Best spot in Victoria - Edit
One of my favorite cafes/bakeries of all time — honestly the fried chicken caesar salad alone is worth a trip to Victoria. And their treats! So incredible. I love their cinnamon rolls, and I've also enjoyed their brownies and fruit bars.

The BEST Vegan Cafe and Bakery! - Edit
When visiting Victoria for a 5 day stay we visited Fern’s twice because it was just so good! We tried the breakfast sandwich, buffalo chicken burger, and the Big Mac daddy burger off the menu and had several of the pastries and cookie! Everything was 10/10!!!! This is a must visit place if you are in Victoria and the cinnamon buns are not to be missed!!!

Great cinnamon bun - Edit
Good coffee, and a great cinnamon bun!

Cinnamon roll! - Edit
Echoing a previous review that the highlights of this meal were definitely in the bakery case. Loved the cinnamon roll and berry scone. Breakfast items were good but didn’t compare to the pastries.

Bakery is the winner here - Edit
Went here for some pastries and brunch. I’ll start with the best part, the bakery. Seriously amazing pastries. The croissant and donut were amazing. Really incredible. The food was good, but was a little forgettable. Not the best Mac and cheese I’ve ever had and the flavors in the scramble didn’t stand out. The bakery can’t be missed though.

Best Vegan food in town - Edit
We absolutely love Fern Cafe. We live a bit of a drive away but try to get here as often as possible. The "honey" mustard Chickun crunch Burger is mouthwateringly good. It is a household favourite. The big bad breakfast sandwich is also phenomenal. The fries are fabulous. They know how to make a great Matcha late. Finally their donuts... sooooooo good. Whenever we go I get dinner and lunch for the next day as well as tasty baked goods. I have a bit of a problem with loving this restaurant WAY TOO MUCH. Staff are also very friendly. Thanks for being amazing.

To die for - Edit
Not even lying when I say that the big bad breakfast sandwich is the best thing I’ve eaten maybe all year. My friends were telling me to stop talking because I wouldn’t shut up about how amazing it was with every bite. Everything we got was delicious. I also think the iced chai latte might be the best one I’ve had too. If I was local, I’d eat here everyday. This place goes hard af. In love.

My favourite place ever - Edit
From the food to the staff to the atmosphere, the whole experience at Fern Cafe is excellent. Cosy indoor seat and super cute outdoor seating in a cute neighbourhood. Different selections everyday of amazing baked goods and pastries and just a stellar menu of food. They had a breakfast sandwich special on when we were there that was incredible so I highly recommend following them on social media to keep up with what they’re up to.

Finally vegan cheese curds - Edit
My only complaint is needed more cheese curds on the poutine. The scrambler was also very good. The baked goods looked delicious. And outdoor seating, what more could you want??

Fabulous little find - Edit
Visited after finding this place on Happy Cow whilst on holiday on Vancouver Island. Myself and hubby had the Big Bad Breakfast Sandwich and our daughter had the pancakes. Both extremely delicious, with lovely delicate flavours. Would definitely visit again if we found ourselves in the area again.

I wish I could eat here every day - Edit
This place was so good we ate here both mornings we were in Victoria. The fried Chick'n was great, the pancakes got rave reviews, and I had the breakfast sandwich both mornings because it was so perfect. The cinnamon bun was just okay, but the rhubarb maple scone was fluffy and delicious. I wish I could have tried everything they made - highly recommend!
