Progressive minded coffee spot with an emphasis on sustainability, art and education. The owner cares about the community and an advocate for Victoria to become a better biking city. They carry some fantastic books on the subject as well as a Greener planet. The seating is very comfortable and spacious with good ergonomics. However the Wi-Fi was lacking that only five down and one up. Those of us who are digital Nomads could really use better wi-fi. Coffee was very good and I'm hoping it was organic although I didn't see anything listed that way. Unfortunately no pour over and no coffee tonic and no Bulletproof. The pastries were excellent and I especially loved the peanut butter bar. There were no gluten-free options. Based on what I saw in regards to the literature on hand, I'd like to encourage the owner to apply for 1% for the Planet and also to strive to become a B Corp. This is the most important coffee shop in Victoria.

First off, the staff are all so friendly and nice. None of the barista give off “I’m in a rush” kind of vibe. Great at answering questions and super helpful. I love that they used a local coffee roaster as their provider of beans. It was my first time trying Bows and I will be purchasing from them again. Do yourself a favor and try their Marta Julia Munoz Guatemala beans. Then buy yourself a bag!

I was kind of skeptical due the location, but far from that has become one of my favorite cafe to spend my time working peacefully while eating and having good coffee. Is noticeable that baristas make coffee with love.

I’m not from Victoria and was referred here by several people -and it did not disappoint. As well, I didn’t have cash to pay for parking and only had tap.. the staff took money (very happily) out of their tip jar to help me pay! What a great place and people

Active, lively, busy, fun vibe. Food options were quite limited on a Sunday morning, but that might not be normal.

If you're looking for a cozy spot with a top-notch mocha, this coffee shop hits the mark. Fantastic ambiance for chilling out or getting work done. Situated in a prime location, it's a great spot to enjoy quality coffee while being productive or unwinding. Highly recommended!

This place exceeded expectations. We got a latte and a root beer fog. The baristas are very friendly and knowledgeable and the beverages were absolutely delicious. This place was open after a few other shops were closed for the day which was convenient for us. Highly recommended for some great coffee and teas! A lot of natural light comes in from the windows and the music was nice.
