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!!“

“Cute little cafe in Chinatown.
Warm and cozy atmosphere. Friendly staff and customers.
The menu is small but looks really nice. I ordered a hojicha latte thinking it was horchata (brain fart). Me couldn’t pronouncing it was my first mistake.
I’m sure the baked goods here is excellent as they smelled amazing.“

“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!“

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

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

“Small little cafe serving great sandwich. Chicken pesto 🙏

Just a little awkward due to the tight space when waiting for pick up/take out. Do I stand near the pick up area or further out closer to the door…? Otherwise, super friendly staffs :)“

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

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

“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.“

“Excellent service. Great food. !! 😁“

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

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

“Lovely cafe with great food and ambiance! The almond croissant was amazing and probably the best I've had in Vancouver so far (you could taste the almond extract and the croissant had crispy flaky layers and wasn't too sweet). Prices are slightly higher than average. Will need to try the drinks next!

Quiet little cafe with a few tables, soft music and free wifi and washroom. Great for studying and small chats. The service was great too! Overall, highly recommend!“

“Went to this place with my bestie and it was SO adorable! I absolutely love the retro vibe & decor in here, the coffee was incredible (doesn’t taste burnt like a lot of places) and I love how they have a selection of local premade foods. Very cozy cafe and I highly recommend!“

“Great place for brunch. Their monthly special drinks are always excellent (the April Lemon Poppyseed Matcha was one of my favourite matcha combinations ever), and their food is delicious too. Recommend going early to grab one of their mochi donuts, as these tend to sell out. Sad to hear they're closing in Sep!“

“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 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Nice place for brunch with friends!“

“Best coffee in Vancouver“

“Kranky's is super cute, with friendly service and a great vibe! BUT their STAR item is the Carrot Cake. The absolute best carrot cake I've ever had. Perfectly moist, an amazing icing that's smooth, sweet and fluffy, topped generously with walnuts. I'm obsessed.“

“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“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Amazing staff and delicious Lox sandwich!
Had a tiny mix-up with our order this morning, but the staff was so sweet about it. They refunded us right away and even gifted us some cookies! Superbstaff and top-notch service. We tried the Lox sandwich and it was incredibly tasty, and the coffee was great too. A perfect little spot in downtown!“

“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 place in the drive hands down. Relaxing atmosphere, really chill. But so conversational and extremely local. Everyone shows up in their best behaviour. Pizza is amazing, drinks are amazing, vibes are amazing I’ve been a consistent customer for years and I find myself here many days out of the week. Highly recommend :)“

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

“First time to try Coffee Date this afternoon and we had a positive experience! We had their Blueberry Matcha and Tiramisu Latter and they were both good! We also got their Japchae and it was delicious! Service was fast and staff were friendly. Will definitely be back to try their other specialty coffee!☕️“

“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!!“

“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 :)“

“Nice café with a lot of outdoor seating, which is perfect on a sunny day. I had the ham salami sandwich and it was really good! They also offer dog oat peanut butter cookies for $1, which is such a cute touch if you’re visiting with your pup. My dog loved it!
I ordered a doodle latte (hazelnut, vanilla, and cinnamon), but I couldn’t really taste the hazelnut or vanilla—flavor was a bit mild. Overall though, it was a good experience!“

“Huge fan of Pallet! I’m a regular and have never been disappointed. The staff are always so friendly, the food and drinks are always fresh, and the cafe is always clean. Love their coffee and “too matcha” drink. They’ve also got a build your own breakfast sandwich and it’s always a hit. So good!

There was a mistake in order today and they fixed it right away and with so much kindness. Other Vancouver businesses could learn from this level of customer service and i’ll be sharing this with my all friends.“

“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!“

“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“

“Quiet and lovely little spot to grab a drink and or snack. After having so much watered down lackluster matcha lattes in the city from popular cafe spots I was recommended, I decided to give this spot a go on my own whim. I was ecstatic to be greeted with a deep matcha flavor from the first sip. At least in comparison to other places, this latte satisfied my matcha and caffeine need for the day 🩷 Will def stop by if I'm ever in gastown again!“

“Holly molly! How is it posiible to make sandwich so tasty? Different sauce, different texture. Its special. I want to ask what is the secret of taste. If they dont want to tell the secret, i want to steal the secret...kk im kidding its amazing!!!!!“

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

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

“Nice relaxing place for coffee and pastries. It’s located in a plaza and is set back a bit from Broadway so it doesn’t get noisy like some other places right on the street. Very modern and bright interior.

Americano was good, got a blueberry scone that had good texture as not too crumbly and wasn’t overly sweet.“

“The coffee is delicious the gelato delicious too. Service there is very nice never seen that kindness ever since I came to Canada. The atmosphere very comfortable and friendly. I highly recommend this cafe to people that love coffee, gelato, and friendly atmosphere.“

“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.“
