LOCALLY LOVED.

Tidal Café is a locally owned go-to gathering spot for brunch, breakfast and lunch in beautiful Comox. We are proud to be voted Best Breakfast/Brunch in the Comox Valley in the 2021, 2022 and 2023 Reader’s Choice Awards! Let our friendly staff welcome you, pour you a hot cup of coffee or espresso drink, and ensure a cozy, home-cooked, and satisfying dining experience. Our menu items feature thoughtfully sourced ingredients from our signature bowls and bennies to our baked goods and beverages. To top it all off, we’re just steps from the Comox marina, making every visit with us a scenic escape by the sea. And that’s exactly how we got our name!

ABOUT US

Founded by husband and wife, Kurt & Blythe Reimer, Tidal Café was born out of their shared love for cooking breakfast with their three boys and taking beachside vacations as a family.

After travelling the world and bringing home tons of inspiration, they created Tidal Café to give their community of Comox the local breakfast spot it was missing.

As a family operation, the café welcomes all in a fun and relaxed atmosphere where everyone can share a great meal and even better memories.

An amazing spot for vegan options

What an amazing spot for vegan options. The grilled avocado sandwich with tomato basil soup is a touch of heaven on your pallet. Highly recommend tasting the craft brews with your meal as well. Great service and friendly staff.

The food was delicious, and everyone was very attentive to our needs

Absolutely wonderful place. The weather was awful, and we had a puppy. The owner and staff took good care of us ensuring we were warm and out of the rain. Provided water and a snack (for the puppy if we wanted). The food was delicious, and everyone was very attentive to our needs despite being very busy. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Everything was wonderful—the service, the food, the coffee!

We had an amazing brunch at Tidal Café…everything was wonderful—the service, the food, the coffee! We had two vegan bennies and they were so flavourful, especially the tofu. Covid protocols are well-implemented. Thanks for a great experience!
