The space is lovely and the staff friendly. It's a very good hangout spot for a casual meal or snack, and they serve some basic alcoholic drinks as well to pair with food. Overall very solid, would recommend trying at least once!

Waffles for Dinner? Always a Good Idea!…read more I've been wanting to try Nero Belgian Waffle Bar for brunch forever, but the queue is always so long. I finally decided to pop in for dinner instead and waffles for dinner turned out to be the ultimate move! We had such an amazing meal from start to finish. First off, huge shoutout to them for not charging extra for alternative milk! My Tiramisu Latte with almond milk was absolute perfection. Here is what we ordered: -The French Waffle ($19): Their unique take on French toast using an egg-washed Brussels waffle, topped with rich pistachio cream, fresh berries, real whipped cream, and a delicious pistachio crumble. - Lemon Ricotta Liege Waffle ($19): Hubby's choice! A denser Liege waffle loaded with fresh raspberries, ricotta, tangy lemon curd, raspberry coulis, white chocolate, and pistachio crumble. Beyond the incredible waffles, the service was outstanding. The staff was so warm, friendly, and amazing with kids, they even let the little ones pick out a small treat from a sweet gift basket. . Such a sweet and warm feels dining in here. Fantastic food, thoughtful touches, and wonderful service. We will definitely be back!

It's much smaller than the other location, especially in the kitchen, but very quaint! The server/cashier/barista/chef was very kind. This location must be a tough one to work at - I hope they're paid accordingly! She was a one-woman show, and she was doing a fantastic job at handling the many tasks. (We visited about 4:30 on Saturday on Oct 25) They were great lattes, even some latte art! We went all-out on this visit. I had a Banella Brûlée, absolutely perfect. Everything is a bit sweet but that's what you're looking for when you order an ice cream waffle, right?! The Oreo was also a great choice. The tables are a bit small, but it's manageable. If it was full, I may be a bit claustrophobic but I think it's fine if there's some room. Overall, highly recommend for a latte or a sweet treat. They have some seasonal mini leige waffles if you're looking for something on the go!

We arrived and placed ourselves on the waitlist. We waited about 45-60 minutes total. But boy oh boy was it worth it! The restaurant is a Mediterranean inspired breakfast/lunch/ brunch. The interior was warm and inviting. The hostess and our server were both very sweet and provided great customer service. We started with coffees. My husband ordered espresso and I had a salted caramel latte. Both coffees were great - they had bold flavor and the froth on my latte was fluffy (bonus points for the cute latte art). For our entrees, my husband ordered the Fricassée. The short rib was tender and delicious! The tomato sauce was also amazing. Just wanted to note that the sauce was a bit more on the tangy side. I ordered the Cassoulet. The tomato sauce on this one was my favorite as it was a perfect balance between tangy and savory. I also really enjoyed the white beans which helped add to the body of the meal. The grilled focaccia is perfection! They're crisp and crunchy on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. We used the focaccia to devour every last bit of the tomato sauces from our plates. I don't really run into Mediterranean breakfast often. But Medina Cafe and these shakshuka inspired dishes have definitely won us over. I'd come back and wait in line all over again. Yum!

Crispy, flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and the kind of dish I would come back for all by itself. The Les Boulettes were packed with flavor and so satisfying. The waffle was also perfection, which says a lot because I'm really not a sweets person. The latte felt downright lavish. Smooth, rich, and beautifully done. The martini definitely did the trick. Between the food, drinks, and overall experience, Medina Cafe is absolutely worth a visit. The service was fantastic, I'd happily come back, especially for those potatoes because I'm still thinking about them!

They have a bunch of savory and sweet options, at decent prices, it was hard to decide! I ultimately landed on getting the Elvis - bananas, peanut butter, honey and bacon with whipped cream. It was pretty good but entirely too much whipped cream, had to scrape some off. Got a coffee with my waffle, nothing special - it was freshly made from a coffee maker. From a service perspective they do disclose that they make everything fresh to order so patience is key... I had to be extra patient because I think I waited about 40 minutes for my order to come out . It did seem like orders after mine came out much faster so maybe I was just unlucky on timing.

Food: 3/3 Service: 1/1…read moreAmbiance: 1/1 Very central location in the heart of downtown. It is a grab and go spot with a very small interior and limited seating. There is a decent selection of both savoury and sweet waffles to choose from and they absolutely LOAD up your big waffle with the fillings/toppings! Definitely a novelty sort of food that you don't get anywhere else around here and delicious to boot. Would absolutely recommend trying at least once, and I would say it is a go-to spot if you're fancying a waffle meal!

I…read moreused to play Pokemon Go quite religiously but eventually that tapered off, so the event was a fun way to get reacquainted with the game. After walking around for a couple of hours, trying to entice various pokemon creatures into our traps (wait! is that vegan?!), one definitely tends to work up an appetite and this is where the star of our show comes in, WaffleLand Café ! A mere 10 minute walk from the Vancouver Harbour, walking into WaffleLand feels a bit like walking into a culinary pitstop on the way to Disneyland, a feeling that is no accident, completely by design. If you're a Disney addict like me, just having that theming is enough to serve as a subtle transport to a magical (some might say ..the *most* magical) place on Earth! There's just something about the whimsical nature of the storefront and within, coupled with little detailed touches that just serve to tie everything together. Honestly, I could end this post right here and I think it would still qualify as a complete write up lol but ... fat chance, I'm going to tell you about the food :), the food, the glorious food lol. Let's start by pointing out their completely separate vegan menu, I can never say enough about this gesture, it means so much to the community for so many reasons! You get to choose from a variety of waffles, most of them being sweet but not without some "sweet" (so to speak lol) savory options as well. My wife, being of the sweet persuasion, opted for the "Enchanted Forest" .. bananas, strawberries, almonds, a dallop of vegan cream and hazelnut sauce coupled with the thicker, fluffier liège style of waffle! Myself, being a savory character, I opted for the "Smoked Tofu Lover" with all my favorite things, avocado, hummus, smoked tofu, plus maple syrup and dusted with garlic sesame, coupled with a thinner, heartier norwegian style waffle. There's no wrong choices here, my friends! Plus, while I obviously had to put any low carb aspirations aside by agreeing to eat here, that doesn't mean I can't try to make smarter decisions along the way, with the fat and fiber content of my plate at least hopefully helping to slow my body's reaction to the waffle treat! We were both enamored with our respective dishes, just everything about them, the aesthetics, the flavor, the texture and super generous portion sizing! I regret that I neglected to take pictures of their drink menu as they had a great assortment of coffees, shakes, teas, cold drinks, cocktails and shots. I was really inclined to try myself an effervescent Duck Fart (I have issues, I know this....) but alas, twas not to be as the shot wasn't vegan due to Bailey's Irish Cream. So instead, I relegated myself to joining my wife in a delightfully sweet "Mickey in Waffleland", consisting of Grand Marnier, Tequila, and Tia Maria. Cheers! I love places that offer something unique, with superb character, a place with such a special charm that you're unlikely to find something similar elsewhere in your other travels and WaffleLand succeeded in hitting all of those high notes, a magical waffle experience, indeed!

We greatly enjoyed brunch at a cozy outdoor table on a sunny, warm-enough weekday in October 2026…read more It was one of the tastiest brunches I've ever had (which is saying a lot!).

My waffle was also crispy and light topped with smashed avocado, red onion, tiny cherry peppers, feta and a poached egg. You can request your egg to be soft, medium or hard poached, but not scrambled or fried. They offer the super delicious sweet and spicy condiment that's a mix between hot sauce and salad dressing. It is sooo good. They also serve coffees, teas and cocktails. It's small but very cozy and cute. We sat outside and it was comfortable - they have heaters. They also offer seasonal mini waffles.

I'm not sure if I kept walking by on a Monday but it was my first time being able to go in during operating hours. I had a bacon and cheddar waffle warmed up to eat and it was perfectly filled with bits of cheddar and bacon and very balanced! Not greasy and a great light bite to eat. I also ordered a dark chocolate covered and matcha covered waffle to go. They had the perfect texture, a tad chewy (just how we like it) with a light coating of the matcha and chocolate. There are a few tables to grab a seat in their bright shop to eat and I saw they have a nice waffle menu for breakfast/brunch/lunch plus an assortment of other goodies to order like quiches, tarts, croissants and sandwiches.
