the chocolate, coffee, people who work there! Shelley ❤
Coffee is great and the staff are the best. Their chocolate is way too slept on.
Respectfully begging you to bake more cookies. Waiting all day for my break just to be told they’re gone is truly devastating, especially when these are the best cookies downtown. I want everyone to experience them, but if you keep selling out this fast, I may be forced into gatekeeping. Please help us ❤️
East Van Roasters is a charming cafe in downtown Vancouver that offers a variety of decadent chocolate drinks and chocolates. The interior is cozy and welcoming, with warm pendant lights and a peaceful atmosphere. The cafe roasts its own coffee beans in-house and offers gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan options. The staff is friendly, and the quality of the tea leaves is good. The atmosphere is delightful, with a beautiful tray and hourglass serving the tea. The chocolatier's creations are expertly paired, and the candied hazelnuts are a highlight.
The coffee is made with love, and the oat latte has a perfect texture. The espresso, including the decaf, has a very nice taste. The prices are great, and the staff is friendly. The cafe also provides free period products in the restrooms, which is a thoughtful gesture.
The cacao and coffee are ethically sourced, and the baristas provide recommendations based on customers' taste preferences. The hot chocolate is described as taking one to a magical land, and the single-origin hot chocolate is rich but not heavy or too sweet.
While there's room for improvement in terms of dairy-free options and parking, East Van Roasters is a must-visit for chocolate lovers in downtown Vancouver.
