Here’s a handy list of Qualicum Beach restaurants, cafés, coffee bars and bakeries along with their current hours of operation. UPDATE April 13, 2021: All indoor dining in BC is temporarily halted until May 25, 2021 — but patio service, take out and delivery are permitted.
Our local eateries continue to work under extraordinary circumstances to delight us with tasty food and cheer, and to provide welcomed opportunities to gather for safe socializing. Imagine what life in our town would be like without them. So we say, use it or lose it.
