This time I went in and first thing I noticed was the girl behind the counter and her big smile.  It was a nice way to start my Saturday morning...an idyllic little coffee shop, a warm helpful smile and a perfect cup of coffee. Got beans to go too…More »

    Arbutus Coffee is a sweet little place on a not so busy street.  Great to wander in and grab a cup… Read more »

Mo's is a charming little place - worth a stop in for a coffee, chai or london fog - feels like you're chillin at grandma's. There are desserts or crepes to suit your fancy too.  I had a triple egg, avocado crepe with side salad for breakfast one day…More »

I grabbed a bag of beans from Phoscao last week and will def go back for more.  Delish - no sugar needed - dark roast.  Next time I'll be sure to stay awhile and enjoy this charming little cafe.

Browsing for wireless in Kits led me to Take 5.  It was the nicest of the cafes with wireless I passed.   Big outlets on the wall beckoned by big brown leather chairs but there are some sweet high-seat spots at the window too.   The huge cuppa coffee…More »

  Update - 6/9/2010

Went during the week for a bite at about 9:30am.  Despite being only one of two tables at the place I felt downright ignored.  I told our server there would be two of us and it took her 20 minutes to bring a second menu. We had little time left to…More »

Even if it's grey outside this cafe is full of light, a perfect respite for a cup of morning java.  I'm a fan of dark blends and this one didn't impress too much, nor did their bagel with microwaved egg for $7.50 but i'd gladly suck it up for a spot…More »

Lots of tasty options here for a quick bite or a sit down.  Place is hidden in an odd office complex but worth looking for if you want a breakfast treat.  Decor could use some updating.

Love how lively and colourful the market is.  It relaxes and excites me, looking for rare treats, like sea asparagus, granville island teas, salts, smoked salmon pieces, BC mushrooms and more.

Love cruising by and checking out all the fresh fruit and vegg.   Inside it's got just as much flava.  Soooo glad to have a fruit market nearby - This part of Kits really needed one - they've got so much more too.  Nice fresh fish and some great…More »

I was excited to find 49th Parallel in my new Kitsilano hood after picking up a pound of their Yirgacheffe at Crema in Toronto's Junction.  It was pretty damn delish.  I was a bit saddened to find they'd raised their prices, now offering mostly 12oz…More »

I don't know what all the fuss is about either.  I mean it's fine. The place is kinda kitschy cool but all the crap just makes me think it needs to be dusted; not great for a greasy resto.  Servings are generous with food piled high and kinda slopped…More »

I kinda dig Capers.  It's got loads of fresh produce, a great salad bar for take-out or eat-in and a terrific bulk grains section (I couldn't find quinoa anywhere else).  Best deal was the fair-trade and organic coffee.  Prices were about $11/pound.…More »

It's kind of ironic that these guys serve up a weak cup of java when they call themselves Jitters.  I like the place, nice leather couch, natural sunlight, cool tunes and free wifi but I can't forgive a place that calls itself a coffee shop and makes…More »
