“It's a lovely shop though it can be hard to find seats at times. Very popular, they have a laptop study room almost near the back. There's also outside seating when its not too cold. I stop here every time I'm in North Van.“

“Fantastic cafe
I work nearby and stop by for matcha two to three times a week.The staff are always warm and welcoming, especially Shima, who is incredibly kind and friendly. The matcha here is consistently delicious—smooth, rich, and perfectly prepared. I really appreciate having such a great local spot in the neighborhood. Thank you for the excellent service and amazing drinks!“

“I've visited many coffee shops over the years, but this one truly stands out—the coffee here is the best I've ever had.

It's a cozy, family-owned spot with limited indoor seating, but there’s also outdoor seating available, which adds to the charm. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates quality coffee and a welcoming atmosphere.“

“First time here this weekend as we are from across the water and we will be back every time we visit the big city now. From the amazing customer service including how sweet and genuine they were to a regular in front us helping him locate his umbrella to the exceptional warm and friendly service we received as well. Also amazing coffee and treats!“

“Everything is great no complaints….. but please get free wifi for your customers in the 555 location. We pay a premium to drink and eat here the least that could be done is free wifi. Thank you for your consideration thank you 🙏“

“I recently visited this bakery and was impressed by their wide selection of baked goods—everything I tried was fresh and delicious. The atmosphere is quiet and cozy, making it a perfect spot to bring a laptop and get some work done. Great treats and a peaceful environment—I'll definitely be back“

“Today I was so happy to discover this little Korean-style café inNorth Vancouver . The food was absolutely delicious, and the coffee was even organic! Usually when I come to the NV area, I only visit a few of the well-known cafés, but this time I searched on Google and found this five-star hidden gem — and it truly lived up to the rating.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming, always with a smile. The breakfast and brunch menu was really interesting — even the avocado toast came in several creative variations, and the prices were very reasonable. We ordered the Avocado Egg Sourdough Toast and the Bibimbap Bowl for 10.99, with extra mushrooms. Everything was freshly prepared by the chef, so it arrived warm.
Their special sauce was unique — a little spicy, a little tangy — drizzled over the avocado toast, paired with fresh salad greens that really boosted the appetite. The beef was also seasoned perfectly, very flavorful, and the coffee was rich and aromatic.
Definitely a place I highly recommend!“

“This is a fantastic store for the Lonsdale experience. I remember they had a couple of Persian flavor gelatos here, like the akbar mashti. It's really really good. This place has been around for many years. The lattes are good here and it use to be my quick stop every morning before I hit traffic.

They've also won awards as well and they are involved with the community.
Plenty of parking around. Summer time gets busy.“

“Great little coffee shop. Alot of the food is made up by the owner and you can tell the difference. It's called quality! You pay a little more but well worth it. I love supporting small non franchise shops. Service is always, with a smile!“

“The caffè mocha from JJ Bean was outstanding. The perfect blend of rich espresso and silky chocolate created a warm, indulgent treat that wasn’t overly sweet. The whipped cream and cocoa topping added a touch of luxury, and the balanced flavors left a memorable finish. A must-try for coffee and chocolate lovers!“

“best place to get a fresh smoothie after a great work out or a long day at the office.“

“Simple, healthy and delicious meals prepared from fresh vegan ingredients! It’s filling, super satisfying and guilt free eat all the time.“

“I love this place, they have everything and it's delicious and made well. My sons loves the food. The appearance of the store is always very inviting as well as the staff is considerate and kind to customers. I wish thier were more stores that provide quality products such as Stongs.“

“Being a 49th Parallel, you can expect excellent coffees and over-the-top doughnuts. Just don’t expect consistently good service. About half of the time, the baristas at this location seem either too busy or too pretentious to care about their customers. That’s a shame given the quality of the product they are selling and the prices they charge for them.“

“The staff is so disrespectful! We arrived at this place around 12:35pm and the hostess said they would have a 35 min wait list. We said ok, got our names in the wait list and left. After 35 min I came back for a time check and the hostess said more 30 min wait. We have a toddler and 1 hour wait would be too much for the toddler. I asked to talk to the manager but the hostess said there was no manager on duty that day. I insisted since that wouldn't make any sense. After begging to talk to the person in charge, finally someone showed up. The manager was even more disrespectful than the hostess - she kept this ironic smile all the time and said that the hostess removed our names from the list by mistake but nothing could be done, not even offer us the top of the wait list and we had to go to the bottom of the list again. She also said they were doing the best they could - I left without saying a word since keep discussing was just pointless - when I walk out the door I just heard "and please don't come back". Just don't come here.“

“Delicious coffee and a great location!
Caffè Artigiano at the Shipyards is a gem in North Vancouver. The coffee is top quality—rich, smooth, and well-crafted. The location couldn’t be more convenient, just steps from the water and perfect for a post-walk stop. There’s plenty of seating, both indoors and outdoors, making it a great spot to relax or meet a friend. The staff are welcoming and friendly, and the whole place has a warm, inviting vibe. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this place is worth a visit.

Wishing the team continued success—and may your espresso always be dialed in perfectly! ☕️“

“Nastaran helped me today. She did her best. I will appreciate the manager who hire these kind of talented teenagers who are really good with their customers service.10/10 for everything.all the best for you girl in all part of your life, you made my day with your nice behaviour and beautiful smile.🌸“

“I loved the live music on the patio! It reminds of some live music events at Lonsdale Quay and was so nice to have close to where I live. Local music is rarely so accessible between cost and location. ❤️“

“Awesome & attractive, Lynn Canyon Cafe, situated immediately before entrance of Lynn Canyon Suspension bridge in north Vancouver in B. C., offers good assortment of food items, fast food & others, in terms of best quality, leading to a highly acceptable level to the visitors in an ambience of cleanliness, friendliness & harmony - where mountain walkers get a sigh of relief after getting exhausted at end of their involvements - walking, bathing, climbing.“

“A little Gem at Quarry Rock. A few steps away from all the busy shops. If u a need a few mins to relax, have a nice coffee or a cold one and a bite, this is the place.
Prices are really reasonable when you compare with the places around.“

“Best coffee. For years we brought it back to Winnipeg and now we are back in bc. The decaf espresso is unbelievable and Swiss Water process.“

“After an absolutely gruelling hike, this was literally the best coffee I have ever had in my life! The staff were so friendly, service was the quickest I’ve ever experienced, and the views were INCREDIBLE!
The cups are also so cute, I’m keeping it as a souvenir.“

“First time being there this morning Excellent service I like the idea of bringing my own cup The strawberry matcha was Yummie I had it made with almond milk My Beef Bulgogi Brioche sandwich was tasty The egg was cooked perfectly for the sandwich. Yes I would buy it again The bakery section had a variety of baked items - which I will try on next visit .“

“o.m.g. their butter chicken dinner was to die for soo melt in your mouth with every bite super delicious <3 im definitely coming back“

“Great coffee And friendly staff for bring me water for my dogs . Nice cafe for relaxing and a quick bite ! 👍🐶“

“Barrio is one of the better places to get your coffee in Vancouver and if you live or are anywhere in North Van, this is a place you definitely want to go. Coffee is reasonably priced and there is seating inside to enjoy your coffee (appropriately safe during Covid restrictions). The cafe also sells beans if you need beans for home. P.s if you’re an Aussie or a Kiwi you’ll love it as Barrio is run by an Aussie, so you can expect good standards.“

“GREAT PLACE TO MELLOW OUT AND ENJOY.“
