do they have wifi?

Not sure but I have strong WiFi signal from Shaw when I'm having my morning coffee there.

does this coffee shop sell serious coffee beans

No, they sell a much better coffee called Creekmore . Dark roast, light and decaf. All are fantastic. They will grind your beans how you like. The shop is great for treats and an atmosphere that is not the boring formula so many places seem to gravitate to.

Olive Olio's is one of those little tucked away neighbourhood cafes. Coffee is always hot, indoor or outdoor seating & delicious sweets or savouries for a light lunch. My curried vegetable samosa was delish. Close to Gyro park for visit before or after.

Just a short walk from UVic, Olive Olio's serves delicious coffee as well as reasonably priced and fresh made baked goods. The service was also very quick and friendly.

When ever I come here I always get the breakfast burrito and the London fog. All of the drinks and meals are delicious, but this is probably my favourite. Here you can get one of the best breakfasts in Victoria, especially considering the reasonable price. If you're looking for somewhere to get a cozy, fulfilling meal and a tea remember to come here!

So happy to shelter here on a windy day. House made light lunches are a reprieve from fast food with a nice selection of baked goods and beverages. Summer brings a large patio and people watching. The dog can sleep in the shade under your bench!

Stayed in downtown Victoria (I'm from WA state) and this was by far the best meal I had all week. We happened to stumble upon this place driving around since it was pretty rainy. Granted, I only had the tortellini salad, a pastry, and a latte but the tortellini itself was to die for.

Great little coffee shop. I like the samosas and the veggie breakfast burritos. It's a nice place to go in the summer for the patio, and because of the proximity to the beach, or in the winter for a hot chocolate. The patio is dog friendly (I don't have a dog, but I like seeing the ones that visit there). Parking is a bit tight out front but there's more behind the building.

This is my go-to place. There's no better coffee in the city. Their selection of fresh to order sandwiches and soups changes daily. I most often just get whatever combo is on offer. They also have consistently offered menu items (e.g. veggie breakfast burrito, beef and chicken empanadas) that are consistent for a reason. Each time I am there, which is very often, I am consistently impressed. Impeccable service. Also, while not something everyone cares about, their musical selections are always on point and at a comfortable volume for chit chat. If I could give this place a trillion stars, I would.

What a great little local eatery (& coffee shop) by the beach with savoury options for quick homemade snacks or meals. The coffee and chai lattes are perfection! The service is friendly & speedy, and it’s relaxing environment to read or get a little work done! I may integrate morning pit stops here as part of my routine. 🏖 📚 ☕️

A local coffee shop with character. Located in a beautiful nook in Cadboro Bay, kitty corner from Starbucks... Unlike Starbucks, this cafe has flavourful espresso, and ambiance. The pastries are delicious, offering gluten free and vegan options. Perfect place to get a coffee to take on a five minute stroll down to Gyro Park and the beach.

Nice little coffee shop with nummy baking but my cappuccino was terrible. 1 out of 10. After I watched how the espresso was made and no wonder. She didn't tamp the grinds so the water ran through in like 2 secs.
