    Inside

    Echo Cafe is a welcome addition to the North Van community. It has a great modern ambiance with lots of bright colour accent lounge chairs. The seating layout is conducive to socializing and enjoying a light brunch meal (like avocado toast, ham cheese on bread, Persian omelette, soup) with your drink and a slice of cake.

    The avocado toast and fried egg was delicious. Salad was fine. I really enjoyed the chai latte I had and the restaurant was clean. The service was quite slow for us.

    Coconut iced coffee

    This coffee house is huge and very nice. The staff were very friendly. Oddly, we came on a Sunday, and it was completely dead besides one other person that came in after us. It's noticeable because this place is big. I ordered a coconut iced coffee that had little bits of milk floating in it...old oat milk? I'm not sure. It didn't taste like coconut at all. It was meh. I didn't take it back...I just decided to drink it lol. My friend enjoyed her coffee. I thought the ambiance was very nice. Perhaps I would go back and try something else if I was in the area. They make smoothies as well, so maybe I'd try that.

    Classic Avo Toast w/ side of Mushroom Soup
    Vicki S.

    Like a lot of people these days, I'm a huge fan of Avocado Toast and regularly make it at home, especially since it's so easy and you can make it as simple or as fancy as you want without spending too much money. While in Vancouver BC this past weekend, we treated ourselves to some Avocado Toast, pastries, and coffee. We found ECHO CAFÉ on Yelp in North Vancouver near our Airbnb rental. The sweetest cashier immediately greeted us with an enthusiastic and super welcoming "Happy Sunny Day!" Her cheery personality was so infectious, it immediately put us in a more perky mood. We got a North Shore Avo Toast w/ a side salad, a Classic Avo Toast w/ Mushroom Soup (plus, an extra complimentary soup from the friendly Cashier), Spinach Feta Croissant, Apple Strudel, and Chocolate Croissant. For drinks, we got Vanilla Lattes and a Green Tea Matcha Latte. The food all tasted amazing and our drinks were just good and not the best. The Barista could step up her foam art game as well. We found a comfortable spot and had a nice time enjoying our delicious food. The Cashier and service were both excellent. There's a decent amount of seating and the café has tall ceilings and large windows to help make it light and bright inside. I'd totally come back here!

    This lovely cafe is in my neighbourhood. My husband and I go there for morning coffee on our day off. The patio is nice and clean. Enjoy a cup of oat milk coffee in the mountainous morning breeze is wonderful way to start a new day. They do serve breakfast along with the drink. There is always a long waiting line even it is only 8 AM, which is a proof that Echo is the favorite spot of a lot of people.

    Very cute cafe, and very covid safe !! The capacity is very limited, however I was lucky to get a seat. I ordered a London fog and it was great. The space is very aesthetic, and you can tell immediately how sanitary it is. Will visit again when I am in the area!

    This cafe is a hidden gem tucked away on the side-street of Lonsdale. The environment is very clean and cozy, as well as comfortable with not too loud music and very friendly staff and great costumer service. They have a wide selection of drinks and yummy pastries :)

    Chicken Pesto Panini
    Becky K.

    A great cafe for relaxing, coffee and food. They had an array of choices for food and were quite helpful with letting you take your time. The chicken pesto panini is a classic there. The BELT was delicious! Comes on an everything bagel. Cold brew was delicious, dirty chai was great! If I was a local, I could see myself coming there quite often. They had really tiny cookies there too that I forgot to grab, so if you go based on this short review, get yourself a tiny cookie there!

    Cute spacious cafe in North Vancouver that serves a variety of pastries, sandwiches, tea, coffee, and hightea. Came here recently to try out their hightea and they had a really nice selection of sandwiches (included 2 croissant sandwich and a cucumber sandwich and egg sandwich), tomato quiche, blueberry tart, mini scones, shortbread, chocolate dipped strawberries. There were about 10 teas to choose from and is included in the hightea set - the creamy earl grey was very fragrant! The staff were very friendly, they checked up on us often and took the time to explain each item in the hightea set. The hightea set was priced very decent at $25. Overall a great place to go for hightea in North Vancouver neighborhood.

    Hazelnut cappuccino
    Neha D S.

    I walked in at 9 am, in a complete haze...sleepy grumpy and desperately in need of my morning caffeine fix... To be greeted by one of the sweetest servers/ cashier's I've met! She not only patiently waited for me to sort my muddled thoughts and pic a coffee but was very forthcoming with sugar free options....full props for her sympathy for my having to be off it and an adorable " coz you're sweet enough!" Quip! Went with a hazelnut cappuccino and I'm happy to report it was yummy. The place is a comforting mix of rustic and contemporary...feeling modern and airy yet a place where you could claim a corner and settle in for a bit. The food display looked interesting and they have an interesting mix of coffees too... I'll be back for more... If nothing else than for the wonderful service!

    S'wich Cafe - Spicy Italian with multigrain bread

    The best sandwiches! Bar none! I grab a sandwich there once a week…read more Gradually making my way through the entire menu lol. Really friendly staff and quick service. Has a small seating area, but I usually do takeout.

    Ambiance and Decor I visited this café and sandwich shop on…read morea Friday afternoon during the lunch rush. It's a small, homey place with simple décor. The lighting isn't the best, as the staff mostly rely on the large entrance window for natural light. Service Quality The staff was kind and friendly. They are more than happy to help you choose a sandwich if it's your first time. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Menu Variety Their sandwich selection is excellent, and the bread is particularly noteworthy. They also offer a couple of iced tea options, which is a nice alternative to water. Food Presentation If you're dining in, your sandwich will be served in a plastic basket lined with wax paper. For takeout, it's wrapped in the same wax paper. Food Taste and Quality I ordered the Spicy Italian, which had just the right amount of heat. It was generously loaded with greens, and the multigrain bread was fresh, likely baked that morning. Portion Sizes The portions are substantial. I was only able to finish half of my sandwich for lunch. Price and Value The sandwich cost about $15, which is on the pricier side. It would have been nice to see it priced around $12. Overall Experience and Recommendation If you're in the area or heading to Horseshoe Bay to catch a ferry, definitely stop by S'wich for a sandwich. I will definitely be returning to try other options on the menu.

    Inflation does not exist in one of the few places of the world here at Burgoo. The food is top…read morequality with great ingredients at a price that cannot be beat anywhere else. Make sure you try the lobster bisque as it's one of the meatiest I've had to date; full of that shellfish flavour. The French onion soup is an eye catcher but the broth could use a bit more richness and flavour. Beef bourignon was suggested and I'm glad I took the friendly waitress' recommendation as it was a warm hug on a deep plate. I'd opt to swap for roasted potatoes instead of the mash but the mash does soak up all that delicious stew. The jambalaya is full of different proteins and if you're a fan of that, then I'd make sure to eat this perfectly cooked rice dish. I finished off with a banana bread pudding which was exactly that, banana bread in that bread pudding form; Personally I was hoping for bread pudding that was banana flavoured but it was still ooey gooey goodness. Burgoo should be packed to the brim with this menu for these prices and the friendliness of the staff!

    We have been frequenting this place since long before Covid, but have never reviewed for some…read morereason. We must like it, we even bought their cookbook to try some of the recipes, especially the Fondumental, which dragged us back there again and again. It wasn't nearly as plentiful or as yummy as we remembered it, but it's still good. The sandwiches and soups have always been rib sticking and tasty. The ambiance has remained the same over the years, a little dark, but the fireplace and the vintage posters are cool. Our server Gary was excellent, Johnny on the spot with all that we were looking for. Their wine and beer is all local, which is a thing these days. My lobster bisque with the FAB salad hit the spot, and the bread piece was exceptional. The lovely K had the onion soup which she liked although said it could use a little more salt. If you want to enjoy a hearty meal on the North Shore down by the water, but not on the water, give it a try, you will not be disappointed!
