French Press Coffee Roasters is opening their new roastery and cafe location in Parksville, and Qualicum Beach houses their convenient downtown coffee shop location. Owner Jeremy Perkins has over 20 years of experience in the coffee industry—to Jeremy, coffee isn’t just a drink; it’s an art, a science and a passion. (Plus, if you need to make sure you’re always stocked up at home, they offer coffee subscription options.)

If you’re up for a bit of a treasure hunt, Qualicum Coffee Island Roasters is well worth searching out as well. They don’t have a storefront, but they are frequent vendors at markets in the area. The best bet is to check out their Facebook page for updates on the markets they will be attending—and if there is a tea drinker in your midst, they will also be pleased to find that the company also offers varieties of loose leaf tea.

Coyotes Coffee Roastery is a much-loved local favourite. They take their coffee seriously, micro-roasting their small batch coffee every week for guaranteed freshness, and prioritizing green bean sources with fair trade, organic and bird-friendly cultivation.

Creekmore’s Coffee is a family-run business that has been keeping Coombs caffeinated since 2000. They are a small batch, certified organic wholesale roastery, and you can try their coffee at their neighbouring coffee shop and espresso bar. They love sampling new crops from around the world, so while you can count on consistent flavour profiles in their popular blends, you can also look for new and exotic flavours as they experiment.
