🍳 Victoria Locals' Favorite Brunch Spot with a FREE MEAL Hack! 🎉
This restaurant is one of the most famous—and in my opinion, BEST—brunch spots in Victoria! 🏆 Even when I was studying here years ago, this place was my go-to for breakfast. While Victoria might be a "food desert" for some, this spot is an absolute must-visit. The only downside? It’s always packed—because it’s a local favorite! We visited their original location (the flagship store), and wow—the portions are HUGE (they basically insist you leave stuffed!). 😋 The menu is also hilariously fun, with every dish name tied to a pun, joke, or quirky story. 🌟 The Star Dish: "The Mahoney" This is like a brunch blind box—even if two people order it on the same day, they might get completely different meals! 🎁 The chef decides what you eat (no menu stress!), with over 20 possible dishes in rotation. But here’s the REAL GAME-CHANGER: When you order The Mahoney, at checkout, you can choose to flip a coin for your bill! 🪙 A staff member will hand you a Canadian coin (from 1¢ to $2), and you call heads or tails. If you guess right? YOUR MEAL IS FREE! 🎉 If you’re wrong? You pay double. Only one shot—so make it count! The whole restaurant cheers for winners, making the vibe super fun. (Check my video for the hype!) My Mahoney was three eggs Benedict with homemade spicy sauce (you can add any sauce for free). Their motto? "You don’t leave until you’re full!" 🥔 The sides (like their crispy homemade potatoes) are massive and delicious. Their smoothies? Also fantastic. This place and Jam Cafe are THE brunch kings of Victoria—you can’t miss them! 👑 💡 Pro Tips: ✔️ GO EARLY—lines get crazy! ✔️ Open 8 AM–3 PM (no reservations) ✔️ Bring cash for the coin flip (just in case!) 📍 Floyd’s Diner 332 Menzies St, Victoria, BC V8V 2G9 #FreeFoodHack #VictoriaBC #BrunchGoals #VancouverFoodie #VictoriaEats #MustTry #TravelCanada 🍽️✨
