    Front of coffee shop~
    Edward L.

    Nice new coffee shop in Burnaby Heights. Parking is plentiful on Hasting outside of rush hour, as well as the side streets. Place is nice and cool (temperature). Nice high ceilings. There are also some tables outside. Staff were friendly and professional. Coffee was tasty.

    double smoked bacon & egg breakfast bagel
    N. Danny S.

    Great coffee spot! I came here one morning the line was 7-8 people long but it moved quickly with 2 cash registers open. I ordered an iced latte and the double smoked bacon & egg breakfast bagel. Order came up quickly. There were plenty of tables available despite being the morning rush. The latte was prefect, not too sweet. The sandwich was exactly what I wanted, nice and toasted. They are very efficient and move through the crowds very quickly. Overall very happy with this place, would definitely come back again!

    Chocolate chunk chip lol $3.95 (i think)

    I've been seeing a lot of cookie reviews for Fresh St Market and though I had them on my list to try, they were 1. Out of the way, plus when you Google "best cookie to try in Vancouver", reddit unanimously voted for JJ Bean and serendipitously I walked by one today. I wanted the salted caramel but Reddit people voted on the chocolate chip and I went with what the people voted. The people didnt let me down. Soft at the center, hard on the outside, melty chocolate chunks, buttery, messy fingers afterward (thank goodness I took a lot of napkins and a glass of water). Overall, a win. Thanks Reddit!

    Entrance on a rainy day

    JJ is one of my favourites for reliably good coffee. I typically get an Americano, and it's flavourful with rich crema foam. They have soy, almond, and oat milk available on the counter for you to pour. Free of charge! Most places charge 75 cents or $1 or more for non-dairy options. I highly recommend the jalapeno cheddar muffin. It tastes like a half flour, half cornmeal mix, with lots of cheese in it.

    Very good hot chocolate!
    Sarah W.

    I needed an evening Hot Chocolate, so I tried JJ Bean! This place was a very decent size, so if you wanted to stay there's lots of space. I got mine to go. Atmosphere was nice, bright, and cheerful. I got my hot chocolate to go with no whip cream. It was delicious! Through me back to my childhood with flavour. They also put effort into presentation and did a cute little design in the drink at the end! I wasn't expecting that!

    I chose to come here with my family, so I could sit outside, meet with them and enjoy a cup of coffee. I found that JJ Bean here has a big outdoor seating area. It was awesome! I had coffee or latte at other JJ Bean locations. I loved their beverages in general. Before I visited this location, I hoped for the same good experience and having good quality of beverages here as well! The size or interior of this branch is very big! After the pandemic or when the restrictions were lifted, customers could enjoy indoor seating. That would be awesome! I love their interior design. It's very modern, contemporary, white and clean. The outdoor seating areas has got many tables and chairs comparing to other coffee places. That's why I said it was awesome! I ordered latte with soy, milk and almond milk as well as a cup of black coffee and two cheese muffins. All of them were very delicious. Pricing was reasonable considering the good quality, presentation of everything and the environment. I would love to come back here and enjoy dining inside the coffee shop one day. There is lots of street parking right on Hastings or small streets. Don't need to worry about looking for a parking spot. It's still free parking in this neighbourhood and I am hoping city of Burnaby will change the rules and laws here

    Almond croissant & chai tea latte
    Ceci L.

    I really like coming here because of their huge patio, which is perfect for bringing your dog. I recommend trying their croissants as they're baked fresh daily. My fave is their almond croissant, filled with custard. I love their espresso lattes, but decided to try a chai tea latte. The chai flavour was lacking, but I like that they sprinkle cinnamon on top.

    Medium latte with Oatly oat milk ($5.50)
    Gloria F.

    A beautiful new coffee shop in Burnaby Heights! This location is bright and spacious but it does get busy in here. I stopped by for a latte with oat milk, so glad they offer Oatly here! ($5.50 for medium) I can't wait to come back to try their pastries! The staff were friendly even when it's busy The only issue for me is that I wish they had a big and visible menu for those who are in line to see instead of a small one right at the cashier There's free parking in the lot behind the building

    Just visited & they are doing well with keeping it covid-19 safe with spacing floor stickers for customers waiting in line, plexi glass walls for the staff & spacing of dining tables. Had an iced almond milk latte and a granola coconut vegan yogurt parfait - both a delicious nice snack. Felt safe and welcome. Will be back! Thanks as well to the friendly staff!

    this place where I came today but am not pleased of the faces of the 2 white gals not  SMILING at all. It didn't look good.
    Belle Y.

    Came in today. I just ordered 1 item. I was disgusted of the workers not smiling. 2 white girls seems not happy. They look sad and it affects the Cusomer buying

    JJ Bean is the newest addition to Burnaby Heights! It's got a clean and cozy decor. Natural light coming through large windows and extended seating area at the back for laptop work/conversations. We visited JJ because we like supporting local businesses that continue to stay open during our current situation. They have kept their space clean, have social distancing in place and plexi glass to protect themselves. I think most businesses can follow JJ's footsteps and continue to remain open. I always get a small hot chocolate with almond milk and no whip. It's decent and I appreciate that it isn't as sweet as most hot chocolates are. I enjoyed the giant chocolate chip cookie I got one time. I don't remember it being too sweet, either. JJ seems to really care about my dental health. Love it!

    After going to la foret royal oak wifey wanted to see what the original location was like so…read moreinstead of getting baked goods there we traversed the 4min drive over to Jubilee location. We entered and joined the line, very earthy ambience with plenty of tables though very busy and full. Woodsy, and very clean. Sounds of all the patrons enjoying themselves with banter or working on their laptop whilst enjoying some beverage or food. I ordered the chocolate slice cake, wifey got a berry croissant and we got a tiramisu tart and tiramisu box to go. I ordered a house coffee just for something to drink with the cake and wifey also got a mocha. The cake was very good, not super sweet(for regular person) I'm diabetic so this was probably a bit much for me but I wanted to try. The butter cream in between each layer of chocolate sponge cake was smooth. The chocolate ganache was shiny and soft. I personally like more cake in general but this is a solid cake if you like butter cream and chocolate!. Wifeys croissant was full of cream on top and in the middle. Very soft and good for whipped cream lovers. The berries were large and sweet. Baked goods on terms from the ones we partook in were very good. Definitely understand why this is a popular place and always busy. Check it out!

This cafe is a good spot to catch up with friends over coffee and pastries that is transit-friendly. This time I came for brunch with my fiancé and we shared the fried chicken platter, and ordered the Spanish latte and iced mocha as our drinks. The food and drinks were good but for the price point, I wouldn't come back for brunch. I feel like this cafe is definitely overhyped and pricey compared to other local spots.

    This bakery is top tier for the area. It's located on a major intersection but tucked away in a…read moreresidential neighborhood. The place is small, with limited seating. The pastries are delicious and crafted so beautifully. I came here for hot chocolate festival and the flavours were spot on. A tad sweet but it's hot chocolate. I also tried their limited time sticky rice croissant which had all the umami flavours one could want! Texture of the croissant was crunchy, butter and full of flavour. Sadly, the sticky rice texture mixed with croissant was not the best. The service here is great. Staff are friendly. The only downside to this store is the way their line up system works. They have 2 store areas, connected by the till. It's a bit hard to pass through when there are people waiting in line to pay, waiting on line to order, etc. Just a bit of awkward spacing

The cafe is currently participating in the hot chocolate festival too but i ordered a matcha latte along with a cruffin apple cheesecake and ooo it was so delicious and bouncy airy. The center had fresh bits of apple and there was a creamy cream cheese filling and you get this texture that's a combo of crossiant and muffin .. if you love apple or even caramel etc i think it would really suit your pallette. I will order some pastries to go next time when i have more time. Staff is super friendly and patient. They handled the loads of questions i had. Super clean place too. Free parking upfront and there's parking downstairs too.

    My cousin recently had Cory from HEY! CAKE THIS! Make a cake for her and below is what she said:…read more YEY!!! I found my forever cake designer and maker for all my family celebrations! I wasn't going to write any reviews because I just don't want to spend time doing it. But when I showed pictures of the cake Cory created for my daughter to my family and friends, I knew I had to write one. I was also reminded by my cousin and sisters about that rip off cake I received last year for my son. The cake we all called the Photocopy cake ( see review for Yummy Yonnie Cakes) But first, let me tell you about CORY'S cakes from HEY CAKE THIS! Cory does not limit the style, colour, theme, flavour, filling or size of the cake. He gives his clients free range. But keep in mind, price will obviously go up the more elaborate your imagination. If you can imagine it. He will create it! I reached out to Cory to get an idea of how much a Poppy cake would be and I even sent a picture I found online to him for reference. I told him to put many flowers and make the cake pink. I wanted strawberry filling, with fresh strawberries and a vanilla cake. Boy did he deliver! The cake I received exceeded my expectations. Everything on that cake was fondant. He cut out all the flowers, the letterings, the number, AND the star of the cake.... POPPY! He made a 2D Poppy! Nothing on that cake was a photocopy image stuck onto sugar paper. Look carefully at Poppy. Her dress, the eyes and mouth. So much details. Cory handprinted some of the details on her too. I commented on his Poppy and how I appreciated him not doing a photocopy image. He told me if the image is not complex he will do all it all freehand. I only gave I'm a week and a half for this cake too! Due to the pandemic, Cory offered free delivery. He wanted to make sure his cake was in the best condition for his clients. Cory is also very considerate. When he arrived, he actually took out a fold up table to place his cake on. He did not want to put the cake on the floor or ground where it could pick up germs. After he put it on the table, he stepped back (social distancing) so that I could take it. The box the cake came in was GOLD with a pink ribbon to complete the look. Did you know he actually MAKES all his boxes the cakes go into? No cheap see through cellophane. But a nice gold colour cardstock box. This is better because if the cake was to be a surprise , the box will definitely keep the cake hidden. My kids recycled the box and make gold cut out starts and crowns for their dolls. Cory is definitely a master cake creator. He will not disappoint. The communication between him and I for the cake was awesome. Before he went ahead with anything he was unsure of, he reached out to me. He wanted to make sure his suggestions was something I would also like. Vancouver is fortunate to have their own 'Duff Goldman'. I regret not having found him sooner to make my cakes. The Photocopy cake was an expensive lesson. Don't go to a place that limits you or brush your feedback off. GO TO CORY from HEY CAKE THIS! You won't be disappointed! I look forward to my two other cakes in the next few weeks! I will post it here as well for everyone to see. His work speaks for itself. All his reviews are excellent. Nothing less than 5 stars. I wish I can give him 10 stars! Cory's custom cakes ARE worth the splurge 1-2 or even 3 times a year! Thank you Cory!
