50 Best Coffee Shops in Vancouver

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

“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!!“

“Excellent service. Great food. !! 😁“

“This tea shop in Vancouver Chinatown is a true gem for tea lovers and anyone curious about the world of tea. The quality and diversity of their teas are exceptional. Whether you're looking for delicate white teas, robust pu-erhs, or fragrant oolongs, they have an incredible selection that caters to all tastes and preferences. Each tea is carefully sourced, and you can really tell the care and expertise that goes into curating their offerings. The owner Daniel's passion for tea is infectious, and his knowledge is both deep and approachable. During a tea-tasting session, he guided us through a curated selection, explaining the nuances of each variety and how to properly savor them. It was a relaxing and educational experience, and I left with a greater appreciation for the art of tea. Whether you're a seasoned tea drinker or just starting to explore, The Chinese Tea Shop is a welcoming and enriching place to visit. I highly recommend stopping by for a taste of their wonderful teas and the chance to learn from Daniel's expertise.“

“I was impressed with how my matcha latte was crafted. It was of premium grade, no added sugar like Starbucks.

There is nothing negative about this coffee shop. They have a big selection of breads, pastries, and desserts. Mind you the portions are huge, too! I bought my favorite, of course, the croissants, both butter and almond, which I had to share with my sis. The tiramisu was absolutely good as well!

The next time I am in downtown, I will have to come back here!“

“Renzullo Food Market is a true gem in Vancouver. Every visit feels like stepping into a charming store in Italy. Franco and his team are incredibly welcoming, making you feel like you’re visiting a friend’s house. Their selection of authentic Italian products is exceptional. I have been working in the area for two weeks, but when I step in, I feel like I'm visiting family. I initially stopped by for their paninis but soon discovered their great selection of cantuccini, olives, pasta, deli meats, and more. The quality and authenticity are unmatched, and their espresso is the best I’ve had in Vancouver! The staff’s warmth and the genuine Italian ambiance make every visit a delight. I highly recommend Renzullo Food Market to anyone looking for quality Italian foods and a taste of Italy in Vancouver. Grazie mille, Franco!“

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

“The ham and cheese pain suisse (I think that’s what it’s called) was outstanding! Up there for one of the best savoury breakfast pastries I’ve had — and I know them well. It had just a hint of heat on top, which added to the standout flavours. Awesome.“

“Solid ratio of goat cheese to guava, been sold out 2 times I’ve attempted to go. Annabelle’s gets pretty busy despite being a small shop, they have outside seating they set up which seems very lively. The service has been friendly every time I’ve been and they got options for people with dietary restrictions which is great.“

“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.“

“Had such a lovely experience today at Amberdo. The atmosphere was calm, cozy, and genuinely relaxing. The staff were all incredibly kind and welcoming. I tried the pistachio croissant and the Spanish latte, and both were absolutely amazing. Everything felt warm, friendly, and made with care. Definitely a place I’d love to visit again. ❤❤“

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

“Best pasta salad of my god damn life (Cajun kale Caesar salad). The pumpkin loaf is what dreams are made off - perfectly dense, sweet, fluffy.. & the matcha's always hit perfect... not to mention the staff are so lovely and friendly. Hands down the best little cafe, every time I visit - everything's amazing. All my friends love this place now too! Thanks legends!“

“Stumbled in last Saturday afternoon after a long morning walking the city, and TV Dinner Market & Cafe was exactly the kind of unpretentious spot I'd been hoping to find. The grilled cheese they had on the menu looked simple on paper but came out perfectly golden with this sharp cheddar that actually had some character to it. Staff were genuinely warm without being performative about it, the kind of easy friendliness you don't always get in a trendy neighborhood cafe. I travel constantly and places like this - relaxed, consistent, real - are the ones I actually remember and come back to.“

“Came here after a day of shopping with my friend. We got poured down on when making our way over (<\3) Anyways!! This place is so cozy and welcoming. We were greeted immediately and the staff was very friendly and patient. I got their blueberry matcha latte and their chocolate mousse, and genuinely both were so good. The blueberry was a good sweetness in comparison to the matcha itself, and the chocolate mousse was cold and creamy. Definitely come and check them out; not only is their stuff super yummy but they have board games for you to use too!“

“One of my absolute favorite cafes in Vancouver! The interior has a charming, vintage vibe, and the hidden outdoor patio in the back is such a peaceful retreat. Excellent coffee with great roast options, delicious pastries (the chocolate scone is a must!), and always warm, friendly service. Highly recommended!“

“The owner and workers are very friendly plus they have a good service.“

“Trust the reviews! First time here and coffee was great. Pretty picky (pallet is my favourite) about coffee, got an iced latte and it was strong with my preferred notes! Coffee is chocolate notes instead of acidic fruit or floral. Only gripe is they dont have many dairy options (skim, 2%) BUT its a small cafe so I get it and they have plethora of milk alternatives. Latte is higher than average but again, small business :)“

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

“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 was looking for breakfast spot to meet a friend early in downtown Vancouver at 7 AM and came across this café in Coal Harbour. I enjoyed A nice breakfast plate and a latte. It was pretty busy and the tables were placed relatively close together. I do feel it was a nice place to go for an early coffee.“

“Best coffee in Vancouver“

“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.

“Nice place for brunch with friends!“

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

“The girl that was working tonight i’m not sure her name, but she needs a raise. Working granville street alone at night is insane by itself but she is so kind and helpful to her customers. 100/10 service she was so kind and helpful that I came back twice. It’s not easy being on Granville at night. I hope she is being fairly compensated, she is amazing at her job. Will definitely be returning.“

“Great almond milk latte & delish cinnamon buns. Owners -Pete & Gillian are lovely to chat with.“

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

“the drinks here are all so delicious, all feel very high quality. worth trying anything and everything! especially compared to another cafes on main street, this cafe is extremely study/work friendly. if you come during non-peak hours, it's easy to get a seat. there's a variety of seating options, all of which are very comfortable and adequately spacious. it's very cozy and not too loud, plus there are tons of outlets and free wifi.“

“Had a great experience here! We ordered the Nutella Crepe, Specialty Pasta Crepe, and Nutella Waffles, and they even surprised us with an extra one on the house! Everything was delicious, generously portioned, and definitely satisfied our sweet cravings. Great value for money, and the complimentary treat was such a nice gesture. Would definitely recommend!“

“The sandwich looked innocent….It was not. One bite and suddenly I’m emotionally invested in this food! The coffee - Amazing!!! Smooth, strong, and apparently capable of fixing problems that are well beyond its job description.

5 stars. Came for breakfast. Left with a new personality.“

“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.“

“:) never get enough of dose! come come~“

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

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

“Great coffee and even better service. The barista noticed I was into different beans and started giving me recommendations. I’d ordered an Americano, but he brought over a pour-over sample he’d made himself and it was fantastic. I wanted to buy the beans but they were out, so he actually called another shop to track them down for me. Didn’t try the food, but the pastries coming out to other tables looked amazing. Really personable, and the coffee is excellent.
Plus, great wifi and comfy tables for some laptop work
Highly recommend.“

“Heard about Bisou Coffee and Pastries a while ago, and I finally got the chance to try it today.

The staff were all very welcoming, and I had a nice chat with Ava, she kindly introduced me to more pastry options.

It was a delicious experience overall, and I’ll definitely be coming back for more.“

“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 :)“

“Decent pizza spot for a quick bite. The dough had a nice chew and there was a good spread of toppings to choose from. I definitely preferred the thin slices over the thicker, breadier ones. Bonus points for showing the football game, I ended up hanging around a bit longer than planned.“

“Love their lemon grass grill chicken panini and Coffee! Health yummy food and friendly staffs ! Will come visit again with friends ! ❤️😋😋👍“

“We've been coming here during our bike rides, when we're super hungry. The sandwiches are huge (easily could be shared by 2 people) and pricing is fair.

The staff are friendly and efficient at pumping out the food. Even when we have a lage group (+10 people) the wait isn't long before everyone gets their food.

The crispy chicken parmigiana sandwich is always a hit. The chicken was crispy and not dry. Add in some marinara sauce and melted cheese? And you have a winning combo.

The beef dip with caramelized onions and truffle mustard was also amazing. Throw in the dipping sauce and you have another classic.

We always look forward to coming here during our bike rides. I can see why it is a fan favorite with the locals.“

“Awesome food, great service in a unique, cozy - almost too cozy as you are seated very close to the other patrons. There is an artsy vibe with all the art on the walls and glass art on the tables. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend.“

“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.“

“Great ambience. Yummy hot chocolate!“

“Love this place on East Hastings - the girls are so friendly and fun, this will be my favorite coffee/tea place because I work across the street, come visit - we will have coffee“

“Discovered Saunter yesterday afternoon when my wife and I were having a lowkey day and looking for a new coffee spot while walking around downtown. I had the Grapefruit Espresso Tonic while she had the Tiramisu Cold Foam Iced Coffee; we both loved our respective drinks. We’ll definitely be back again soon.“

“I would have taken a photo but I couldnt stop eating. Best sandwich ever. Good prices and really good portions- from amount of meat, lots of cheese, perfect amount of sauce and the foccasia... so, so good. Service was also beyond top notch. If I could give it more stars I would, highly recommend because everyone needs to try them. Thank you!“
