“ By the municipal and legislature librairies, tons of sitting particularly outside. It’s a very beautiful place to do your dreaming, as everywhere you look there’s something harmonious, geometrical and so much space to let your imagination expand. There’s also a lot of statues and architecture and sculptures and fountains to be inspired by. The coffeehouse has a large collection of sandwiches, coffees, the staff is lovely, it’s a place you feel welcome to stay. ”

“ Casual atmosphere, good coffee and tea. Beetroot Latte is one of my favorites. I wish there were more armchairs though - they are so comfortable. In summer, the patio outside is lovely. Love the fountain on the side of the cafe. The place has a really nice vibe. ”

“ Our barista attempted a request he obviously hadn't encountered previously. Did a great job to make a coffee milkshake with his resources which many before him have faltered on. Icecream would have given him the nod to perfect. Very happy overall. Nice attitude too. An amazing view across the forecourt to the surroundings. Architecturally impressive building. ”

“ Stumbled upon this coffee shop after traveling several hours to arrive in Victoria. Great location easily walkable from our hotel. The coffee is outstanding. A great coffee taste without being bitter. Great staff member who clearly understood the assignment to provide me with a cup of delicious coffee in the strength I like. ”

“ Amazing baked treats! And very friendly, helpful staff in a fresh and modern atmosphere. We highly recommend the coconut beet muffin, the twisted danishes, and the scones! Oh and of course the coffee ;) The historical community art in the plaza out front is also quite good. ”

“ It's the coolest Good Earth Cafe I've ever been to. Get a window seat facing North and you’ll have a great view of the parliament buildings. It's a wonderful place to sit, have a coffee, and watch the world go by. I had a coffee and a Chocolate Chipper cookie. Both were very good. I don't drink coffee that often but I’ve always liked the mild flavor of their medium roast drip coffee. I’ve frequented several Good Earth Cafes in Calgary Alberta and this one in Victoria has the same great service, ambiance, and food. I'm impressed with the consistency. I'm also impressed with the architecture. It's next level cool. The cafe looks like it's built into a hill. But it's actually an engineered hill. Two sides of the building are covered with dirt, or in other words...earth. Which means it ttruly lives up to the name “Good Earth Cafe.” There is a waterfall feature on one side of the cafe, lots of grass and greenery on the other two sides, plenty of seating on the outdoor patio, and a sod roof as well. The sod roof also has an observation deck where you can climb up to get a Bird's Eye view of the area. Great place for a photo shoot. This area of Victoria is the heart of the city and is quite stunning from a visual point of view because it has a wonderful blend of historic and modern architecture. And the cafe fits in perfectly with its ground breaking design. Definitely worth checking out, if you’re ever in the area. ”

“ This cafe’s setting and architecture is the saint of locations. The design is curiously perplexing but very liberal and proud. It rivals any building in the area and dominates fifty years of ambivalent designs. There’s a huge space outside with scattered tables—like nothing I’ve seen in the world. The space inside and out breathes like dense European cities could never ever offer. This is simply one of the free-est coffee experiences anyone can have. It’s an astounding jaw-dropping experience to see our parliament building standing opposite like the queen in a chess game, thwarted by cherry blossoms and capped in green copper. I’ve lived in many 3rd world countries and the visual real estate expanses afforded to someone visiting the Good Earth Coffeehouse is worth a mental 10,000 a cup. Food was great, service was solid... I’ll be back! ”

“ Excellent barista, handcrafted latte with seasonal flavors. Delicious, fresh pastries. We enjoyed the gingerbread latte, orange mocha, honey lemon squish cookie, carrot cake and chocolate danish twist. Not much seating, but great spot to grab and go. Would go back again to this spot in Victoria, Vancouver Island for these tasty treats! ”
