Fol Epi - Victoria, British Columbia

One of my vacation's best highlights is my morning coffee and fresh Croissants.
I Googled and found this little French Bakery, Fol Epi, not far from our hotel.
It took me and my wife about ten minutes to walk and get there.
The area is a new neighborhood that is coming up with a lot of construction.
As soon as we walked in, we could smell the freshly baked pastries, which smelled like baked bread, butter, sugar, rising yeast, and vanilla.
We got three fresh and warm Croissants and two coffees from the next door.
On the way back, we noticed a mother deer and a calf, and we had to take a few photos of them.
We enjoyed everything from the patio sitting to our coffee and pastries in Fol Epi.
I recommend visiting this little French bakery and the next-door coffee shop.

Perfectly situated along the main bike path and only a 10 minute walk from downtown Victoria, this is a great stop for a sausage roll or other pastry and a yummy Americano. The service is always great. The atmosphere is full of cyclists and active local crowd. There is also a deli adjacent to the coffee bar where you can get all sorts of savoury lunches and can even grab a beer or a local cider. If you’re staying downtown, I highly recommend taking the short 10 minute stroll over the bridge and past the shipyard to this place

Visited here two days in a row for an early breakfast including coffees and London fogs, and croissants/pain au chocolat. The best croissants I’ve had outside of France by far. Absolute perfection. If I lived closer I would be here all the time. Highly recommend

My favourite organic bakery in the city. In October, I treat myself to their stunning pumpkin pie and tarts.

We went to both locations on a trip to Victoria. Believe the hype, the food there is so good! The breads are exquisite, and their creative use of condiments in their sandwiches are delicious. Both locations have outdoor seating. The sourdough is beyond words.

The owner / baker Cliff has sold and they are really gauging now!

I don’t think the bread is the same quality!

Their bread now tastes like cheap Cob’s bread for 4 times the price!

I was a big customer but the last time I was there I questioned my bill as it was almost 70 dollars for half price bread!

She the counter person informed me after I paid that they are not offering half price and will charge for everything now from a bag to slicing the bread.

I think they will drive away most of the clients.

Stay away as the counter person now says she is helping to make the bread herself!
