At this Tudor-style Oak Bay cafe, we have a large selection of comfort foods, and we use ingredients that are locally sourced from farms, small businesses, and local suppliers on Vancouver Island. Our lunch menu is rotating seasonally depending on the fresh ingredients we have available, which allows us room for culinary creativity.
Whether you’re in a rush for a quick coffee or cold drink, or looking for an upscale bistro dining experience, our local cafe has something just for you. Our building features three indoor dining rooms, and two outdoor garden patios with a view of one of Oak Bay’s stunning Windsor Park, a place where all of the locals gather in our community.
Come and visit us today to see just what the Windsor Cafe has to offer. Take a journey through our two-level heritage building and take in the atmosphere we’ve carefully constructed. Spend your time admiring the local and vibrant art we’ve adorned our walls with while the sounds of soft jazz echo slowly in the background, welcoming you home.
STEPS AWAY FROM THE OAK BAY MARINA
Nestled in the heart of Oak Bay, we are located steps away from the gorgeous Oak Bay Marina on scenic Beach Drive. Enjoy a luxurious baked pastry, a gourmet drink, or a seasonal lunch menu feature in our fully licensed establishment, and take a stroll down to the waterfront on a summer day, or escape the Victoria winter weather with one of our warm fair trade and organic coffees. No matter the season, the oceanfront provides an idyllic setting for your Oak Bay cafe dining experience.
