    I came here to catch up with some friends on a busy Saturday afternoon as the original place we were scheduled to meet up at was too full. This is a decently sized space with a good amount of seating. I love seeing the spread of goods at all the Purebread locations and picking what is appetizing to the eye. The coffee and food weren't bad but it's definitely the variety that is its strongest suit.

    Sample honey walnut sourdough bread

    A great place for sweet treats and coffee/tea. There's a good selection of baked goodies - cookies, bars, cakes, breads and scones for all occasions. It was worth the drive after reading the reviews. Food: 5/5 - we tried the brownie (gluten free) and blackberry lemon bar. Our favourite was the brownie. Both were tasty and fresh. If you need a cake for a special occasion, they have whole cakes and loaves available. The prices were reasonable considering it was good quality. They had a couple of samplings near the cash register. Atmosphere: 5/5 - seating is available with a nice vibe to the place Service: 5/5 - servers were friendly. I'll be back to try their other tasty treats. If you're looking for sweet or savoury treats for any occasion that is tasty and of 'Pure' goodness, look no further than Purebread.

    Amazing and delicious baked goods, savoury and sweet. Purebread does not disappoint. Currently they serve you at the door, and have their pastries displayed in the window. It was my first time at this location, and it looks a bit more spacious than their W Hastings location. I like how they are keeping their baked goods at the front - still visible to help customers decide, but seems more sanitary. Went a bit crazy and tried the following items, which I will rank from most to least favourite: Bacon, cheddar, chive scone ~$4.65: loaded with sooo much cheese, lots of bacon bits, tons of flavour Cheddar and bacon cornbread ~$4.50: super cheesy, very moist cornbread packed with flavour Hominy pie ~$6: tasty potatoes, peas, and onion mixture inside a flaky pastry Chubby chocolate cookie $3.50: so chocolaty like a brownie, crumbly too with walnuts, very decadent and delicious Bacon and egg brioche ~$6: very buttery, packed with an egg and cheese baked inside, bacon was not too visible, think it might be Canadian bacon, but could definitely taste it Apple crumble tart/mini pie ~$6: like an apple pie in a butter tart form, very good and not too sweet Asiago and rosemary loaf $7: light taste of asiago cheese and rosemary Coconut macaroon with dark chocolate ~$4: a bit on the sweet side, but I love coconut so I like it, and the dark chocolate works well It was hard to rank these items, as everything was super good and delicious, but I do think I would prefer the jalapeno and cheddar loaf over the asiago and rosemary (they didn't have it that day). Yes, maybe it's a bit on the pricey side, but I think the taste and quality of their baked goods, plus how packed everything was with bacon or nuts etc. makes it worth it. Overall, I was not disappointed with anything I got, I'd get them all again but maybe not because I'd also want to try other things as their selection is so extensive! Yum!

    Cheese and blackberry scones, Americano

    As soon as I walked in I was pleasantly surprised by the number of bakery choices and their presentation. Purebread is so much than bread, the atmosphere and service is warm and inviting. The servers have cute little hair scarves, which leave you with a country, homespun ambiance. As usual we had Americanos with a savoury and sweet scone. The cheese scone was probably the best we've ever had, even though the centre was slightly undercooked. The blackberry scone was amazing.! Coffee was pretty good, the condiment station was a little small but very well stocked. There are a few tables and a bench seating area inside which was very nice. Overall very clean, well organized and definitely a first class coffee shop/ bakery.

    A bakery in Kitsilano with a beautiful display window of various breads and pastries. Tons of vegan items and gluten free items. However, the only vegan AND gluten free item was a chocolate chip cookie. It was big, thick, crunchy and yummy. My niece ordered a flourless brownie but they gave her a vegan one. When she went back to inform them, they gave her the correct one and let her keep the other one as well.

    I'm a big fan of all baked goods, so when I came through the area to have lunch with a friend I had to drag her here to grab something to eat afterwards. Purebread has quite the variety of baked goods available and it took me a second to sort through everything they have available. I was pretty pleased with the food I bought (Cookies and Cream loaf and the drunken apple blondie) and thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm definitely going to get the cookies and cream loaf again... I can't speak for the coffee that they offer, but I'm excited to try more of their baked goods.

    My trip to Purebread in Kits was sooo joyful! I love looking at chocolates and pastries and little desserts! I worked nearby and thought to buy myself and colleagues a mini Flourless Chocolate Cake for being amazing and we all loved it!! It was some of our first times and I am not really into dark chocolate, but this one wasn't as dark as I thought it would be. It was definitely very filling and a tad bit too sweet for me as I had to drink a lot of water after a few bites. Friendly and knowledgable staff. Clean space. I will come again!

    coffee cake, morning glory, chocolate chip bar and outrageous brownie
    Chloe C.

    This was a while back, and it was my first time visiting Purebread. When I walked in I was literally in shock because I had never seen that many breads/cakes/pastries in my life. Like holy cow I actually thought I died and went to heaven for half a second there. Anyway, I ended up walking away with way too many pastries and a wallet that was very sad and empty, but yolo, I guess. I don't even know how they come up with so many unique items, so props to them. There are many flourless/vegan/GF/nut free options as well. Flourless chocolate cake (4.5/5) So rich and delicious! It's super decadent and even more amazing when heated up. Make sure you grab some friends to share because this thing is too much for one person to handle! Ooey gooey chocolate chip bars (4.5/5) Sounded amazing, tasted amazing. I've never seen anything like it before. It's basically the love child of a chocolate chip cookie and a brownie. Outrageous brownie (4.5/5) Very similar to the flourless chocolate cake in that it's super rich. Tasted amazing though. Flourless chocolate chip cookie (3.5/5) Pretty decent, but obviously not my favourite of the bunch. It wasn't really that memorable, compared with other cookies like the ones from Small Victory. Morning glories (3.5/5) This was some sort of apple and cinnamon puff thing coated in cinnamon sugar. I'm not a fan of cinnamon and apple, so I didn't try this, but my mom said it tasted pretty good and was quite unique. Coffee cake (3.5/5) This was quite unique as well, as it was shaped like a lava cake. I thought that the coffee flavour could be richer, but this tasted pretty good heated up, as it became kind of like a coffee lava cake. Overall, I love this place and I will be back again! They have so many options that constantly change, and I can't wait to see what they come up with next. My only slight complaint is that items are on the sweet side, so make sure you come with a friend!

    Apple Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting
    Angela K.

    So nice that Purebread has opened up a location right near my home! They have most of the same amazing baked goods as their Gastown shop, with a couple different items as well. Staff were offering up a bunch of different samples while I was there, and were really friendly and helpful. I ended up getting a piece of their Caramel Apple Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting. Cake isn't usually my first choice, but Im glad I tried this one. It was SO good! I actually went back the next day to get another piece, but they didn't have any. I'll have to try again another time.

    Whoopie cookie, lemon bar
    Stephanie L.

    I rarely go to bakery's nowadays, but if I do, this will definitely be my go to! When you walk in, all the treats are so nicely laid out. It's almost impossible to choose! I loved that they have so much variety. Bars, cookies, pastries, brownies, cakes, breads and more! My sister and I decided to get a couple of things to share. The banana brownie was a winner though, and such a generous portion. I never had a whoopie cookie before, but after trying one I will definitely be back for more. My sister really enjoyed the lemon bar. Not too sweet and not too sour. Definitely a bakery you want to check out if you want a ton of variety! Will definitely be back.

    Christmas Season Special Item - Christmas Tree Croissant and Kuegelhoph…read more Christmas tree croissant with red stripes filled with hazelnut pastry cream and bright passionfruit jam. Dough was very buttery and crispy. I could taste strong butter flavor which stood out. Passionfruit jam dominated over hazelnut cream. It lean on sweeter side. I prefer more hazelnut cream. However, the croissant itself was one of the best. Very delicious. Holiday Chocolate Kugelhopf~ dark chocolate sweet bread studded with chocolate chips, citrus peels, and almond praline, rolled in sugar. I really liked kugelhoph's dough and almond praline! It wasn't too heavy, lighter texture and praline wasn't too sweet. So, sugar coating paired with dough very well. I would like to get this one again! Overall, I really enjoyed both Christmas items. Their baking goods was always top notch.

It's my first time here. It's busy. Lots of seats. They have a glass covered patio, which is a nice extension. I ordered a double shot of ice espresso. It was a warm day but needed caffeine. I like they have lots of choices of sweets and donuts and their portions are big. The tables are small though, and a bit cramped inside, unlike what I'm used to at Main St. There's also minimal wall outlets for laptops or phone charging. So make sure you have your devices charged before coming here to work or study. Outside it's walking distance from other stores snd restaurants. It's a nice commercial neighborhood. I recommend visiting it after going to the beach down the hill.

    I am writing this review because my email to them went unanswered…read more I am shocked and disappointed at the way I was treated after spending $40. I am a HUGE 49th fan and love their dougnuts and coffee. Whenever I have friends in town, or someone needs a suggestion on where to visit, I always say "49th has really good coffee and doughnuts". Unfortunately, my mind has changed, and I don't see myself ever recommending this location. As an avid coffee drinker, I am pretty picky on where I choose to have coffee and love the cafe culture in Vancouver. My mom loves doughnuts and we had come all the way from Langley for a day in Kits, so I recommended we go to 49th! I spent about $40 on 4 doughnuts, 2 maple sea salt lattes and a drip coffee. The maple sea salt lattes looked beautiful and my doughnut was delicious as usual (big fan of the french crueller). Unfortunately, our maple sea salt lattes were very very strong and had no maple or sea salt flavoring in my opinion. I decided to ask the girl at the register if we could please get a different drink because it was super strong and didn't taste good. I was met with SO much attitude, i was actually shocked. I went into it very friendly and politely asked for an alternate drink as i did spend $12 on these two drinks (and life gets expensive!!). She then goes "well, you probably don't like the taste of coffee then".... I actually didn't know how to respond. But i did say "I'm a huge 49th fan and love coffee!". Then I had asked how many shots are in the small and she said "2". I then had asked if we could get a new/different drink and she goes "I'll give it to you this one time, but next time you'll have to pay." This is NOT the way to treat a paying customer. It felt so rude and accusatory. I very rarely come to Kits, so she wouldn't have recognized me and am an honest girl who works hard for my money. When the customer comes up politely, you offer to make it right. I hope the next person that comes up not satisfied with their drink is treated a lot better than how I was.

And the girl who took my order, as well as the girl who rang me up at the cash, could NOT have been more aloof. I smiled and tried to make a little small talk, especially with the girl at the cash when I took out my debit card and asked how to pay (she just pointed at the tap symbol on the machine but my card is not tap-enabled. I always joke with people about this). This girl would not even look at me. Zero eye contact. No "thank you", nada. I just got really cold vibes from the two of them there at the counter. (At least when I picked up my tea at the beverage counter, the guy there made eye contact and semi smiled). (Side note: the staff at the Yaletown site have always been super pleasant and friendly, and this really makes a difference. To me, anyhow). Contrary to another reviewer's posting, the restaurant and the washroom was very clean when I visited here. No issues there. Honestly, I'm not sure I'll return to this site.
