Fol Epi

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.

High quality bread and baked goods. There is very limited space inside to sit. However, there is a large patio outside if the weather permits. The coffee was solid as well. Prices were at the high end of the scale and were not justified. Service was average at best. Probably not on my list of places that I will return to on a regular basis.

Very cute spot with plenty of outdoor seating. Go check them out on a nice day. They also have inside seating. I just wish the coffee was a little better. It read as very tanic to me.

Surprisingly unimpressive selection of pastries leaves almost no interesting breakfast options. The quiche was quite appetizing and satisfying. Both ham u0026 cheese and almond croissants were had poor texture and bland taste. To aggravate the situation, the almond croissant was flavoured with an immense amount of almond essence, making the the taste artificial and rather unpleasant. The kouign-amann was dense and overly sweet. A big disappointment, overall.

Great little bakery, especially for those looking for something extra special. Highlights: Outdoor seating Fresh Nice bike lane route nearby Things to consider: Parking Went with some friends, and I'm glad they took me here. It's right behind a coffee shop, which is quite convenient. Can't go wrong with baked goods and coffee. Got the small pizzas to share, which was very kindly heated up for us. The pizza was good, it had a nice little crust that had a nice crisp. The topping/crust ratio was also good; I didn't feel like I was just eating a Flatbread. I also got myself a loaf of whole wheat sourdough bread (I think I got that right). My husband likes bread that have a bit more substance, so it delivered on that requirement. They do have spacious outdoor seating, as their indoor seating is limited to a small table and some bar stools. Which, with nice weather right now is really inviting. I just regret not taking photos this time!!

Clean store, super friendly staff, and excellent bread! Looking forward to returning and trying their other items. High prices, but given the quality and taste it’s justified.

When everything you touch turns to gold it's hard to believe the downtown location had to close. There is nobody that does it better than you beautiful people with Fol Epi. Fol Epi has been, for a long time, the reference point of excellence by which I measure every bakery. The owner has exceptional standards for everything but most evidently, for flavour - Perfect seasoning, luxurious richness, flaky perfection and an array of sweet and salty that will knock your socks off. This isn't your bargain-bin bakery looking to trade max calories for your malaised dollars - this is the GOLD standard for quality, flavour, passion and skill - a match made in heaven. Fall into this Frenchman's dream knowing that you're in the hands of a master whose attention to detail lets nothing slip into the ever-present ordinary and who holds each one of his creations high, high above the clouds, somewhere in the light, fit for an angel, yours to behold. We are blessed xo Today I got what I thought would be a simple muffin and shared a breakfast sandwich with my wife, and held back from their All-Star line up of pastries, just a simple muffin and ready to grab breakfast sandwich. And the taste? Texture? It was perfection, of course... How silly of me... they're ALL Stars and Fol Epi is, as is has been since it's beginning, the Undisputed champion. Thank you for your Art

We had wonderful pastries and lattes here this morning. The patio was wonderful, and we enjoyed sharing a few of our crumbs with local sparrows.
