Stumbled upon this cafe in New West after having our car serviced at Ford. I ordered a latte with cashew milk while the hubby ordered their breakfast wrap. The lady at the counter was really nice and friendly. My latte was well made while the breakfast wrap was served grilled and it was tasty and filling. The cafe has a homey ambience and they had lots of seating available. Wifi is free and bathrooms are clean (just ask them for the key). Street parking is available with a fee. read more

The staff is amazingly friendly and they do a lot of good for the community here. Their cinnamon roll is to DIE for, and their savoury lunch stuff is EPIC! (I'm a huge fan of the grilled cheese + tomato soup but their chef has been all over the world and the soups are always amazing!) Also appreciate all of the options they have for gluten free / vegan cuisines. read more

If you find yourself near the BC Provincial Law Courts in New Westminster and you're looking for a place to hide out, you only have to go across the street to duck inside The Hide Out Cafe. The Hide Out Cafe is a self-acclaimed "hidden gem" which serves up paninis, wraps, salads as well as Fair Trade coffee. I showed up on a sunny May weekday and decided to try their Grilled Chicken Panini ($10.49) with meaty chunks of chicken, creamy melted cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes. Their menu appears to be limited to whatever they have already prepared for that day. The panini press gave this sandwich a nice crunchy exterior and turned a rather ordinary sandwich into a pleasantly hot, ooey-gooey treat. Perhaps not the best sandwich that I've had and I'd prefer if the sandwiches were made-to-order, but adequate for the neighbourhood. They also have a hidden patio off the side of the cafe where you can enjoy the sunny weather. read more

Amazing food. Every thing is premade, usually I would have an issue with that, but when they grill the food up, I wouldn't have known it was premade if I hadn't seen it my self first. By premade they make their meals the day before. They are a smaller and pop shop, I couldn't believe how busy they get , for such a small space . Recommend : mango chicken wrap/ or the tuna bagel sandwich, or the breakfast wrap. I can't decide between the three that I love the most.

Solid breakfast wraps, soup and latte! My lunch came to $17. I found that a touch pricey for the ambiance. The place looks like the standard coffee shop with board games and limited seating. The bigger tables are reserved only for groups of 3 or 4 people when I asked. My food was great. My wrap was loaded with cheese, egg and sausage. Broccoli and cheese soup was creamy.

I hate when you get to the middle of something and it's luke warm or cold. Please try the mango chicken wrap and grilled cheese with tomato soup when it's on special. There soups are delicious and the lattes ... omggg. I also tried a panini the other day and it was equally delicious however I'm not a super big fan of corn chowder it came with. The only down side is the prices. They are quite high however it's a small little business so I don't mind supporting them. read more

Delicious! And sort of a hipster vibe. I ordered the veggie breakfast wrap and it was just so good! Flavorful and filling with avocados, eggs, cheese, potatoes, and a hint of basil. Grilled to perfection. We were initially sort of turned off by the fact that they wouldn't let us trade 2 Canadian dollars for 2 single 1s but they made it up by taking initiative to suggest some places to eat and see, once they found out we were visiting from the U.S. That was nice :) but the food definitely 5 stars! read more

The food here is excellent. I often have a hard time deciding what to eat when I'm here, but I always fall back on the soup and 1/2 a sandwich lunch combo for $7.99. The tomato chowder is seriously the best soup I've ever had. The chef/owner puts a lot of effort and care into making each food item delightfully flavorful. The espresso here is a kick in the teeth. Just like I like it. When I'm in the mood for something a little more decadent, they make a mean cappuccino, for which I'm very appreciative. Their tea selection is varied and intriguing. If you love to explore teas, or have a friend who loves their tea, bring them here! You won't be disappointed. Russel's Cream Ale. On tap. YES! Since it's located near the Law Courts and Douglas College, it gets packed during lunch times, so be aware of the notes posted about the place asking for your conscientiousness and patience. Any time I have friends in town to visit, I make them come here with me for lunches and meetings. Such a great little cafe. I'm looking forward to putting their patio to use once the weather gets better this spring. I'm truly sad that they're only open until 5pm, because I'd eat dinner here too if I could. read more

This is certainly off the beaten track for many of us. But this cafe is fresh, warm, and inviting (as their tag line tells you). There's some nice seating by the windows, as well as some lamp-lit corners. I didn't have any food. Just an iced latte and my friend a coffee. They advertise that they get their beans from Continental Coffee which is a perk in my opinion. The crowd here is mixed. There was a guy studying, a young family eating, and a girl on her cell phone. It wasn't too crowded, and there were lots of seating choices. read more

This cozy little place is a good stop for lunch or a tasty treat. Or to just come to hang out and have a coffee. The food is definitely worth coming in for; try out a panini or a soup and salad. Food is made in House and comes out fresh and delicious. The quiet and intimate setting works for me. The restaurant space feels and looks cluttered. If filed to capacity you might feel a little claustrophobic. Corners of the place can be filled with random pieces of equipment and supplies. This does distract from the overall appeal somewhat. Good location, good food. Worth the visit any day. read more

The coffee was ok, but the service was terrible. A mid/late-thirties asian woman who seemed to be the owner (the way she was being condescending to other staff was a hint) was rude to say the least. I ordered two coffees for my friend and I and during the transaction she made a couple of comments about having to break a $50 bill, no greeting, no thank you, no smile, no return from us. My friend waited by the coffee pick up area and had to ask for some foam to be scooped out and she gave him attitude as well. The kitchen/cooking area is also poorly ventilated since the entire establishment was overwhelmed with the smell of whatever they were recooking in the back. I've lived in the neighbourhood for over 4 years and had never given this place a chance. At least I know eliminated it as an option. Small business owners (and their staff) should be courteous and inviting to be set apart from chain/franchise competition. They fell way short of that at this place. read more

We ordered a Pumpkin Chai Latte and a Pumpkin Spice Belgian Hot Chocolate and a Macadamia Marble Cookie. I like that for their hot chocolate you get to choose if it's milk or dark, I opted for dark. We found a table and I do appreciate the table signs that say to limit your visit to one hour. Honestly, more places should do this to stop people from treating a cafe like their living room or a library. I do feel like Delicia is on the overpriced side for what it serves. The latte was almost $7 and the hot chocolate was $8. I don't think that the drinks aren't worth it, it feels like mixed powder and nothing note worthy. When a menu is too big, it makes me question what is actually good, because even for a small cafe, you can't do everything good. To top it off, our cookie had a hair on the plate, very unappetizing.

Such a gem in New West!…read more My partner and I just went here for coffee today and he ordered a cappuccino, while I got myself a matcha latte. Both drinks were made exceptionally well; impressively smooth, foamy, balanced, and clearly prepared with care rather than just being an afterthought. What really makes this place special is the atmosphere. The vibe feels genuinely inclusive and community-driven, with thoughtful touches like the pop-up bookstore featuring books on race, gender, and queer authors. It feels like a space built for connection, not just coffee. I also love how it transforms depending on the day. The daytime café energy is cozy and welcoming, while on select nights they stay open longer, serve alcohol, and host regular events like DJ nights, board game nights, and other community gatherings. It gives the space a lot of personality and makes it feel alive beyond the usual coffee shop experience. Definitely one of those places that feels more like a neighborhood hub than just a café. I'll be visiting a lot more soon!

I would recommend 1-1.5 pumps of liquid sugar (the barista helped me put it in so just ask!). The inside of the cafe was quite cute and they even had a little clothing rack selling second hand items like clothes and shoes! The space is quite big and spacious and has seating at the back as well and washrooms.

I've been a few times to Edible Arts in New Westminster, and it's been fairly good till recently…read more I had purchased some pastries and was told they had them in stock. When after payment was finished, they had said "Sorry, we are out of those." There was no option for re-payment, no offer of compensation, only the choice of a different selection and I wasn't given my receipt. The selection was very slim and there was confusion on quantities. I was told a choice of two to three other options, to which they only had one available (or so they said). They first tried offering the one in the display case that looked as if it had been sitting there for 1-2 weeks. That of course turned me off, and I asked what else they had in stock. They finally checked their smaller fridge/ freezer to find they had that "one" type they mentioned available, but only a few. While waiting at the front by the service desk/ display case I did see that they had a bunch of boxes of pastries in the far back fridge/ freezer. This is when another employee had opened it up to check quantities or retrieve something from inside. When observing, I noticed that they had exactly what I was looking to purchase, though the service employee didn't bother to check and continued to say they had none in stock. Personally I will not go back to this store location and I am familiar with the supplier of the pastries for that store. I will go directly to that supplier when they provide their open market in the Langley area. Also, the supplier sells them for about $1.00 lower than Edible Arts. They attend the Farmer's Market out by the Kwantlen Campus in Langley.

The barista was extremely sociable and I spent 60 minutes shooting the sh*t with him on life, politics, life and money. I met an awesome family in there from Alberta who I chatted with. I initially came in here for a latte, however, stayed for a ham bisque and macaroons. Very reasonably priced, great products and they continue to offer more quality items and very awesome stuff. This unplanned detour made my day.

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 guess barista did not add too much sugar, however, I did not need it. Houjicha flavor was was very bold and strong, and paired with milk so well. I really enjoyed houjicha itself, no sugar necessary. It really reminds me of houjicha latte in Japan. Barista was Japanese lady. very friendly and nice. 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.

I finally decided on having the forte sandwich with prosciutto crudo, gorgonzola cream, and sweet walnut pesto. The sandwich was delicious and made to order. I really liked the balanced blend of the savory and sweet flavors. It was a delight! The espresso was strong and satisfying. I didn't get a chance to have their pastries this time. I can't wait to come back for their cannolis and more sandwiches!
