One of the best palmiers I've had in Vancouver as it was crispy and fresh. The ambiance is so cozy and staff was friendly.
Had a pain au chocolat to go and visited at around 3pm. It was very busy on the insane and almost every table was taken so I assumed the place is well known and good. The interior is cute and although it's a bit loud because of how crowded it is, I can imagine it would make a good study/work spot. There's also seating on the outside that would be lovely on a nice day. Service was quick and they were very friendly. They make totoro cookies which are adorable. Unfortunately, the pain au chocolat wasn't very good. It is rather cold and not very flavourful. One good thing is that it's nice and crumbly. The picture I put in is around the halfway point and there was no chocolate yet. There were 2 "chocolate chips" on the inside on opposite ends, which I assume is chocolate that has gone so cold it has solidified. I was very disappointed by this purchase.
I can't believe I've never reviewed this place! This is my favorite coffee shop in the summer time. I love their outdoor space. They have nice sandwiches and standard drinks. Friendly service!
This bakery looked so cute, I had to check it out while in the area. It's kinda small but has a pretty good assortment of savory and sweet items. I ordered a savory danish, sweet danish, and orange fennel cake to go. They were all delicious! The pastries were flaky and well-balanced. My favorite was the cake, which had a more unique flavor. Service was friendly. The sandwiches looked good, I'd love to try those next time.
Cool neighbourhood coffee shop with some sandwiches and baked items, including some vegan options. They usually have a rotating vegan sandwich. On this visit, they had a Veggie Focaccia ($13.50) with hummus, pesto, tapenade, roasted peppers and arugula. I also got their soup of the day (a vegan zucchini; $6/cup or $9/bowl). Honestly, the sandwich was not too great -- small, pretty light on the fillings, overly salty and not great value. The soup was pretty bland too. Based on this sampling, I wouldn't return. Foglifter has much better vegan options across the street.
Cute little cafe on Main Street. There's a small amount of seating within the shop itself and outside there are picnic benches just on the side street. I got a cappuccino to go and thought that it was okay, but nothing that special. I also got a scone that they warmed up which was not bad. They also had some cute Totoro cookies which were quite photogenic but looked a bit too sweet for me with the icing.
Visited this cafe specifically for the Totoro cookies and they did not disappoint. There was only 1 cookie left in the display at around 11am on a Sunday and I'm not sure if it really was the last one, but maybe go earlier to be safe :) The cafe feels quite old but the decorations are very pretty and we were able to sit at a pink table. There's not a lot of seating and there were some tables occupied by customers on their laptops which was a little bit annoying. The space didn't feel large enough or free enough for people to do work in. Other than that, don't really have any complaints. Although it would be nice if there were other pretty cookies besides the Totoro one; it seemed quite out of place amongst all the other baked goods.
I've been here for twice already. My first visit was last Saturday (June 27th) on my commute to work. Totoro cookie and Latte were fantastic. Totoro cookie was pretty yummy. It's gingerbread cookie flavoured cookie in Totoro shape. It's a must try! Latte was great! My second visit was earlier today. I wanted some sweets and coffee so I ordered Lemon Loaf ($2.95) and Macchiato ($3) to go. Because I work on Main St it was nice getting some discount, yay! Lemon Loaf was great; however, I was disappointed in the size of Macchiato it was about espresso shot size. Staff kindly explained that I'll get regular size if I ordered Americano or Latte. Their Macchiato isn't same as the ones from Starbucks, boo! I really wanted to give 4 stars and because my Macchiato wasn't cheap I'm giving 3 stars. Great vibes and cool paintings. Cookies and pastries won me over. I just wish the menu clearly stated if it's short, tall or medium or by ounces. It was great experience here though.
A group of us were looking to get some coffee the evening of 11/9 and happened by Liberty. It was probably 5:50p and they closed at 6, so they didn't look particularly happy to see us when we walked in but they still provided good customer service. They quickly took our orders, dispatched baked goods to those of us who had ordered them, and set about making our drinks. My order consisted of a latte and lemon loaf. The latte was pretty standard, but the lemon loaf was absolutely amazing! I honestly would have eaten the whole thing! The atmosphere of the space was cute, quaint. It's a type of place where you could study, meet friends, or just chill out. It would be cool if they stayed open later however. Overall, good experience and I'd go back just for that lemon loaf next time I'm in Vancouver.
Based on the reviews, I was looking forward to something sweet. Either my timing was off, or the variety of sweets available was really limited and not very appetizing. I settled for a dulce de leche brownie and a flat white. The flat white was not that great but was the usual Vancouver's standard (i.e. not very good when compared to Australia). I really wish all baristas in Vancouver will learn how to make a good flat white, with the ratio of microfoam and crema etc. The brownie was not bad but not that wow either. The cookies looked very cute though. The cafe was full when I was there but it did not really have a friendly or cozy vibe. This is not a place to make a special trip for.
Such a cute little coffee shop! Right on Main with a lot of seating outside. The weather might not be ideal right now but the options are available. The restroom is open for guests. Coffee was delicious. They always have good baked goods as well. Recommend!
Liberty Bakery and Cafe is a definite stop when on Main Street. I love the warmth and sweet smell when you first walk through the door. I'm especially happy that there is outdoor seating because I can bring my pup along. The staff are great because they will fill up a bowl for your dog. The location is good too because you can relax with a warm cup and people watch. We ordered lattes which were prepared well, just the right amount of foam. I love milk which is probably why I enjoy lattes and Liberty does it right. I can taste the coffee and the milk. We also ordered their lemon loaf and we were NOT disappointed, when they say lemon, they mean it! You can taste the citrus in EVERY bite! It paired quite nicely with our lattes.

Love the vibe and the food. We got Mushroom danish, London fog, matcha latte and chicken sandwich. In my opinion the sourdough bread and pastry is delicious. People do stay for studying, reading and knitting but no outlet and secure wifi (just Telus). The store is a little crowded so don't bring big strollers or backpack but vibe is 10/10 and the store closes at 4 and reopens at 5:30. Great location for a quick sip and break after checking out the cute boutiques around the area. read more

"Liberty is a family-friendly Nordic bakery, using fresh local ingredients. Designed by artists, Liberty's elegant and homey décor is as perfect for a coffee date with friends as for a family lunch. Open for breakfast and lunch seven days a week." The reason I am giving a one star review is because they were not friendly at all. I did some research the night before and was looking forward to coming early, and studying while enjoying a breakfast sandwich and some coffee. Where did my expectations for a breakfast sandwich and coffee come from? Just like anyone else, from looking at the menu, of course. So I ordered said breakfast sandwich, and I was rewarded with a curt, rude, response. "We don't have breakfast sandwiches." So I showed him the menu online. Which I guess he felt should be met by another curt response full of attitude "We don't serve sandwiches until lunch." If I were him I would have apologized and gave an explanation for the inaccuracy. So then I said, well I guess the website should be updated then. To which he replied "Yea." read more
This bakery/cafe is a pretty cute spot. The baked goods are decent and the coffee is good but what I usually come here for are the cookies! The salted chocolate chip. They are probably my favourite in the city. But yesterday I picked up 6 of them and I literally threw in the trash because they were so stale. I wouldn't even pay half price for day olds, so selling it for regular price and then getting it home and biting into something stale is just really disappointing and makes me not want to come back to a place because I hate questioning how fresh the food is going to be. read more

Really cute spot. Wall decor and rugs on the floor made it feel really homey. Had a croissant and an iced americano and was surprised how great the croissant was - almost perfect! Coffee was fine but not amazing. Service was friendly and quick. Will definitely come back here again! read more

The space is adorable, my daughter enjoyed her sandwich and I enjoyed my coffee .I had a "stockholm" not sure what that is exactly and i guess i had imagined one thing and got another so I will have to return and try something else. Great place to watch Main street go by. read more

This is the coolest little place! The older building and the seating space is so nice I want to go back again soon. For lunch we both had the classic grilled cheese with a black bean soup (I've never had black bean soup before) and it was delicious. Perfect portion for lunch. The home made ketchup was perfect for dipping. The paintings on the white walls were very cool, all portraits. I want to eat there again just to do a photo shoot. read more

5 stars because the totoro cookie was adorable and delicious! The cutest gingerbread cookie and was soft and chewy. Got a really refreshing ice coffee (Elysian coffee -- one of my favourite). Loved the decor and ambiance. read more

It is a pretty cute cafe, but unfortunately my first visit here was a little underwhelming. I'd seen some pictures on Instagram of some delicious looking cakes (I believe they are called princess cakes?) but the overall selection of baked goods when I arrived was a little bit lacking (although perhaps that was also my own fault, for arriving an hour and a half before closing time) and they didn't have any princess cakes at all. I did manage to snag the last Totoro cookie though, which was tasty (it's gingerbread) and a small pot of tea. The genmai cha is fantastic, with a strong roasted flavour, and the teapot is adorable with its little knitted tea cozy. The server working there was a little brusque and overall seemed pretty unenthused to be working there, which kind of took away from the experience. But the decor is lovely, bright, and cheerful. read more
