Vanilla Leaf Bakery Café

A daily vegan soup and several wraps and sammies in the deli. Amazing focaccia bread and some sweet treats too that are vegan. Recently they had a vegan orange cake and I had this beautiful breakfast burrito too!

"They offer a daily vegan soup along with a variety of packs and sandwiches in the deli. The focaccia bread is amazing, and there are some delicious vegan sweets available as well. Recently, they had a vegan orange cake, and I also enjoyed a beautiful breakfast burrito!"

Consistently friendly service with plenty of vegetarian and vegan choices available.

Located in the Driftwood Centre in the heart of North Pender Island, this establishment offers a delightful selection of bread, coffee, sandwiches, salad rolls, savory pastries (which can be heated for you), pies, and sweet baked goods. All the breads are vegan, and they also feature a variety of other vegan options, including Jamaican patties, sausage rolls, sandwiches, iced carrot cake cupcakes, peach crumble, and chocolate squares. I tried five different vegan items, and they were all delicious—just a heads-up, the Jamaican patty packs quite a spicy punch! The only downside is the use of plastic takeaway containers.
