Fantastic!! Firstly they're vegan and cruelty free and extremely eco friendly. The staff there (sorry I do not know their names) but the mom and daughter they make everything with so much care and they talk to us and truly make us feel welcome. I honestly feel like I've come to my grandma's house when u go there. So much love and such delicious vegan food and coffee. They also have postcards that the mom designed herself and it's a truly wholesome cafe. Me and my boyfriend try to go every Sunday. The paninis are the bomb and super tasty

I stumbled upon this cozy cafe one day and was curious about I would like a vegan cafe as a non-vegan myself. Not only was the coffee and food very good, the owner is so pleasant to talk to and it is very rare to find a local spot where you feel so welcome. I can’t wait to bring my friends and family by!

We LOVED this shop. Their food is spectacular, and the owners are the sweetest people. We came here instead of another place with a long line, when Wild Trails should have the long line!!

A very special place in North Van, being a tourist I felt very welcomed by the lovely lady at the counter that made great conversation! The vegan breakfast sandwich was delicious and I was hooked on the smoothies, tried a few and all were very tasty and healthy. The price was also very reasonable for food that is actually good for you, I recommend ?

⭐️Wild Trails Coffee!!!⭐️I love this place!!!Their menu is ALL Vegan!(which means no meat or anything that comes from an animal) Which seems to be hard to find these days. Lovely ambience and energy right when you walk in.The lady at the counter was really nice and patient with me as I asked my questions and for recommendations. The coffee was amazing, the panini was to die for! I had walked many blocks to look for an all vegan establishment to support so I was hungryyy!Then I had the pleasure to speak w the chef whilst she so compassionately freed a couple bees with a cup (they flew in while we were chatting about the ethics of eating factory farmed animals and their by-products and health issues that arise with that)Very interesting place and menu! Great food and drinks for all! Can’t wait to go back and try the breakfast sandwich and wraps. They also sell health products, bought a couple of yummy sodas infused with herbs. They are so good. Also I will be back for the Shilajit powdered health supplement, it is very hard to find and they have some high quality stuff! Thank you to this wonderful mom and daughter team ❤️?❤️PS they had their Halloween decorations up if you’re wondering about the decor. Hehe

First I want to say I love the attitude of this place, the “f u we’re vegan” vibe is great ??
I stopped in for just a coffee and just baked good, not expecting anything much just from reading the website and the reviews which was fine. The lady cooking seemed very kind when she offered to warm up the bun that I got but before when I asked the lady in the front what baked goods they had she said they only had a couple things and pointed me in the direction of the bakery down the street (didn’t expect that). Also I wanted to pay after I ordered but she was busy which is fine but after she handed me the coffee and bun and was like okay bye, and I was just confused so I just asked if I could pay lol ? just an awkward 15 minutes oh well
The coffee was good, but when I started to eat the cinnamon bun (although very good) had a couple bites with a faint taste of onion which put me off. But I finished it nonetheless.
Maybe I just had a slightly weird experience here but it didn’t put me off the place completely. I see a lot of good reviews of the savoury foods here which I think is great and if I’m in the area I’ll try one of those out.

What a great vibe! Delicious food. Fabulous service. Had a great conversation with the person who made our order. Took her advice on a fabulous hike and enjoyed a sandwich and panini on the trail.

Wild Trails Coffee is tucked away on 14th St., just off Lonsdale Ave. Everything they serve is 100% Vegan, and they are a Zero Waste Business that uses only biodegradable products. I had a couple of BOGO free coupons from my Plant -Based Deals book for this shop, so I used them both to buy a couple of Breakfast sandwiches and lattes to bring home for my daughter and I to eat.There's only one type of Breakfast sandwich at this shop but it is awesome! In place of scrambled eggs, there was a tofu patty inside. Our daughter has never really liked actual eggs. This tofu patty worked much better for her. Instead of actual bacon, they use an Yves brand plant based bacon. It was sooo good! Bacon is probably one of the meats that our daughter would miss most if she ever attempted to stop eating meat, but she didn't miss it at all with this breakfast sandwich. She loved the sandwich so much that she asked if I would take her to Wild Trails Coffee sometime so she can eat this breakfast sandwich again!For the BOGO latte drinks I chose a Chai latte, and a Vanilla latte. If I recall correctly, the options were Almond milk, Soy milk, or Oat milk. Decided to go with the Oat milk. Both drinks were very tasty.If you're in the neighbourhood I would definitely recommend checking this place out!Service: ExcellentParking: Free parking on the streetLocation:134 East 14th St., North Vancouver, BC

Really great little spot. Came with some older non-vegans who thoroughly enjoyed their vegan breakfast sandwiches and coffee. Nice little patio with benches that was perfect for bringing our dog as well. Super accommodating with the Plant Curious coupons as well, and lovely chatty owner :)
We needed to have breakfast before the 11 am visiting hours at the Lion Gate Hospital, and found this place on google map.Very nice and friendly owner/ worker. She asked if we were first time here and wanted to make sure we were okay with them being vegan. We are not vegan but we want to try places with high ratings.They have a cute little breakfast sandwiches that looks like a McMuffin. It tasted better than expected. We also had Chai Latte, which was also good.There were two small couches inside so we made ourselves comfortable for our chat.Our friend is going to stay at the hospital for a while, I will come back to try their Matcha Latte another time.Just feel good to support a local small business instead of a giant chain. Plus, everything there is compostable!
Vegetarian options: They are 100% vegan.

Awesome vegan food, coffee and smoothies. I had a bagel with vegan cream cheese and it was amazing - I have a dairy allergy and it's life-changing to be able to enjoy a bagel the way it was intended. I also tried a smoothie with ginger, turmeric, mango and banana and it was delicious! This place has a nice patio, too. Service was great, I'll definitely be back.

Cozy café that is conveniently close to Lions Gate Hospital and just set in from Lonsdale. I used coupons from my Plant Curious book here. Had their breakfast sandwich, which was quite tasty, but rather messy to eat as the cheese was quite melty when eaten fresh (the cheese was soft and dripping out). Just use extra napkins! Bought a coconut lemon loaf as well. For drinks, I used a 2 for 1 latte coupon, but was told I could order any drink and use the BOGO deal, so there was some flexibility in what one could order. I still got the lattes, but this was SO appreciated as some businesses are so strict with what you can order with the coupons and offer no flexibility. They were unfortunately out of almond milk when I was there, but Silk's Nextmilk was the next best alternative. Both the vanilla and hazelnut lattes were good, soothing options!It looks to be family run and has limited seating inside, and out front on a covered patio. Good service.
