty to animals – many people are choosing a plant-based diet. Vegan butcher shops are like rare gems waiting to be found in select urban centres around the world. Lucky for me, we have the Very Good Butchers  take-out counter right downtown, located in the Victoria Public Market."

"Making their own excellent plant-based 'meats', The Very Good Butchers are definitely worth a visit. Despite the name, everything is vegan. You can buy burgers and sausages from their store counter, or stop by their restaurant for a BLT or burger."

"A taste of East Africa located in Esquimalt; Blue Nile offers plenty of flavourful vegan dishes and meat dishes alike.
