Victoria's Hottest Brunch Spot - Was the 1-Hour Wait Worth It?
📍 Blue Fox Café 🦊 Okay, I finally understand what "viral brunch spot" truly means! The line wrapped around the block—I haven't seen a queue like this since my Jam Café days in Vancouver! ⏳😱 After a solid 60-minute wait (yes, you read that right), here’s the full breakdown of our meal: 🍳 Eggs in Hell - $17 Two perfectly runny poached eggs nestled with roasted potatoes, savory pork sausage, creamy avocado 🥑, and juicy tomatoes 🍅. Solid flavor combo—nothing revolutionary, but comforting and well-executed. 🌶️ Moroccan Chicken Benny - $17 The star of the show! Spiced Moroccan chicken breast (so tender!), sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, and a date-apple chutney that added the perfect sweet-tangy kick. Served with those same crispy potatoes, avocado 🥑, and a curry-infused hollandaise. Unique and delicious—this one stood out! 💫 🐟 Eggs Pacifico - $17 Smoked salmon, red onions, fresh avocado, and (you guessed it) more roasted potatoes 🥔. As someone who’s meh about salmon, I’ll admit it was still tasty—but honestly, all the Benedicts here share the same base ingredients (potatoes, avocado, eggs). Pick your protein preference and roll with it! 🍌 Ohana! Banana Cream - $15 The surprise hit! Fluffy double pancakes (or French toast!) piled high with roasted nuts, caramel-brown sugar bananas, sour cream, and a dusting of fresh nutmeg + Saigon cinnamon. Drenched in pure maple syrup, this was decadent but balanced—ideal for sharing (or not, no judgment). 🥞✨ ☕ Drinks Worth Mentioning Spiked Coffee: A boozy twist to wake up your brunch. 🥃☕ London Fog: Classic, reliable, and soothing. 🎤 Final Verdict The good: Friendly service, generous portions, and that Moroccan Benny slaps. 👏 The not-so-good: An hour-long wait for food that’s good but not mind-blowing? Sorry, but I’ve had equally tasty brunches elsewhere with zero lines. If you’re nearby and the queue’s short, sure—but I wouldn’t plan my day around it. 📍 Blue Fox Café 919 Fort St, Victoria, BC (Pro tip: Weekdays = shorter waits!) #VictoriaEats #BrunchGoals #ViralRestaurants #FoodieReview #BrunchLover #CanadianBrunch #WaitWorthy? 🍽️🔥💁♀️🇨🇦
