50 Best Coffee Shops in Vancouver

“What an amazing little spot! Highly recommend. Enjoyed the vegan waffles with spinach, avocado, feta, walnuts and sriracha infused maple syrup. The pastries and coffee were immaculate too!!“

“This place is so great. The staff are all super friendly, the coffee and baked goods are tasty (priced on the higher side, but then it's a small shop), and best of all the staff seems to be quite kind to Downtown Eastside folks—which is something that matters a lot to me (especially for businesses that choose to open here.)“

“Wonderful food and coffee, would recommend! The only challenge is that it is consistently busy and the seating is somewhat limited if you’re looking for a dedicated space to sit and chat (especially weekend and early afternoons).

Very good!“

“Such delicious brunch! Always a busy spot. Great vibe and ambience. The Bennies, tater tots, and fried chicken for breakfast are all amazing. I will say the jam on the bacon benny is interesting, providing a new flavour I’ve never experienced.

One thing that could improve is, they only offer a limited take-out menu, which is very disappointing if you aren’t able to get a table and want to do takeout instead. There are only a few menu items to choose from for takeout and it doesn’t include Bennies (a shame because they are delicious!)“

“Nice place for brunch with friends!“

“my favourite coffee shop to stop by when I’m in the west end. Friendly, cozy atmosphere and the coffee is great. It’s really nice being able to find freshly baked conchas too outside of a specialty Mexican bakery (they’re my favourite Mexican baked good and such a flashback to growing up in Mexico City). Give this place a visit if you’re looking for an alternative to a cold, corporate cafe.“

“My first visit today following recommendations from 2 friends and it was a great experience. Friendly staff and totally delicious bread for my prosciutto and brie sandwich and truly excellent coffee in my cappuccino. Will certainly be visiting again. when i am in he area and all best wishes to the owners and staff for this gem to thrive.“

“5 stars! Would recommend to anyone who values high quality coffee, tea and sandwiches. The staff are wonderfully nice and everything is locally sourced.“

“Cafe Signal is a fantastic family-run cafe. The food, drinks, service and atmosphere are all top-notch. It's a shame they're on the second floor as I'm sure it affects their foot traffic. It's worth the trip upstairs though.“

“The chocolate cake and glaced doughnuts and apple. Taylors breakfast tea is great.“

“Stopped by Kramky Cafe for the first time today and I’m really glad I did. It’s in my neighborhood but a bit out of my usual route, so this was my first visit and definitely not my last.

The two staff working today were incredibly kind and welcoming, which immediately set a good tone. The place has a great vibe. It’s cozy, small, and very much a neighborhood café feel, with nice music playing in the background that makes you want to slow down and enjoy your coffee.

I had their drip coffee, which was really good, and I liked that they use Moja Coffee, a solid Vancouver local roaster. I paired it with a sugar-free berry muffin, and the only sweetness comes from the banana, blueberry, and pineapple. It tasted clean, light, and surprisingly satisfying. Perfect for breakfast without feeling heavy. Best of all, come early around 730 and you’re in for some warm baked goods fresh from the oven!

Overall, great coffee, thoughtful food, kind service, and a relaxed neighborhood atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back to try something else next time.“

“Excellent cappuccino. A coffee shop, recommended by our hotel staff, that only serves coffee (espresso, cappuccino, latte, drip).“

“Excellent service. Great food. !! 😁“

“Friendly staff. Lots of food variety. The matcha latte is made from a tea bag not from powder so I felt a bit ripped off that I paid nearly $7 with alternate milk for a teabag. I hope they reconsider the price or switch to proper matcha powder.

Unlike other reviewers, I like that there is no wifi so it's always easy to get a table.“

“Best lemonade in town! The panini were good too. No rush feeling, lots of people coming in for coffee and friendly servers 😀“

“I went to this café today on fourth Avenue. The atmosphere was classy, the service was awesome. And I really like the vibe. I was going for a walk with my dog and every coffee shop had a horrendous lineup. I am glad that I stumbled across this café. !“

“The Hawaiian latte is the most delicious coffee I've had in a long time. Beautiful store, and fast staff.“

“Best coffee in Vancouver“

“One of the most unique cafes in the city! I had the chicken and prosciutto sandwich with one of their cookies. They were both delicious! The staff were great too! The cafe was busy but the workers still noticed when I needed a refill of my water. I can’t wait to try one of their drinks when I return!“

“Nice place, great atmosphere, convenient location, open 24 hours - sounds like a complete package right?

A good spot for you to enjoy your hot/cold drink, catch up with your mate, or if you just want to grab a bite. Definitely worth recommending!“

“I visited Coffee Date today with my sister and honestly loved it. The place is super cute and aesthetic, and the vibe is really cozy. The coffee was amazing and the food was really good too. The staff were so friendly and just really sweet, which made the whole experience even better. I’m definitely going back again, such a nice little spot.“

“This café has been a real discovery for me. The coffee is incredibly delicious, the food is excellent, and the atmosphere is calm, cozy, and truly special — a rare combination. I’m always happy to come here even from the other side of the city and would definitely recommend it to anyone who appreciates great taste and comfort!“

“Went to Koffie today and had an Americano with avocado toast. The café is a bit hidden, but it really surprised me in a good way. Excellent service, calm atmosphere, and good music. It’s also well located, making it a great spot to relax or get some work done. Definitely a place I’ll come back to.“

“Best Daquoise pastry, very light and fluffy， not very sweet but rich flavor. must try.“

“Great cafe with incredible chai lattes and coffee. Very friendly team and a beautiful atmosphere.“

“Philip and his team are so amazing and kind! We tried their mango matcha as well as regular matcha, and it did not disappoint!! Stopping by and chatting it up with the owner himself was one of the highlights of our day today. Amazing service and amazing vibe! We will definitely be visiting again, maybe Red velvet matcha next??!“

“I was honoured to meet Nadia and try her excellent cuisine. I had a soup, beef rolls and Moroccan delicatessen. Originally from Morocco, I felt at home with the decor the warmth of Nadia and the delicious food. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to experience North African/spanish and international food“

“I’m not usually one for hotel or office building coffee shops but I was in a rush and decided to try. I was impressed. My Americano misto was delicious with beautiful foam and the portion size on the breakfast sandwich was huge!! Not what I expected. I’m glad I didn’t order something else. I would have been too full. If this place was a stand alone and not tucked into a corner it be 5 star all day!!“

“Best lemonade in town! The panini were good too. No rush feeling, lots of people coming in for coffee and friendly servers 😀“

“With impeccable attention to every last detail from the Japandi-inspired zen like interior to each of the carefully curated artisanal offerings, in a world of ubiquitous coffee shops SLO Coffee has created something refreshingly different.“

“Cafe Kitsuné offers a relaxed, stylish atmosphere that blends minimalist design with a cozy feel. The space is bright and thoughtfully laid out, making it a comfortable spot to sit for a while or stop in for a quick drink. The coffee is consistently good smooth, well balanced, and carefully prepared but the matcha is a real standout. It’s rich, earthy, and well-whisked, not overly sweet, and feels high quality. Pastries are fresh and pair nicely with both the coffee and matcha, though the selection is somewhat limited. Service is friendly and efficient, and overall the cafe delivers a polished experience that feels modern yet welcoming. A solid choice for both coffee and matcha lovers looking for a calm place to recharge.“

“While staying in Vancouver as part of our travels, we stumbled upon this place and are so happy we came inside. Friendly staff, lovely local atmosphere, and the food was super yummy! The flavours were fresh and delicious. I had the Caprese sandwich, and my boyfriend got the Joe Grinder! 🙌🏻“

“We didn't really eat there. We just had coffee. The place is really cozy. It is a bit pricy but everything is now. We sat outside. Luckily, it was sunny. But we livted the time we spent there. I live in the neighborhood and we love it. In short, it is a nice place to visit.“

“With many reasons to show some love I feel most of all is to live good and healthy is with a kind mouth and this one loves the good beans & a good man and old friend Alistair Durie :)“

“seriously, The BEST coffee shop in East Vancouver, hands down! Javier and Rebecca are Welcoming, friendly, ready for a laugh and all around an absolute Joy to interact with. The coffee and fresh baking is some of the best I have ever tasted and it's always served with a warm smile ✨️☕️ 10 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Americano was so strong. Normally I am okay with the taste. Also I wasn’t finish the coffee yet and I was buying pastry, staff just got my coffee before I finish. I wanted to finish with my pastry. It wasn't to much so I didn't say but they should ask before take it. Super clean place and good silent patio.“

“The Hawaiian latte is the most delicious coffee I've had in a long time. Beautiful store, and fast staff.“

“yes, as seen in High Times and other magazines, it's an amazing place. if you're a local or just a tourist, definitely worth the trip. I met some amazing friends from all over the world there, it's a hub. amazing greens,food and people.“

“We went for a decent cup of coffee while staying at the Hampton Inn nearby. Good coffee from a selection of good roasts. The pour over is done right. The staff are friendly. It's a small place with nice ambiance. Only five small tables, one large one and two bar height tables.“

“Fun, comfortable environment lovely food and beverages“

“Cafe & Life Co on Seventh Street in Vancouver is totally one of my go-to cozy spots for unwinding, getting some work done or hanging out with friends! As soon as you walk in, the warm lighting, rustic wooden furniture and lush greenery wrap you in such a welcoming vibe that you’ll never want to leave.
I grabbed a flat white and the salmon guacamole bagel here today, and both were chef’s kiss! The flat white was perfectly brewed—super smooth with velvety microfoam on top, rich coffee flavor with zero bitterness, it’s the ultimate pick-me-up. The salmon guacamole bagel was absolute perfection too; the bagel was toasted to golden, crispy perfection, stuffed with fresh, tender smoked salmon and creamy, zesty guacamole, a hint of lemon brightens every bite, so satisfying and flavorful.
The staff are so friendly and attentive, always happy to suggest their seasonal specials. Even on busy weekends, the vibe stays chill and laid-back, no loud chaos at all. This place is such a hidden gem in Vancouver—I’m already a total regular and will definitely bring more friends to check out this lovely little haven soon!“

“Atmosphere and quality product in a Lovely neighborhood <3“

“Been going there for a few years and I love it 💜“

“Good quality; great service !“

“Nice place for a coffee and a cinnamon bun! I went for a large Latte and a huge cinnamon bun(for about 11$) - the bun was not sugary and I loved it actually. Service is nice and friendly, nothing to say here. She told me that muffins and buns are cooked every day which is good.“

“I come here most morning for coffee and I feel like I’ve entered into my own home❤️ A friendly place with community vibes!“

“We found Aidan’s when we were looking for a nice place for a break.
Lovely atmosphere clean environment and tasty eats just the perfect place for an afternoon break.
We ordered a yogurt parfait scrumptious! A tuna sandwich with capers delicious! And an Americano.
There were two perfect chairs and light music playing overhead.
I would recommend Aidan’s for a break or lunch or a grab and go.“
