The food there was amazing and there was a HUGE variety to choose from along with many drink options and substitutions. The matcha basque cheesecake was heavenly to bite into with a mild matcha flavour that isn't too overpowering for those looking for their first matcha dessert to try. The pistachio cream donut was filled with creamy sweet pistachio filling with pistachios and glazed with a shiny pistachio icing that made bells ring in my ears when I took a bite out of the pillowy soft dough. The apple fritter was HUGE and very filling with nice soft pieces of apple and a piece of cinnamon heaven in every single bite. The peach iced tea was nice and soothing when paired with the oolong and not sweet at all for those who are looking for something to balance out the sweetness from the desserts. The service was also impeccable as the cashier was very friendly and all the workers had big smiles on their faces. When asking for extra plates to plate up our desserts, the staff member that supplied us the plates was kind and immediately brought us our plates. I recommend this little bakery spot to anyone in the Kits area after a nice day at the beach or something to hold them off while doing endless shopping along W 4th. The bakery is also open 24 hours for anyone having a late night craving for a hefty savoury sandwich or those looking for something sweet to start their day early in the morning. Overall experience was a 10/10 and will definetly be checking out the other locations in the Vancouver area.

We didn't stick around as we were on our way to the Pacific Spirit Regional Park trails. However, the setting of the café was enchanting enough for me to come back with my husband two days later for Sunday breakfast. We ordered our americanos, breakfast croissant, and breakfast sandwich and found a table in the courtyard outside the chalet-looking building of the café. There is small park in the courtyard along with about half a dozen tables. It was still rather early on a Sunday morning before 0930. It was quiet but neighbours were starting to emerge for their morning coffees, yoga stretches and dog walks. The americanos were rich. Good sign before we tasted our coffee: they were not served in mugs, foamy, and dark. Our croissant and English muffin sandwiches were pressed. My croissant had cheese and turkey slices with an addictive spicy jam. The English muffin halves of his egg and ham sandwiches were so pressed that they did not resemble English muffins. However, he said it was so good with its texture, greasiness and flavours. I think I'm going to get that next time.

Rather than microwaved fare, the breakfast sandwiches appeared to be more made-on-the-spot. We tried and loved the Brie/Apple croissant, the vege breakfast sandwich, and the Chicken Panini sandwiches. The coffee was very good, but most caffès make good espresso drinks now. The ambiance is wonderful if you enjoy large windows, sunlight, modern decor, and a generous patio with tables, chairs, sofa seating, and sofas. Service with a smile - can't go wrong with that these days. A great place to fuel up for the day.

The barista was very friendly and eager to talk about the menu. She checked to make sure my drink was sweet enough when she gave it to me and asked how everything was as I was leaving. Asparagus & asiago quiche: The quiche itself was okay - I liked the flavour but it kind of had the reheated texture - but they put some fresh arugula and black pepper on top which was very nice. Mocha cookie: Top tier cookie. Nice coffee flavour, not too sweet, perfectly crispy but not crunchy. Lychee latte: Just steamed milk and lychee flavour, no espresso. I asked for half sweet, and there was just enough lychee flavour to get the essence of lychee without making it a very sweet drink. Although I didn't try the coffee, this does seem like a good place for coffee nerds. They have different varieties of brewed coffee you can try in store and beans for sale.

I worked in a high-end artisan coffee shop for years and we had everything shipped in every morning. So you can see Bruno has thought of every detail and has successfully poured his life into creating this cheerful gathering place for the neighborhood and it's passers by. They are lucky to have this place! We will definitely be back to try more of Bruno's baking.
