James Bay Coffee And Books - Victoria - Photo album
This is an amazing little place if you love coffee and books. Budget some time to explore…the hundreds of books on a range of topics. No rush for those laptop hobos…loitering is encouraged. Great coffee too!
Delicious coffee and baked goods. SO MANY BOOKS! Don't let the small entry fool you. Beyond that, there were rooms filled to the ceiling with books. I could have spent the entire weekend there.
We have tried other coffee shops but this is the one we end up back to. We like the atmosphere, the people we have met there are great. We really enjoy the coffee, food, and staff. The book selection is fantastic and prices are very fare. Just a great place to spend a couple of hours and relax.
I cannot describe how deeply comforting this place is! Felt like home
A really charming and unique bookshop tucked away in the heart of James Bay. The coffee shop has great coffee and snacks, and the fellow managing the bookshop is very knowledgeable and helpful.
I've been in Victoria over 30 years and the owner is fantastic-really he is a connoisseur of books- a sommelier of literature. His store is enchanting and he is knowledgeable and helpful. Don't miss this gem of a coffee shop.
This was a really cool spot! we just stopped in for a coffee however it's really cool how it's connected to the bookstore. It has a very homey feel and everyone seemed so comfortable there. The coffee's we ordered were done super fast and made with care. The staff was super friendly as well.

Barista on duty provided an excellent service and the local cof
Great bagels and Unique Atmosphere.
Truly distinct coffee shop that stands out from the regular Starbucks and Timmie's. The people working here truly want to give you the best hospitality service. They do not see you as a transaction, instead they see you as a potential friend. If you're visiting Vi
Covid has hit many businesses. It's nice to have it back where you can go in if you like. Absolutely great coffee. Grab one and walk to Dallas rd and enjoy the breathtaking ocean. Then head back and get another coffee and browse their many readings (books) that are offered.
Fabulous! Funky! Friendly! Excellent food (vegetarian, vegan or carnivorous offerings), dangerously good baking, fair trade coffee. Soft chairs, sidewalk seating, plethora of books and free wifi. Did I mention friendly? Good food? Books? What are you waiting for!!!! 🤗
Always a pleasant coffeeshop to visit. Staff are friendly, coffee is great. Having indoor seating amid the new world order is excellent to see. Great community business.
Thanks. J
Very cute and cosy little spot to have coffee and a sandwich. The decor is made up of second hand books, and antiques for sale, so there is plenty to look at while enjoying your sandwich, pastry and coffee. Staff are relaxed and attentive. They also have couches to settle into if you really want to
I came on Thursday the 9th of feb. had a great chat with the girl working and enjoyed my coffee.
Wow! The cafe is an absolute DELIGHT! Really awesome and friendly staff, an absolute treasure trove of books combine for a wonderful way to spend a chill morning. I'm so happy I stumbled on this gem
