Our Story

Welcome To

Eve Olive

Eve Olive features locally sourced and organic ingredients when possible, and offer dishes from various cultural influences, using 100% plant-based ingredients, delivering savoury tastes and creative dishes.  This is the first Nanaimo vegan restaurant to offer wines, beers and cocktails.  Cozy up by candlelight in the winter, or enjoy the patio on a sunny summer day.  Dishes are handcrafted, plant-based, and made with love, offering 80% gluten free options, without sacrificing taste, presentation or nutrition.  Come visit Nanaimo’s newest gathering place on Rutherford Hill, at Rutherford Boardwalk, open Wednesday through Sunday.

We carry a selection of wines, primarily from local wineries, local draft beer and modern cocktails, including liquor from our local distillery.
