Our Next Stop

OOOOOOoo, I am excited for our next stop. I haven’t been back here in a while but when I was doing this inquiry blog I knew I had to go back. Bear and Joey has got to be one of the most beautiful cafe/restaurants in Victoria. Now, I recognize that this is a little less cafe and a little more restaurant, however, they have a full coffee shop on one side fo their location. It is unique, inspired by Sydney Australia as the owners are Australian. It is absolutely worth a visit if you are in the Cook st. area. So lets get into it!

The Coffee

The coffee, delicious. I know I say that a lot, but Victoria’s coffee scene is so delish. Their espresso is definitely a more mild flavour but it is easy drinking. Their latte art and astethic is their WHEEL HOUSE. I guarantee that you are going to want to take pictures of your fancy drink if that is what you order. Overall, I give their coffee 3.5/5 stars.

The Food

Bear and Joeys food… is unique. Personally I have only tried their granola bowl and their breakfast sandwich and I was not a fan of either (and they are very expensive). I find that they’re really trying to make their food unique, colourful and different. They accomplish this. However, for someone like myself, I prefer the classics. This may just be a preference of mine, as they are never lacking customers. You can be sure to get a cool instagram photo and a burst of unique flavours and if that is what you’re looking for than this will be your place. Overall, I give their food a 3/5.

The Atmopshere

By and large, Bear and Joey is one of the most aesthetically pleasing cafe in Victoria. Hands down, no question. You walk in and you do feel like you are in a beach town – apparently Australia- I have just never been to Australia. You walk in and the staff are friendly, the music is good, the decor is bright and unique. This experience is what you come here for. The owner is so personable and takes the time to get to know his customers. I hadn’t been in for months and when I came in he remembered my name and that I was in school. Talk about customer service. I also love how you walk in and you can choose to go to just the cafe, where they have delicious baked good and to-go coffee or sit and stay where you can get food or still just do coffee and a baked good. Hands down one of the coolest places to go for a coffee date in Victoria. 6/5!!
