There was a Fantuan deal recently for $2.99 Brown Sugar Milk Tea at Tealips. Couldn't pass up an…read moreopportunity like that. Had to take advantage of that deal. There was a limit on how many of these drinks you could order. Basically, you could only order one. So if someone else in the family wanted a $2.99 Brown Sugar Milk Tea, they would have to have a separate Fantuan account and order from there. Otherwise, "Too Bad. So Sad!" I ordered mine with less ice and 50% sugar. When I came to the shop to pick up my drink, I also ordered an Avocado sandwich to bring home with the drink. My daughter had raved to me recently about this Avocado sandwich. Brought home the drink and sandwich, and shared them both with her. I knew from past experience that the Artisan sandwiches at Tealips were quite good. It had been quite a few years since the last time I had one of their sandwiches, and I don't think they had this Avocado sandwich at the time that I had last ordered one of their sandwiches. The Avocado sandwich was indeed, very good. It's made with Foccacia bread and comes with lettuce, cheese and tomato. The Foccacia bread was soft, and not toasted. Not sure if I'd ever tried plain, untoasted Foccacia bread before. I usually have it toasted. I found that it was still very enjoyable though, untoasted. This worked better for my daughter too as she was having a bit of a sore throat at the time, so the softer bread was better on her throat. The Brown Sugar Milk tea was soooo good! Havn't had a Brown Sugar Milk Tea in quite awhile and this one was really good. Also, it was still plenty sweet at 50% sweetness. Hard to imagine now that I used to order all my drinks at 100% sweetness. No wonder I used to gain weight back in the days when I first started drinking bubble teas and I had them at 100% sweetness! There were a bunch of different promotions on in the shop, including one where you could donate blood and get a free bubble tea. I might consider taking part in that.

Came here because I had a 50% off coupon for their waffles. Ordered the cookie monster waffle. On…read morethe menu it says you can choose between brussels or liege but the cashier never asked even after paying. I had to ask whether I could choose and they said yes. The waffle was so disappointing. Nothing special about it to be worth the original price of $13.95. You would have expected something bigger but it was small.

Unfortunately the tiny blonde Russian girl, with the blue spirulina eyes, who's also the youngest and shortest, said I make them feel uncomfortable because I compliment them every time I get a coconut latte and nanaimo bar. I never had an issue with any of the girls here; we always have a good time and share laughs, and they giggle at the (good stuff) I say to them, but unfortunately Ms. Grumpy can't take a compliment or a joke. There's also a lot of bad talk going on behind customers' backs, as I told blonde I can hear all that is whispered till the very back of the kitchen, the place most suitable for her, which is how I overheard that her birthday is tomorrow, wishing her a happy birthday like the gentleman that I am, to which she said to me in a rude and sarcastic way "YOU HAVE BIG EARS!!!", ohh and "YOU'RE NOT INVITED." BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!!! As I was also told in the past, "WHAT ARE YOU LIKE 50 YEARS OLD???" Not only is rude and sarcastic, but also (passive-aggressive) and (dismissive) as my coco ice water (Ice water with cocoa powder on top) request was refused, making excuses, and getting Niko (coworker) to go get it, just to avoid contact with her #1 customer...(ME). She doesn't seem to get, I'm only a customer and have no intentions in her. The little lady has an inflated ego that's just about to pop and is the only female without proper training in service or manners. My review won't stop here. I'm also making a YouTube video to let people know, so stay tuned, folks! Treat customers like fine gold; otherwise, you'll have a whole lot of angry, unhappy customers on your hands. BAD SERVICE, NO COCOA ICE WATER, AND NO BIRTHDAY INVITATION. A SAD DAY AFTER ALL...

Honestly, there isn't a single thing I didn't like. The space has changed a bit over the past few years. Part of it now is retail and the other half is the café. It still has the cozy charm and there's even outdoor seating which is perfect for summer. Yesterday, I chatted with the barista and learned that the owner/pastry chef trained in Paris. That might explain why everything tastes so amazing!

Truly, you know the food, coffee & tea is good when there's times that the line up nearly goes to the door & no seats are available inside or out. Certain times of the year they have special drinks featured but the staff is so wonderful that if there's something you liked from a past season, if they still have the ingredients, they'll make it. Lately, Ginger Rogers is my treat to boost my day. Honestly, I've tried so many food options & haven't had a meh reaction to any. There's wraps & paninis plus desserts & cookies & take home items ranging from pancake & cookie mixes, jams & syrups to frozen meals. I think it's decently priced for being in this part of the world & like I mentioned, it's always a decent meal or snack. For accessibility, all the tables are moveable. So you could adjust away from the benches & chairs to allow a walker or wheel chair. But as this cafe is smaller, for those with baby strollers, I would recommend leaving them outdoors & bringing in the essentials with your baby/kids. The door isn't automatic but the handles & space around would allow for most to access the doors (providing that the local puppers aren't tied right next to the door & baby strollers are parked far enough back). Parking has one handicap but I would actually recommend parking closer to the vet clinic side, as that would be easier for drop off & pick up for those with mobility aids. There's also a generous patio area for people to sit with umbrellas. So it is very common to see many people sitting with their dogs outside enjoying the weather & a coffee. Bathrooms (there's 2) are accessed by keys provided by staff. It's been a long time since I needed to use them but they were in decent condition considering the range of people that could use them in the day. Might be a bit tricky to maneuver a wheelchair that way but walker & cane users could navigate past the extra door, random pop-up displays & extra table in the business lobby side. This cafe also allows laptop usage throughout the week but laptop free on weekends. After what I seen today (& it has increased in amount of people from other days I've seen), I'm very glad that's the case. Some people legit bring their whole office, including their screen raisers, extra tech options to headphones and such... I personally think if you need to take up a 4 seat space for your "online needs" & you give off the energy that it's serious work, perhaps the library down the road (which allows room bookings so you could do webinars or group work) or look to rent a temp office space might be better for work. But that's just my two cents as a disabled person who notices this happening more often in a lot more cafes lately. I hope these extra tech office travellers at least buy more than a coffee as all the food is really great here & this cafe deserves to be well supported by all. Definitely give it a try if you're in the PoMo area. Especially if you're already planning on walking into the inlet area to Rocket Point park & pier.

When I asked if it was actually a cold brew, I was met with attitude and defensiveness. I was a barista for years, so from my perspective, that level of service was unacceptable. If it were me behind the bar, I would have said something like, "You know what, that doesn't look right. Can I add a shot of espresso or get you something else instead?" A little honesty and willingness to make it right go a long way. Fail.
