Well-established French restaurant located in downtown Victoria. The owner is ready to retire after successfully operating the business for the past 7 years. The seller is willing to provide training if the buyer wishes to continue operating it as a French restaurant. No commercial hood is required, making it easier to create delicious and beautifully presented French cuisine. Liquor license is already in place. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a unique and exotic restaurant in a prime downtown location.

2024:

 

 

 

 

Laurent Neveu is passionate about food. But that passion is being tempered by sharply rising costs that threaten to drive him out of Victoria’s restaurant scene.

The Victoria restaurant owner is speaking out about the steep rent increases that have forced several restaurants out of business in recent months.

Neveu, owner of Joie French Cafe and Joie Grillades, told Victoria News that his two separate businesses, under separate contracts with different companies, have faced a 20 per cent increase in the lease and commercial space contracts since January 2024 within a span of three months of each other. He had a prior 10 per cent rent increase in March 2022.

From Neveu's perspective, he wishes there was more room for discussion. "It's a business relationship, it's not a human relationship," he said. "Some owners are very good and they try to help as much and as long as they can. I don't have that luck," he said.

"I'm not sure what I can do except transmit my disappointment."
