I got the their Snow Velvet Matcha (Iced only). It's made of organic matcha, milk, and pistachio tiramisu cream. The drink was beautifully presented. If you don't mix the drink well then the matcha can be quite bitter. I also got their ruby berry cookie, which has ruby chocolate in it and it was so good. The cookie was moist and flavorful. 4.5 stars
The original La Foret in Burnaby is just a few minutes away from us and we're more than happy to support a local business that's thriving and expanding to other cities. Similar to the Burnaby location, this has a mix of high ceilings, wood and metal, and lots of plants and greenery. Coffee and pastries were lovely (as expected) and we were able to find a table quickly. Parking isn't as limited as the one in Burnaby so that's a plus.
I visited La foret for gathering with friend. The ambience was so nice and cozy, I really like their cafe design and decor. They offer different type of bread, cakes and drinks. What I got - Tiramisu roll cake and Matcha with cream form. Matcha with cream form was so good! I will try this item again! Matcha flavor was strong and sweetness was just right, cream form on the top was so delicious! Tiramisu roll cake had a lot of cream filling. Sponge cake was good. It was a very decent item. And size was bigger than I expected. Overall, I always like to visit this cafe. It was a great gathering spot or good for take out.
La Forêt is a beautifully designed café that nailed both atmosphere and food quality. Upon entering, you'll be welcomed with an 'oasis in the city' vibes. The space is open, calming, and surrounded by greens/natural elements -- ideal for a relaxed brunch or catching up on work. We ordered the spanish latte, caramel macchiato, spaghettini amatriciana, and waffle & chicken -- all were surprisingly excellent. We heard they were popular for their pastries and dessert, but the entrées were actually good too! From the crispy fried chicken with the fluffy waffle (black because of the squid-ink?), to their perfectly cooked spaghettini -- we initially thought the pricing was on the higher end, but with the quantity and QUALITY, it was definitely worth it! We thought each dish is enough for two people to share. Staff were efficient and attentive. Service was reasonable. Easily one of my now go-to spots in Coquitlam. Can't wait to come back soon!
I was invited here for a business meeting and it didn't disappoint. This restaurant styled cafe bakery pleases my aesthetic mind so much as it incorporates a natural feel with all the greenery, wooden table sets and stone walls. They have a huge arrangement of croissants, cookies and baked goods to select from while you're waiting in line prior to ordering. The service was excellent, the cashier gave great suggestions when it came to what to order and others were helpful when needing anything. Overall, the food was great and the environment - so comfortable and enjoyable. I'd recommend!
The VIBES! If you've been to their other location by Metrotown, then you know what I'm talking about. The interior feels cozy and you know you want to just relax and take your time. Parking. Very little parking up front, but they have a few spots in the back and a lot more on the street in the back as well. Do not park in the area where there are signs that say 'DO NOT PARK'. Respect other buisness, friends. When you walk in you're greeted with delicious baked goods in cases and pre-wrapped in individual bags. Grab a tray and pick what you like. If you want a meal from the kitchen, check out the menu and order accordingly. At the Austin location they have brunch items like eggs benedict and chicken and waffles, pastas, soup and salads. Once they give you a buzzer, take a seat and wait. If you have a larger party then you can drag tables and chairs together. We ordered: Spanish Latte (iced) $6.30 Mocha (iced) 6.30 Chicken and Waffles $21.99 We also got a bunch of buns to eat later ranging around $5 each. The coffee is delightful, honestly can't go wrong. But if you need more sugar or honey they have a station set up on the side for utensils, ketchup, hot sauce, and sweeteners. Fried Chicken was great, and with the syrup it worked. The black waffle was dense and flavourless. Would not order again. Do go and enjoy the vibes. Grab a coffee or tea and just relax, or bring your work with you and use the free wifi.
Finally got around to visiting the Austin location of La Foret. Parking was very difficult because they have two tiny parking lots (one in front and one in back) and it's definitely not big enough for the amount of people inside. I even visited on a weekday and it was all full. The inside was also very crowded and full. It's also unfortunate because sound carries super well and it gets very loud inside since it's just one big giant open space. It was a bit disappointing for a cafe experience. Everything else was on par with my visits previously to the other locations. The space was nicely decorated with lots of plants. The food and coffee were both good and the service was fast. Not sure I'll visit again just due to preference for other cafes in the area.
Tried this location after we had gone for a stroll at Mundy Park. There are a few parking spots in front. Inside is big with plenty of tables, although not as big as their original location on Jubilee Ave in Burnaby. Service was great, desserts were delicious and a great addition to the area.
So pretty and so yummy!! Was lucky to find parking right by the cafe. Would definitely return.
Came here with my family. Though their floor layout was a bit chaotic and like a maze to get in and out of your table, their food selections are amazing! Servers are very attentive and friendly. Parking is a bit of a hassle too. More parking at the back of the establishment... be careful not to use the McDonald's area (located just beside their area) as it's a tow away zone!!!
Nice place for a casual meeting. The ambiance is fresh and inviting. Got some cookies and a mango bingsoo - all were good. The shaved ice with sweet mango really complimented each other. Service was good - you order then they bring it to you. Overall, worth a visit
This location has a large seating area. Ambiance is modern and airy. Coffee was great. Unfortunately, their baked goods selection was lacking at 8 pm. Service was efficient. I only wish they opened a bit later in the evening until 10 pm so I can catch up with friends a bit longer. They currently close at 9 pm daily.
Great service but very crowded and noisy. Hard to hear your companion. Enjoyed the yummy matcha latte with oat milk and condensed milk. Nice service when staff deliver it to your trackable table. Found street parking but I don't know how people are supposed to come here otherwise with only 12ish parking spots unless they walk in. Also a bit chilly with the door opening and closing letting the cold air in.
Rigatoni Cream Bacon Mushroom -$21.99 The rigatoni was perfectly al dente, and I could taste the strong mushroom/umami flavour in the sauce. It was a bit too salty for me though, and I would have liked to see a bit more bacon. Iced Banana Velvet Matcha 12 oz -$6.85 Tasted exactly as the title says. Delicious Korean banana milk paired with a velvety cream topping, and a matcha aftertaste to finish. If you aren't a fan of banana flavoured things do not get this, as it tastes like 90% banana and 10% matcha. read more

~Brew-tifully delicious~ This café is the perfect blend of cozy café charm and vibrant restaurant energy. The spacious layout makes it an ideal spot to gather with family, catch up with friends, or even meet with coworkers for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and relaxed, yet still has a lively buzz that makes it feel welcoming and energetic. Their drink menu is full of unique and delicious options, and the display of sweet treats is hard to resist. The food is consistently flavorful, well-seasoned, and thoughtfully prepared. Every bite was enjoyable, but the standout for me was the croissant--perfectly buttery, incredibly flaky, and absolutely irresistible. I could have eaten another one without hesitation! It's easy to see why this place has become a local favorite. With great food, creative drinks, and a wonderful atmosphere, it's the kind of spot you'll find yourself coming back to again and again. Other: -$$ -small parking lot -solo bathrooms :) -free water lol -self help by placing dirty dishes in the bins - shaded seating outside read more

Another location of La Forêt. Perfect for a quieter afternoon in the cafe. Not as loud as the metro location so works for studying / working (no outlets!) but still as delicious with the cream filled croissants read more

The service here is excellent, the raspberry mojito summer drink was tasty. The inside of the restaurant is beautiful. A little bit slim on parking outside with only 4 stalls out front, 6 stalls off of Ridgeway and strict signs about not parking in the closed down McDonalds lot. There is street parking behind the establishment. I highly recommend taking Ridgeway Ave to get to La Foret. The kitchen is just average especially for the price. Both dishes were quite average. The mango croissant was incredible though! read more
