I used to visit this cafe almost every week a few years ago. I loved their Dalgona latte which I…read morethought was the best in town. Since their management changed, the drink flavor was not the same as before, so, I stopped visiting. Recently I just found dubai chocolate cookie hello kitty version on instagram, so curious, and I revisited. I got dalgona cream latte and dubai cookie. I am so glad their drink flavor is back and just as great as before. Dalgona cream was so creamy and good when it mixed with milk. Dubai cookie 's kataifi filling was great. So crunchy with very bold chocolate flavor. It is called "cookie" however, to me, it felt more like Dubai chocolate mochi. Texture was so soft and chewy. It was great. Overall, I am happy I revisited. Next time, I will try different item I had never tried.

We were able to take advantage of this offer after dining there. The scorching day called for some shakes. Both were sizeable though on the sweeter side and too liquidy to be considered shakes.

I got a mango bingsoo and it was okay. It was quite expensive ($15 single serving) but I think that's someone standard for bingsoo these days.

This review is based on my preference of course, so it might become ur fav thing cause it's a cute concept and good for summer to refresh

I visited Nemesis Coquitlam to get some pastries…read more What I got: Pull apart - croissant dough filled with chives and cream cheese, Pesto mozzarella swirl -Pesto and mozzarella cheese, Ferrero rocher danish - Hazelnut praline, chocolate mousse, vanilla custard Pistachio loaf - pistachio ganache and raspberries. Pull apart was lighter than I expected. Other place's pull apart was so buttery, cheesy, however, this one was flaky and buttery, so, if you prefer light texture pull apart, you will like it. Cream cheese filling was nice accent. Pistachio loaf was more dense than I expected. It had pistachio whipped cream on top, so, cream helped loaf texture more smooth. Loaf had strong pistachio flavor. I liked whipped cream and loaf combination. Pesto and mozzalera swirl was a bit too salty for me. Dough was super flaky and buttery, I liked the dough texture so much, but filling could be more minder. Unfortunately, I did not have ferrero rocher danish. I heard that this one was the best. Mousse was so delicious and dough was very flaky and buttery. Overall, I think their pastries are always outstanding and good quality. The place was extremely busy and could not get a table. Next time, I wish I could dine-in.

It was pretty busy on a Saturday afternoon with only bar seating available initially, but not too long after some sofa space opened up. I was OBSESSED with the ube matcha, I learned from the super awesome barista that it's sweetened with mango puree. This was absolutely my favorite matcha I've had in a while now and my only disappointment is they don't offer larger sizes for it. The smoked salmon bun was pretty small for $10, I also didn't think the flavors were meshing well. Also found the pull apart stuffed cream cheese croissant a bit misleading. I pulled it apart and there was barely any filling unfortunately. Definitely a cute and inviting spot to grab a drink and stay a while. I wouldn't go for food food here though. Also I have yet to try, but maybe a dessert item here would be more worthwhile.

My favorite season has arrived -- the Vancouver Croissant Crawl Festival! I visited Bjornbar bakery…read morein Burquitlam. What I got Banana Bread Croissant Flaky layers wrapped around rich banana bread, dark chocolate, and a sprinkle of toasted coconut. I visit here very often, however, I haven't bought croissant for a while. This special item's dough was not buttery and crispy texture as before. It was a bit too light and airy. And Banana bread filling was very thin slice.. Not sure their patisserie chef or recipe has changed I can't judge based on only 1 croissant, I must try other croissant item to compare.

Unfortunately, its quite hard to find marzipan in the lower mainland. So you can imagine that I was quite excited when I saw they had one on the menu. At first glance the chocolate drizzle on top looked too little, but it was just the right amount. The all butter croissant was perfectly flaky. I heated mine up in the toaster oven for a few mins. The amount of filling that was inside amazed me. However, it would have been more enjoyable if it was more spread out, instead of a "log" of filling. Also, after warming up the pastry, the bottom was extremely oily. So oily that it was literally dripping. The meringue on the Lemon Meringue Bar was a bit deflated and dry. The lemon flavor wasn't overly powerful. The Mango Bar, mango flavor was very mild. I would have liked to taste something a bit more prominent. Also, I didnt like thay they added so much sugar to the Graham Cracker crust. The Spumoni Bar tasted mostly of coconut, but the bar was super flavorful and tasty. The Cheesy Bar cheesecake texture was nice and light. The Fruity Bar was very tasty. Although I wouldn't say that it tasted like strawberry. I liked the crunchy texture from the white chocolate covered rice krispies. I liked the Matcha it could have used a touch more matcha, but I know not everyone likes a super strong matcha flavor. My top picks would be SpumoniBar, Matcha, and Fruity Bar. However, I feel that all of the bars could use more flavor. Additionally, I would like to note the fantastic customer service that I received. I had a dog with me and she has major separation anxiety. One of the staff members noticed us and was kind enough to offer to watch the dog while I quickly ordered inside. I would rate the croissants 4.5 stars, the bars 3.8 stars and the customer service 5 stars.

I have fallen in love with their strong, frothy shaken espressos, and love watching the martini-shaker drama. I have gotten the iced drink with peppermint once and then hazelnut. I think next time I will ask to go a bit heavier on the syrup since the flavor isn't as strong as I'd like. I have also gotten a breakfast wrap, which was so reasonably priced, just like the coffee. A rarity in this day and age.

They do have a good selection of items on their menu from sandwiches to breakfast bagels to coffees and smoothies. Plus some treats to devour as well which is so nice to choose from the variety.
