I did not try apple fritter, I was told it was just ok, but, it was large portion. Chocolate babka was too sweet. Dough was crispy outside which was good, but inside was a bit dry and overly sweet. Iced cafe latte was very delicious! Sweetness was perfect with bold coffee flavor. Next time, we want to try different items, especially cakes looked great

What a hidden gem on the E. Hastings strip. Pennyroyal Coffee is a simple yet classy cafe. The…read morefacade is very clean and proper, as is the inside. The interior is well laid out with stool window seats, small tables along the walls, and a gorgeous wooden table at the end. The walls are professionally decorated with framed shots by local photographers. On to the star of the show...the coffee. I started with shot of potent espresso topped with oat milk. What a heavenly combo that was! I took the time to slowly savour each sip. They're not just about coffee, despite the name. The Jasmine loose leaf tea is very fragrant and provides a very nice alternative to those who prefer tea. Feeling a bit hungry, I added an almond croissant produced by a local bakery nearby. I love how this indie is supporting his own local businesses. Better yet, the croissant was sooooo nice right to the last bite....and of course, I scraped up all the crumbs and enjoyed that just as much. Lastly, the owner who took over the shop this summer is a gentleman. He knows his coffee!! I hope everyone in the area will keep supporting the Indies.

This place has brunch and sandwich items too, though I didn't try. Definitely worth checking out if one is in the area. Recommended.

I wanted a small latte but their smallest size was a 12 oz, so he suggested an 8 oz flat white. I agreed and it was a good decision because it was just the right size for me (8 oz) and it was excellent! Great vibe, clean place and very friendly staff.

It served a variety of beans both from Canada and from Japan and Korea and the barista took great care to explain all the different tasting notes to help me choose one that would fit my tasting profile. I ended up deciding to get a pourover from Japan and it definitely did not disappoint. Very friendly staff, great coffee, would highly recommend if you are a coffee/pourover fan.

First of all, this is likely one of the very the most expensive coffee in Vancouver. Seating is…read morelimited. One time I enjoyed a $10 cup of small coffee, and I even bought a bag if beans. The next time, it was disappointing at a similar price point for an unenjoyable small cup, and when I shared i didn't like it that much and asked if I could try anything else without paying almost anothe $10, if I was willing to buy a bag of one I like, and the answer was no. They hardly had any customers there either so that's not an excuse. I appeared it was being too cheap and bad judgement, and it cost them further business from me since. Penny wise and pound foolish. Akso the shared bathroom in the building here is gross. The rest of the review is similar to another expensive coffee shop in the city that shares a poor business practice with this place. Totally unacceptable and irresponsible to me when a business has no listed phone number to contact them for any important reasons during business hours. Ther are not following traditional good service tradition in this country and continent, and being available during business hours is important. What if there was an emergency or if it could save a customer an unnecessary trip, or what if it brought more business there instead of going elsewhere? Not everyone wants to communicate asynchronous by Instagram messages only. How about some human connection and service if you open uo a public facing business? Big problem for me.i found another place with more reasonable priced great coffee and they have a phone too, so my business goes there.

The staff are friendly, the coffee was good but the place is very dimly lit, it feels narrow inside and The reason for the lower star is because there is no washroom or at least none provided. They told us to go to Havana restaurant down the street to use that restaurant's washroom. Felt weird going to another place to ask to use the washroom. I never thought a coffee shop wouldn't have a washroom for their customers. Maybe there was an issue, if they had a washroom but I didn't see anywhere you could go, to go to a washroom. Their counter pretty much covers the whole back of the place.
