    Overall a very chill coffeeshop, with decent coffee and pastries. I liked the poster on their wall of the coffee/milk ratio of common espresso drinks. I also liked how they make their pastries in house, you can smell the pleasant aroma of baked goods the second you walk in. I ordered a cappuccino and a blueberry kolach. The cappuccino was tasty and made very swiftly after ordering. The blueberry kolach was tasty, not too sweet, a bit crunchy, and overall paired well with my cappuccino. I will definitely return to try their pourovers and another pastry!

    Matcha latte and cherry tomato danish
    Karen S.

    Charming ambience with an airy, relaxed feel. Very clean, well-tended interior. It was challenging to select from the pastry case because everything looked so tempting. I chose a cherry tomato danish which they warmed for me. It was fluffy, satisfying and struck a nice balance between sweet and savory, with intensely flavourful roasted tomatoes. My matcha was a little lean in flavour and was served barely warm...I ended with a slice of carrot cake which was surprisingly dry (for carrot cake). It was more like an austere reimagining of carrot cake but enjoyable once I adjusted my expectations. 3.5 for the food but an overall 4.0 experience.

    Vanilla latte, cortado, and matcha strawberry danish

    This coffee spot was right by our hotel so we stopped by here for morning coffee. The cutest inside with plenty of tables for working. I got the vanilla latte and the matcha strawberry danish. The vanilla latte was almost all milk, could not get a strong coffee flavor, did not love it. The matcha pastry was okay, tasted a day old. Coffee didn't hit the spot, but great interior and spot to catch up or do some work.

    Cozy coffee shop. Great coffee. They offer a variety of croissants. They were generous in size, flaky and delicious.

    I visited here during my stay in Vancouver. It was around 8 a.m. on Saturday morning, but several customers were already sitting in the store. I chose Blue Matcha Latte from the drink menu. I was curious about what it would taste like. It had an indescribably gentle taste. And I bought cheese scone, custard and raspberry pastries. The pastry was good because it was less sweet. The scones taste warm and nice, too. I was going to have breakfast inside the store, but it wasn't very comfortable, so I took it back to the hotel. I'm looking forward to relaxing in the store next time.

    I love places that are open early and serve good coffee. But this place didn't make the cut. Got their croissant and cap, I can honestly say the croissant is pretty good but not the cap though. But what made it worst was the staff there were a bit racist I couldn't tell at the beginning but I was able to see how they treated other customers when ordering their drinks. They greeted them nicely and says thank you; however, when I said "thank you" one of the staff just looked away and ignored me. Well, it's a little sad for a cute place like this to have this such treatment. Hope they can be better!

    Outstanding coffee and pastries. We went daily during our time in Vancouver. Got the nanaimo and the banana muffin, so good! I tried the butterfly matcha latte, matcha latte, regular latte, and the London fog latte. My husband got the cortado each time. The coffee is delectable, some of the best I've ever had. The space itself has WiFi, many tables, quiet music playing, and a super cozy vibe, plus free water. I loved it!

    Good coffee from a selection of good roasts. The pour over is done right. The staff are friendly. It's a small place with nice ambiance. Only five small tables, one large one and two bar height tables.

    Hummus & Veggie Sandwich, Ferroro Rocher, Milk Oolong
    Dana S.

    This coffee shop is a little hidden but but very welcoming. The interior feels very down-to-earth and organic, a nice change of pace from the ultra-modern coffee bars that dominate downtown. Friendly service from the barista. I noticed that they have a great tea list and a bigger selection of pastries that i would've expected from the size of the shop. There are a good options for vegans (one sandwich and a few pastries). I stopped here for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and drink. Everything had that homemade "prepared with care" quality. I got the hummus and veggie sandwich, a "Ferrero Rocher" (their homemade version, which happens to be vegan), and a milk oolong tea. The sourdough they used for the sandwich was amazing! There are plenty of hummus sandwiches out there but this was definitely one of the better ones. I really liked their Ferrero Rocher too (more than I like the actual candy), it had a very rich cocoa flavour. The milk oolong ("milk oolong" is the type of tea, not oolong with milk) was nice and delicate. The prices are very reasonable, especially for downtown. My total was just under $20. You can pay with card, but there was a sign at the register saying that they prefer cash payment, so this is the time to use it if you have it.

    This was a surprisingly nice spot to stumble into. We were just looking for coffee and maybe some breakfast. Servers were very pleasant and patient. Big space with great ambiance and a variety of seating options. Latte was delicious. I enjoyed the egg and ham English muffin. Sounds simple but it was really well made. Cardamom bun was kind of dry but the middle was soaked in some delicious berry compote. I didn't taste the cardamom at all. Kids loved their cinnamon buns.

    Remnants of a delicious banana bread and not-too-sweet cinnamon bun
    Christina K.

    My son and I stopped in around 9am on a Saturday morning. While there was a small group of teens ordering all the things ahead of us, the two women on staff turned out our order quickly! The cinnamon bun we ordered was delicious - not too sweet but a perfect compliment to my flat white. The banana bread was devoured by my 10 year old - he absolutely loved it! The crowd was present but not terribly loud - the vibe is calm and I could see myself coming regularly if I lived here. I highly suggest this spot if you're in the neighborhood!

    We came here on a Sunday morning. The babka tasted like tap water--was not sweet at all. The coffee was okay, not great. Our cups, cutleries, and plates were all dirty (they had dried bits of food on them). The sandwiches were okay, but for the same price you could go to a cleaner cafe.

    Cuter than the other coffee shops around and their cups too! Their special flavors provide more variety too. Def a great place to chat or do some work. Very quiet environment. Bonus: it's open quite early too if you need that boost to start your day!

The cappuccino was also well done; the coffee cut nicely through the milk and stayed balanced. The hot chocolate deserves a special mention -- one of the best we've had. My kid finished the whole thing, which says a lot. For food, we tried the ham and cheese pastry, which was light, crispy, and nicely melty inside. The marshmallow popcorn chocolate cookie was delicious and chewy, though it felt slightly overbaked -- most of the chew came from the marshmallow rather than the dough. The breakfast sandwich was decent if you're in a hurry, but nothing particularly unique and the least impressive item we tried. The aesthetic was dark and retro, fitting perfectly with the Gastown vibe. Warm lighting near the seating made it a cozy spot to get some work done or relax before heading out. Overall, I'd happily come back for the coffee and warm snacks. Great spot for small groups -- I'd say up to about six people.

I saw a Cinnamon Honey Latte on the board and decided to order that for my drink. These days, I can never tell when the word "Latte" is being used to describe a coffee beverage or whether it's being used to describe a beverage that has milk in it. A Matcha latte for example, tends to just be a sweetedned Matcha beverage with milk in it. No coffee thrown in. I was kinda hoping this Cinnamon Honey Latte would be milk with cinnamon and honey thrown in. It turned out to be a coffee beverage. No complaints about it. It's on me for assuming that it was milk with cinnamon and honey thrown in. I should have probably asked our server about the beverage before simply ordering it. Will make sure to do that if/when we end up here again. Kinda had my eye on the Turkish Apple Tea though so might just order that next time and the whole "Latte" dilemma wouldn't be an issue with that.
