Guidebook for Victoria
Food Scene
Simply the best coffee in Victoria. If you enjoy the modern West Coast roasting techniques, you will love the Bows & Arrows coffee they serve here. There are two locations: one on the corner of Yates and Burrard and one on Pandora. The one on Pandora is much more cozy and comfortable
