Hey everyone!I’m planning a weekend trip to Nanaimo and I’d love some local recommendations. I’ve already tried a couple of the bigger spots like Gabriel’s and The Nest, but I’m on the hunt for hidden gems — small, cozy, or underrated places with great food. Any suggestions?

Hey! I did a weekend trip to Nanaimo last spring and found some amazing hidden gems thanks to browsing the Local Business Directory One spot that blew me away was Asteras Greek Taverna—authentic flavors and super cozy vibes. Also, check out La Isla Café for incredible pastries and a chill atmosphere. It’s tucked away but totally worth it. Exploring local favorites really made the trip special. Definitely recommend checking out that directory before you go—it helped me discover places I’d never have found on my own!
