This garden center, gift shop, and coffee bar located just south of the Sooke and Otter Point Rd. intersection, was a delightful find. We enjoyed strolling through the garden center, browsing the unique gift shop (no items made in China), and sipping on drinks from the coffee bar. I had a delicious large cappuccino, while my wife opted for a crumble overlooking the Sooke Harbour. The staff and other visitors were very friendly and eager to chat. It was a wonderful place to relax and unwind. A must-visit if you're in Sooke.

Coffee was delicious and managed to get a few items for Christmas in the gift shop. Although it was cold outside we sat...in the greenhouse and had a nice visit. Will go again and have another coffee!
