Great spot to have a look at wonderful Gabriola Island artwork of all media. Very welcoming atmosphere and we were given a tour by Mark, which made it really personal. Beautiful building filled with beauty and peaceful vibes.

Unfortunately, my rating is past tense: The Hive is now closed, due to extortionate rent. A great loss to locals and visitors, The Hive was at the center of the island's cultural heartbeat.

The Coffee Bar upstairs serves the finest hot chocolates I've tasted in a longish time. They use seriously delicious ingredients and craft it into an experience. A nice combination of tastes with the right hint of mustiness that signals the perfect cup.
A cool store on the main floor that showcases some local artists. The upstairs also serves as a lovely venue for some memorable concerts.

The Hive is located in one of the main retail complexes on Gabriola Island. It has two floors - 1 that is retail space and the second that is an art gallery + a coffee bar. The store features a range of merchandise including locally crafted artisan products. It doesn't have the same selection as when the place was called Artworks, so manage your expectations if you've visited before. It's worth a visit to check out the gallery and grab a coffee.
