Grindstone Cafe - Victoria

My favourite cafe in this area. The tortilla soup is fantastic, and the carrot cake is the best I've tasted by far. The staff are friendly and easy going. A nice little Victoria Gem... well worth a stop rain or shine <br/

I would give this restaurant a 4.0 rating for serving the best carrot cake I've had in a long time. The cake was moist and the cream cheese frosting was delicious. The rest of the food was okay. A friend tried the Thai salad and loved it. The tea served is Silk Road Tea, which can be enjoyed hot or iced. I did not try the coffee, but they do offer a regular menu of specialty coffees and lattes. The seating is limited, as the counter and prep area take up most of the space, but there are tables and chairs outside as well.

Stopped in for a quick late morning breakfast and had the breakfast sandwich with some green tea. The sandwich was delicious with the avocado, bacon and egg toasted together on a ciabatta bun. Yum! Laid back and friendly service. Give it a try!

I work next door, and I eat lunch there EVERY day. This place is rad! Hit up the carrot cake or the corn bread if your lucky enough to snag a piece!

The food here is among the best in Victoria. Flawless service to go with there fresh and amazing menu. Coffee that is on par with some of the more upscale coffee joints in town to boot.
