They do not take cash! Really great coffee though and decent baked goods. Solid 4/5. Only one person works the register and makes coffee, so it is a slower wait at times, but it's a good spot.
I loved the vibe here. The style of decoration is a little old-fashioned (not outdated, just an older aesthetic) with beautiful, interesting artwork covering the walls, a nice fireplace, and plants in the windows. It felt like my grandparents’ living room. The barista was very nice too, which made it a welcoming atmosphere.
I got a tofu sandwich, a brownie, and an iced matcha latte. The sandwich had slices of tofu, slaw, spinach, and soft cheese (I think it was melted cheese, maybe it was a spread) on fig sourdough. I liked that it was something a little different and healthful, and it was delicious (especially the bread), but it had been made in advance and the dressing had really soaked into the bread. The edges of the brownie were a little dry, but the middle was so good - it was fudgy but not overly rich. The matcha latte was very clumpy and the flavour was so-so, though the weak flavour is probably not because they used low-quality matcha but because it wasn’t fully incorporated. I would not get this again.
My total was $21 which is comparable to what I’d pay for a similar meal at chain coffee shops like Blenz or Artigiano. While there are certainly better coffee shops for food, this one was better than the competition at the price point. The food had that wholesome homemade quality that the big chains lack. But ultimately the atmosphere here is so comfortable that I’d choose it over a lot of places with objectively better food, which for me is saying a Iot.

This coffee shop at the corner is artistic. When I walk into the shop along the corridor from the entrance they are exhibiting the painting by local artist. Also the lightings are nostalgic.
I went there in a sunny afternoon and had a latte with a scone. Coffee went well and the scone tasted good. The barista was a very nice guy and very attentive.
I recommend this lovely cafe for anyone who enjoys a quiet moment in the afternoon with coffee and light foods.

Ordered an Americano today not too long ago and paid for it, while the staff or owner or whomever she was was making other drinks I said excuse me because I wanted to order something else and was met with an EYE ROLL. Wow. I wanted to buy a shot of Baileys for my coffee but I guess it’s a nuisance to your employees for customers to spend more money at the cafe. When my drink was done I wanted milk and this cafe seems to have control issues with customers dispensing their own milk and cream - I told her I could pour my own milk in the coffee and she refused to listen to me and I had to repeat myself firmly because I know exactly how much milk I want in my coffee and I think after spending money here I deserve to pour my own milk! I don’t think I’ve ever been treated so terribly at a coffee shop and would not give this cafe another penny if it was the last coffee shop on planet earth.
Went for breakfast this morning at 8:00 AM when they opened and the owner showed up a few minutes late. Breakfast was no good. The poached eggs were hard and the fruit salad was very oxidized (I wonder how long it had been out?). I wanted a pastry but there were nothing there until we left and it had been restocked……. Message to the owner - arrive before your customers and get the restaurant ready for your opening….Very disappointed.
We had a very pleasant stop today sitting under the shade of trees, enjoying oat cappuccino and latte. The espresso was strong, but not bitter, and the foam very well made. I also had gluten free toast which was not very filling, but better than other sugared gluten-free cookies. They offer all-day-breakfast, useful to remember when I need to sit under a tree during hot summer months. The bathroom was spotless – no dirt above or under the base boards.
Quaint little coffee house located in Kitslano. I sat here, had an iced latte and watched people. Pretty music playing in the background with art hung on the walls. Very good feel here.
Great place for breakfast and people watching! The coffee was delicious and breakfast was wonderful! The art inside is beautiful and the service was great too! We met an older gentleman who told us about the artist and how he got a custom piece done by them! So wonderful how this cafe brings the community together! 10/10 would recommend and will come back soon
