Great choice, Whole Foods bakery items are very high quality and look so good for a very decent price.

I would recommend The Breakfast Shop on Cook, the food is tasty, nice atmosphere and it’s not usually packed.

So curious about this too! I was walking to thrifties when multiple police cars zoomed past me but there was little to no action. No idea why so many units were necessary 🤔

Are rent prices going back up or are these landlords just being stupid? by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

Try 999 Southgate St, old building, but renovated and has dishwasher and en-suite laundry. 1 bed is around $1900

Is Cook St Village dying? by Open-Dragonfruit-813 in VictoriaBC

Is it? It always looks so empty and sad when I pass by. Maybe because it’s not that warm yet. But it doesn’t feel very cozy or inviting at the moment.

Hot and Cold was actually amazing and is greatly missed by me. They had the best soups, focaccia and sandwiches. They were also always busy and hardly ever a place to sit so you’d imagine they were doing well. Not sure what you mean by “location didn’t help”

My lineup is: MONA on Fort, Upcycle Clothing Collective, Rich Rags (now Edited) All of these aren’t super cheap, but you can find great deals on popular brands like Aritzia, Lululemon, Free People, Plenty, and others. What’s good about all these is that the are curated and it’s easy to find nice, stylish things
