    Stopped by KOS Waffle on Robson and it was such a sweet surprise! They have so many fun waffle combinations -- crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and perfectly paired with creamy gelato and toppings. I tried one of their signature waffles and it was honestly picture-perfect and tasted even better. The shop is bright and welcoming, with super friendly staff who helped explain the different flavour options. Everything felt freshly made and you can really taste the quality. Perfect spot for a dessert date, an after-dinner treat, or just something cute for your feed. Highly recommend if you're around downtown Vancouver!

    So good we went here twice in our short visit to Vancouver! Plain waffle with whip cream or create your own waffle with ice cream and chocolate were our repeat order. It's a cute & quaint spot with fun Norwegian words to learn. Order at a kiosk, one person making the waffles, and maybe two chairs inside to sit, and smell sweet cinnamony toasty waffles in the making.

    Old Faithful

    Came here with a group of friends, and we were so glad we did. It's not every day you find a place dedicated entirely to Norwegian waffles. What a unique concept and such a cozy, welcoming spot! I had the Old Faithful waffle sandwich (strawberry, banana, Nutella, almond slices), and it was absolutely delicious. Perfectly crisp yet soft waffles, fresh ingredients, and that perfect balance of sweetness. Everyone in our group loved what they ordered. Prices vary depending on what you get. They can be on the higher side, but everything feels worth it for the quality. Make sure you bring patience if you do come here, though, and I don't recommend coming here if in a rush. Each waffle is made fresh to order, and you can really taste the care and time that goes into it. Totally worth the wait. Can't wait to come back and try more if in the Vancouver area again anytime soon!

    I Scream (?)

    I forgot what the specific thing we ordered was called but it was something related to 'ice cream' in the name. (Like the "I Scream"? idk) Anyways... The waffle itself tasted like the frozen eggo waffles from the supermarket (like not very thick or fluffy - it tasted reheated even though I literally saw them make it... so that was strange). The ice cream sandwich was also meh - also, I'm pretty sure the menu said ice cream, which is why I thought there was going to be actual ice cream :( Overall, not a great dessert. It wasn't the most expensive (around $10 or so?), so maybe I'd consider trying a different option if I ever came again? But I won't been keen to do so any time soon :/

    Delicious hole in the wall in downtown Vancouver. Great selection of sweet and savory waffle sandwiches. Good service too.

    Was looking for a sweet treat to end the night and thankfully came across this cute place on the walk. We were quickly greeted and ordered up front (optional kiosk ordering). We got the Pebbles Reese, Chocolate Dream, and I-Scream sweet waffles. DELICIOUS! And very big sizes. I would definitely recommend this place for any sweet tooth. They also have savory waffles, which I will have to come back to try one day!

    Grilled chicken club
    Kay F.

    KOS Waffles is a small shop with a few seating options available. I ended up deciding to get the grilled chicken club waffle (with the ranch dressing on the side) and thought it was okay. I quite enjoyed the bacon and cheese but found the chicken a bit dry. I think I enjoyed the original Waffleland a bit more but found KOS an interesting concept.

    Caramelized cinnamon waffle
    Christopher C.

    Best thing that I ate in Vancouver! Their waffles are shaped like hearts, very iconic of Norway, and they are folded like a taco. Then they placed caramelized cinnamon, powdered sugar, and whipped cream in it. Delicious! It was flavorful without being too sweet or too heavy.

    See all

    Great waffle sandwiches - had the chicken club a blend of sweetness from the waffle with a great sandwich tucked inside. Glad we stopped.

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!

Space is clean. I didnt stay or have any of their food though so cant really comment on more than that. Pricing is high but similar to other local coffee shops.

If you're nearby though, worth a visit.

    An update to my previous review. We heard that the London Fog drink was invented in Vancouver in…read more1997. 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.
