Reviews of Base Camp (Coffee Shop)

Peter Locke

Great coffee, friendly service. Good spot to go when waiting for the ferry.

Kathleen Sukkau

Tasty sandwiches/paninis

Trevor Foltz

Always awesome coffee would it be to extend the hours of operation

Sato Joko

Nice looking place, good coffee, but their debit machine is filthy beyond filthy. Hand to wash my hands when I got back to our place. Hesitant to try the food here because of that. If that's how dirty their debit machine is, makes me wonder regarding the food prep area, the staff & their hand washing frequency & the food itself.

Dominik Klinovský

One of the best desserts I’ve ever had, can’t wait to come back one day to try another one ???? great coffee and friendly staff :)

Adrian Nyland

Delicious coffee, snacks and lunch. A little slow, but not anything that isn’t well worth the wait. They make things with care and attention.

John Nicol

And it was good but I look need another cup of coffee keep it up

Simon Bullock

Fantastic little place & the freshly prepared sausage & egg breakfast roll was light and delicious

Dragonfly Touch

Best coffee in town!! Friendly staff and great atmosphere.

Tony Gardner

Ryan Smith

Coffee was okay. Wait was very long. Having Oat milk would be a bonus

Eric van nus

Egg sandwiches are incredible. Coffee is great. Everything you want in a Cafe. Very Cool.

Christopher Turney (Kitsune Obsessed)

Way over priced for a single coffee, and no one in my group of 8 actually likes the chocolate they put in the mocha and chocolate chai. They only use teabags for the chai, and not the good loose tea, and they don't prepare it properly or let it steep. They shouldn't make you pay out the a#$ for s#|+ that's barely sub par. It pisses me of majorly when people do that

Jeroen Vissers

Great sandwiches and you'll get more coffee then your cup can handle

Traci Smith

Super friendly....popular....decent selection. And they're actually open for service in the morning!! Thanks for the coffee!!????

Emma Claire

Had a chai latte and a dark roast drip coffee. Chai latte had literally no flavour at all, tasted like warm milk, and the coffee tasted burnt. I’m sure they have other good food and drinks as it’s very busy and seems popular but I would definitely skip the chai and coffee! Not sure what all the hype is about, hope you have better luck than us if you go???? staff seemed nice though!

Emily McFadyen

Great food and coffee

Anneli Schmidt

Best vegan breakfast bowl I've had so far! I had the Curried Tofu Scramble which is vegan when visiting Powell River and looking for a breakfast spot. The bowl was not only delicious, but, it was also filling! The presentation was colourful and very nice... since I like eating a variety of vegetables it was perfect, the spiciness was nice and not overwhelming, the potatoes and tofu scramble were perfect. The sauce just brought it all together so well. I tried to replicate this bowl when I got home, but, I couldn't do it justice. The coffee is very good too!!

Viking Strong

Basecamp has a climber/Mexican atmosphere yet there were no mountains near by that would require a basecamp from which to submit from. They have an espresso machine, which makes the most overrated mocha that tastes like water with a hint of coffee dust.

David Brown

Good coffee, great sandwich, fantastic neck tattoos.

Kaitlyn Kubillus

Super awesome stuff, amazing coconut cookies, very warm and cozy

Horacio Waisgluss

Very good! Coffee and sandwiches top...

Therrol Jezierski

Shirley Perry

A great place to get breakfast after leaving Texada, and waiting for the ferry to Comox

Octavia

Great coffee & atmosphere! Vegan treats too!

Maciej Szarecki

Great coffee and run by awesome folks!

Reg Nordman

Open early and a decent spot to pick up better food than on the ferry. Suffers from Power River's overpriced restaurant syndrome. It's not worth the price charged, but the food is tasty.

Paul Leighton

Food is great - healthy, creative and tasty. I really appreciate the waste conscious structure. Love the atmosphere.

Patrick Austin

Awesome Vegan Berry muffins!

Jessica Davison

The trout chowder is TO DIE FOR So good, thank you Base Camp!

Katrina D

This place is incredible. Their breakfast sandwiches with that delectable bread is to die for. Cappucino's are the best in Powell River hands down.

Chris Istace

Popped in here after returning from Lund and waiting in the ferry to head back to Comox. Great shop that totally had their look and feel dialed and love their branding. I was able to enjoy a snack made fresh and a great coffee with solid free wifi working on my laptop in a funky and cool atmosphere. If I’m in town waiting on the ferry again I will walk over here again for sure

Merrill Mantoani

Good lunch, mainly Paninis, sandwiches and soups but good

Libor Štros

Friendly staff and the best grilled panini ????

Adam Matheny

Good food and coffee ,a little expensive though.

Brock Sheppard

Fantastic coffee. Most flavourful egg sandwiches, toasted bun with the right amount of herbs butter and a thin slice of tomato that melts in your mouth. A must stop in Powell River!

Jack Padgett

Amazing people great food

Brett Rutledge

Damn, seriously good breakfast sandwich and solid coffee. The place has a nice atmosphere, friendly staff and very interesting art.

Drey Devito

Base Camp is a great place for both coffee and food. It's in the center of town and the food is unique but amazingly good. I suggest going to this place if you want to have some coffee and food with a good friend.

Adam Coffey

If you were to compare Coastal Cookery to Base Camp over all I would have to pick Base Camp all their food is local and FRESH and not frozen and brought in thawed and served. They make the best sandwiches there too. Plus if your looking for something really yummy in the morning get the Breakfast Bowl it's to die for and it fills you with all the nutrients you need in the morning. Plus they have the best freshly made latte with nutmeg and cinnamon on top. Doesn't taste any better anywhere else. If your there for a drink at Lunch I suggest a Boylans, my favourite flavour is Black Cherry or Birch Beer.

shayd johnson

Has all the recipes of a good coffee shop, except the service is terrible & the coffee is burnt, and bitter. Average place with good branding.

Shaunti Mayenburg

Great food and coffee !

Gael Richards

Good PANINIS

Nate Sklair

Generally speaking I don't expect much from an egg sandwich, my first impression of their sausage and egg sandwich was that it didn't have cheese on it so I didn't expect to like it. It turns out it was absolutely perfect as it was, 10 out of 10 would eat again. You should go here for your egg sandwiches and probably coffee as well

Michael Vader

Amazing atmosphere and friendly staff, right on Marine in the heart of Powell River!

Justin Morrison

I had the best americano of my life at Base Camp a little while back! Also the vegan bowl is absolutely outstanding. Can't wait to revisit!

Patrick Hui

Tasty healthy sandwiches and wraps. A Powell river staple for sure.

Mornin Corp.

I like this place, the decor is nice and their food is tasty

Jon Ben

Good espresso. Nice space. Needs more vegan options.

Marisha Devoin

Was so stoked to come across the Old Town and downtown locations when visiting Powell River. The sweet and delicious elixir of life (coffee), yummy and filling breakfast wrap, treats and a funky, uplifting, artsy atmosphere to chill and do computer work. Learned a lot about Big Foot and mountaineering from the barista at the Old Town location too! Highly recommend!!!

Ryan Thompson

Just had a great venison sausage and egg breakfast sandwich and the best americano in Powell River. Enjoying the chill atmosphere and friendly faces.

Clayton Hill

I absolutely loved Base Camp! Today was my first visit, and I'm sad I've been passing it over for this long. Great decor, and an amazing atmosphere inside. The coffee they had was a nice roast, and really fresh. Their paninis are next level delicious. Would highly recommend visiting!

Jess Dance

DELICIOUS! Here I am in Vancouver drinking a dream; my hubby and I had the pleasure of discovering Powell River this summer (we'll be back,) and came to Base Camp! I bought a bag of Base Camp Organic Espresso Beans which are making my mornings something to look forward to! Thank-you!

Megan Adam

Great coffe, awesome food, stellar service. Best breakfast in town.

Jillian Christjansen

Very friendly and helpful staff, cozy and relaxed atmosphere. I enjoyed a cup of hot, dark coffee sitting cross legged next to a bright window and listening to a barista answer the questions of a curious 7 year old customer from across the counter.???????? Provided almond milk for my coffee at no extra charge and had a great selection of magazines to enjoy.

Derek Cajun

Best coffee in powtown

michelle pieraccini

Best panini ever !!

Allan Chow

Surprisingly good coffee! Coffee was rich and dark as ordered. The breakfast sausage was also delicious. Only problem was that seating was limited and we found ourselves standing for a bit. Still had a great experience here.

Larry Hoesing

Excellent coffee

Jodineugenius

Best coffee on our month long journey. Had to return daily once we discovered this jem. The breakfast sandwiches are by far the most creative and delishious I have eaten. Plug ins available all over, inside and out if you require some time to catch up with the world.

Paul Laverdiere

Excellent breakfast. Nice and relaxing atmosphere accompanied by nice music.

Andyroo Horse

Amazing coffee and stunning home made sausage bap for breakfast!! Definitely stop on the way through!!

Tim Inglis

Amaizing coffee. Amaizing sandwiches, but they better be for $10. If you are in a rush make sure they know. Definately missed the ferry due to slower than nessary sandwich prep.

Pearl Fredericksen

Friendly atmosphere, popular place. Good coffee. Delicious freshly baked rhubarb muffins! The triple peaks wrap is large and filling. The first few bites were delicious, but then the strong spices became too much. Nice big tables outside to sit with a group. Smaller tables inside.

Creative, healthy, colourful food, strong coffee and unique and congenial personalities. Hard to describe coastal, small town vibe.

Noah B

I love the paninis but it would be nice if there were more seating.

Bob Brown

Good muffins. The wrap I ordered was poorly built and they hammered it with seasoning salt before pressing it. I thought the crazy coffee they went out of their way to make for me was good though

Mike M

Delicious food! Excellent service! The only place to have a delicious, locally sourced and fresh made breakfast. Skip Timmies. Go here! Support local and fresh!

Lovely coffees and bits. Like to see it on the other side of the street.

Top notch coffee and food. Decent outdoor seating when it's warm out.
