    If you time it right this breakfast is amazing. I adore the coffee. Best latte ever. The GF waffle had to go back but they comp'd us for it. Lively atmosphere and fun music. Did I mention the coffee? Solid service and no pressure to move the table made catching up over yummy food fun!

    Cutie little waffle bar on Seymour. Went in to try their savoury and sweet waffles. Was in a waffley mood . Had the ham and cheese waffle with a nicely presented salad. The savoury waffle was a bit soft and the ham a bit dry. I believe if you come in early it would be better, but the flavour was delicious . P.s..Please add more cheese The salad was crispy and fresh. Now, the matcha, dark chocolate and raspberry waffles were spot on. Amazing flavour and texture. The churro waffle I found the sugar coating to be a little lost because the waffle itself was moist and soft. The server was attentive and polite. Thank you for the good service. The atmosphere was brilliant. I loved all of the different elements from stainless on parts of the tables to wood lattice and the walls. Nice details! I will be back again for more delicious waffles and hot cocoa.

    We ordered the 21 mini waffle set, which came with the following flavors: Pistachio Vanilla Custard Biscoff Lemon Filled Dark Chocolate Raspberry Original I tried the pistachio, biscoff, and raspberry. The raspberry was my favorite. I was surprised at how much I liked it. The waffle was sprinkled with freeze dried raspberries which added a nice tartness to the sweetness of the raspberry flavored chocolate. The pistachio was a bit disappointing, because the topping tasted like plain white chocolate and the only pistachio flavor that I tasted was from the toasted pistachios that were sprinkled on top. The waffle itself was good, I just wish the chocolate topping tasted of pistachio as well.

    smashed avocado & brussels benedict

    Yum! I'm not usually a savory waffle person but this was very tasty. The waffle was crunchy yet soft. The Peruvian peppers on the smashed avocado were excellent!! I thought the small waffles would be sweeter and more flavorful so giving a 4 instead of a 5. I tried the strawberry one. also got the raspberry lemonade, it was quite tart and not very sweet. i found it lacking in raspberry flavor and for the price, I expected more quantity staff was great and i enjoyed the vibe & location of this spot! i would go for a sweet waffle next time as my main to try the difference.

    Salmon benedict

    Okay wow, best waffles ive had in a while. I had the salmon benedict. Large eggs, big salmon portions, the waffle texture was crispy and soft, so good.

    Fun place to try for waffle lovers. The menu features sweet and savoury waffles great for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. You can dine in and order from the full menu of Belgian waffles or grab a mini liege waffle and beverage from the to-go counter. I've seen them get busy, but when I went for a weekday lunch with a friend, there was no wait for a table. I tried the brie waffle (brie cheese, apples, and greens with balsamic vinaigrette) when I went for brunch, and also have tried their churro and pistachio liege waffles. I got the brie waffle with their gluten-friendly buckwheat waffle since I really like buckwheat. The flavour of the buckwheat waffle was nice but it was very airy and a little dry. The brie topping was great. The menu changes seasonally so I don't think they're currently offering this version of the brie waffle, but they have a different baked brie waffle on the menu now. The liege waffles are very good - these are rich but still fluffy. The churro liege had the dulce de leche custard inside which was a REALLY nice treat. I think the churro liege is also out of the rotation at the time of writing, but they have other custard-stuffed flavours. The liege waffles are rather sweet, but they make a good occasional treat. They also have a full coffee bar. Their London fog was pretty good. The dine-in service was kind of slow, but the staff were very pleasant. I definitely recommend the place if you like waffles and want to try some unique waffle flavours!

    Great food, service and ambience. But the food felt generally over priced and over hyped. We were looking for a simple breakfast place that doesn't break the bank. Maybe we'll keep looking for another spot.

    Lavender London Fog Latte
    Christina A.

    Walked into Nero to a very warm and welcoming hello and seated immediately. Since it was my first time I was taking a little long to decide but the waitress was patient and checked if I had any questions. Finally after debating with myself for 10 minutes I went with the strawberry and chocolate waffle and a lavender London fog latte. You get 2 options for the waffles which were explained that one was more crispy and the other more soft. I went with the crispy waffle. When my dish arrived it was so beautiful I didn't want to touch it. I also was surprised at how big it was and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to eat it all myself. I was wrong. The waffle was so light and crispy that even though it looked heavy and like a lot, it really wasn't. The texture was perfect and the crispy lightness was complemented by the strawberries and chocolate. I enjoyed every single bite. I understood the hype. The lavender London fog was disappointing. I didn't get any lavender flavour and it was a bit watered down for my liking. In any case the waffle more than made up for it. I'll be back and want to try the liege waffles next.

    We stopped by for brunch. There was about a 20 minute wait. We had a mimosa and a Bloody Mary. The Bloody Mary was garnished with a cucumber slice and a WAFFLE!! it was tasty! I ordered the smashed avocado and I added smoked salmon. It was delicious. My husband ordered the chocolate with the strawberries and cream. That was good too. Will definitely come back for more waffle goodness. 10/10.

    This place was good. The only problem is my food sat in the window for like 10 minutes before it came. Location was great. The waitress is really nice and friendly.

    Eaten at Nero's many times since my high school days, but surprisingly my first time writing a review for them. Delicious waffles. Great ambiance. Amazing service. Not sure if our server was Djason, or that's just the cashier name on the receipt. But service was stellar albeit he got our waffle order wrong. But happy mistake, since we felt too full from our dinner previously to eat what I originally wanted. He was super friendly and helpful. Absolutely "LOVED" the tiramisu latte 1/2 sweet.

    [Updated Review for visit in Oct 2022] This is my second visit to Vancouver and I loved Nero so much back in 2018 that I made it a point to come again. It's a very cute brunch shop in downtown Vancouver with delicious food as well. I would recommend coming early as this place is very popular and there can be a wait! My boyfriend and I ordered: - Smoked Salmon Benedict - Black sesame mini liege waffle - Cranberry orange mini liege waffle - Matcha latte The smoked salmon benedict was definitely a surprise. They use a different batter than the liege waffles so it's lighter and fluffier, and the hollandaise sauce was light rather than heavy (which it definitely looked heavy) Smoked Salmon Benedict ($21) - I did not think this was anything special, however, my friends loved it! They preferred it over the sweet waffle we got. The mini liege waffles were a bit more disappointing as they were difficult to cut through, but the flavors were very much present. Next time I'll try one of their signature waffle creations rather than opting for a liege waffle. Our server was also super nice and accommodating - unfortunately I couldn't get his name - I wanted a matcha latte like I did back in 2018 and it was no longer on their menu, but he was able to still put one together for me!

We ordered the following: Tiramisu Latte Caprese Bite London Fog Apple Cookie Cherry Matcha Tonic Tiramisu Sea Salt Caramel Gelato The Cherry Matcha Tonic was pretty but wasn't too crazy about the flavor. I should have just gone with my original gut instinct and chosen a hot beverage like Hojicha Latte or something like that. I was sort of thirsting for something cooler for a change though, and the Cherry Matcha Tonic was the first "cool" drink that caught my eye so I decided to go for it. Won't do that again. Everything else was good though. The Sea Salt Caramel Gelato was the star of the show! In the store there's a sign beneath their gelato section that says "Canadian Gelato Champion". I believe it after tasting the Sea Salt Caramel! They had Nama Chocolates too. I was tempted to get some but...only so much a person's wallet and waistline can handle at one time. Will try the Nama Chocolate some other time. You can order in person here, or you can place an "Express" order at the Kiosk. We tried both ways of ordering. Ordered at the counter first and then after finished my Cherry Matcha Tonic decided I wanted to try the Sea Salt Gelato so then tried ordering that from the Kiosk. Most of the parking in this area is paid but I lucked out and got a free spot right around the corner from this place!

Knowing how good 49th Parallel is with coffee I thought I'd try their version of the London Fog. I wasn't disappointed. In fact it was best London Fog I've ever had. I've had them at other places but I've never seen a preparation like 49th. They use loose leaf Earl Gray tea in a tall paper tea bag. They put the bag in your cup pour the steamed milk in and the tea steeps right into the milk. It's the smoothest London Fog I've had and isn't cloyingly sweet like many I've had.

I was in need of a snack and this was a short walk from our hotel. 49th Parallel is well known for their thoughtfully sourced, house-roasted coffees and their cult-favorite donuts, but they also offer a small menu of sandwiches if you're looking for something more filling. It wasn't too busy when we got there, though most of the tables were taken. We ordered a mix of sweet and savory: the chestnut brûlée donut, a salted caramel old fashioned, and a couple of breakfast sandwiches--the Doug and the Cascadia--both served on soft, buttery brioche buns. My other half also grabbed an Americano to go with it all. The chestnut brûlée donut was my fav of the bunch. The chestnut flavor was perfectly balanced--nice and light. The sandwiches were also good, especially thanks to that pillowy soft brioche. Overall, 49th Parallel was the perfect stop for a small, simple snack! Would recommend.
