    6" Blueberry cheesecake
    Samuel F.

    A cute cafe in Yaletown, Wren Cafe is a newly opened gem. They have a wide variety of menu items, ranging from pastries to pastas. I was searching for a custom birthday cake and Rachel was very helpful with my order. After a brief phone call of my request, I was given a quote that same day. I believe you can also message them on Instagram to order. I ordered a 6" blueberry cheesecake and it was fantastic. I loved how aesthetic the cake was, the overall textures of the cheesecake, and best of all, it wasn't too sweet! The lemon flavours in the cheesecake really helped balance the overall sweetness. Would definitely return to try their other aesthetic desserts or order another custom cake!

    Sundried tomato pasta

    A return visit was a must after craving the pasta I first tried at a recent Yelp event--and I'm so glad I came back! We ordered the Caramelized Onion & Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta and the Creamy Mushroom Pasta, both just as delicious as I remembered. For dessert, we tried The Apple and The Lemon, and wow--these are something special! The shape, the texture, and the flavors inside are heavenly. I personally loved The Apple, while my husband preferred The Lemon. I also spotted on Instagram that they're releasing a Marshmallow dessert, so you know I'll be back to try that one! The ambiance is clean and cozy, with plenty of tables to choose from, making it a great spot to dine in or take out. Their drink menu is also really nice, adding to the experience. Service was super friendly, and I even got to see one of the owners working on the lemon pastries. She was so kind, answering my questions and filling me in on how they're made. A lot of work and love goes into these, and hearing their story made me enjoy them even more. Absolutely love their creations and the fact that they offer pasta for lunch--such a win!

    Price point: $$ ($6-25 per person) Service: attentive and great! They serve brunch here from 11 to 3 PM.but if you don't want a full on breakfast, they also have lunch and just pastries, cakes, sweets available ! Assortment of drinks that anyone can enjoy! I love how things are clearly made in-house with the open front bakery and cafe concept. You can see that they are creating these pastries there. I really appreciate the potatoes on the eggs Benedict, but I do think that the meat selection was just too salty for me ? I think this might just be a personal preference. my experience was good. I enjoyed the barbeque chicken flatbread, and the Matcha latte is very green! If I could, I think I would go back to try another pasta because it was cooked perfectly Al Dante.

    Creamy Mushroom Fettuccine with Chicken
    Sandy Y.

    We hadn't been out for brunch in a while, and finding a spot in Yaletown that serves brunch every day was a challenge. That's why Wren Cafe immediately caught our attention! Their menu has a unique variety, from open sandwiches and pasta to flatbreads. What We Tried: * Eggs Benedict with Smoked Salmon and Prosciutto 必食 * Creamy Mushroom Fettuccine with Chicken * Open Sandwich Trio (we picked Salmon Rillette, Prosciutto Pear, and Pulled Pork Coleslaw) 好味 * Blueberry Cheesecake * The Raspberry (a dessert) * Latte * Blueberry Soda * Sea Salt Pineapple Soda Every dish was a hit, but if we had to choose favourites, it would be the Eggs Benedict and the Open Sandwich Trio. The Eggs Benedict were absolutely perfect--soft, poached eggs paired with both smoked salmon and prosciutto. Every bite was satisfying and so flavorful. The Open Sandwich Trio stole the show with its elegant presentation on a marble stone. Our picks -- Pulled Pork Coleslaw, Egg Salad with Semi-Dried Tomatoes, and Smoked Salmon with Cucumber Ribbons -- were all simple yet incredibly delicious. The service was just as impressive as the food. The experience felt upscale, like dining in a restaurant, even though it's a cozy cafe. Amazing food, warm service, and an unbeatable vibe. We highly recommend Wren Cafe to anyone in Yaletown looking for a brunch spot! Food: 5/5 Must Try! Service: Eatery Kids: 4/5 Yay! Price: $20-$30 per person Presentation: 3/5 Parking: Paid street parking Tips: * Save room for sweet treats. * Best place for brunch or a coffee date. * Great to pair your meal with their refreshing sodas or lattes. * Plan your visit and enjoy a relaxed dining experience. Would I Return: Yes ‍

    Main seating area bright and airy!

    During a recent visit to Yaletown, I came across a bouquet of flowers outside this newly renovated little cafe called Wren so of course I popped in to check it out! It just happens to be their soft opening today! As an introductory offer if you buy five of their freshly made in house desserts you get one free! The three gals for which the cafe is named, graduated from Le Cordon Bleu and are off to a great start. I ordered: Lemon blueberry tart surprisingly full with blueberries and a thin lemon curd on top with more blueberries and meringue on a pastry crust. Not overly sweet and super fresh! Lemon meringue tart- excellent balance of tartness and sweetness and you can taste the fresh lemon peel. Tiramisu- nice strong espresso syrup, perfect ratio of moist sponge cake and mascarpone. Sooo good! Chocolate bomb- to die for if you're a chocolate lover. Soft super rich chocolate mousse is pudding like and melts in your mouth. Good quality chocolate you can taste the difference! Fruit tart - a classic! Tropical cake- light sponge with a mango coconut custard, is fruity and moist But also ordered a lichee black tea soda which is served with a nice thin-slice of dried orange, which is edible too. Very refreshing. I was very impressed by the quality of their pastries and their chocolate filled croissant is light, flaky and crisp! I'll be back to try their brunch options! Only just opened so I hope Vancouverites can help these three young people thrive!

    Onion soup, mushroom pasta
    Kim K.

    Really cute cafe. Super nice owner. Went today and had the mushroom pasta, a peach desert and these flatbreads. Super cozy. I also had a lychee iced tea. Highly recommended.

    Flatbread

    Amazing food, friendly staff, and quick service. Would recommend giving them a try. Their potato wedges were so good, we went back for seconds.

    Pina Colada dessert

    Small hidden secret gem on Nelson. You will miss it if you blinked. Next to Subway. Tried the Trio sandwiches. We had the pear and prosciutto, salmon rillette and barbecue pulled pork. These chefs open face sandwiches were excellent. We had the piña colada for dessert. Very good prices. Service felt personalized and friendly.

    Hazelnut pastry

    First thing I noticed upon entering Wren was how hot, stuffy it was with aroma of B.O., unpleasant and thank goodness for nasal fatigue! We ordered a few coffees, a pastry and croissant sandwich. They were lackluster at best. The smoked salmon croissant sandwich was very small and overpriced.

    Usually for last few years I've been ordering from Esther at Dipnsip & Unni Pastries. I was…read morereferred at my friend's wedding as I was looking for cakes and pastries for in-laws. Well it seems ownership has changed and the new owner doesn't give two craps about prior customers, honoring discounts, replying back timely or being more friendly? Was playing email tag and finally submitted the 39 flavors and didn't hear back until after another week and then told they won't deliver only in morning when they know our reservation was for 730pm and they're open until 9? I even replied back and nothing. We own and run several business in lower mainland and in United States and this customer service from Unni Pastries is trash. At least you can do is reply back and apologize? For wasting time when I specifically told you it's for family and friends flying into town for a funeral burial. Will never use their business again. I highly suggest Mello. They replied and helped me out last minute. Shame on you! Learn how to run a business and treat customers esp previous customers who were supporting the business and fellow Krn but it's clear the new owner doesn't care about the customer or quality it's all about quantity. Maybe my 39 donuts which I offered to pay extra for time and packaging wasn't large enough but money is money. Especially during this time and economy. You should've at least replied back and even tried asking us to do pickup as the restaurant is down the road. Do better! Go to Mello which isn't too far and they bake fresh daily better pricing and reviews and consistency!

    A good assortment of pastries and surprisingly some savoury items for reasonable prices. There's a…read morelot of fruit forward flavour combinations like mango, strawberry and raspberry. Also a lot of red bean. For savoury, they have large paninis and lasagna. The service is friendly and there's sufficient indoor seating.
