It is a very cool trendy little spot with plenty of natural light and seating both outside and inside ...though the indoor seating is somewhat limited. They had a nice display of baked products...perhaps next time. The coffee was good...not overly bitter. I like the chill vibe and relaxed ambiance. It was a positive coffee experience.

There's 6 x 2-person tables inside along with maybe 4/5 outside as well. I managed to snag the last table for my friend and I but it definitely got less busy after 11am so keep this in mind if you're visiting. I tried the hibiscus lemonade and it was really good! I also appreciated that they had some samples of pastries to try which i imagine is because they just opened. The sample of the cheddar jalapeno scroll was delicious but not sure I would purchase it for close to its $8 price tag. The staff were really kind and i'd definitely come back to try some other drinks!

They were showing each other the flavors, and shapes, and designs. Sweet plus savory. Cutting them in half and sharing. It was the least we could do to bring these high quality goodies, made by high quality bakers, to these high quality nurses in the cardiac unit for my mother-in-law. We were so impressed with the staff at L'atelier. They know their stuff and their recommendations are top notch. The bakery itself is so cute and modern and fun. I loved that you could sit outside even in the rain because they have stellar permanent awnings.

I also tried their Matcha Mango Yuzu Cruffin - there's a lot going on, but the mango yuzu cream inside was light and refreshing, and the actual pastry dough was aptly crispy and fluffy.

Due to no visible parking available, we opted to pay for parking on the street. I felt rushed from the crew member who took my order and had an average tasting matcha ube latte. Boo! I read later on Yelp that Nemesis will offer you a table while you wait for your beverage to be made, bring it to your table and that there is free underground parking! My bad for not reading the tips from my fellow Yelpers first! I was disappointed this time but will visit again to give an update review.

Designed in classic - and classy - French cafe style, you know you're walking into something meaningful. You're first greeted by shelves of French products. Lots of olives. Bottles of balsamic vinegar, sheer vinegar,.and even tarragon vinegar. Bowls and baking products. A fr8dge with soups and even eggs! We came for bread and pastries so we simply bought pain du jour apple and walnut, two danishes and a latte. (I personally think they should change it to French with cafe au lait. At least that's what I grew up with in Vancouver until the invasion of SB.) All were very good nut the made to order sandwiches at the next table were so presentable that I must try nextby

As soon as you walk in, you're greeted by shelves stocked with French jams and a variety of imported products for sale, which adds to the authentic feel. The menu is surprisingly extensive for a café, featuring quiches, sandwiches, and other items made fresh to order. We kept it simple and ordered lattes along with two Danish pastries. Everything was delicious, especially the pastries topped with fresh fruit. The vintage paintings on the walls and soft French music create a warm, relaxing atmosphere. This is easily one of the best French bakeries I've visited.

The dalgona latte was a bit too sweet for me, but that is expected with dalgona. The pesto chicken panini was amazing and full of flavor. A great place for tasty food, creative drinks, and a comfortable atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Parking is available on the side streets. The place has that bare modern hipster look, with concrete floors, high ceilings, and white tiles. Tables are of the old vintage wood type. Metal chairs aren't the most comfortable, but they do the job. Seating is adequate. There is a hidden section with more seats tucked away in the far corner. Layout is a bit strange in this respect. Staff are friendly. No complaints. Coffee is pretty decent. The place also has brunch and sandwich options, but I didn't try this time.

There were lots of free spots available during the early afternoon mid-week (which is rare for most Vancouver cafes) and there's even a little nook in the back with a big table that's great for co working! We opted to sit in the front which was perfect because it had outlets and pretty good wifi. As for service, the staff were all super attentive and friendly so can't ask for anything else here! While the drinks we got were good, the food was a little lacking to me - I got the Margherita croissant which had no taste and was just an oily mess - but perhaps I just got the wrong thing. I'd try something else next time!

Topped with a hand-piped sakura flower by Megu of M Tokyo Confectionery. I just want to say... It was sooo good! Matcha vanilla soft serve's matcha flavor was strong, very soft and creamy and so delicious. Then, Matcha rice crispy squares paired with soft serve so well. I could not really taste matcha from rice crispy, may be because I mixed with soft serve. And there were strawberry jelly, strawberry puree, and strawberry whip at the bottom. When I mixed together with soft serve and rice crispy, It is so addictive. This item was definitely one of the best item at this festival in 2026. Presentation was so beautiful. I really want to get it again. As usual , owner was very friendly and provided nice service, however, one staff attitude was not really pleasant.

Unfortunately, the drink itself was quite disappointing. Since it's vegan, it was made with coconut cream instead of dairy, but the overall flavor was light and bland. The coconut foam didn't add much richness, and for a $9.50 drink, it felt underwhelming. It reminded me more of wheatgrass than matcha. I've had Whisk's matcha chocolate drink during hot chocolate festival before, and actually enjoyed them. Maybe will come again for their regular matcha drink.

It was a huge hit with everyone! The 6 inch cake was $69 and I added a customized birthday message on chocolate for an extra $3 which was a nice personal touch. They also offer a gluten free option for an additional $10 which is great for accommodating different dietary needs. One thing to keep in mind is that you'll want to order online well in advance because their cakes sell out quickly. I can definitely see why. They're fantastic! I'll be ordering from Gary's Patisserie again for future celebrations.

Have seen Gary's fresh mango cakes all over IG and with my Dad's recent birthday I convinced my…read moresister to order one, instead of our usual mango cake from Saint Germaine bakery. Gary's only allows to order the fresh mango cakes up to one week ahead to ensure they have enough ripe mangos, which I admire their dedication. We ordered the 6 inch cake for 9 people (7 adults and 2 kids) and everyone got a thin to average slice. The cake is definitely prettier than the other fresh mango cakes on the market, has a lot more mangos that are perfectly ripe and sweet, there is less wipped cream, and the sponge cake is softer. The family agreed that Gary's has the best fresh mango cake but at $69 for a 6 inch cake, versus $43 for a 6 inch mango cake from Saint Germaine, a cake from Gary's is definitely a treat and for special occasions. Is Gary's worth the premium price? I think so but not everyone in my family agreed. One thing to note: Gary's do offer cake in a jar that's $8.50 each. When we went, they had a BOGO deal with the mango cake jars. My nephew asked my sister to buy the BOGO deal knowing that the 6 inch cake was not going to be enough, as the kids like having a second slice of cake.
