I will glaze this Blenz's until the end of my days. EVERY SINGLE ORDER is always the same outstanding quality. Best Lattes ever on this entire campus. The liquid sugar is complemntary and they will put in as much as you want. The almond croissant is also MIND BLOWING. I genuinely don't know why thier rating is so low when they beat Starbucks and Renaissance Coffee is absolutely everyway. Also, if you have BCAA or Blenz rewards, you can redeem for free dink uprgades and discounts on food, which is something you cannot do at Starbucks since they subcontract to SFU. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Not to mention Blenz's are franchised by local owners, so you are supporting a local business when purchasing!
Ordered a filtered coffee an hour prior to their closing time. After taking a sip, I realized that coffee was not warm. I went back to the shop and lady told me they are about to close that's why the coffee might be a bit cold and she offered me to microwave it for me. That's the most ridiculous thing I heard in a coffee shop. She ended up making up an americano for me. I guess she was a bit keen to turn off everthing to get out of there soon.

The service is terrible. Staff was wearing headphones and I needed to call 4 5 times for her to come from the back to take order.

I have been to this location several times in the last 3 years. One good thing about it is its consistency. Their latte is consistently cold and tasteless.

It's at a prime location so I really wanted to like this place but...
Service is terrible , staff sometimes just talk and don't take orders. Sometimes they also just ignore you.
Drinks are really mid , I usually just drink matcha, and the matcha here sucks. Even when I paid 1.45 for the extra matcha shot I didn't taste it in my drink at all. My drink was just green but it didn't taste green. The only thing saving the place from 1/5 stars is that there shakes fruit teas are decent, so I couldn't give it a one.
The food is mid, they charge alot for the food but the sizes are small and all they do is heat it up. The wrap and the sausage rolls were not worth it.

Probably the best blenz i’ve been to, as the drink i get is always good and made consistently. This is not the case for most blenz locations. This is the only location i trust :)
Overpriced.
Definitely best place to catch caffeine in SFU.Usually very business but staffs are very quick and great with services.

This place doesnt even deserve this one star. These idiots never have anything i want. They would be like “we will be in stock in a few hours, etc” but then when i come back. They never are. Its so stupid..

Edit: I’ve realized at other locations that they shake/stir it really well & its only matcha on the top half, and you can stir with the milk on the bottom (no clumps!)- //Summer 2023:I think the cold Matcha latte needs more care/attention... because it can sometimes be really clumpy in the final product. But, the reason I write this review is because I am a little ticked that this location often has (some) staff that seem annoyed or indifferent if you have any request/discontent about something (and that's not to say that there's always an issue).Whereas, when I gently mentioned at SFU Surrey Blenz that the cold matcha latte had some powder lumps, the guy took the drink and re-shook it without me even having to ask - I was surprised, and grateful. All of which probably took 1 minute of his time...Today, I asked at this location about it + if it could be "re-shaken", .....and was told to get a stir stick + felt hostility... I think that shows a great difference in quality service + friendliness - or lack thereof.1-2 girls here are really nice, as an aside.

Prices should be at least 20% lower across the board and then there’s the audacity to ask for a tip on top.
