Soy lattes I have known in Victoria
See All Lists
1. Caffe Fantastico
If I had every soy latte I'd ever tasted before me this one would get the gold star. These are the best educated barrista's I've ever encountered. They are aware of every tiny detail that makes coffee smooth and velvety. Make a stop here the moment…More »
2. Bean Around the World
Nice cozy atmosphere and organic coffee. Good, fast service. My latte was nicely presented but the soymilk was sweetened which drowned out the coffee flavour. It was bearable as it wasn't thin or sickly vanilla flavoured.
3. Serious Coffee
It's always warms my heart when a coffee shop mends their ways and produces a better latte on my next visit. High-five to serious coffee for choosing their non-flavoured soy wisely

This is a soy latte miss. Soy is watery and thus latte is way below the suck-line. As much as I want… Read more »
4. Demitasse Bakery Store
I love that I can wander a short way in a seemingly out of the way neighbourhood and end up here. The coffee is great and so are many of the baked good and pizza slices. They also have some grocery items and candy like an old fashioned corner store.…More »
5. Moka House Coffee
Maybe it's nostalgia but I do love coming here on a cold rainy night, huddling up next to the fire with good friends and a warm cup. It's open really late, serves a good assortment of desserts and is a good destination for a nice long walk along…More »
6. Solstice Cafe
Good coffee, cozy atmosphere and tasty sandwiches to boot. Yet another high quality coffee shop to make you never need to go to a Starbucks in Victoria.

Dining in San Francisco (22)I'm a big fan of fresh, ethnic, fusion food. I'm in search of unpretentious restaurant experiences, great service and great food. |
Survival in Sidney (10)Things to keep you sane in Sidney |
Vegetarian Vancouver (5)Where to get the best vegetarian eats in and around Vancouver |
Dining out in Victoria, BC (26)I've spent more than half my life here and am still a frequent visitor. Allow me to steer you away from the tourist crap and toward the best Victoria has to offer.WARNING LIST Aside from avoiding anything that faces the inner harbour, there are also a lot of chains that masquerade as restaurants which I would run from. Milestones, Cactus Club, The Keg, White Spot, Blenz, Smitty's, ABC, Earl's, Boston Pizza, Macaroni Grill |
Best of Touristy Victoria (11)There are a few touristy things I recommend doing in Victoria. Things that don't disappoint, waste your money or melt your brain. |
Traveling Miss Stacey (28)This is the start of my list of hotels and transportation and terminals on my gastro-tour of the planet.My travel philosophy: If you aren't comfortable, how is it a vacation? |
What to eat in Marin County, California (31)Where to eat around Marin County. Mostly Fairfax, San Anselmo and San Rafael. It seems unlikely but Marin does have an amazing assortment of top notch restaurants tucked into some of the neighborhoods and villages. Probably something to do with the number of Chefs who want to call this home. Lucky us! |
holistic healthcare (2)Places that help me thrive in Marin |
Fairfax, CA (29)Here is an on-going list of businesses I've been to in Fairfax for everything from dining to automotive repairs. This is a great town, everyone deserves a yelp! |
Soy Lattes I have known (15)I am what you might call a soy latte connoisseur or snob. I dislike flavoured and sweetened soy in coffee. Imagine if a regular milk latte at Starbucks all of a sudden came pre-sweetened with vanilla flavouring... yes there would be blood. So why should soy drinkers be stuck with this sub-par coffee experience? This list is for the San Francisco Bay area. I also have a list for Victoria, BC. |
