Found this cute little coffee shop tucked away in a little corner of Burnaby and we were delighted…read moreto be welcomed with such warm hospitality, tasty drinks and treats. It is a small space, but full of personality and charm. We ordered a Matcha Latte ($7), Japanese Latte ($7), and Matcha & Black Sesame Moffin ($1.50/each). I personally enjoy my matcha unsweetened so I loved that this one was served without sweeteners, and the matcha is lighter bodied with earthy flavours. The Japanese latte is made with coffee beans from Japan, and I'm not a coffee drinker usually so I can't comment much other than the fact it tasted mellow but had depth. The mochi muffins were not too sweet and deliciously chewy! I'd love to come back to try their hojicha latte!

I was very impressed and definitely want to go back the shop as soon as I can. I want to try their baking goods next time.

The latte was good and just right. One thing was that there wasn't a lot of food items. Maybe they were sold out of stuff as all they had was a couple of coffee buns and a croissant. It was 11am so I hoped they were making more but after 20 minutes, they didn't bring any other pastries/food items.

For just $16.99, the set came with a fluffy strawberry chiffon cake, ice cream with dacaron, and chocolate-dipped strawberries with pistachio, plus a drink of your choice. I went with the Iced Strawberry Matcha and it was light, refreshing, and perfectly paired with the sweets. I also tried their matcha mochi, which was soft and chewy, and their buttery shortbread cookies in matcha, pistachio, and earl grey flavors--each one had a rich, homemade taste. The Shanghai Fog was also super smooth and comforting. They also have locally sourced coffee beans for purchase. Everything was beautifully presented, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend visiting while the Sakura menu is still available!

For selection I love and prefer the single origins (especially South and Central America and Indonesia) but they have great blends with clever names, half-caf, and decaf for those inclined.

Kyle McLaughlin is a big fan too! Agent Cooper knows a fine cup of coffee when he sees one. If you love good coffee you have to try this!
