Our Story

Welcome To

Eve Olive

Eve Olive offers dishes influenced by various cultures, using 100% plant-based ingredients to deliver savory flavors and creative dishes. This is Nanaimo’s first vegan restaurant to offer wines, beers, and cocktails since 2018. Cozy up by candlelight in the winter or enjoy the patio on a sunny summer day. Our 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; we’re open 5 days a week. We carry a selection of wines, primarily from local wineries, as well as local draft beer and modern cocktails, including liquor from our local distillery.
