Fancy hipster coffee and donut place on 4th Avenue. Basically a satellite location of their original Main location. Parking is pretty awful around here. It's a popular part of town after all. There are metered spots in front, and some spots on the side streets if one is lucky. The venue itself is hipser vintage, with the old looking wood trim. There is a nice bright W facing patio, which is nice as long as it isn't too sunny. Staff are friendly and enthusiastic. Special mention. Donuts (from Lucky's) are definitely pricy, but they are pretty freaking good. Worth treating oneself. Coffees are solid too. Honestly it's worth the few extra bucks. Worth checking out if one is in the area, as long as one doesn't mind the lineup that often goes out the door. Recommended.
Went here today to try to get one of the Koolfest drinks, but they were sold out. I got a salted caramel old fashioned donut and an iced chocolate drink. Both were ok, kind of forgettable. The donut was a bit dry and overcooked. The iced chocolate was nothing special. This place is such a classic though. I will prob come again, just bc of the location and it's a Vancouver staple.
I always stop by when I'm riding to Spanish Banks. Peanut butter and jelly is a fan favourite and never disappoints.
Visiting from Houston, Texas and enjoyed stopping by and trying out this cute coffee shop on the way to Stanley Park and Vancouver Aquarium. Courteous and friendly staff. Great Tasting Brew
Having escaped a local breakfast eatery as we were sandwiched between two large party tables, who apparently consumed microphones before heading for breakfast...we came upon this gem of a place. Have you ever experienced a coffee shop more like a momentary sanctuary? The atmosphere was airy, light, peaceful, chill and the aroma of great coffee and freshly baked pastries all throughout. You have to try their Mushroom Miso Danish....trust me you'll get it again. Their coconut and pistachio croissant was just as good if you're into donuts. I also enjoyed their coffee. It's something in between JJ Bean and Starbucks...that was my experience anyhow. But, what I think I enjoyed more and equally as much as their menu was just the chill, relaxing and calming vibe and energy. That's exactly what I need and want first thing in the morning..... Loved you guys, thank you!
I was so impressed! I knew that the coffee would be great as I had the coffee in Toronto before but it was fun to get to have it in Vancouver where it's actually rusted. While I was in line looking to get a coffee I noticed Luckys donuts were also here. I had never had them before but just looking at all the different options and flavours had me realizing I was going to need at least one donut today. The latte was perfect and very rich in flavor. The gal behind the counter who helped me get my order in was lovely, friendly and efficient. The donut was a huge highlight. Mango and passionfruit curd?! Wow! I highly suggest looking for this one if you like those flavors. The donut was also soft and chewy just as you wanted to be in the curd had the perfect amount of zing to it. You need to stop here if you're in the area! Pro tip prepare yourself for walking uphill if you park anywhere near the water. It's a good incline. It will help you work off the donut
Cherry Old Fashioned I'm not a huge fan of cherry flavoured things because I don't like artificial cherry flavouring. So I was pleasantly surprised that it was not the case here. The old fashioned doughnut was crispy on the outside and there was just enough cherry glaze for it to be a treat without being too sweet. It wouldn't be an order I'd reach for first but I wouldn't mind having it again. Mountain Highway This was easily one of my favourite doughnuts of the bunch. Despite the sweet looking exterior, this doughnut was not overly sweet. I loved how the coffee cream on the inside helped add bitterness to the sweet chocolate ganache that blanketed the doughnut. LOVE LOVE LOVE. I'd definitely order it again and the textural crunch of the nuts just made it all the more delicious. French Cruller A simple fresh cruller that tasted as though you were biting into a pastry dipped in honey. Sweet, simple, delicious. Sprinkled Sprinkled doughnuts always bring a smile to my face and this one did just that. The sprinkles added a pop of colour to the already delicious doughnut. What I noticed about the doughnuts here was that the dough was SO CHEWY! I loved how fluffy and chewy each yeast based doughnut was and it made me want another as soon as I was done. Lemon Meringue Bismarck This was a looker! The meringue on top was just lightly toasted and added creamy texture on top of the already velvety smooth lemon filling. I loved how the tartness of the lemon contrasted against the sweetness of the meringue. I've never been a fan of filled doughnuts because I find them to be too sweet, but I've been converted! Carrot Cake Bismarck Who says you can't have carrot cake all year around? In all honesty, this was my attempt at getting a "healthier" looking doughnut but it was just as decadent as the others. Inside the fluffy carrot based dough you will find a generous helping of cream cheese filling. While it did get a little sweet towards the half way point, I wouldn't mind having it again because it was just so delish!
49th Parallel is home to Lucky's Doughnuts, my favourite doughnut shop in Metro Vancouver! They have a rotating list of flavours and are always creating new ones, and I have loved every single flavour I've tried so far. In general though, I would say the bismarcks are the best. Recently, I tried their new mocha bismarck. The yeast dough made for a plump, pillowy doughnut, which was stuffed with a silky smooth coffee pastry cream and topped with a chocolate ganache and some cookie crumbs. I thought it was superb! Usually, I go here just for the doughnuts (with the exception being during the Hot Chocolate Festival), but the last time I went I decided to get an iced chai as well. The cup was HUGE! Unfortunately, there wasn't much flavour in the drink. It reminded me of the iced chais I made at home, back in March when Vancouver was in lockdown mode, which was sad. So, in summary...doughnuts: very, very good; iced chai: meh
Whenever we have the chance, we pass the chance to get their iced oat milk mocha with their deliciously sinful donuts!! I'm in love with them!!! We always get the same ones!! It's my cheat meal!! The most delicious donuts for me and I'm not usually the sweets kinda girl! ;)
A solid coffee shop with donuts on West 4th. I love their iced lattes and all their baked goods. I enjoyed the Lemon Bismarck - it was super tasty and was not too sweet. The lemon filling was oozing, so be sure to grab extra napkins! They have ample patio space - their indoor dining was closed due to covid the last time I went. The washrooms were also closed! Not sure if they're open yet.
This is a short review as we were really looking forward to having breakfast coffee here and we walked out. We saw 49th parallel coffee but this was actually luckys donut shop. Pros- large outdoor eating area with a lot of parking close by. Overall everything looked good UNTIL we realized that they only serve donuts or gluten free bread. Even Tim Hortons has a few non donut options. While the donuts looked interesting, my partner said there was nothing he wanted to order and we left. So don't be fooled by the coffee sign, this is full on donut love.
The Venezuelan iced latte and donuts was to dieeee for. We got a chocolate sprinkled old fashioned donut and PB & Jam donut. We were just coming for coffee and saw they had Luckys donuts too and wow. We loved the coffee here and would highly recommend both their coffee and
Now, I'm not a coffee person, so this review is not about their coffee. I tried their oat chai latte previously and I was quite disappointed. All I could taste was warm oat milk. This time I tried the pistachio croissant. It wasn't as flakey as I would have liked and the pistachio filling was only in 1/4 of it. There was plenty in the quarter, however, if it were spread out more, it would be enough for half the croissant but not the whole. I do enjoy the ambiance of the cafe. That said, there are limited outlets (I only saw 1) and free wifi! A heated outdoor patio area which is great since it gets quite busy. I've tried lucky's donuts at 49th and they never disappoint! Would go back to get donuts and to study, but likely not the chai or the croissant.
This place is convenient coming from Kitsilano Beach. I parked nearby, although there is a parking space available for customers. I'm a routine customer of the one on Main and 13th. It's my first time here. It's busy. Lots of seats. They have a glass covered patio, which is a nice extension. I ordered a double shot of ice espresso. It was a warm day but needed caffeine. I like they have lots of choices of sweets and donuts and their portions are big. The tables are small though, and a bit cramped inside, unlike what I'm used to at Main St. There's also minimal wall outlets for laptops or phone charging. So make sure you have your devices charged before coming here to work or study. Outside it's walking distance from other stores snd restaurants. It's a nice commercial neighborhood. I recommend visiting it after going to the beach down the hill. read more
I am writing this review because my email to them went unanswered. I am shocked and disappointed at the way I was treated after spending $40. I am a HUGE 49th fan and love their dougnuts and coffee. Whenever I have friends in town, or someone needs a suggestion on where to visit, I always say "49th has really good coffee and doughnuts". Unfortunately, my mind has changed, and I don't see myself ever recommending this location. As an avid coffee drinker, I am pretty picky on where I choose to have coffee and love the cafe culture in Vancouver. My mom loves doughnuts and we had come all the way from Langley for a day in Kits, so I recommended we go to 49th! I spent about $40 on 4 doughnuts, 2 maple sea salt lattes and a drip coffee. The maple sea salt lattes looked beautiful and my doughnut was delicious as usual (big fan of the french crueller). Unfortunately, our maple sea salt lattes were very very strong and had no maple or sea salt flavoring in my opinion. I decided to ask the girl at the register if we could please get a different drink because it was super strong and didn't taste good. I was met with SO much attitude, i was actually shocked. I went into it very friendly and politely asked for an alternate drink as i did spend $12 on these two drinks (and life gets expensive!!). She then goes "well, you probably don't like the taste of coffee then".... I actually didn't know how to respond. But i did say "I'm a huge 49th fan and love coffee!". Then I had asked how many shots are in the small and she said "2". I then had asked if we could get a new/different drink and she goes "I'll give it to you this one time, but next time you'll have to pay." This is NOT the way to treat a paying customer. It felt so rude and accusatory. I very rarely come to Kits, so she wouldn't have recognized me and am an honest girl who works hard for my money. When the customer comes up politely, you offer to make it right. I hope the next person that comes up not satisfied with their drink is treated a lot better than how I was. read more

The coffee here is really good. It's a typical kits hipster coffee shop. All your little millennials hang out here. But I get why it's fun colorful and the staff is young and hip plus the coffee is really good. They sell a shit ton of donuts so beware!! read more

Friendly staff and clean coffee shop with lots of tables inside and outside. Mostly busy but the wait isn't too bad. Yummy donuts and good coffee. They have other locations too and it's my first time at this location. Very different vibe than the one downtown but it's more chill here. read more

I am always on the lookout for a high quality cup of coffee. I gathered from the long line this place would be good. Ordered a flat white and it did not disappoint- a very bold smooth coffee taste offset by the frothy milk. Not only did it taste good but the design on top made me not want to ruin it. Also ordered a holiday doughnut that satiated my sweet tooth. A beautiful white inside and plants for decor made me want to hang out here longer. A great spot indeed! read more
I've been meaning try these doughnuts for about 2 years ago and FINALLY got to it. I got a gingerbread old fashioned and a holiday spice latte. The old fashioned was amazing, with a thick crispy exterior and moist cakey inside, plus a generous gingerbread glaze with a strong molasses flavour. The glaze was a little messy but not drippy at all, and it was so good I didn't mind. The holiday spice latte was also delicious - way more flavourful than similar gingerbread lattes I've tried. I was very excited to try it with their hazelnut milk - the resulting drink was very creamy but I'd still be interested to try it in a plain latte or other simple drink to get a better taste of it on its own since the spices overpowered the hazelnut. The shop and people are nice - only the sunroom is open for seating right now but it's very spacious and on a nice day it would be lovely in there. They have signs on all of the tables to indicate that they've been sanitized. I think this is probably just because I visited them quite early, but they only had about half of the case filled up with doughnuts, so there were less options than I was expecting. I was of course happy with what I got and the selection was decent, but since they only sell coffee and doughnuts it would be nice to have a fuller selection. read more

First time here. Lots of people were inside the coffee shop. The line up was okay. Not too bad that we didn't have to wait too long to order. We ordered a cup of iced latte and asked for less ice. The flavour of the iced latte was great. However, the barista did not pay attention that they still put tons of ice in the cup. This coffee is located at Yew Street and West 4th Street. Great location that people can't miss it. There is street parking. We parked a couple of blocks away and walked to the coffee shop. read more

Delish! Delish! Before venturing to Canada for the first time my friend and I made a list of places to scope out and this place was on the list. My friend and I came on a Friday around noon and the place was busy. The location is in a great neighborhood with shops around. I really enjoyed the interior of the place as well and they had a great selection of donuts! I ordered an almond milk mocha with a raspberry donut. Highly recommend! read more

whenever I need a sweet treat to cheer me up, I come here. They have so many different kinds of donuts to choose from. Today I went there around 3:30, ordered the best value combo for $5.25 -a donut and a cup of drip coffee. But most of the donuts were sold out. So I decided to try the old fashioned chocolate flavour and decaf coffee, but the regular decaf was out, so the staff offer me upgrade decaf Americano. The chocolate donuts was crunchy on the outside , soft and moist inside. With the black Americano, it was a great combination . So if you want to come here , make sure to come here before noon because it's a bust place , need to wait about 10 minutes to get a seat most of the time read more
I have always gone to the Main Street location since it's the most convenient. But of course the day I don't check Instagram is the day they post that the Main Street location is closed for the day for filming! Well onto the next closest and this was it! Parking is plenty around the area, from paid lots to street side you shouldn't have an issue with that. Upon walking up to the store front you immediately get the "49th parallel" vibe with the colours and decor of the shop! Kinda feels like home to be honest with you. The one thing I noticed was this place had more of a green and outdoorsy feeling to it compared to the Main Street location which is more of a cozy vibe to it. Now of course who just goes here for the coffee right?! They are also known to have a great selection of Lucky's doughnuts! Man the selection here felt plentiful for your doughnut indulging pleasure. Of course being a coffee snob I am I got a couple cold brew crueler's, cream brûlée, and sprinkle doughnuts. And of course I HAD to try out the doughnut ice cream sandwich since it has been on my "got to try" list since it was first released! To wash it all down I just got a cold brew in a bottle. 49th parallel coffee never disappoints and it's always a treat to see what kind of doughnut selection they have for the day! read more
49th Parallel is a hip coffee spot that shares space with Lucky's Doughnuts. You can order both items at the register. Good amount of seating outside and inside. Street parking, metered. Very busy before noon, even on a Friday. Line moved decently. Coffee came out fast. Coffee, 12 oz - $2.35 Cold Brew - $4.50 read more

Great study spot if you enjoy having lots of natural lighting and fab aesthetics! This 49th location on W 4th has a little outdoor covered room (like a sun room) that's perfect for all the natural light and their WiFi service reaches out there too. I saw a few heat lamps on top so I'm sure you will feel comfortable out there in the wintertime. The only downside is that on Sunday, they didn't turn on their WiFi until 4pm and when you connect to WiFi, it's only a 2 hr limit. I guess that forces you to be productive? I got a latte and I was pleased to find they had oat milk as an alternative :) their coffee blend is more on the bright, fruity, and sour side so if this is your jam, then their coffee is for you! They also have Lucky's doughnuts - they have a wonderful variety of donuts - I liked the creme brulee or rhubarb one the most. read more
I went in for a cold brew today and I loved it. It was smooth and the glass bottle gave me a lot. I also got a donut, the mulberry old fashioned. It was very tasty. Together that only cost me $5.75. I also asked for some hazelnut milk on the side which I never heard off definitely a hit. I would totally come again. read more
3.5 stars... it's a great spot with a lot of beautiful light and Lucky doughnuts available! Coffee and doughnuts? sold! I've read and seen the pictures of this place and when we arrived on a sunny Saturday, it was even better. It's so airy and modern with the nice solarium bringing in all the nice warm sun. If you ever want to get that perfect instagram shot of a latte art, this would be your spot. The cafe itself is a decent sized spot but not as many table spots as I thought. Most of the space is dedicated to the barista station, line up, and incredible display of Lucky Doughnuts. Even though there was a constant line up, there were a few tables available for a Saturday afternoon. I think most tables though was filled with someone with a laptop. I guess Vancouver is no different from Toronto with the laptop horde. Service here is quick and thats a good thing cause the line up was constant. I dont think I saw it ever go down beyond 4 people. They're quite helpful as well to answer any questions you might have with the doughnuts (which is so damn hard to choose just one!) and their espresso menu. Though they show their tea and daily bean menu, they dont have a menu with their full offering of espresso based drinks so you may need to check if they do a particular drink. I asked about my fav flat white. I wrote another review for Lucky Doughnuts and they were just so good. Come here first thing in the morning and you'll be rewarded with fluffy, delicious, and flavourful doughnuts. Honestly one of the better ones I've had across Canada. Grab a strawberry glazed old fashioned or a blueberry lavendar filled with earl grey custard... just... so... good. Their lemon meringue one looks ridiculously decadent. They're an easy 4 stars. Flat White - It wasn't a bad drink but it was really acidic for my preference... more so than any other one I've had in Vancouver all week. It wasn't even fruit forward or tart notes either... I wouldnt say it tasted off but it wasn't really pleasant. It's almost as if the balance of the milk to espresso was off. There wasn't any the creaminess to round off the edge of the espresso in a traditional flat white. I found the foam on top a bit more like a cappuccino. Instead of a microfoam, it definitely was frothy and more plentiful as if scooped in. Maybe they heard the order wrong but I dont think this was a proper flat white. 3.5/5 Gorgeous spot with some seriously good doughnuts and if I'm even back in Vancouver, I wouldn't hesitate to snag another doughnut but perhaps I may try the other coffee spots nearby. read more

I love this place! The staff are so friendly, the espresso-based beverages are pretty good though somewhat astringent, and they have Lucky Doughnuts! I was indecisive about my choice of donut and they helped. Thank you in helping me make that very important life decision. Their interior (and exterior) design, as well as their branding, is absolutely top notch. Such a beautiful decor, with marble tables, some green outside, the patio atmosphere... Loved it. They really went the extra mile in that respect. All of us basic B's who love photographing latte art, this is definitely the place to do it. I wish we had a coffee shop with such a beautiful outdoor space in Toronto! (and if someone is reading this and thinks we do, hit me up and tell me about it!) read more

I've had several meetings here - and every person who suggests this place talks about the donuts - Lucky's! SO good. And I'm not even traditionally a donut fan The coffee has always been great and the staff is always accommodating and friendly. This visit, when I saw the jumbo cup o asked if they made lattes in there they said that traditionally they don't but that they would make one for me. Latte heaven! My friend ordered something lovely but I can't remember what it was because I was focussed on my own deliciousness. An orange and pistachio old fashioned. That's right. The most boring looking donut on the wall. If you asked me to name my top 100 donut flavors that wouldn't have been on my radar. But it called out to me and I loved it! Although I must admit the Wan eating the tiramisu donut beside me almost made me go up for a second! And those blue cups always make me happy! Sorry to the young ladies on either side of us studying - we talked a lot!! read more
Great locations. Of course no free parking, its in Vancouver. Well there is a parking lot beside it but its not free. Place is quite busy. They have indoor seating and an extended area that is kind of outdoor but enclosed. Yes that enclosed area is heated. The place is quite cold. So your drink will cool very fast in the winter time. I ordered a tea. Can't remember which kind. There are three kind of tea on the list and I picked the one in the middle. It is loose leaf tea and it was not bad for $3.50. If I came earlier, I would have picked a latte instead of tea. But it was getting late in the day. Great seating. Not too loud and have to say the place is great for a good conversation. There is free wifi but its not fast. Will come again. read more
This place really never dissapoints and always consistent. All you iced coffee lovers will have to try their Venezuelan Iced Coffee - comes unsweetened and you can add sugar cane syrup at condiments table. I recommend 2.5 pumps. The best iced coffee since I came here for the first time 6 years ago. They also have so many choices of donuts and loaves. All of them are worth trying. Prices are fair since they are made fresh and you cant get them any where else. Great place to catch up with a friend. Quite noisy, not really a place to study unless you have you headphones on. They have free WIFI! They also maintain cleanliness. There is not a time I feel they are ever unsanitary. Their baristas are all so good at what they do. Sometimes line ups are long but orders are cleared up swiftly as well. This place has lots of natural light. Love this place rather than the one at Main St. Free parking nearby if you are lucky or they have lots of pay parking nearby. If you havent visit, you should if you are in the area! read more
