47 Best Coffee Shops in Richmond

“Great costumer service, amazing food… feels like “home” 🇧🇷! I have tried the best Pastel, coxinha, kibe, feijoada, mandioca frita and Bolinho de Salsicha! ALL GREAT!!! 👏🙏 will be back for sure!“

“Sunny M is a cozy, little cafe located outside of Empire Centre in Richmond.
Coffee here is awesome. We tried Luna coffee pour over and Coffee Collective americano and both were fantastic.
It might be small but proprietors of the cafe know their coffee beans. I could tell the barista there was quite knowledgeable and I will definitely back for their coffee.“

“Always gotta grab a frozen blended mocha and a peanut butter chocolate dipped cookie! Best all around coffee shop 👌“

“Wonderful food! the chicken and waffles are amazing! You Gotta eat here!“

“Why do I keep going back? For that fresh cup of latte and the yummy baked goods! And of course, that warm welcoming smile! Can't beat that, eh?! 🥐😋💝☕️“

“I walk by this place every morning after the bus ride to work and decided to give it a try. 8:30am is not a busy time, was served quickly. Server was very friendly and answered my questions politely. My cafe mocha was good. Had a great experience!“

“Really enjoyed Chahalo—one of the better bubble tea spots around No. 3 Road. I tried the jasmine green milk tea and was impressed by how pronounced the tea flavour was; fragrant, creamy and not watered down like some places. I’d recommend going around 50% sugar to let the tea come through. The shop has a clean, modern feel and the service was friendly. A little on the pricier side, but the quality is there. Definitely a spot I’d return to.“

“好吃平過美食廣場超值“

“can't be greater, the best cafe I ever visit, definitely recommended!!“

“i went there to get some schoolwork done. the service and atmosphere are really nice. it's a perfect small spot to do any work or just chat with friends. i would say my only concern is that they have very limited seatings. there are only 3 of 4person tables and 2 of the small round tables. people with tables also usually don't leave fast. other than the limited seatings, it's a perfect cozy corner to get work done“

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

“We had such a wonderful experience visiting this store! Philip was incredibly helpful, patient, and welcoming. He took the time to let us try multiple fountain pens, clearly explained the cartridge and ink options, and gave great recommendations tailored to what we were looking for. You rarely find this level of attentive customer service these days. Thank you, Philip, for making our visit so enjoyable we’ll definitely be back!“

“Absolutely amazing coffee. A must visit whenever we are in Richmond. Coffee is well roasted and goes very nicely in Cappucinos (my go to). I actually really appreciate the vibe of this place. It’s clear that the owner/staff are passionate about what they do.“

“Really good prices and big portions for breakfast! Super nice service“

“I love this bookstore! The delicious baked goods made by Angela, their customer service and the vibe of the place. One of my favourite stores in Steveston! Try their Canadiano coffee!! 🍁☕“

“Tasty, and friendly service, but seems a bit pricy for shaved ice ($19 for large one that isn’t that large).

Rent’s probably super expensive for the location. There’s a less expensive place around the corner where the rent is probably less 😁“

“Came here during my trip to Vancouver was a pleasant surprise. The buns seem so normal, but tasted amazing. Would definitely come here again. The lady behind the counter was also extremely enthusiastic and helped us with our choices. Amazing service.“

“Tried the iced Concrete Latte and black sesame latte, and both drinks were really good! ☕ The drinks were definitely the highlight. The food was a bit on the salty side for my taste, but overall, it’s a nice spot to grab a drink and relax. Would come back for the lattes!“

“Came here to try their osmanthus and was not let down. Very fragrant and their pearls were really good texturally. I tried both their osmanthus milk tea and the osmanthus oolong fresh milk tea, both with no extra sugar and both were delicious. No extra sugar was definitely the move as it was quite sweet. The inside is very cute, some seating and they have a little cart of board games for you to play:) will definitely be coming back and I 100% recommend stopping here.“

“Fresher ingredients used on average than competing East Indian lunch buffet restaurant in Langley city. Fresh tandoori chicken, fish and goat curries, fresh naan, hot chai tea, large selection of (pasta) salads, layers of flavour in gulabjamun, moist brownies, very friendly service, free parking and cool air conditioning. Shah-bash from my group of 3 for lunch. Will be back.“

“It’s expensive, and seating inside is limited,
but the dark roast coffee was very good. The coffee cookie on the side was a nice touch. Reminds me of traveling through Europe. Much much better the former big Seattle chain that used to be in this building.“

“I've always had a great experience at this Tim Hortons location. The staff are friendly, hardworking, and always doing their best to serve customers, even when it's busy. The place is consistently clean and well-maintained, and the customer service is excellent.

I truly appreciate the hard work and dedication of the entire team. They deserve recognition for their efforts. Thank you, everyone, and keep up the great work!“

“We just went to the Waves on Hastings. Great service and even better coffee! We are only in town for a night but I will be stopping on my way to the airport tomorrow.“

“nice place to chil, loving it“

“I am very excited about the platter. It is worth trying. We tried the $78 one and the steaks were juicy and delicious. I also enjoyed the waffle with crispy chicken. The display is impressive. The onion rings are crunchy and delicious. The coffee and lavender latte are okay but not necessarily to try. While it is pricey, it is worth it occasionally. We arrived at 10 a.m. and waited 30 minutes for five people. They have indoor and patio options. The indoor option takes longer for waiting.“

“Excellent coffees.

Darker Italian style with lots of nuance: think chocolate & black cherry & not bitter.
Very glad to have access to Parioli again.

Also, note that the resurrected label for the old Roaster Central 9 Bar is ‘Common Grounds Espresso Crema’.“

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

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

“Cash only or etransfer

The chocolate mousse was insanely delicious. I also like the matcha chiffon! The oreo mille feuille is also good.

Imo the drink + dessert combo is always worth it; I love their royal milk tea - it’s full bodied and you choose how much sugar to add.

I’m glad they’ve been able to stay open this long, especially through Covid!“

“Huge shoutout to Matthew Sba at Blenz! He made hands-down the best drink I’ve had in a long time. You can tell he actually cares about quality and pay attention to the details. Beyond the amazing coffee, his customer service was top-notch—friendly, fast, and super welcoming. Give this guy a raise! 🙌“

“Really Good Med roast flavor, wish the 100% Thai coffee was on sale would like to try that.“

“I went here for a drink and snack and I was wearing my weezer hoodie that I got at their show last night, and when I got back, I saw that the baristas drew the blue album on my cup! That made my day! Thank you so much! And I am keeping this cup forever =w= :)“

“玫瑰拉花咖啡很有創意，淡淡的玫瑰花香，口感醇厚好喝！巧克力可頌麵包，夾層脆軟濃郁，令人口齒生津！“

“I went to this shop twice, when I first saw this shop I don’t know it’s a bubble tea shop but luckily I saw the post on the window there is a draw of bubble tea and bubble waffles.I don’t think many people are going into this shop because they don’t know what this shop is for, emmm might need to change the name of the shop so people will know this place have bubble teas.“

“Bright and airy atmosphere thanks to many windows, plus staff are attentive to cleanliness and presentation.

Came here on a whim while visiting Steveston and despite the only 4-star rating, gave it a shot. Glad I did!

Got a Kyoto latte. Nice latte art, kind staff.

Although I didn’t get one, the baked goods and sandwiches looked tasty.

Only gripe: the square tables and chair combination are a bit high for working on a laptop. Poor ergonomics due to arms not being able to lay flat on the table.“

“除了味道👍，同一店可同時買主歺及甜點“

“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.“

“We have traveled British Columbia for the last 4 weeks and have had coffees in many places, including Whistler, Jasper, Banff and Vancouver island, the coffee and service at Paper plains is unrivalled. I would highly recommend stopping in there before you fly out. Well done Paper plains.“

“food food and Good place...“

“My favourite hotpot restaurant :) I love the individual hot pot idea and all the ingredients are very fresh and tasty. Always have an amazing experience here“

“Quite good experience for the food, service and everything. The hostess is very nice and friendly, the speed for serving and providing the order is amazing.

Open 7 days a week, starting from 4pm.

Will definitely come back soon and recommend it to others!“

“The best place to have coffee,unbelievable staff,they remember your name and your favourite,whatever it maybe. Please drop by and sample there magnificent service.“

“excellent service. good atmosphere“

“My favourite Starbucks in Richmond! Lots of space which makes it great for longer sitting. Staff are routinely nice and friendly even in the morning. Plus my mobile orders are always made quickly. Never had a bad experience despite my many visits!“

“Love this little place, has various flavoured teas and traditional and modern teapots. Everything is laid out to easily find what you are looking for. Staff is very friendly and professional. Have been here before and will continue to return. Lots of parking spaces available but the mall is always busy.“

“I used the place cause I was working remotely and i got to have my fav coffee and my banana bread loaf and lemon loaf - yummy 😋“

“This Hong Kong-style cha chaan teng is surprisingly spacious, even during breakfast hours. When we visited in the morning, it was already fairly busy, suggesting that it is a popular spot for breakfast.

One of the best things about this place is the wide selection of Hong Kong-style breakfast options. You can go for traditional choices such as congee and steamed rice rolls, or opt for more contemporary cha chaan teng favourites like satay beef instant noodles, macaroni soup and omelettes. There is something for different tastes, whether you prefer a lighter traditional breakfast or a more filling meal.

The breakfast sets come with Hong Kong-style milk tea, which completes the experience. The pricing is particularly reasonable if you choose a set with two food items, making it good value for a satisfying start to the day.

Another plus is that the dishes are prepared after the order is placed, so the food arrives fresh and hot rather than having been sitting around. This makes a difference, especially for breakfast dishes that are best enjoyed straight from the kitchen.

Overall, this is a good place to visit when you are craving a Hong Kong-style breakfast. With its spacious dining area, extensive menu and reasonably priced breakfast sets, it offers a convenient way to start the day with some familiar cha chaan teng comfort food.“
