Bocca - Nanaimo

I would live in this cafe if I couldThe food is fresh and you get a lot of it.

I should have known not to expect a mind blowing experience when I asked if we could move 2 tables together and the waitress (who wasn't doing anything

I enjoy the signature items at this cafeIt's got a nice little lane way to sit in and sip some coffee and eat a warm lunch.

Sometimes it's rare to find health, delicious and great value. Portions are size huge. The peanut butter Nanaimo Bar and hot chocolate is amazing. Everything else looked yummy too. Lots of vegan options. Quirky seating area inside and out. A must stop while in Nanaimo.

Bocca's was recommended to us by locals for the best Nanaimo bars in the area. We bought one and it was delicious but thought we'd walk around and check out the other bakeries/stores before buying half a dozen to take with us. We quickly learned that Bocca's had the largest and best looking Nanaimo bars around at the best price so we returned and made our purchase. They had the traditional bars but also offered peanut butter, pecan, and turtle bars. We also ordered a sandwich that had hearty sourdough bread (seeds included) that was very tasty. Bocca's has outside seating in a small grotto area that made it a charming place to have a coffee and a sweet Nanaimo bar to regroup and relax.
