Discovery Coffee: Reviews & Ratings
Corner coffee shop where the staff are always friendly and greet you when you come in. Coffee is reasonably priced. And they spin vintage vinyl. This is an active, busy location where FaceTime is headphone free. So be prepared for the coffee shop buzz. Frequented by locals and travellers. Recommend.
Conversation overheard today: A: "I know our water dispenser is really slow, I can fill your bottle up in the back." B: "it's okay, it's a good lesson in patience." Yes the water dispenser is incredibly slow, but it's still the best cafe in Oak Bay. Image shows how far my patience got me
What a truly lovely picture experience. The place is chill and sunny. The staff are friendly and charming. The barista made me a beautiful delicious cappuccino with a whimsical milk pattern! Does it get any better then this. I don’t think so. Thank you for making my visit to Victoria a joy
Love the new location. Lots of seating inside and outside. I didn't have anything to eat but the other people at my table did and their doughnuts and muffins looked delicious. I enjoyed my mocha.
Must try hot chocolate. Various breakfast options both savoury and sweet. Different specialty teas available.
Favorite coffee shop in Victoria by far. Always have amazing coffee. Their iced mochas are absolutely to die for. They sell the local yonni’s donuts which always sell out fast so get there early.
I love Discovery coffee and will recommend them to everyone. All the locations are unique and pleasant. This one needs some TLC though. The toilet was running in the washroom, the coffee plant in the window was very wilted and needs some love and the water filling station water trickles out so slowly, the filter most likely needs a change. Again, I’d still recommend coming here. The donuts are amazing and I love the coffee.
The guy was super nice even though I didn't know what I was doing. First time going to Discovery Coffee and it was excellent, great service, great coffee. Love the covid precautions they've got going on! I'll definitely be making this a regular shop from now on.
