Victoria easily has the worst brunch scene I have ever experienced. Never has so much mediocre fare been accompanied by such ridiculous lines and wait times. I'm talking about you, Mole, Jam, Blue Fox et al. Locals have no clue because they lack a sophisticated...palate and rarely leave the confines of Vancouver Island. The prices are a whole other story. And then we find Logan's. Sunny patio? Check. Superb and friendly service? Check. Massive portions and good prices? Check! Vegan options? Check. Funky and eclectic clientele (and no tourists and senior citizens)? Check. Great tunes at all times. Check. We have been twice and it has been excellent both times. The vegan scramble is the best in the city - super flavourful, with a nice helping of mushrooms and peppers, and hash browns. Fernwood Coffee is delicious. The partner says the drinks are delicious, too. Yes, Victorians, this is the kind of place where people have a drink with breakfast, and not just a mimosa, because they might have had a late night, or are still hung-over. Or maybe they are starting the day off right. The type of place that is very hard to find here, so culturally homogeneous is Victoria. The partner had the Breakfast poutine, with sausage, two eggs, and poutine. It is a huge portion. She could not finish it. Previously she had the huevos rancheros and loved it. Two or three additional dishes can be made vegan, as noted on the menu. I would like to see some soy milk be made available, and some vegan cheese/sour cream to truly substitute and create a great vegan menu item. This is not a dive bar; it just isn't prissy and bourgeois. As I said, the service has been great, and the value is good for the money, especially with the portion size. Did I mention there was no line-up when the doors open at 11:00? This is just a great neighbourhood restaurant that we look forward to visiting regularly.
