Lovely Victoria bistro with a James Bay vibe. My wife had the lamb burger and I had the buttermilk fried chicken burger. Both were delicious! Friendly staff and live jazz topped off a great date-night. We'll be back!
P. S. Try the stilton cheesecake - it's divine!
I love this place so much! We go for brunch fairly regularly and they never disappoint. Also for dinner try the fried chicken and potato salad, it is amazing!
We attended a beer pairing dinner there last week and not only were the pairings spectacular, the people we mingled with were a lot of fun.
A shout out to unibroue, and owner Andrew Moffat and his staff. I recommend heron rock for dinner, and just found out that they do an impressive breakfast fare.
Thank you Heron Rock for putting on an amazing Dine Around Town menu!!! I had the Crab Fritters, Albacore Tuna and Chocolate Dome Mousse. Each course was delicious and the the Craft beer pairings were on point. Will definitely be coming back. �
Great neighbourhood bistro. Good food and efficient wait staff.
Excellent service and great food!! Awesome place for brunch, lunch or dinner!!
Excellent place to enjoy food and good company! Our brunch was fantastic!
Excellent food, service, atmosphere ... we loved it so much we went back two days in a row, on our trip to Victoria!
Excellent food, great service, warm atmosphere. Our server was very friendly and sweet. Portions were generous, and the washrooms were clean. Definitely coming back!
Great food ! Excellent service and cozy comfortable seating, I highly suggest eating here !
Overall a great experience with consistently good food. They accommodated our larger group (6 adults, 5 kids) with a smile and my meal was excellent, as it was the 6 other times I have been there.
Ate here for valentines day, food was amazing. Live music & all.
I especially love the brunch but this place does every meal to perfection! The people and space are warm and inviting <3
Great food, great service. This was the very first time I had poutaine and it was very tasty. The Bennies were outstanding. Thanks.
The Dungeness crab eggs Benedict is yummy, and Andrew is a fun waiter�
Great eggs benny bit off the beaten path but not really that far. Bit pricey but so is everything in Victoria
Great food healthy portions and awesome service. And the exhibition of Art was a good blend with the atmosphere.
The Prime Rib Bolognese was amazing! , Friendly, personable service, good music.
Great food, drinks, art, music, service and atmosphere!
Great job on the Pork Belly Eggs Benny! Food is always the best here! Thanks Heron Rock Bistro
Great service, amazing food, affordable with good size portions.
Great food, great drinks, awesome atmosphere and staff
Went there for the first time and will be back! The food was great, service, was great!
Always good and love the local ambiance. Clam chowder is one of the best anywhere. Great service!
I love going here for brunch. Best corned beef hash I've ever had.
My first ...but not the last visit. Breakfast with friends - superb!
I love the food, atmosphere and music!
I would recommend it.
Their Mushroom Hash is just phenomenal! Amazing service, cozy environment and a very diverse menu. Loved the experience and recommend them 100%.
A great place to go for comfort food. Once you try the potatoes with any egg Benny dish, you'll be hooked and you will come back for more. They are consistently awesome. The cocktails, wine, and beer were tasty, too. Good for couples, small groups or families.
Delicious food at very reasonable prices! The duck wings were particularly tasty. I also love the late night happy hour. Will definitely go back
Came here based on Google reviews and we were NOT disappointed. Probably the best tasting Ceasar salad I've had in years. Falafel burger was super tasty as well.
Best chowder I've ever had. Wish I had ordered the bowl. Bread pudding could have used more custard but that's probably personal preference. Unseasonably busy and short staffed when I was there in late November but still amazing service and delicious food. Attentive and very sweet waiter. Absolutely recommend.
Everything I ordered was NYC quality, no kidding. Hole-in-the wall…don’t let it fool you. They make & bake so many things in-house it just puts their food over the top. Calamari & Caesar salad were awesome. Oysters were super fresh. Prices were quite reasonable compared to the tourist places downtown. Go here you will not be disappointed!
We ate here 2 days in a row! It was convenient located in the heart of James Bay. Atmosphere was wonderful, menu items were plentiful and food was over the top! Live music twice a week people! Great little place to visit and will now be our go to place for eats!!!
The food here was fantastic. Our first try of poutine and we quite enjoyed it. Lovely seafood chowder was packed full of clams and fish. Really good green salad. Definitely recommended
Upon looking for a breakfast place close to our hotel, We discovered this hidden gem and decided to try it. Inside, you could tell there were many locals, which assured us this place was perfect. This charming local breakfast bistro catered perfectly to our group's breakfast desires, presenting various options. Adding to the experience, the staff showed exceptional politeness and warmth. When our orders arrived, we found ourselves super happy with the outstanding flavors and quality of the cuisine. Departing from the restaurant, contentment filled us, setting an ideal tone for the day ahead. This is the perfect way to start a morning in Victoria. It was so good that we found ourselves drawn back again the following day, unable to resist another delightful breakfast.
We had the most amazing service from each server we encountered! Food was good and the dog-friendly patio means we’ll definitely be back!
I absolutely love Heron Rock! Best Chicken and Waffles Eggs Benny in town. Tucked away in James Bay with a warm friendly atmosphere and the loveliest staff, definitely worth a visit! I would highly suggest brunch, they serve all week until 3pm. Chefs Choice Triple Benny is a great way to explore the menu or for people who can't decide and like a surprise. The chef will make you three different Benny's of their choosing and it's been super yummy every time! If you're feeling like a Cesar or Mimosa, Heron Rock has a fantastic list of all kinds of Cesar's to try as well as their "Manmosa".
What a lovely place with fantastic staff and great & tasty food. I had the freshly cooked mussels, they were amazing, afterwards the warm Reuben sandwich which I also enjoyed. The bread pudding was delicious.
Heron Rock Bistro is a fantastic restaurant that I recently had the pleasure of visiting. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The decor is tasteful and cozy, with comfortable seating and a relaxed ambiance that makes you feel right at home.
One of the standout dishes I tried was the Dungeness Crab Benedict, which was absolutely delicious. The crab was fresh and flavorful, and it paired perfectly with the perfectly poached eggs and rich hollandaise sauce. It was one of the best versions of this classic dish I have ever had!
But the Dungeness Crab Benedict is just one of the many outstanding food options at Heron Rock Bistro. The menu is diverse, with a wide range of dishes that are expertly prepared using fresh, high-quality ingredients. I also tried the seafood chowder, which was loaded with fresh seafood and had a rich and creamy broth, and the stuffed French toast, which was decadent and satisfying.
The service at Heron Rock Bistro is also top-notch. The staff are friendly and attentive, and they go out of their way to make sure that every aspect of your dining experience is enjoyable. They're knowledgeable about the menu and happy to offer recommendations or answer any questions you may have.
Overall, I would highly recommend Heron Rock Bistro to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience in Victoria. The food is outstanding, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the service is polite and attentive. Whether you're in the mood for brunch, lunch, or dinner, Heron Rock Bistro is the perfect choice.
After a long absence, it was wonderful to come back to the Heron! The place is even better than before, and the staff are upbeat, knowledgeable friendly and enhance the dining experience. The kitchen continues to shine with tasteful innovative creations and the whole atmosphere is genial, comfortable, and inviting.!
This is a great place for breakfast or lunch. The staff are very friendly and there is seating inside or on the patio. The menu has interesting item choices and everything I have tasted here is delicious. Breakfast is served all day. There is level access for wheelchair users and lots of low tables. There is a large, single room washroom that is fully accessible.
Burger was so yummy. Tastes of fennel seeds and caramelized onion with a delicious aioli with a homemade bun— nice take on a burger. Interior was pretty run down looking, and some strange decor choices, but outdoor patio was nice. Servers were attentive and helpful.
Heron Rock Bistro is a really great place to dine in and enjoy a meal. My wife and I visited from the Edmonton area and we were very glad that we found this place. If you are not familiar with a certain menu item, it may come as a surprise, so make sure you know what you are ordering first. I had the reuben sandwich with a house salad, which was spectacular! The dinning experience was nice and the staff are accommodating. Thank you Heron Rock Bistro staff for the wonderful experience:) We hope to visit again one day in the near future.
