A local speciality in Wakefield...the Québecoise-- filled with berries and laden with butter.

Pier Street Market










This place is such fun---and it really is the soul of Campbell River. You can buy west-coast fished albacore tuna or buy a warm whole wheat crepe cooked on the spot and stuffed with cream cheese before being dolloped with stewed fresh rhubarb and whipped cream. Island-roasted, fair-trade coffee in any urban-esque variation you choose is made to order.
In the distance, beyond the ocean, are the snow capped mountains of the coastal range. Behind is the Marine Heritage Centre where BCP 45, the B.C.Packers ship that once appeared on our $5 bills, is being rebuilt by a cadre of local shipwrights.
