Food is honestly amazing, it comes in big portions so don’t b surprised with an excess of food. I will be back and would recommend anyone contemplating it. The vegan and gluten free options are very very good. Pricey but I did eat a ton and added extras
Local favorite for classic brunch!
John’s Place has quite the reputation around town - a recommendation by so many locals! We tried a variety of things here. The Eggs Benny was amazing - eggs poached perfectly and a unique twist of cornbread base. Though the ham and the cornbread were somewhat dry,
I cannot say enough great things about this place. A definite must visit in Victoria, and we will be back! The food was beyond amazing and the service was beyond incredible.
From the greeting, to the timely (but not overwhelming) checkins, the well prepared food, down to the good bye and thank you.
Trust me, if you’re looking for an amazing breakfast or brunch in Victoria, enjoy the atmosphere, with great edible options to choose from, you should definitely try John’s place!
I, myself, suggest Classic Benny and Polish Fritata🥰.
Bon Appétit!

My first time in Victoria and I was greeted with delicious brunch at John's Place. I searched for places to eat for lunch and this appeared. Highly recommended if you are looking for a brunch/lunch restaurant in Victoria downtown. Chicken and waffles were sooo so good!! Excellent customer service as
This is an absolute staple of the downtown Victoria core. The food is amazing, the building and the vibe is historic and eclectic. The staff is friendly, the portions are large, and you will not be disappointed. I highly recommend this place. Most days, you should expect a wait. We got really lucky
One of the best breakfast I've been to. The portion was huge and delicious. Service is amazing. I love the real apple juice and not the store bought one. They even have oat milk option for my coffee. The best part was the homemade pie they gave for free after the meal. It was absolutely amazing and
I absolutely LOVE this place. Came back for breakfast during my whole stay in Victoria. The decoration is awesome, all the people are incredibly helpful and nice and the food is DELICIOUS. One of my favourite breakfast places ever.
This is an amazing place with a lot of pictures of the famous people from there. The service was excellent even though it was around lunch time and very crowded. The pancakes were delicious 😋 as well as the waffles and the egg bens.
Had to take the hubby for a great breakfast date. Staff remembered me even though it was only my second time there, even remembered what I like to drink. Their signature Meatloaf was fantastic. There was even a little Asian lady who was Vlogging the restaurant and food. Hugs
Great place. Delicious food. Great price as well. Had the classic bennys and they were yum. Home made bread was also super delicious, served warm.
The best egg benedict is out of the world!! Great place and amazing vibe! The wait time is usually 10-15 mins or more depending on the rush hours. But the wait is worth it Customer Service is great too, friendly staff and serving with a smile. Must visit places for anyone visiting Victoria.
We had a pleasant brunch with my wife and my friends. The service is excellent and they even helped us in choosing the menu. We ordered Meat lovers hash, Odd couple, valdys frittata and turkey sausage. The chicken strips and the turkey sausage were really good. We will be visiting here for our next
This is a city wide favourite for brunch. We had a bit of a wait because there were many people there, but they are quite organized. The service was quick and we all enjoyed our meals. As the crowds dissipated, we had time to enjoy lingering over coffee without being rushed out. We are looking forwa
Took a little while to get a seat but I understand why. Food was delicious, and the place was packed. Quite a solid meal - large portions. They served bread at the beginning. Fresh baked with whipped butter. It was great too.
One of the easier recommendations for brunch
Big menu, friendly staff and tasty food
My only complaints would bee regarding the potatoes not being cooked all the way through
But they were very tasty and crispy
Excellent place for breakfast and lunch in Victoria. Interesting environment with iconic photos of great personalities all over the walls. Their homestyle potatoes were perfectly seasoned. I would definitely recommend to try this restaurant if you are close by.
4 of us went for brunch in the holiday times... There was a 20 min wait, but it went by fast. Once seated there was a no nonsense 'get it done'feeling as far as ordering. Food came out pretty quickly, but it was tasty! Niece ordered a pancake with bananas... She was going to make it to pancakes,
