Guidebook for Victoria
Food Scene
Great spot if you want to enjoy HOURS of great eating. We love going there and ordering one or two dishes at a time... whilst enjoying their tasty cocktails (which aren't overpriced like a lot of other spots downtown). You should absolutely try their bacon wrapped almond figs, their sangria and their shafts! Lots of their plates include wonderful homemade sauces. You should ask for extra foccacia bread.

Closest restaurant. It's actually really good. They have a nice breakfast menu and they may not have too much of a lineup as opposed to a lot of breakfast spots in the city. Good stuff for happy hour or late-night menu.

The best bennys in town! Try the Polish or the Becketts (a little spicy), you won't regret it. Expect a bit of a wait to get in, especially on the weekends... it's totally worth the wait, though!

Enjoy walking around the floating houses. They are absolutely adorable. There are a few restaurants around as well including some delicious fish and chips. Take a look in the water, there might be a friendly seal or two there wanting some snacks!
