Dagwoods Cafe - Victoria, British Columbia

Stopped in for a breakfast sandwich—so good I ordered takeaway for lunch (a BLT and a bowl of ham & split pea soup). Everything was fantastic, latte included. The owner is a total firecracker with a ton of heart, running the place solo, and it shows. A regular popped in while I was there (apparently comes six days a week), which gave the café a warm, family vibe. This isn’t just another coffee shop—it’s a little community hub. I’ll be back for sure. Wishing the owner all the best, and hoping more people come out to support a great local spot!

We stopped by Dagwoods Cafe and were absolutely blown away—not just by the food, but by the heart behind it. Elizabeth, the owner, runs the entire show herself, and she does it with such warmth and grace. You can feel the love in everything she makes.

I ordered a sandwich and it was honestly one of the best I’ve had in a long time—fresh, flavorful, and made with care. Yes, it may take a little longer, but that’s only because Elizabeth is crafting each order by hand while handling everything else on her own. She’s doing an amazing job, and deserves recognition—not criticism—for her dedication.

If you’re in the area, please support this incredible local business. Be patient, be kind, and you’ll be rewarded with a truly delicious meal and a meaningful experience. Thank you, Elizabeth—you’ve created something really special. We’ll definitely be back.

My aunt and I came here for the first time today and the coffee was great. Elizabeth makes an amazing caramel macchiato! I can’t believe she runs that place solo. She even came around and checked in on how we were doing and brought us ice water. Super friendly!

Such a sweet, cozy little cafe! The energy was warm and grounding, and that roast beef sandwich was pure magic: crusty soft bread, grainy Dijon, and all the love in every bite. Totally hit the spot. 🌿🥖✨

This one woman show does it all from scratch. No lunch meat chicken on the chipotle chicken sandwich (the best in case you were wondering)! Great coffee and good local shop to support.

Was looking for a good breakfast sandwich & this little gem popped up on google. 10/10 - The one-woman-show/owner was super friendly, the food was delicious and the coffee was hot! Prices were super reasonable and portion size was generous - Will absolutely be going back again!! 🧡

I was not at all impressed with the service and frankly the attitude of the owner here. We can for a sandwich and coffee but the woman that runs the place needs to find a new line of work.

She was very rude considering that she is trying make a living at running a service business. There was even a sign that told people not to be rude to her. Wonder why?

There were no people in the place so that might have been a warning us. Too bad because the sandwich was not bad.

Holy smokes…this place is so good. Traditional diner food….large portions and very very yummy! Let our doggy on the patio too! Highly recommended! Great food and service at this level is hard to find. Great job Dagwoods!
