Quiet place, with great coffee and food options, moderately priced. Just be prepared to take a little time to enjoy, as the service is not terribly fast. 5 Stars!

The Breakfast Sandwiches are nothing but perfect! I'm sad that I didn't had the time to try the Mains.

What a nice little café! Food was excellent. Homemade and perfect. A must visit for any Coffee lover, there is someone there who is a coffee artist! Takes pride in the coffee made. All coffee lovers must stop here.

I hadn't been to this restaurant in years, but am I ever glad I decided to give it shot. Everything is great! .... staff, food, prices, atmosphere 👌. One of my new favorite spots in the neighborhood.

Today was a one man show operation. Bravo! Everything in the everything bowl was al dente. Perfection. Broth? Tasted wholesome, not riddled with MSG to achieve flavour. Tasted healthy! How refreshing ☺️ I was blown away.
The chalkboard signage on the wall from The previous business is such a tease! We were sad when we realized they didn’t offer these items 🤪 maybe rechalk the signs!
Thanks so much will be back

Oriole Café is an absolute gem. Every dish here is crafted with a kind of zen-like concentration that you can taste. The attention to detail is just fantastic—from the presentation to the balance of flavors, everything feels intentional and artful. It’s rare to find a place where such calm precision and passion meet on a plate. Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates food made with care and soul.

Beef noodles soup is really good! Owner is very friendly. Fairly priced. Definitely a hidden gem

Definitely a hidden gem in marpole area! Becomes my must-go favourite coffee shop after the first few visits- the food is always excellent, coffee and tea are great, and the boss is super chill too. A cool place for a relaxing morning or a rainy afternoon.

Very nice food, nice environment, and the nicest restaurant owner!
Checked this place out on a whim for lunch, place was packed out. I tried to order the beef soup but their beef ran out which to me is a great sign. Staff was very warm and friendly and helped me decide on the wonton soup. The soup was so good. The broth was slightly milky and had a hint of sesame oil. The wontons were incredible, probably the best wontons I’ve ever had. It was packed with pork, shrimp and mushrooms. They were also very generous with the portions. Also this is probably one of the best value spots with their pricing! I will come back to try the beef soup and the wontons in chili oil. They don’t have a parking lot, it is just 1 hour free street parking but it can get quite busy.
UPDATE: Just tried the everything bowl with beef shank and wontons with noodles, a fried egg and baby bokchoy. Hands down the best soup I’ve tried. The broth is perfectly seasoned, not too salty, the egg yolk adds richness, and the garnishes adds a hint of bitterness and finished with a light touch of spicy chili oil for slight heat. The beef is unctuous and loaded with flavor, extremely tender. Wontons are super fresh and perfectly cooked with loads of flavor. The noodles taste fresh, very bouncy and perfectly sized. Portion is very large. 100% would order this every time.

The shop owner is a wonderful and exceptional human being. He's very attentive to his customers state, and ensures impeccable hospitality that's both wholesome and unforgettable. As of this typing, he just ensured a customer has a strong structural take out configuration because he knew she was going to take the bus home today -- how sweet. This cafe feels like a neighbourhood cafe where all the customers are from some sunny glowy tv show where everyone has such fascinating lives: grandmas chit chatting with teens, telling their tales, to couples enjoying their date together. Not to mention, somehow my Spotify playlist was hacked, because the owner's playlist as identical to mine. Non stop grooving, hell yeah! And lastly, his story of why he opened his cafe was heartwarming.
Keep on rocking, Devin ;) All the best, Tommy

Stayed near the airport and stumbled upon this gem of a cafe. Super friendly staff! Ordered a sandwich, wonton soup, a Vietnamese iced coffee, and Taiwanese oolong tea. Hands down the most reasonable pricing and delicious Asian cafe I’ve tried! Sadly, had to rush to the airport and scarf it down, but I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Vancouver
