Quick, fresh, lots of varieties and open 24/7. We ordered apple pie chia pudding, spinach egg tart, and raspberry scone. All were delicious! The spolie chia pudding has chunks of canned apple and walnut. It was surprisingly good. Service was quick. They have a small seating area. read more

Of all the Brekas I've been to - and I've been to a lot, as I'm a huge fan! - this one is my least favorite. I was meeting a friend here yesterday who's visiting from California, and when deciding on a meeting place, we realized a bunch of the Gastown coffee roaster places were closed on Sunday, so I mentioned Breka , knowing it was opened 24/7. (LOVE this!). Plus, this site is close to Waterfront Station, and my friend had a busy day planned, taking the Seabus to N.Van and doing a lot of sightseeing. So this Breka was perfect. I was there early at 10 am-ish, and from the outset, I was impressed: exposed brick wall, long counter and display case, fully stocked with the most beautiful pastries and tarts and cakes, and lovely looking sandwiches, too....Just lovely. I ordered a tea from the guy taking the orders. At the check-out, the woman working the cashier was the most unfriendly, aloof person I have ever encountered at a Breka. She was downright dour. Never looked up, never smiled, said I owed X for the tea I ordered, gave me a receipt and said I was "number 3", no "thank you" (despite my saying thanks!), nothing. She looked really unhappy and bothered to be there. (I sat at a nearby table, waiting for my number to be called. I saw her interactions with all the people behind me - and there were quite a few, as it got suddenly busy in the cafe. She was cold and unfriendly to everyone in line as she rang them all up. These are mostly tourists! Why have a dour, borderline-hostile woman at the check-out counter of a busy cafe in a touristy part of our city? I just don't get it). Anyhow, I waited 10 minutes to hear my number called, but I never heard it. I walked up to the take-out area and there was my tea, on a receipt that said "number 3". Did they call out my number? I honestly don't know. I was seated at a table a few feet from the area and listening for my number and I didn't hear it called. I was not impressed with this set-up. Not at all. My friend arrived and got a chocolate concoction which looked amazing, and he loved it, so there's that. I still love Brekas but I probably won't return to this site. Between the cold experience at the cash and the prolonged waiting for my order (a cup of tea!), and not being sure if my order number was ever called, it just all left me with a bitter taste in my mouth. read more

Bakery/cafe in downtown open 24/7!! What an AMAZING find! Great variety of items and everything was so delicious! Friendly staff. Quick service. We got takeout at 9PM because there weren't any seats available for my party of 4. Wooden utensils so it's nice there wasn't plasticware. Reasonable prices IMO. read more

Breka Bakery & Cafe - Mango mousse. Chocolate kalua mousse. Strawberry Shortcake - Bakeries Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Went here on a Saturday morning and it was packed. There was a short line to order but there were plenty of people sitting at every table and there was a short wait for my food and drink after ordering White chocolate mocha latte: 2/5 the coffee flavor on this was pretty strong which I didn't love as someone who likes really sweet lattes. I also didn't like that you could barely taste any white chocolate flavor at all Pistachio filled donut: 3/5 this was decent, lots of cream on the top and the inside. It was too sweet for me though Cretzel ham and cheese melt: 4/5 this was my favorite item here. They even warmed it up and cut it in half. I also like that it came with a pickle The other food looked really good too and I would've been willing to go back to try food or the smoothies if I was in town longer. It's also cool that this place is open 24/7 which is pretty rare read more

Brekka Bakery is an absolute must-visit in Vancouver! Everything we tried was fresh and delicious, from the buttery scones to the pastries and expertly made coffee. The menu has so many tempting options that it's hard to choose just one. I only wish I had more time in Vancouver so I could have gone back to try even more. Definitely a bakery I'll be visiting again on my next trip! read more

Loved the tiramisu and matcha cheesecake. We also got the lychee rose tea which was very light and refreshing. The main thing that stands out is that this bakery is 24 hours. We went at 12am when we just landed in Vancouver since nowhere else was open and we were not disappointed. Even late at night the place is crowded it took us a little while to get seats inside. read more

Breka was one of my favorite things about visiting Vancouver. It was so good we ate breakfast there every day. The staff was friendly, the food was delicious, and it is such a cute place. I can't wait for my next trip so I can go back. read more

It does get really busy during peak hours and seating is actually quite limited so it's better to get things to go from my experience. And also not a spot for huge groups of people. Otherwise I love how it's 24 hrs and their huge selection! Service was nice I thought and the pastries and baked goods are also quite nice. read more

Open 24 hours! Lots of seating and variety of foods, drinks, and desserts to choose from. Busy place due to proximity to the light rail & Waterfront. Loud, boisterous, and very lively with people competing with the music & comings/goings of customers. I quite enjoy their cookies and cold brew coffee, cheap and yummy! read more

Breka Bakery & Cafe - Croissants, Sandwiches, Muffins, Strudels - Bakeries Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Breka Bakery is a great choice when stopping by for a treat- a cozy atmosphere, quick and friendly service, and delicious baked goods. I like that they are open 24 hours. On this visit I chose a mango passionfruit filled donut. The dough was soft and the filling was flavourful. The coconut shavings on the top added to the taste. It was a very large and filling donut, and worth the price I paid. Highly recommended! read more

Date of visit: July 16, 2025 When looking for alternatives to the crazy expensive hotel breakfast, I stumbled across this 24-hour gem, and I am so glad I did! It always seems to be busy, which is really the hallmark of a great restaurant, and the quality of the food and staff friendliness drives that point home. Staff use tablets to take your order at the counter, which is good because there are so many items you want to try that you keep adding things as you go down the line. I went with a ham and cheese cretzel, and it. Was. Fantastic. For dessert I added a Vanilla Donut Bite and I am hard-pressed to think of a better way to finish a meal, the slight crunch on the outside mixing with the soft vanilla underbelly. I also tried a bite of my mom's maple donut, and that was also fantastic. read more

The Green Tea Eclair and Earl Gray Eclair omg. That's all you need here. They were so good I came back twice during my 4 days in the area to get those. Love the layout, love the service, love the hours here, and more than one location. There are so many treats to choose from here too. Also had some coffee - pretty good. But the cream in those eclairs - wow. read more

Breka's sandwiches are affordable, heartwarming and delicious. It is my go-to lunch when I need to work in the area. Even though it is a chained bakery, Breka is still able to uphold their great quality. I usually get takeaway from them, but if I have time, I'd prefer dining in to enjoy their relaxing environment! read more

Breka Bakery & Cafe - Chicken salad sandwich - Bakeries Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Visiting Vancouver and looking for a place for lunch. This place is known for it's pastries, but they also have good selection of sandwiches and soup. It was Monday, around 1:30pm and there was a line when we got there. The line moved reasonably quick, when you got in front of the pastry case there was someone their to take your order. (it had the hurried pace of some delis that I have eaten at). The place was crowded, but we did manage to snag a small table, which was a bit tight for the 3 of us. We ordered, Spinach and Artichoke Pocket, Vegetable Soup, and a couple Tuna Melts. They heated the Pocket, with a Panini Press (not my favorite method), so the entire sandwich was a little too dense for my liking. (It did have good flavor). The Tuna Melts were also heated in a similar way but they were on bread. They were also good too. The desserts looked very impressive, but were too full to try. Next time? It's a decent place for food, but not an especially relaxing atmosphere. read more

Can't believe this place has so many good reviews. Our experience was chaos. This cafe is near the cruise terminal and if you are visiting near on a day when ships are arriving or departing you can expect the same. Nowhere to sit. Crowded and we waited a long time for our food which was made one item at a time. The display looks gorgeous but don't be fooled. We had a matcha cream puff pastry which was frozen inside which leads me to believe the items are not made fresh. The almond croissant tasted stale. Coffee and lattes were good however and the toasted ham and cheese sandwich was also good. TLDR: Ambience: crowded. FOOD: Average. I'd have preferred we stopped elsewhere. read more

This place was so good we went back everyday. The prices are reasonable but the taste is fire.

Great, beautiful, delicious selection!! reasonable prices and efficient check-out. PLUS always open ?!?!?! Crazy

Chocolate ganache cake- 3 stars Strawberry shortcake- 2 stars Chocolate chip cookie- 3 stars The workers were not very friendly. read more

Friendly and super fast service since they were quite busy. Matcha isn't too sweet but good enough. Prob needs a little more matcha flavor. It's very light and I would prefer to have a stronger matcha flavor/taste. There were plenty of bakeries and pastries as well as a huge selection of donuts. Everything seems fresh and reasonably priced. Place is bright and clean. Has some seating area. Was there in the morning and it seems to draw a good crowd. read more

Came here for a quick snack before dinner elsewhere and were reminded why Breka is such a Vancouver staple. The space is open, bright, and spacious, though very busy. Despite the crowd, we managed to find seating within 2-3 minutes, which felt like a small miracle. We ordered: * White mocha - deliciously sweet and comforting * Ham & cheese pretzel, panini-pressed and served with a pickle - satisfying, salty, and something I'd absolutely order again * Two donuts: * Strawberry donut was solid * Condensed milk donut had too much filling for our taste and became a bit overwhelming Overall, this is a reliable 4/5. Great for catching up with a friend or grabbing a bite on the go, but probably not my first choice for working solo due to how busy and lively it gets. read more

Great place to grab breakfast when in Vancouver. The apple fritter was delicious!! Great vibe inside as well to hang out with a cup of coffee or tea. read more

Excellent bakery and coffee shop, but offers a wide variety of sweet and also savory pastries. It's also great that they are open 24 hours, so you can definitely get your snack fix. Throughout the day, there always seems to be a line, but it moves fast and efficient. The line actually gives you time to figure out what you want to order. Good to know this place will always be available whenever I come visit Vancouver. read more

Delicious desserts! I've tried their cookies, doughnuts and cakes and they are all so good and decadent. A sure crowd pleaser!

Wonderful bakery/cafe with a great selection of baked goods, coffee drinks and even sandwiches. They go through the line pretty efficiently taking peoples orders before you get to the register. Even for it being somewhat busy, we got through fairly quickly. Everyone was really nice and helpful. The place was a little small for seating but we managed to get a table. If you're looking for a coffee and a delicious pastry come to Breka Bakery and Cafe. read more

One of my fave cafes in downtown. Popped in for breakfast and had a perfect coffee, and tried a few different sweet pastries. Also the breakfast egg sandwich on the croissant. Everything was phenomenal. In case you aren't feeling something sweet they also have savory sandwiches and salads. The inside is super cute and there are small tables throughout. It was a beautiful day in Vancouver so I do wish they had outdoor seating but not a biggie. I also love that this place is 24/7 as I have come to realize many establishments close down earlier than I am used to. read more

The biggest perks of this bakery is that they're open 24/7 and the second one is that they have so many sweet and savory treats that you can enjoy. And the third one is that the taste and quality of the treats are very good. We came here on an evening and ordered coffee with some delicious desserts and enjoyed them. Then we ordered some breakfast sandwiches and croissants for takeout. I strongly recommend "Ham & Cheese Melt" and "Chocolate & Almond Croissant". The service is fast and it's a good place to bring your laptop and work or enjoy small get-togethers. read more

I come here every time I'm in Vancouver. It gets crowded around 9am and there's a line. The service staff is efficient but it's awful for someone like me who is unsure what to choose. I had the matcha and Earl Grey puffs boxed up to take to go to my work, and decided to eat the sandwich and oat milk latte inside the store. They do heat up sandwiches for you but I had to check the counter as I couldn't hear the staff. Also The area around the drinks counter was crowded and I was waiting for my number but couldn't hear the staff. I understand that it's crowded because it's a popular place, but it's not a relaxing place at all. I recommend the matcha puffs and the Cretzel ham & cheese melt. I'm grateful to BREKA for being open 24 hours. read more

Breka Bakery & Cafe - Strawberry Banana Smoothie (16oz) New York Cheesecake (GF) - Bakeries Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Breka is a popular Vancouver spot for coffee, bread, donuts, and pastries. They have 7 locations that are open 24/7/365. This location is quite busy. Around 9am on a weekday there was a line. However it moved quickly, but not too quickly that you didn't have time to examine their beautiful display case stuffed full of pastries. The cafe space here is very modern, with tall ceilings and sleek black bench booths. The pickup area where you wait for your items is awkward and crowded - it would be nice if they figured out a better system for this. I got a matcha cream puff, egg bites, and a coffee. The cream puff was huge and tasted delicious. The other two were more normal and I would probably not re-order them. So I guess the moral of the story is when you go to Breka, choose to indulge. read more

Saw several people on the streets with Breka bags so had to check it out. Got donuts, crème puff, red velvet and a cherry loaf. All delectable goodness. Took them to go but they didn't make it far. Had a small area to eat in but they were busy and all tables were full. read more
