Met some friends here for a quickie lunch today…read more How refreshing to go to a place in Van where there is ample free street parking. Right off the bat, I was impressed. This tiny café reminded me of the boho-esque holes in the wall that I used to frequent when I attended McGill in the early '80's. Small, hippie-ish, fresh pastries, good coffees, unpretentious vibe, small bistro tables and chairs outside. Nothing fancy, but clean and reliable. All that was missing were the op art posters on the walls. Service was quick. The two young adults behind the counter were efficient but not talkative. (I was surprised to read past reviews mentioning the friendly service. I don't think the guy or the girl behind the counter said two words to me). Oh well. I ordered a chicken ciabatta and a canned soda. I found the prices on a the higher side for what you get (my sandwich was $12.50). That said, the sandwich was fantastic: the bread was perfect, and the chicken and melted cheese were great, with a good ratio to the Dijon and other condiments, too. Just a fresh, delicious sandwich. Bathroom is small but clean and well stocked. Good little local go-to joint for a fast meal or coffee break.

93 Coffee Cafe & Eatery is a very unassuming multipurpose space. With its big open windows…read morereceiving plenty of natural light, soft light fixtures, and simple yet modern table and seating set up, it is a perfect spot for a date - getting to know somebody over coffee, espresso, and matcha, a dessert spot - with its various pastries, parfaits, and sweet offerings; or breakfast and lunch spot with its versatile menu of sandos, curries, teishoku, noodles, and bentos. Stumbled across this place while looking for a simple yet delicious Japanese meal to end my latest Vancouver trip. 93 coffee showed up, which was perfect as it was only a stroll and a half from the downtown waterfront area. The location is thicker away, quiet, and upon first entry, it was obviously that somebody meticulously thought of the concept and took great care in procuring the furniture, fixtures, and set up. The staff was friendly but in a non-rushing feeling-like-a-business type of way. So all the good qualities of your neighborhood cafe with the charm of a Japanese cafe. I ordered a hamburg steak teishoku and my boyfriend ordered the Hamburg steak curry. We were impressed by how the patty was flavorful, meaty, but neither greasy or heavy - signature of how it is in Japan. The curry was flavorful without being overly rich. The side pairings for the teishoku was perfect - a mini salad, side of pickled vegetables, rice, and miso soup. Very well balanced. Overall, super satisfied of this latest find. We need to come back to try some of the dessert offerings.

Little Japanese-western cafe inside the Denman Place Mall. You'd never know it was there, walking…read moreby the mall on the outside. Its on the south side of the mall and there is no signage on Denman where all the foot traffic is. The space is quite big, comfortable chairs, and clean. Run by some Japanese people. The menu reminds me of those Japanese "Western" chain restaurants all over Japan, and they serve some comfort food dishes like omurice and Japanese curry. Sizeable menu of Matcha and Houjicha drinks, as well as some desserts. All the staff were friendly and at least during lunch hour, the place is relatively quiet. Service was a bit slow though, and they didnt bring our 2 dishes out at the same time. Food we tried: omurice+hamburg steak add-on - the omurice was quite nice. Comes wrapped in a thin omelette the old school way. They serve it with ketchup. Not much chicken in the chicken rice. Flavour was nice though. The side of hamburg steak was quite soft but flavourful. Did not taste like just beef - I suspect it was a mix of beef and pork. Also had a small side of salad. Overall pretty solid. 4/5. beef curry rice bowl - pretty good, the curry sauce was generous and not too salty. Served with the usual side of pickles. 4/5. Houjicha iced latte. Exactly as it sounds, and pretty good too. Very solid 4/5 overall. Weird location and I suspect they would be much busier with more visibility. There arent many places in town that serve this kind of food so there is opportunity for them to do well. Their food is pretty good, and a good approximation for the stuff you'd get in Japan at those western style chains that are so popular there. IYKYK. Pricing is high-ish but for this area it is not crazy. The beverages are $6-8 and the food runs about $20. I would come back if I had a craving for this type of food.

I asked for some advice from the server about what drink to get. I asked her which one was her favourite. She was really friendly and recommended the matcha drinks. I was in the mood for something with coffee flavour and luckily there was a matcha latte! The flavour was just right, and she even brought it directly to my table rather than calling it out and having me stand up to go get it. It was just a nice touch to the experience. I was able to enjoy my drink and read my book / write in my journal in peace! Peace is really what I needed today. I'm glad I was able to find it here :)

Disappointed with this location, especially if you're looking for a spot to study or get work done…read more The venue is huge with lots of seating and even a dedicated meeting space, but the WiFi is practically non-existent (even the staff admitted it's terrible). The seating also isn't very comfortable for sitting long periods. We tried the Garlic Butter Croissant, but it was super bready with zero pastry layers. The garlic aroma was strong (which was nice), but it felt loaded with a heavy, greasy fat that didn't taste like real butter. The hot food options looked decent, but I'd skip it as a workspace or bakery spot.

It was fairly quiet with a few customers at around 9am. The place looked bright and welcoming. The baked goods looked delicious and I spied many pistachio items. There was even a honey cake! I missed having that. As I am off sweets for a while now (everything tasted overly sweet to me), I settled for a bacon cheese croissant and regular coffee. Order and pay at the counter, they will bring the food over. The croissant was nice and flaky. The coffee was also good, not tart or acidic at all. The cream in coffee made it pretty smooth. What made it 5-star was the vibe and service/owner/customers. This place has the friendly neighborhood chill vibe where it is a cross between "Friends" and "Cheers". Shortly after I sat down, the cafe began to fill up. I saw a guy got up from his table to move to a smaller one when a bigger group came in on his own accord. He then told the group to take his table. The owner knows the regular customers by names and sight. The other regulars know each other as I saw people stopping at other tables greeting and chatting with each other. They even pulled up chairs and have an impromptu gabfest. They were not loud at all. What a nice thing to witness. Not a soulless cafe where customers are plugged into their laptops or with headphones. I will need to come back again to try the other stuff. Plus I'm pretty surprised at how good the regular coffee is. Most places' drip coffee has a sour/acidic aftertaste and this doesn't.

Noise level is quite minimal with the quiet chatter here and there, making it a good spot to get some work done while people watching. My go-to's for ordering are their matcha drinks for sure. Strong matcha taste and the right amount of sweetness. I've tried the original matcha and the ube matcha before and both were pretty good. If I'm feeling like drinking coffee, I liked their dirty ube latte! I do prefer my coffee on the sweeter side, so something to keep in mind if you're into darker roasts. Also had their hazelnut latte and that was on the bitter side (for my tastes). We also ordered a matcha cookie the last time we were there and it had a strong matcha taste as well. On the sweeter side though since there was also white chocolate/macadamia bits. Would pair well with an espresso. Would definitely come again (as I have already)! Great place for a coffee/snack on Main St while thrifting/shopping.
