The Old Country Market started as a roadside fruit stand providing fresh produce to travellers heading to the west coast of Vancouver Island. Over the years it has evolved into a landmark of Coombs, with a mixture of shops and eateries for locals and visitors alike. Oh yeah, and there are goats… on the roof!
Dining: With three restaurants ranging from fast-casual to table-service, we have options for every finely tuned dining taste.
Marketplace:Travelling to Tofino? Vacationing in Victoria? Wherever you are headed, you will want to stock up with our fresh produce and imported groceries. The locals do!
Shop: There are so many shops under, beside and even behind our world-famous grass roof; chances are you will be able to find what you are looking for.
Treats: When hunger strikes, there are many great options at the Market. “Bee Sting”? “Billy Gruff Bomber”? Our eateries are jam-packed with unique and delicious treats.
