Thirty Years of Setting the Table
On Waddington Alley, a narrow passage linking Johnson and Yates streets, a heritage courtyard has held its ground for more than thirty years.

Liv a Little on the Island
It always begins with the little things — the perfect cup of coffee in hand as sunlight pours through a window, or a dish so comforting it lingers in your mind long after the last bite. That is the spirit of Liv Café and Bistro in Oak Bay — a place where love, flavour, and creativity come together in the most beautiful way.
