Where to eat and stay in Oak Bay

45 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels in Oak Bay, British Columbia — compiled from open data and public registers. Free to search, and no venue pays to appear.

We hold 45 venues in Oak Bay — 44 places to eat and 1 to stay. That makes it the 65th-largest of the 799 towns and suburbs we cover in British Columbia, carrying 0% of the region's venues.

Of the places to eat, 41% are cafés against a national figure of 19%. Oak Bay is 22 points more café-heavy than the country as a whole, which usually points to daytime and weekend trade rather than an evening dining scene. The full split is 18 cafés, 15 restaurants, 7 takeaways, 1 bars and 3 pubs.

27 of the 44 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are coffee shop (7), pizza (4) and sandwich (3). Relative to the rest of the country Oak Bay is unusually strong on sushi, coffee shop and sandwich — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.

On the practical detail: 25 publish opening hours (56%) and 2 have outdoor seating. Coverage here is better than the 21% national average, so the hours below are more reliable than most.

Places of a similar size — Fergus (45), LaSalle (45), Sechelt (45) and Mont-Laurier (46) — average 13% accommodation. Oak Bay runs at 2%, noticeably less, so it feeds locals more than it beds travellers.

All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 4 of the 45 venues in Oak Bay carry at least six recorded attributes and so have a page of their own; the rest are listed here, because a page with only a name and a map pin on it would be worth nobody's time. A blank field means unrecorded, not absent. Nothing here is scraped from a commercial directory, no venue has paid to appear, and we publish no ratings or reviews of our own.
