    Iced Hawaii latte, Matcha latte and macaron
    Tiff R.

    The iced Hawaiian latte tasted like regular iced coffee with a hint of hazelnut. It needed more hazelnut flavour and it was too sweet for me. The matcha latte was good but nothing stood out in particular. The macaron was not good (it was dry) and would not order again. The cafe interior was very aesthetic and reminded us of the Honolulu coffee in Hawaii, there was space to sit and enjoy your drinks. The space is pretty small so we had to wait for seats. They also had a variety of crossiants that looked really good, would go back to try the pastries next time.

    Honolulu Coffee always offers unique and delicious limited items for the Hot Chocolate Festival. This time, I revisited for their 2025 festival special. #093 - Kim's Berry A vegan hot chocolate crafted with rich 70% dark chocolate, creamy oat milk, aromatic strawberry, and fermented Korean gochujang, adding a subtle spice. Paired with a delectable vegan strawberry cookie. This one is the best! First, I could taste the whipped cream on top, which was slightly firmer than other shops'--just how I like it. The freeze-dried strawberry crunch on top was a good match. The hot chocolate itself was perfectly creamy and sweet, with a subtle gochujang spice that wasn't overpowering--just perfect again. It was very delicious! The presentation was so pretty--definitely eye-catching on Instagram. The cookie was good, too! I always enjoy Honolulu Coffee's limited item ideas and unique ingredients. They also offer a variety of regular drinks and baked goods. The ambience is very cozy--perfect for meeting friends or simply enjoying a drink and some food.

    I was in need of an afternoon pick me up, so I stopped here because of the high reviews. I ordered a matcha latte and loved how strong the matcha flavor was in it. I'm also a sucker for aesthetic coffee so I appreciated the latte art on it as well. With how strong the matcha flavor was, I expected to be decently caffeinated, however, unfortunately, I felt like the drink barely woke me up. Overall, I'd give taste and aesthetics a 10/10, however, if you're looking to actually be caffeinated, I'd pass on this. The coffee itself is actually pretty large and very aesthetic! I like how bright everything was and the Hawaii theme that they had going on. The baristas here were friendly and our drinks came out pretty quickly. There was plenty of seating when I went and I think that this would be a great place to study or catch up with a friend.

    I went there with my friends and there were four types of açai bowls. The taste was rich

    I've had Honolulu Cafe while I was in Oahu, so I was surprised to see there was one in BC when I was looking for some matcha! It was very busy. The line moved fast to order, but the wait time was maybe about 10-15 which wasn't terrible. It was fairly quiet inside when we went, we were there around 10 am or so. My matcha tasted great! Good ratio of matcha to milk and not too frothy. I was quite satisfied, I'd been looking for matcha! I wish they had the menu items like poke bowls like on the island, but that's just a personal wish :)

    Ube Cream Cheese Muffin is a must try. Delicious and beautiful! The service was warm & friendly. It was especially convenient and close to the Sheraton where we were staying.

    What a treat to get a piece of Hawaii in Vancouver. They had local flavors and had the Hawaiian vibes. With delightful pastries, small bites, coffee and drinks for all. The place was spacious and clean. Where everywhere had long lanes in the rain they were hustling slinging orders with minimal turnover time. This was perfect for my morning walk, hungry and cold. All the details in the drinks to the cups were absolutely adorable.

    As seen in the image, the colors are different despite being the same HL drink.

    Disappointing that today is not my day for coffee. I'm also quite disappointed that service was just barely a sliver above okay. I ordered 2 iced Hawaiian lattes (one with oat milk and one regular), and a Hawaiian cream cold brew. The cold brew was extremely sour, and not what I expected. I hate asking for a redo, but I honestly feel most places would offer to make a different drink for me, but the baristas only offered to add more cream to the cold brew. (No cream will really fix sour in my opinion.) That was a half attempt on their part to make it right. I went ahead and ordered a Hawaiian latte with oat milk and felt this still missed the mark. I took a picture of my friend's Hawaiian latte with oat milk compared to mine. As seen in the image, the colors are different despite being the same drink. There isn't consistency. In the end, one of the baristas did add an extra shot of espresso for me free of charge, but by then, I felt my impression was already colored after having purchased a total of 4 drinks. The place was clean, but I don't see myself coming back.

    Honolulu Coffee has the perfect lofi coffee shop vibe. There's chairs and benches of all kinds, a long communal table, and large windows to lounge by, rain or shine. The Hawaiian latte is delicious and you can absolutely taste the macadamia nuts. Whole beans are sold on a shelf next to the register in case you want to brew it at home. The service is speedy and friendly, even during a morning rush, and there's tons of seating if you'd prefer not to stand while waiting for your order.

    Coffee bar, not located in a high traffic area, but very busy on a Sunday afternoon, so people are coming here to hang out. It is located within downtown Vancouver, and was within walking distance of our hotel. It has very comfortable seating throughout, and there was a wide variety of ages and ethnicity hanging out. There were only two baristas working, so waiting was mandatory, but one of them prepared my wife's Hawaiian Latte ($6.30) really quickly once the order was placed. Hawaiian = macadamia nut coffee with coconut milk. she really liked it. Unfortunately for me, the free wi-fi refused to work, no matter what I tried. They do sell 100% Kona coffee at the expected high prices.

    Cute place with great coffee and açaí bowls. Pastries are a little dry and a bit mid, but overall it's a nice place. Love that you can get a good Kona roast here.

    Nice big spacious coffee shop in the heart of downtonwn. Parking here sucks unfortunately. The place looks pretty modern, and has a nice tropical theme thanks to some murals on the wall. Staff are friendly. The coffee is pretty tasty. Not sure how authentic their coffee is, but it's decent.

    Spicy hot chocolate? Yes, please! @honolulucoffeeyvr is back with their Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival creations, and this iconic cafe did not disappoint! Kim's Berry - A spicy gochujang strawberry hot chocolate with oat milk & 70% dark chocolate Floral Glow - A citrus guava hot chocolate that's like biting into a juicy chocolate orange Both are served with the softest vegan strawberry & orange almond cookies for the ultimate dunking experience! My personal fav was the Kim's Berry which was so unexpected! The sweet strawberry notes ended with a small kick of heat that was just perfect.

    I think it was one of those Cherry Blossom Food Festivals that brought this place to my attention…read moreabout a year or two ago. Been wanting to try it for awhile and now I finally have. We ordered the following: Tiramisu Latte Caprese Bite London Fog Apple Cookie Cherry Matcha Tonic Tiramisu Sea Salt Caramel Gelato The Cherry Matcha Tonic was pretty but wasn't too crazy about the flavor. I should have just gone with my original gut instinct and chosen a hot beverage like Hojicha Latte or something like that. I was sort of thirsting for something cooler for a change though, and the Cherry Matcha Tonic was the first "cool" drink that caught my eye so I decided to go for it. Won't do that again. Everything else was good though. The Sea Salt Caramel Gelato was the star of the show! In the store there's a sign beneath their gelato section that says "Canadian Gelato Champion". I believe it after tasting the Sea Salt Caramel! They had Nama Chocolates too. I was tempted to get some but...only so much a person's wallet and waistline can handle at one time. Will try the Nama Chocolate some other time. You can order in person here, or you can place an "Express" order at the Kiosk. We tried both ways of ordering. Ordered at the counter first and then after finished my Cherry Matcha Tonic decided I wanted to try the Sea Salt Gelato so then tried ordering that from the Kiosk. Most of the parking in this area is paid but I lucked out and got a free spot right around the corner from this place!

I could tell even from outside that it's a popular work and study type of coffee shop with your free wifi and outlets. I hope this post doesn't give it away and make it way too crowded for me to find a seat next time. There's a steady flow of people visiting the stores while I was there on a weekday between late afternoon and early evening but there's always extra seat for anyone new looking for a desk to work or chat with friends. A few could be better are the pricing and temperature. They offer free oat milk substitute and -$0.35 for bringing your own cup but no more employee discount. And it was so cold in there, I could see a lot of people kept their winter jackets on, I don't think it's a heating issue but the constant windy seems to suggest the AC is on rather than the heater, oh wells Im out of there now. For that reason, unless I'm bundled up, it'll be a hard sale to be back again! I got a hojicha latte and it as pretty good, perfect sweetness and temperature for my cold with no ice. The barista was super great to work with.

Knowing how good 49th Parallel is with coffee I thought I'd try their version of the London Fog. I wasn't disappointed. In fact it was best London Fog I've ever had. I've had them at other places but I've never seen a preparation like 49th. They use loose leaf Earl Gray tea in a tall paper tea bag. They put the bag in your cup pour the steamed milk in and the tea steeps right into the milk. It's the smoothest London Fog I've had and isn't cloyingly sweet like many I've had.

I was in need of a snack and this was a short walk from our hotel. 49th Parallel is well known for their thoughtfully sourced, house-roasted coffees and their cult-favorite donuts, but they also offer a small menu of sandwiches if you're looking for something more filling. It wasn't too busy when we got there, though most of the tables were taken. We ordered a mix of sweet and savory: the chestnut brûlée donut, a salted caramel old fashioned, and a couple of breakfast sandwiches--the Doug and the Cascadia--both served on soft, buttery brioche buns. My other half also grabbed an Americano to go with it all. The chestnut brûlée donut was my fav of the bunch. The chestnut flavor was perfectly balanced--nice and light. The sandwiches were also good, especially thanks to that pillowy soft brioche. Overall, 49th Parallel was the perfect stop for a small, simple snack! Would recommend.
