We arrived early yet the place was already full, vibrant energy throughout the cafe. The decor had lots of funky and antique items, which added to the relaxing theme. After waiting for about twenty minutes, it was our turn to sit down and eat good food! Our waitress was a friendly lady who welcomed us and brought water. After browsing the items on the menu, my friend chose The Tater Bowl and I picked Mushroom N' Ricotta Benedict. Finally, when our orders arrived, we were ready to eat! The portion was so generous and everything was cooked just right. We were so full at the end, so we didn't get a chance to try other items. Friendly service, delicious food and warm vibe- you can't go wrong here! A must-try if you are visiting Vancouver!

The bowl was very hearty hott mess in a good way. Very filling, tasty with all the good bits of bacon, ham, sausage gravy all throughout. I had to take half home as it was a bit much for me. Wifeys Benny was decent, the hollandaise was more mayoee than regular hollandaise and there was a sweet drizzle on the eggs I personally was not a fan but I can see it's appeal to others. Serving size are very decent. Overall this location is good and we will visit again. Lovely servers, good food and atmosphere!

Went back for lunch today and had a much more streamlined experience. We sat outside as it was a…read morebeautiful day, and the hanging baskets supplied a barrier from the street noise and activity, as well as plenty of cover. My Reuben was very good, a good sized sandwich that I took half of home. The fries were nice and hot and plentiful, although salted, which I prefer to do myself. A light salting out of the fryer I get, but lightly please. K's chicken burger seemed a little light on the flavour side of the equation, and frankly needed a smaller plate so it would look like a bigger serving. She opted for the tater tots, instead of fries, which tasted good, of a little salty, and shy on portion. Our server was great, kept checking up on us, and was pleasantly attentive. We wanted to love it during our first visit, but the tea fiasco just overshadowed everything else. We are glad we returned, as this visit was far better than our first overall.

Her Iced Mocha was very nicely done. I found my Avocado Toast a bit on the salty side, and wasn't impressed with the egg that sat upon it. Runny yolk is what I like to see, but the yolk in this egg was very dry. They have a nice selection of cakes in their display case. I might come back here again to have some tea and dessert but don't think I'll bother with their savoury foods again. Service: Good Parking: Free parking on the street

So we came back and my daughter ordered the Babka French Toast again. She didn't ask me to share it…read morewith her but simply made sure to stop eating after she had finished about half the dish. Much appreciated as this allowed me to order something different. I had The Classic which came with Eggs, mushroom & broccolini, potato rosti, baked beans, roasted tomato and housemade sourdough. We also ordered a Nutelle Hot Chocolate and Matcha Oat Latte. I loved The Classic. While I do enjoy trying new things all the time, I think I'm a Classic girl at heart. I often fight the urge to order the tried and true for the sake of trying new things, but I'm ever so happy on those occasions where I give in and order something more Classic. Baked beans and toast remind me of family trips to England. Havn't gone for one of those in years, but I do have some good memories of them. When they're on sale here, we sometimes like to buy cans of Heinz British style baked beans, and I sometimes make my own homemade version of baked beans to store in our freezer. I don't often see baked beans on brunch menus so this was a bit of a special occasion for me to be able to order something with baked beans for brunch. Personally, I would have preferred the beans to have been just a little bit softer. Nothing wrong with them. They were fully cooked but perhaps just a little bit firmer than I'd have liked. I prefer my beans very soft and I tend to be like that with a lot of foods in general. My hubby prefers his foods firmer, and I like my foods softer. It's a personal preference. Otherwise, I very much enjoyed this dish and am very likely to order it again sometime! Oh, the potato rosti in my dish was awesome as well. This meal was so filling though that I only ate one small corner of the potato rosti and then took the rest home to eat as I was very full already from everything else I had eaten from the plate.

Ok I have to add to my previous review - I've been back numerous times and each time is as…read morewonderful as the last. This time I tried their Instagram worthy chicken and French toast. A wonderful looking and tasting stack! The chicken has a kick to it, crunch is done well and very tasty. The French toast is sweet brioche bread, just enough hint of sweetness without it being strong. Crunchy but also soft. Goes so well with real maple syrup. Though you can't go wrong with just about any item on the menu!

I had not ever passed through this particular area of Brackendale, as I would normally bypass it via the highway to & from Whistler. The Crabapple Café had popped up in my news feed a few months ago & I tagged it. It is a small restaurant that will get packed in so arrive here as early as you can. They thing about this particular community, is that most diners are heading to Whistler or Vancouver, so depending on when you arrive here, your table wait may not be that long. Our waitress was excellent - gave great recommendations. Our breakfast orders were excellent. I'm fussy when it comes to pancakes. However, I had absolutely no fuss over the pancakes here - they were on point spectacular - fluffy & tasty. The bacon was fantastic. If you're heading up to Whistler, make this a stopover indeed.

Jam Cafe, Vancouver Jam Cafe is my favorite brunch spot. Anywhere. That sounds like an exaggeration. It isn't. I've been traveling to Vancouver for work for almost a decade, and every single trip includes a stop at Jam. If I'm lucky, two. I've also become that coworker who convinces everyone to meet outside at 7:45 in the morning so we can be part of the first seating at 8:00. Thankfully, we're all from the East Coast and have been awake since 5:00 anyway. Over the years I've successfully JAMfluenced more business travelers than I'd like to admit. And yes, it's still worth the wait even if you're not first in line. The restaurant itself is tiny. Cozy farmhouse vibes, mismatched decorations covering the walls, and maybe 15 tables between the dining room and patio. It feels more like someone's favorite neighborhood breakfast spot than one of Vancouver's brunch institutions. The menu is comfort food turned up to eleven. Everything is indulgent, creative, and somehow still balanced. You can tell the kitchen starts with great ingredients because every component tastes like it could stand on its own. I try to branch out every visit... and then usually end up ordering the Tater Tot Bowl anyway. Crispy tater tots, buffalo sauce, Mexican street corn relish, and ridiculously good pulled pork. It's the kind of dish that sounds like it shouldn't work, but every bite somehow gets better than the last. And then there are the cinnamon roll pancakes. They are enormous. They're also one of the best brunch dishes I've ever eaten. Birdfluencer Lorraine M. declared them the best pancakes she's ever had, and after several visits, I don't have much of an argument. Service is exactly what it needs to be. Friendly, efficient, and quick. The staff knows there's a line forming outside before the doors even open, but you never feel rushed. Overall, Jam Cafe has officially become part of my Vancouver tradition. At this point, a work trip to the city doesn't really start until I've had breakfast here. If you're visiting Vancouver and only have time for one brunch, this would be my pick without a second thought.

Jam Cafe has everything you would expect from an American all-day breakfast/brunch spot; however,…read morethe classic items have fun twists that make the place special. For example, the Chicken French Toast is a quirky marriage of chicken and waffles and sweet French toast. It was a creative sweet-and-savory combination: thick-cut brioche French toast topped with crispy buttermilk-fried chicken thighs, hot honey, tangy pickled cabbage, and jalapeño sour cream. The sweetness from the brioche and honey balanced nicely with the crunchy chicken, the acidity from the cabbage, and the mild kick from the jalapeño. Coffee and other hot drinks are served in thick, diner-style mugs, which I love. I also recommend the lavender lemonade mimosa. Our server was very nice and had a small chat with us at the end. The interior is designed with lots of vintage elements that you might see in an escape room. Overall, a great brunch spot.

The combination of flavors, the runny egg yolks, the gooeyness of the cheese...it was just such a wonderfully comforting and belly warming meal. 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. My daughter's Avocado Toast looked super yummy as well. Might try ordering that next time, although Michelangelo's Mediterranean Spread was also kinda calling out to me!

The Eggs Florentine…read more The construction of this classic egg dish in regards to the ingredients is spot on. Each individual ingredient paired with the rest is not only creative but culinarily harmonious. Imagine....a perfectly toasted crisp butter croissant with a thinly covered sliver of Tomato Jam, a delicate spread of smashed avocado and perfectly seasoned steamed Spinach all topped with a medium poached egg taking a final bow for the encore before the feast. That would've been ideal. It's not how it was. There was an overload of Hollandaise and an excessive amount of Tomato Jam, which oddly enough tasted just like Strawberry Jam. So, with the cream of the Hollandaise and the sweetness of the Jam, and it all being way too much..... I could not taste the spinach, nor the avocado, and nor the yolk, which was such a pity because those are all incredible flavours in their own right. Sadly, the amount of Jam and Sauce macheted its way through more than half the flavour profile this dish could've had. It just ended up having a very clear dominating taste of the sweet Jam and the cream of the Hollandaise. That's what it was reduced down to unfortunately for this dish. Also, it was ordered medium poached but served soft. The Service nonetheless was great. Friendly hostess and my server Hayleigh was wonderful and executed her job with ease and high standard.
