The ultimate coffee-geek experience in Vancouver. This place has a unique vibe that makes you want to explore all their brewing methods and taste all their coffees. Ordered a flat white and was surprised at how small it was. Shrinkflation is everywhere these days. It was also not as hot as I would have preferred it to be. That being said, the service was great. Though we arrived 30 minutes before closing time and sat down to enjoy our order, they didn’t make us feel rushed. We’ll be back to try something new and will definitely order more waffles!

That’s an ultimate pour over experience! There are 19 available options to have a cup of. Got a flight of 3 shared with my friend. Great coffees, distinct tastes, great serving representation. Coming back soon to try 3 other coffees! Recommended highly for filter coffee lovers.

Worth trying. Wouldn't return.Really mixed feelings about this: I understand the business reason to turn tables over, but maybe you should've been more thoughtful on how many seats you provide in the first place.A really aesthetic cafe situated in a very dodgy neighborhood. I literally walked past a fresh police scene with blood on the way here that day.Seats about 10-12 before getting full. They ask you to keep your sitting time to 1hr tops and with people waiting around, you feel pressure to leave rather than the right ambiance to enjoy your $7 special latte.I probably wouldn't return unless it's a drop by and I'm getting takeout. Takes AMEX.

There are many types of delicious coffee beans for you to explore and experience, however the shop is small so there are only very few seats.

I would only recommend this place for a serious coffee drinkers. I heard lots of good things about this coffee place, but I'm no pour over coffee drinker, so this wasn't really a place for me.I ordered blue matcha latte & honey oat latte, and blue match latte was too bland, especially the one with ice. Orange honey latte was pretty good. It was the best latte art I've seen so far though!The tables are weirdly shaped, so it's architecturally-satisfying, but instead gave up the comfort of the customers.

Cool location/interior, waffle/donut snacks, people.Caution if you're a worldly ESPRESSO shot connoisseur you may want to grab milk based instead unless you're the % for light roast long shots that lack crema.Beans are a good mouthfeel just not what I call the perfect full bodied shot.

Definitely highly recommend this lovely cafe. Great explanation with heartful welcoming. Thank you so much?
Best coffee-tasting experience in Vancouver! Their offerings are quite unique, and they brew the coffee perfectly allowing you to taste the subtleties in each brew's flavor.Also loved the warm ambiance in the shop!

A must visit for pour over lovers!!! You can order a flight of four different beans for just $10+. Extensive selection for the beans including some top tier options. The honey orange latte is also very tasty just like a dessert!Seating may be limited so you better come earlier.Will definitely come back!

The outside reminds me of a homeless shelter door. ONCE you step inside you are relieved you won't be robbed. Enjoy a gd selection of coffee and waffles. Be water my friend - Bruce Lee.
