Vancouver's best Lattes
See All Lists
1. Discovery Coffee
Best latte EVER.
I love Discovery.
The interior reminded me of the house I grew up in way up north. Old hardwood floors, skylight, with a warm and cozy feel. I bought a couple bags of their special roasts for a true coffee connoisseur. My Mom.

Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Fairview Slopes, South Granville
A perfect Latté!
Great lil place to catch up with a friend or hide with a good book. I had a chocolate pistachio cookie for my breakfast appetizer, mmmmmmmm.
3. Trees Organic Coffee
My latte was a solid four star with a lil froth on top.
Velvety and smooth... Oh wait, that was just my reflection in the mirror.
Ohhhhhhhhhh zing!
Their face sized cookies are a steal at $1.79.

4. Blue Chip Cookies
Vancouver, BC V6T 2A5
(604) 822-6999
My go-to cookie place at UBC is losing a star. Heavens, say it ain't so.
Unfortunately the last three visits yielded semi doughy cookies and bitter lattes. What the heck Blue Chip?
Your muffins are still pretty good. But come on, lets face it. We…More »

Five stars with a chunk of chocolate on top!
Blue Chip is by far the best coffee/snack place at UBC.… Read more »

Neighbourhood: Fairview Slopes
Pretty solid latte, with no complaints. Perfectly smoothe and they still managed a pretty cool design inside my travel mug.
Next time I will lounge around inside and people watch.
6. The Boulevard Coffee Roasting Co

Neighbourhood: UBC
A little under four stars for their teas and fair trade coffees. Their baked goods are over priced and not the greatest. Everytime I have caved and ordered a cookie I regret it. Undercooked and not even close to Blue Chip.
I usually end up squinting…More »
7. Uva Wine Bar
Vancouver, BC V6B 2L9
(604) 632-9560
Latte review...
Almost perfect, just a bit bitter for my liking. I really liked the laid back feel of the joint. Bartender/barista was very pleasant and made my morning a happy one. I shall return.
8. Brazza Gelato & Coffee
North Vancouver, BC V7M 2N3

Neighbourhood: Central Lonsdale
Another Brazza right in front of the new public library.
They serve up a pretty good latte and chocolate almond biscotti.
9. Caffè Artigiano
Vancouver, BC V6C 1A3

Neighbourhood: Downtown
My latte was quite bitter but rather pretty. They made up for it with the slathering of cream cheese on my multigrain bagel. The silky chocolate "crack" bar is deadly. Like Oh dear, I should not have eaten this in one go. Mmm

No line on a busy sunny Sunday afternoon?
Nice.
Served up a decent latte pour moi. A bit bitter for my delicate taste buds, but I will let this one slide as I was ecstatic to not be waiting in the other insane coffee lineups.
Cool lil spot.
I will try it…More »
11. Coo Coo Coffee
Great latte!
Refreshingly pleasant to be served in an Eco friendly cup. I like.
And yes, the yellow espresso machine is a bit of a HELLO.
I am coo coo for Coo Coo!

Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Yaletown
Just like a few of my undergrad classes, this 5 star review of Buzz Cafe was a no-brainer.
I don't know how they do it, but as soon as you walk in it feels like you are visiting a friend in their cozy home. A warm smile greets you every time.

Five satiny smooth stars for their perfect lattes!
I've had a couple in the past month when I was emptying my wallet next door at the Gourmet Warehouse.
Definitely the best I've had since Discovery Coffee in Victoria.
