QV Cafe & Bakery is a family-owned Victoria institution operating since 1989 at the Gates to Chinatown on Government Street, a central artery for cycling in the city. The cafe is a two-time Top Choice Award winner for 'Top Cafe in Victoria' (2018–2019), known for its award-winning air-roasted coffee and an expansive house-made menu covering breakfast, soups, sandwiches, salads, and an impressive selection of cheesecakes and baked goods. Large garage doors open the cafe directly to the street and a spacious patio deck lets visitors sit outside for much of the year amid the sights and sounds of downtown Victoria.
