Friendly staff. I had a 12oz Mocha. Great prices. I also had an incredible Raspberry Streusel and a Blueberry Crumble. Great location on Government St.
Incredible clam chowder! Shrimp sandwich was good but not great! Just a bit bland, although the turkey club looked amazing. Not the cheapest eats around, but decent food never is. Ill be back!
Sandwich on a croissant was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Regarding the comments that their sandwiches are 'overpriced', may I ask where you can get a FRESH sandwich for less...heck, McD's is priced about the same for the same size of sandwich, especially in the heart of Victoria. I enjoyed it, if back in town would definitely go back.
Didn't know where to go for a relaxing lunch so stopped in several delis and sandwich shops to check menus and prices. All were pricey. This one looked nice so we thought, why not. So glad we did. The chili was fantastic and the tuxedo cake was even better. Stopped by there twice more in the next few days fora lunch. Pricey but good. Relaxing atmosphere and quiet.(late October).
Good Deli Food. Good lunchtime fare. A little pricey, but I suppose thats what you get when you are in the heart of Victoria right down the street from the Empress.
Had their Beef Dip to go, and it was pretty good. I loved the crusty bun they used for the sandwich.
Got my order to go, so didn't get to enjoy the ambiance of the restuarant, but it seemed nice.
I might go back, but it would be nicer if they had some lower price options.
This place serves really good clam chowder. The shepherd's pie is not that great-way too much mashed potato. If you just want a good bowl of clam chowder, go there!
Fast service, yummy and economical - two thumbs up!
A great sandwich and cold beer. I can't ask for much more from a deli. The shrimp and avocado sandwich was just the thing on a warm summer day.
It is a great place to stop in for lunch. It has amazing ice cream. Under great managemant.
I ordered a proper meal, a shrimp sandwich complimented with cucumbers ($8.95) on a croissant bun (50 cents extra). And oh boy… that has to be the largest and freshest croissant I’ve ever had. It was soft and wonderfully light. The crisp shell made for a good contrast to the meatier shrimp and mild avocado–my taste buds were doing the Spanish Fandango. While I didn’t find the shrimp to be superb, they were certainly fresh, just like that croissant. That was the highlight.
Love Sam's! I go often for my lunch break. Staff is so friendly and nice. Even to the point I know quite a few of their names! They got to deal with a lot of tough customers every day, you can see their hustle! I was sad when my favourite Montreal smoked meat sandwich went off the menu, but I have other favourites like the clam chowder and their pacific bagel and breakfast sandwiches. Clam chowder is super meaty and delicious! Shout out to Naomi! She's awesome!
I visit Sam's nearly every weekday for my BLT. It is an amazing breakfast sandwhich. They have many options for breakfast and lunch. The staff are always extremely friendly and efficient, they have even begun to remember my order.
I love this shop. Thank you for the great food.
Great sanduiches and delicious Cobb salad! Price is pretty good too!
Great place to drop into to grab an absolutely loaded sandwich. Corn chowder is without peer. Outdoor seating to people watch. Good beer and wine for a break after some event downtown while above the madding crowd.
Excellent sandwiches, so big too, I need a bigger mouth to eat them! Shrimp and avocado is top. Mochas are pretty good too. Always so busy and crowded but I have to come here every time I'm in Victoria.
Often stop here for lunch sammies while walking around downtown. Prices are meh but the avocado sandwich we get (vegan style) is a very good option for quick vegan bites. They have ciders/beers here too, making patio eating and people watching very enjoyable.
They advertise unique hotdogs, which I did try...a footlong with cheese and bacon. It wasn't 'healthy' but it was good. A little expensive for a hot dog. Sat by the window which had a great view of the harbor.
Open early, even on Sundays which is perfect for the TC 10k. Also has almond milk for lattes! Lots of salad choices. I only wish there were more gluten-free options for baked goods.
great place for very big delicious sandwiches , so most people have to share these sandwiches , but for me I can eat an entire sandwich to myself. I wish I had time to go to Victoria and get these sandwiches everyday .
Very nice and warm atmosphere, good food at a fair price, could get backed up if lots if people arrive at the same time but staff work quick to move people through.
Great sandwiches and the best soup. Well run business with excellent staff. Worthwhile dropping by for a feed.
Delicious Food. Great View of the harbour. Fast internet for working on my laptop. Casual and cozy environment.
