Drip Coffee Social
Drip Coffee Social is a community-focused café established in 2018 on the Departure Bay waterfront in Nanaimo, offering indoor seating, a patio, and a sandy beach directly across the street. The menu spans specialty espresso drinks, grain bowls, sandwiches, and baked goods alongside beer, wine, and seasonal cocktails. A second location operates on Dufferin Crescent, but the Departure Bay outpost is the standout cycling stop given its beachside setting.
