The Danforth Deli & Grill is downtown's specialty cheese shop and eatery.

Situated a stone's throw from the beautiful oceanfront harbour in the shopping district of downtown Nanaimo.

Please contact us at our FACEBOOK page for shop hours of operation.

The Danforth name comes from the Danforth anchor which most smaller nautical vessels still commonly use.

The Danforth Deli & Grill is locally owned and operated.

As for our food, it is simple. However, even our grilled cheese sandwiches are made to a high standard of quality. Our breads are made in-house, with all natural ingredients.

As for our cheese, we have many Canadian, Local and Organic cheeses to satisfy your palate. Vancouver Island and the interior's cheeses are made to an extremely high level of standard. Smoked cheddars and organic grass-fed spiced gouda are some of BC's finest. Quebec also is a rich source of wonderful cheese from right here in Canada, including an organic raw milk blue cheese.

Let us treat you to some simple delicious foods in our eatery and provide you with some excellent cheese to go home with!
