33 Best Cafes in Burnaby

“I've been going there for 20 years not for price but for the quality of food and the friendly atmosphere .“

“Cute little Korean cafe specializing in bagel sandwich. Their bagel is not dense Montreal style kind but softer Asian kind. We had an apple and cream cheese sandwich and it was delicious! The bagel was fresh and tasty. We also had a scone and mushroom soup and enjoyed them both. Coffee could be a bit stronger tho. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Easy parking. Friendly service!“

“I remember coming here before a performance at the Massey Theatre a couple years ago so I thought I would try it again.
Like before, the staff greeted me graciously with a smile, confirmed my order and it was quickly made. I had the egg & spinach panini and it was excellent.“

“very fresh & delicious!!!“

“So good. Great, friendly service. A beautiful array of delicious pastries. Awesome coffee.“

“冰品超好吃，環境清幽“

“Mushroom tacos were Legit! Go check them out if you're ever in the area!“

“We’re currently on holidays at Whistler (from Australia) and it was a delight to have a nice warm pie for lunch. Good Quality food.“

“A person would have to be completely out of their minds to say anything negative about this beautiful family cafe. All their pastries and sandwiches are freshly made every single day and they have beautiful personalities as sometimes they will go over the top to accommodate you. I'm a regular customer and I have fresh coffee everyday with a treat at times or a sandwich and I'm always impressed with the freshness of the food. They're beautiful and should be awarded for their excellent customer service alone, as they can teach other businesses manners and personality.“

“If there was an option to give more stars, I would. He is the kindest, the warm ambiance he holds in his kitchen makes you feel like you’re transported home to a nostalgic time. On top of that, he’s formed a sweet community of regulars who know his restaurant is delicious. He’ll remember your order, checks in on you, and offers great portions for an incomparable price. The food is AMAZING. Seriously, the food seems to be worth more than what he asks for. Would definitely come again if I lived closer.“

“Very relaxing environment, you can be here for a coffee, or lunch or even dinner as they offer a variety of drinks and very decent food. We ordered a fettuccine with shrimps, an avocado salad croissant, and a cheese pressed burger with double meat. Everything was so good, especially the burger! It was grilled just right. For dessert, we ordered a tiramisu cake to share. Really love the chilling vibe here.“

“Loved the roasted green tea slushie! but it reminded me of just bubble world bubble tea lol. Still good though for something that's completely dairy free! I recommend that! Skip the pastries though. The matcha cheesecake muffin was pricy for something that was small and didn't look presentable, and also was dry.“

“This cafe is a must-visit for breakfast lovers! Their caramel macchiato is perfectly balanced, and the breakfast croissant is a flaky, savory dream. Seriously, it's one of the best I've ever had. Fast service and a great start to the day!“

“A very nice and warm welcoming cafe. The lady working here was very nice and gave me a wonderful cozy vibe. As if you’re visiting a caring relative. She was very kind and made sure we all found a drink we would enjoy.

The drinks are very delicious and I was very pleased. They use real fruits for some of their drinks and they were very refreshing.

We got 20% off our drinks. The lady told us for the winter months there is 20% off for the season.

I will definitely be back!

I recommend either of the two drinks we got or something made with real fruits!

I'm a mala addict, and I'm eating something here that I couldn't even eat in Korea.?The portions are plentiful, the owner and staff are friendly, and the cafe is very clean and cute?I will come often from now on~~~

Kid-friendliness: Baby chair? There is also a baby dining chair.

“Matt the barista was on his own today all day due to his associate being sick. I only know this because I overheard him mention it to a regular. My misto was still perfect and it was 2:30pm after 8 hours of keeping this location going all day. Kudos to Matt.“

“It was my first time at this cafe and I was pleased to see there is a lot of space and wall outlets, meaning I can come work on my laptop here, and also that I can meet with friends and not worry about potentially being loud in a small space. There’s a free parking garage and it’s across Brentwood mall, so it’s easy to access the skytrain.

If you want to try anything, I’d recommend the tiramisu cause it’s so moist and the coffee flavour is perfect“

“We ordered a Sanwich Tuna Melt and a Morning Glory Muffin. Sanwich was so tasty with nice surprised, some pickles and the muffin ingredients were so rich with lots of nuts and shredded carrots!!

We greeted by all friendly, smiley staff and the shop was clean and happy to enjoy there!!“

“Some of the best coffee I have had in the lower mainland, so smooth. The deserts were wonderful also. Staff were helpful and very pleasant. Very cozy fun space to drink your coffee in.“

“On a rainy day, I found myself seeking shelter at the Café at Mandeville, and what a delightful discovery it was! The café exudes a cozy vibe that made me feel right at home, especially with a fireplace near our table which added a touch of warmth to the dreary weather outside.

The food and drinks were a hit. I had the picnic, which was great, and an iced Americano that was certainly above average—robust and refreshing. The daily soup was another highlight for me; it was rich, comforting, and exactly what I needed on a chilly day.

The café also boasts a charming outdoor seating area that I took note of for future visits. It seems like the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee and meal outdoors, especially with kids. The ambiance of the café, combined with its tasty offerings, makes it a fantastic place to chill with friends or enjoy a family outing.

I’m already looking forward to my next visit to Café at Mandeville, to enjoy not just the ambiance and company but also to relish their food and drinks in the lovely outdoor setting.“

“Breakfast was delicious, hot and very good salad. Rate the coffee as delicious. Overall outstanding.“

“I highly recommend for office catering. we've ordered many times and food always tastes fresh and delicious, service is impeccable and the chef and team are very accommodating.“

“Look at that Vibrant Colour of Macro Salads! Its so pretty. Don't wanna eat it now. Best Take Out Salads I've ever had. Looks good. Tastes good too. Will boost your day with loads of organic and healthy goodness in it. YUM!!“

“Great option for a quick office lunch. Good menu of tasty offerings, fresh ingredients, good portion sizes, reasonably priced. Never had a bad experience there nor have I heard from my colleagues. We are located in the building next door so very convenient and many of us eat here.“

“A peaceful little spot tucked in Burnaby — The Between Café is exactly the kind of place I love when I need a quiet moment or a focused work session.

Their ham & cheese panini is simple, warm, and comforting — perfectly grilled with generous slices of ham and a crisp crust. I paired it with an iced Americano, which had a strong yet smooth flavor, and a hot latte that was well-balanced and not overly milky.

The interior is clean and airy, with modern lighting and a warm atmosphere. Lots of natural light, relaxed music, and no rush — just good vibes and good coffee. Great for studying, chatting, or enjoying a solo coffee break.

Highly recommend if you’re in the Metrotown area or just want to escape the crowds.

✅ Friendly staff
✅ Spacious and calm seating“

“Best coffee in the area HANDS DOWN. Sorry not sorry… this cafe is a hidden gem I wanted to gatekeep for so long but the dalgona coffee is life changing I thought I didn’t like coffee but I think i just didn’t have it done right. The matcha was just okay… def on the sweeter side but such a cute place“

“Recently discovered this gem of a diner. It’s so rare to find a place with a diner vibe that doesn’t feel made for Instagram, and this place accomplishes that. It serves up reasonably priced food that makes for a hearty breakfast or lunch.“

“This is a really great waves. Really wonderful customer service. Fast efficient the location's really cool. I love it. However, I will say the parking is a challenge at this particular location so you're better off parking, possibly across the street and just walking over“

“the food is great and always quickly served. the staff is very friendly and the pricing is reasonable. great portion size as well. support small business!“

“My review is from a really long time ago.
The coffee there tastes not all that great.
But the caffeine level in that coffee was amazing.
First class of my day was calculus.
That coffee got me through it no problem.
I was working faster than the professor could lecture.“

“The line up can be long at peak times, even extending beyond the door of the cafeteria. Food offerings are very reasonably priced and affordable. Food is not bad. Staff are helpful, but not out of their way friendly. Very crowded during lunch with no tables left, however, there is seating outdoors. Food is prepared within 5-15 minutes, depending on item and time. Disposable wooden cutlery is available, self-serve. There is a coffee machine, but it is sometimes out of service.
