Absolutely the best cafe atmosphere - even if you don't have kids in my opinion.

- Food is fresh and made on site with real ingredients. Yummy!
- Just started selling it, but the iced lemonade is great summer drink.
- Coffee is solid, and according to…More »

I've only done takeout, so I can't comment on eating there. We've been doing takeout from here since it opened (every couple weeks or so). Over that period, we've never had any bad fish experiences as the other reviewer noted (maybe early on, the…More »

It's a little smattering of Midwestern/Southern, Tex-Mex, and Southwestern comfort food. Gotta luv it!

I had the Tex-Mex Chili omelette with hash browns and corn cakes.

1) Service... It wasn't crowded, but service was friendly and efficient. Would be…More »

Early reviews weren't all that nice. I chalk it up to a rough start.

A bit expensive for what you get, but hey, this is Vancouver. When is anything cheap here? So suck it up.

Friendly staff and had personal service (we were the only ones there). It was…More »

Nice little sushi restaurant.

The fish was fresh and the sushi was nicely rolled. Could have been a little tighter for one of their specialties, but overall decent presentation. Although the fish was fresh and generally good, the pieces tended to be…More »

After living the Bay Area, you take for granted the great variety of choices. I've only had the Pho here, but pleasantly surprised. Relatively cheap (Pho = $6 small bowl and $7 large bowl), but they don't take credit card. Finally, a Vietnamese on…More »

Great place!

Coffee... I'm pretty boring and 99.9% of the time drink a medium roast black. They use JJ Bean coffee and I've always had a good experience with it.

Food... For the most part, I think they make their own pastries and treats. I've noticed…More »

Yes, it's a chain (with a social conscience at least), but nice location and owners.

It has a nice comfy feel to it, and I'm probably not the only one to lose track of time if I'm on my laptop.

Food is fresh and yummy! I would probably go here more,…More »

Maybe I'm just getting old with kids, but any night out with just my wife seems to be great, so my judgment could be clouded.

Food is decent and staff is very friendly. The restaurant has a modern interior with TVs strategically placed. Nothing sticks…More »

Food... OK. Nothing overly special, but good quality. They also have a beer selection, so it could be a good warm summer afternoon/evening hang.

Coffee... Usually get the medium roast and it is decent. It's usually hot and fresh. Not sure if they over…More »
