My coworker recommended this vegan cafe to me so I decided to give it a try! They had a wide variety of baked goods, some unique ones that caught my eye for next time would be the lavender lemon cookie and the cherry frangipane tart.
When I got to the front, I saw a summer feature menu and was pulled in. I was excited to try one of their summer features: the blueberry matcha particularly since I had never tried one before. Unfortunately, I think I received a regular matcha or they didn't hear me say "aux bleuets" because there was no blueberry in sight or in flavour It was also a bit too watery for me perhaps because I opted to try it with coconut milk since the almond or oat milk options came with a 50 cent additional charge. I'd pass on this.
However the redeeming quality was their matcha raspberry muffin! It was a 5/5 and probably the best vegan muffin I've had (or even muffin in general). It had the perfect moistness and texture with bits of raspberry and chocolate chips. Though it was a bit more pricy at $4.75, the quality was amazing and I'd love to go back and try some of their other baked goods.
Overall, a very quaint spot attached to Astoria Bistro and located by many offices, I'd say their vegan baked goods would seem to be the highlight. read more
