Lovely bakery and cafe. Food was so good we came back a second time! Particularly the grilled cheese sandwich was awesome. The area in which it’s located is a bit strange though, but unfortunately there is not much that the Nelson team can do about it.
Once inside, you’ll be greeted by the lovely smell of fresh bread!

Anyone who knows anything about quality bread knows that this bakery makes the best sourdough loaves in the city. It's not even a close thing. My quality of life would be degraded significantly without my weeklu olive and rosemary loaf from this bakery. I don't know about their coffee or pastries - I've never tried them - but the bread is of an international standard.

Just in case, the handsome one who asked me out for coffee reads this:
You asked me out for coffee one week ago & in a moment of absent-mindedness I just mentioned that I'm leaving tomorrow. I probably won’t be back anytime soon- but maybe you'll find yourself in Europe one day…or I’ll find my way back. Would be happy to hear from you!

We were lucky to get them just out of the oven, amazing taste and a even better coffee

The good: Adorable old factory turned bread shop cafe. Mishmashes antique tables and chairs. Nice Gastown street view. People work and chatting quietly. To be improved: they seemed short handed.

Lots of great coffee shops in Vancouver but if you’re looking for something a little less polished but a lot more authentic then come to Nelson’s. I would go out of my way to come here and I’ll definitely visit again.

I randomly selected this place to buy a cookie from; it was very mediocre; just like buying a Tim Horton's cookie and paying double!
What a GEM. The vibe is cozy, comfy, and chilled. Espresso was tasty, and you can just tell that they know their shit when it comes to bread. Sadly didn’t get any, but man oh man was that sourdough ever-tempting!

Cute café/brunch spot serving delicious avocado toasts. The sourdough is buttery, crunchy and very aromatic – a carb-lover’s dream :) There aren’t too many inside seating options, so be prepared for a short wait. The food is all the more reason to visit :) The atmosphere is nice, filled with the smell of freshly baked bread, brunch dishes and brewed coffee.
