This is the correct info for this business. Yelp is a little slow on the uptake for updating this info and I figured people would be severely confused if they went to the King St location and wanted breakfast or a beer and a pretzel in a modern atmosphere.1 Previous Review: Show all »

Absolutely my new favourite haunt and the best cafe south of Fort!

I was very happy to see another Fantastico open up closer to downtown, Fantastico is one of a group of great espresso cafes in Victoria, such as Discovery and Habit. But very happy turned to thrilled when I discovered they are also serving my favourite croissants and baguettes from fol epi, and my favourite local beer: Driftwood Ale.
I've visited Tre Fantastico several days a week for coffee since they opened and the latte, croissants and cookies have been great, as expected. But we recently went in for beer and snacks hoping we'd found a new place for after-work drinks and weren't disappointed!
I had the Driftwood Ale, my friends had the Oatmeal Stout and the Arctic Ale, all were good. What surprised us was the quality of the cheese and charcuterie plate; a great selection, pleasingly presented, and for a reasonable price! One of the things that is becoming a pet peeve of mine is how many restaurants have taken cheese and charcuterie, something that is basically a rustic shepherd's meal, and turned it into a trendy overpriced and under portioned appetizer. Not so at Tre Fantastico where we were given generous portion sizes and a reasonable price.
We'll be back for many more lattes and ales! -

Caffe Fantiastico is known in these parts for having some of the best espresso, and it's as true as ever here. It's a perfect little spot for afternoon tea, or jetting away from the office on your lunch.
The new location is perfect for those looking for somewhere to sneak away from the office to do some work, or just relax after a nice walk in the park.
I am particularly drawn to this location because of it's proximity to my office, but the consistently fabulous coffee will keep me coming back. They also make a mean chai tea if you're looking for something on the milky side.
One of these days I'll even get lunch, as I hear it's fabulous.Listed in: Culinary Tour of Victoria

Great atmosphere and location. Good job on the coffees. For those of you from Seattle - better than Starbucks but not quote as good as Vivace. We hit it first thing in the morning but looks like they had a nice selection of food and desserts as well as cask ale if you visit later in the day - maybe after a trip to Beacon Hill Park.

Had the pulled pork with my Americano. All I can say is I have found my new lunch spot. Great food, wonderful atmosphere, and nice staff.
Looking forward to visiting again and trying the other menu items!
Soooo glad there is a Caffe Fantastico that is open late and serves beer in the evenings! You can buy Fol Epi bread here too (from their other location at Dockside Green). Glad Caffe Fantastico is becoming a Victoria icon. They have not lost an once of quality as they have expanded.
Edit: I had to remove a star as their food has not really met my expectations over time. They need to be a little more creative than that to keep me coming back. They keep the four stars for their atmosphere and great coffee. -

Great great staff. That is the first thing that I thought when I walked away from here. In addition to the staff, the coffee and the drink selection is fantastic. Apparently they have some sort of deal worked out where they have locally brewed cask ale on tap, from different producers on the regular; a really tasty and fun concept! I would and will be going back.
