Joie French Cafe - Victoria

Nice French cafe off of Cook Street. Service an attentive and food was great.

Went for the first time today. Had a delicious Americano to start off the meal. Ordered the sandwich and I am still full hours later. It was extremely rich and tasty- exactly what you would expect from a French cafe. Will definitely be going back to try the savoury crepes.

Best restaurant in Victoria, to be honest. (Although I haven’t visited their dinner restaurant yet. I go here almost every week, so I decided I should finally make a review. The heart of this place is the delicious selection of CRÊPES. I especially love the savoury crepes. They’re filled with different kinds of melted cheeses, with protein (bacon, fried eggs, ham, smoked salmon, scallops, prawns, etc. on top, and often a sauce of some kind as well. My favourites are the Lorraine (bacon and eggs on top with cream cheese inside , the saumon fumé (cream cheese inside with smoked salmon, lemon, and truffle oil on top , and the mira-mar (Swiss cheese inside and scallops and prawns on top . If you order one of these and don’t like it, you must be crazy. The sweet crepes are also amazing! This place also has the most delicious iced tea I’ve ever tasted, with a very unique and interesting flavour. The staff are very kind as well. I could write much more, but yeah, I really love this place. I’m very lucky to live just across the street.

Idk what the reviewer below me meant about the crepes being 'too thick ', they 're very thin and folded together so that there are layers, which is

The most ADORABLE cafe ever! It has regulars, the staff is so sweet and courteous, and the food and drinks are phenomenal. My partner and I were able to play bananagrams while eating crepes and sipping on a delicious mocha. Highly recommend you stop by for a pleasant visit while in Victoria.
