  Mmmm dooonuts and fresh brewed coffee. Is there anything better? I have to say Rhinos Coffee House in Tofino has some of the BEST donuts (or doughnuts if your fancy) I've ever tried! I stumbled across them on my latest visit to Tofino and had a chance to try and abundance of their products (I was a little hungry)!
  
  Day 1 - Coffee and donuts. Let me tell you, the Maple Bacon is an absolute must, and their vegan stuffie? Drool worthy for sure. You better get there early or you'll miss out on the donuts entirely! Day 2 - Breakfast Bagel. Drool Drool Drool... seriously, I've never had such a delicious breaky bagel, mmmm bacooon. What's even better? They have a BRONUT, that's right friends, it's a breakfast bagel on a donut! Ermergerd. Day 3 - Matcha Green Tea Latte and another donut and another breakfast bagel (I couldn't resist!!!). That latte was perfectly sweet and so yummy! Luckily I made it in time for donuts before they sold out! Day 4 - Stocked up on all the coffee options to take home and keep enjoying.
  
  They have an online portal for you to pre-order, as it WILL be busy, it's a hot spot! They also offer catering and international shipping. You can buy their gear online like hats and mugs. You can also purchase some of their coffee online, choosing from Espresso, Medium Roast and Dark Roast. I found some of their Surfer Coffee in store so stocked up on that one! Be sure to check them out if you are heading to Tofino or stock up on their coffee online!

  I agree with some reviews here. I think this place is overrated and it is just busy because there is no much option around. The other coffee store/bakery close by is cash only.
  
  Long line ups for not much. Tried their wrap. It's good. Nothing amazing tho. My husband had a tuna wrap. He complained it had no taste. Coffee was ok too along with the service.
  
  Last, it's not a comfortable place. Noisy, crowded and you have to deal with the hassle to get a place to seat. This place is not for me, sorry.

  Beautiful space with an expansive menu full of artisanal coffee drinks and sweet treats--it's hard to resist the doughnut display!
  
  I got myself a sour cream glazed doughnut and an iced chai latte. The doughnut was decent--it could've used more glaze and the chocolate drizzle muddled the tangy sour cream flavour profile, but it was still good overall. I liked the tea latte because it wasn't overly sweet. The paper straw it came with was a pleasant surprise! I had actually brought my own reusable straw because I wanted to reduce plastic use, but I didn't have to use it!
  
  If it's a nice day, you can enjoy your coffee (or other drink of choice) outdoors-- it's a great spot for people watching!

  The never ending line of people must mean it's amazing, no? No. If you can get past everyone and their love of Instagram, then you deserve a pat on the back. Some people we saw came in, took a selfie with the logo on the wall and walked out. Seriously?!
  
  The coffee was really good. My partner bought a big bag of the dark roast. My chai, on the other hand, was disappointing. Tasted exactly like tazo chai from the tetrapak. Was it? I'll never know.
  
  The traditional beer donut was really unappetizing. I have no clue how they sell so many of them. We didn't try the others but tons of people were heard making their ooohs and aaahs, so clearly lots of people like it.
  
  My partner said the breakfast wrap was ok but nothing to write home about. I got a $10.50 pastrami sandwich and it was tiny for the price. I have also never been served french fry shaped cuts of pastrami in there. It wasn't sliced but tiny french fry shaped strips. There was hardly any pastrami in it. You might as well call it a grilled cheese with sauerkraut and a hint of pastrami. It should be $7.50 at best or make it bigger. I also got a sausage roll which never showed up over 15 minutes later. We had to ask about it and she said she forgot it in the microwave. Back up lady, did you say you microwaved a puff pastry sausage roll!??!?! She sure did. It was limp and greasy. I thought they would bake/toast it crisp. Even though it was limp, it was still delicious.
  
  I think if you're in the area and wanting a coffee and a bite, sure go for it. In my books, it's not worth making a dedicated stop for.
