34 Best Cafes in Richmond

“If you are at Lansdowne Mall and you need a strong jolt of good coffee, then this is the place for you. In addition to your usual coffee, they also make frappes, macchiato and the like, with real espresso shots! A definite must have if you are doing marathon shopping around the mall!“

“Great coffee stop and baked goods! Loved their strawberry matcha latte and coffee misto.

Would like to come back and try what they offer in terms of food options. But I did see that if you are stopping for food it's a minimum of spend $16 per person.“

“Homemade delicious kvass, ayran. Adjarian-style khachapuri with a knife. But there are a couple of buts.
Khinkali were unusually large and made of thick dough, significantly different from the ones we are used to in Kyiv and Tbilisi. However, I must note that the taste is excellent, there is a lot of meat and broth inside, the thick dough did not have a negative effect, in general. Also, from the negative points, I want to note the location, because it is an industrial zone and it is quite inconvenient to go there, although on the other hand, if the weather allows you to sit outside, you get a beautiful view of the mountains and planes flying low before landing. For some reason the venue played French music instead of Georgian/Armenian, not bad, just an unexpected choice.
I especially want to note the owner, he accepted and delivered orders. A very very friendly man. Creates a friendly home atmosphere. In general, these are the kind of people you want to go back to for dinner/lunch. And we will definitely do it.“

“Hidden gem in a food court. Superb service, small but offering great variety. Many people come for their oysters, but it’s their croissants that captured my heart ?? The mango coconut milk with aloe vera is my go-to for summer—refreshing and not overly sweet. The crème brûlée is also a must-try. I hope they’ll expand and move into a proper café space with seating soon!“

“From outside, you'd think this non descript building houses a run off the mill simple cafe that would get you a quick sandwich on your way to work, but you'd be 100% wrong. This place is a hidden brazilian oasis which offers specialities made with care which you cannot find anywhere else in Metro Vancouver. The staff is super nice and the sandwiches and fried starters are super good. Definetely worth checking!“

“Super friendly owner. Great coffee and pastries ! Highly recommend“

“Awesome service, good matcha ice cream! Will definitely go again to try other items on menu!“

“A neat little coffee shop where I took shelter from the atmospheric river hitting the region over the weekend, and sampled a Cuppercino and a morning glory muffin. Too bad other pastry items were sold out. Very nice and will come back next time.“

“Stopped in after a ride for a delicious breakfast wrap and flat white (Aussie style) great atmosphere“

“We love Carry Coffee’s great coffee and food. Unique atmosphere.“

“Good food at a great price. You can't beat this place if you're in the area.“

“Blue Duck Café is an absolute gem! I recently stopped by and was blown away by the combination of fantastic food, cozy atmosphere, and wonderful service. The moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the warm and inviting décor. It’s the perfect spot whether you’re looking for a quiet coffee break or a full meal with friends.

The menu offers a great variety of options, and everything I tried was delicious. The ingredients were fresh, and the flavors were well-balanced. Whether you're there for breakfast, lunch, or just a snack, Blue Duck Café does not disappoint. The coffee is top-notch too—smooth, rich, and exactly what you need to start your day or power through your afternoon.

The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. They made sure everything was just right without being overbearing, and they were quick to offer recommendations when asked. It’s clear that they genuinely care about providing a great experience for their customers.

The prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and service. It’s a great value for such a lovely experience. The café has a laid-back, yet trendy vibe, which makes it a great spot to meet up with friends or get some work done.

Overall, I can’t recommend Blue Duck Café enough! It’s a must-visit if you’re in the area and looking for a place with excellent food, great coffee, and a relaxed atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again.“

“When I traveled to Vancouver from California, I found this dessert shop and ate there twice. Their mango drink tastes good and looks good. When I take it on the street, people ask me where I bought it. Coconut juice grass jelly is also good.“

“Blenz Coffee at Richmond Centre is a hidden gem, especially during the holiday season! Their Christmas special hot chocolate is absolutely delightful – rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced with festive flavors that bring the holiday spirit to life. The drink is beautifully presented, making it as much a treat for the eyes as it is for the taste buds. The staff are warm, friendly, and go out of their way to provide excellent service, ensuring every visit feels special. The cozy ambiance adds to the charm, making it an ideal spot to relax or catch up with friends. Highly recommend Blenz for a festive and comforting experience!“

“I ordered the truffle cream fettuccine and it was great, even though it was a take out the pasta wasn’t dry out and the truffle flavour was there with two pcs of shaved truffle on top 😋😋 so yummy and probably tastes even better at the restaurant!! Will def dine in next time!! Thanks again Kohei!!“

“I have been to several coffee shops, but Blenz Seafair location is by far the best. Staff on duty is fast and friendly. I also love their decor and the inclusive safe space. This is definitely my go-to coffee place.“

“Fantastic and amazing coffee, shaved ice and other deserts. Also popcorn chicken!“

“The food is incredibly good, great for just passing by and having curly fries or a propeller fry. The curly fry poutine is really good and I suggest the propeller fry flavour that's all of the flavours combined.all in all the place is really good and the staff are friendly.“

“Randomly found this little coffee shop and glad I did! I had a breakfast wrap and cappuccino. Both were really good. The wrap seemed really fresh. The staff was extremely kind.

Vegetarian options: I asked for no ham on the wrap and they offered to replace it with avocado which was greatly appreciated.“

“Good Day)

I was working recently from September till November on yacht.

It was pleasure for me every morning enjoy fresh coffee and few minutes ago baked apple pies.

It good that they have lunch as well as a soup or nice rich chilli)

The boat atmosphere is enjoyable and you always can met interesting people in this location.“

“Quality milk tea, I have tried here many times, all are great. Especially some of their drinks are available in jumbo size, really satisfy my milk tea craving. But the strawberry milk tea I recently ordered was a bit sweeter than other drinks and the drink lacked the tea flavor of milk tea but still a good drink. Also, the staff are really nice and friendly, should be on the list to try when visiting Richmond centre mall.“

“very nice are and close a lot stores and a very good good restaurants“

“nice place to chil, loving it“

“Southside Cafe Catering just catered for my company's AGM this month and our associates and guest gave high praise for the all the food prepared! The owners and their staff were friendly and wonderful! We highly recommend Southside for all your catering needs!“

“Hidden gem! Right outside arrivals when you really need a coffee or treat after a long flight or on the way to transit.

Great espresso options, warm and friendly staff and a really nice place to sit and rest for a moment!

Indeed it’s a little hidden but now that I know it’s here, I have my arrival espresso spot SET.“

“I love all the dishes here....especially honey moon 鴛央炒飯fried rice and 俄國牛柳絲, 葡國雞, definitely one of the best hk cafe in Vancouver that I have tasted !! Every staff there is so friendly and they always remember your name and order is you are a regular !! Me and tofu love it there !!“

“Hard to find any food in this area. This small shop serves soups, sandwiches, and home style Korean food. Udon soup, Bibimbap, fried Gyoza, cali rolls etc. Daily specials include Jap Chae, bulgogi, spicy pork on rice. Good selection of sandwiches and breakfast bagels. Reasonable prices. Can get pusy during the lunch rush due to the limited options in the area. Nice owner team of 2. Always a friendly welcome from the cashier.“

“Nice service providing so far. Employees are really nice behaving. Clean and well maintained restaurant.Fast service 👍 They are well trained I think. Belpreet is very smart and deal the customer good. One of the best Tim Hortons in Vancouver.“

“Just travelled from Bali and had such a good experience with customs and immigration. Such a welcome difference compared to YYZ. (Toronto airport). Thank you for your kindness!!“

“Somewhat out of the way if your flight is not departing from this particular wing of YVR, this was our second visit to this hole in the wall (which no longer operates under the name Java U Cafe). We enjoyed our vegan wraps and cappuccinos. I also purchased an almond croissant but it must have been at least a day old and it was rather stale.The service was good and the prices comparatively reasonable.“

“Rainbow Cafe in Parker Place food court is a fantastic spot for refreshing drinks! Their bubble tea is excellent, with perfectly chewy pearls and a rich, flavorful base. The pear juice is wonderfully fresh and sweet, a real treat. The chrysanthemum tea is soothing and fragrant, ideal for a relaxing break. With friendly service and a cozy atmosphere, Rainbow Cafe is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy high-quality beverages in a welcoming setting.“

“Yesterday I ordered a peach green tea with 30% sugar and it was extremely sweet for my taste. David (a person who worked there) overheard me saying it. He offered to remake my drink and made it to absolute perfection. He was being very attentive and friendly. That drink totally made my day better! Thank you for a great customer service, David!“

“Asian breakfast of champions. They have a grilled cheese and apple sandwich that is quite unique and tasty as it's both sweet and salty. Their club house sandwich was also pretty good. Many layers in the sandwich. Heavily buttered toast. Last, the red bean ice cream drink was rich and nutty from the beans. Yum. For take out, it was packaged well but not cheap.“

“Cozy coffee shop in the corner of a building on the wharf. The shop is very typical of a blenz with exceptionally quick service and friendliness. The coffee shop is a little tight due to the size of the space but has patio seating and window views by the street.“
