In spending 3-4 days in Vancouver I stumbled upon this gem
On asking for a triple shot espresso, was informed it was the same price for a quad shot, so that was good..
I was offered two choices of coffee bean
If not asked make sure you ask, otherwise they may default to their standard bean variety
Because of the quality (you can’t hide with over extracted in an espresso) I went back when in the area a couple of days later, both occasions the coffee baristas produced lovely coffees with no bitterness
I recommend the coffee shop, an oasis located amongst the Starbucks ..

Great little café, good coffee

I stopped here twice for coffee and the breakfast sandwich. Loved the pickled onions on it! Must try. Staff were super friendly and recommended a delicious blueberry oat muffin.

I visited Elysian Coffee on Burrard around 12:30 PM on July 21. I needed to use the washroom, so I politely asked a staff member (a woman with her hair tied back and black-rimmed glasses) for the code. She frowned and said, “One second,” in an unfriendly tone. When she finally gave me the code, she spoke in a rude and aggressive way, pointing her finger and telling me to wait somewhere else because someone was inside.

There was no need for that kind of attitude, especially in front of other customers. I waited at my table for 20 minutes, and no one came out. When I knocked and entered, the washroom was completely empty.

I usually love Elysian — the Mount Pleasant location, in particular, has kind and professional staff who make every visit enjoyable. Sadly, this Burrard visit left a very bad impression. Customer service really matters, and this experience was far below the standard I expected.

Loved the vibes, the coffee and the service!

Tried the iced banana chocolate latte and chocolate croissant and both were delicious! Love the interior space. The servers are super nice. Lovely outdoor space facing the road.

Convenient spot!

We ordered some of their baked goods, which they warmed up for us, but the inside was quite cold - probably not warmed sufficiently? It was okay though, overall.

Very bitter and burnt coffee. Couldn't finish, threw away.
