They took my question of what drink to get based solely on a description of my mood, feelings and predfered tastes and recommended a perfect iced tea for me. Great service. Amazing owner. Working on many community building inclusive events at the space. Definitely worth supporting.

The cafe was hosting a pop-up dessert shop event that included a live dj and delectable creations inspired by Philippino flavors. For a drink, I ordered a Belgian dark chocolate mocha that rivaled any drinks I have tried at many European style coffee shops.

I went to this place with my son and a friend afternoon on 18th of March.I ordered drink, scone and cake. I carried my son and I was handed a scone, but I felt rushed by the staff at the cashier who wore a blue T-shirts. I didn’t like her attitude.Food and atmosphere were good and I sometimes come to this place but not again.

The coffee is amazing probably because it’s prepared with such care from the amazing baristas!

I tried the tiramisu latte and it didn’t have much flavour. I was expecting more but the spot is nice and cozy. I also got to try the avocado toast which was pretty delicious! Good for coffee and homework. During the summer, it gets warm and bright!

Went through to grab a quick hot beverage with my dad and a carrot cake. The ambience of the place is nice, clean and well maintained. I ordered a 12 oz Mocha with oat milk & my father got a dark roast with cream and sugar I believe, & a carrot cake to share.I want to first say the good: the carrot cake was great, not too sweet and good texture.The bad: the coffee for both our drinks were not very hot, almost like warm and the coffee tasted so off! At first I thought it my mocha because of the oat milk. And my dad complained at how bad the coffee tasted and I tried his and it didn’t taste like coffee at all. (For reference he drinks dark roasts at Starbucks so obviously will be quite a bit different) but It has this weird aftertaste that’s oddly sweet. I asked the barista what type of coffee it was and she answered Colombian so maybe we just aren’t attuned to the taste? but I’d say it was definitely without exaggeration one of the least pleasant tasting coffee I’ve had. We both couldn’t finish our drinks and just tossed it, I’d say I’d come for the baked goods and sandwhiches maybe but the drinks were not very good at all for the price.

Drinks & ambience/decor are both great! Cute little cafe to stop by if you’re in the New West area. My go-to is their iced Vietnamese latte or matcha latte sub vanilla.
I'm so glad I found this charming little sandwich/coffee spot. The girls at the front desk were very happy and polite and they started my day off on a great note. Thank you both for being such a great team! If your ever in this area I reccomend stopping in for a quick bite and some delicious coffee.

Tucked away on Front St. Hive is a cozy coffee shop. I can only comment on the Americano (good) and the walnut chocolate cookies (delicious).I'd probably give 5 stars but they don't have coffee mugs. Coffee should be served in mugs (or at least it should be an option) :-)

It’s like mediocre coffee met mediocre pastries and they put it in a nice building and charge more than other shops around. Good for one experience, but not good enough in New West to be a regular cafe spot.

Hive Cafe in New West is a standout spot with a warm ambiance and friendly staff. The Vegan Sandwich is a flavor-packed delight, showcasing the cafe's commitment to providing diverse and satisfying options. Featuring a thoughtful combination of fresh, vibrant vegetables and a delicious homemade vegan spread, the sandwich stands out for its creativity and attention to taste. The cozy atmosphere, knowledgeable staff, and prompt service make Hive Cafe a must-visit, and the Vegan Sandwich is a highlight that caters to both vegans and those seeking a flavorful, plant-based culinary experience. I look forward to returning to explore more of their offerings and enjoy the welcoming environment.
