What to do in Vancouver on a rainy day grab coffee and enjoy it at cozy place.Matchstick on Fraser is perfect spot to enjoy a rainy day. The atmosphere is so good. Matchstick has a vibe♥️
First visit to this Trees location, but I’ve been to many of the other locations. The space is clean and comfortable - it’s moderately-sized for downtown and wasn’t crowded around noon on a weekday while I was there. The barista was friendly. I had a veggie breakfast wrap, a slice of strawberry cheesecake (January special), and a cup of Chinese sencha. The breakfast wrap is your standard scrambled eggs wrap with a Southwest touch of black beans and peppers, with a side of spicy salsa. It was good. The strawberry cheesecake had a strong natural strawberry flavour. The texture was nice and light, this one was a bit more mousse-like than most of their cheesecakes. They use high quality tea leaves. My good impression here is consistent with the experiences I’ve had at other locations. Their food is standard cafe fare but notable for being fresh and filling. The cheesecake slices are a good size, not too dense, and all of the flavours I’ve tried so far (which is most of them) are memorable.
Great little coffee shop, the staff are very friendly. It can get a bit busy at times if you plan to chill there.
This is a super cozy cafe with great coffee! There is lots of space in the front but also a large back room with seating. The decor is warm and interesting with motorcycle memorabilia and dark green walls. Make sure to visit when on Main Street.
Today was my first time is this cozy coffee and I’m so glad that I went there even in this rainy day. The atmosphere is amazing, Jazz playing in the air and the attendant made me feel so welcoming and comfortable. I ordered a coffee and stayed there studying for a while… Before I go home I got a Focaccia bread and the attendant give me a small treat… It was so kind. I’m sure I’m gonna go there more often. I strongly recommend this coffee to anyone who wants to feel hugged and with your heart warmth.
I like this café. Reminds me of the old sbux stores, brings back good memories :)
I love this place so much. I always order croissants in the morning when I have time. I’m from France and they are the best croissants I’ve tried in Vancouver. I’m so lucky to be working right next to this cafe! The two persons working there are really really nice. Please never stop making croissants 🥹❤️
The best service we have ever received at a coffee shop! The owner is charming and super hospitable. On top of that the coffee and fresh croissants were amazing all at an amazing price. Could not recommend more!
When I was travelling to van I needed somewhere to sit and talk! Coffee was pretty good, the breakfast sandwich was also good not amazing but good. I also had a desert with it. The bill just about $40 is that normal cause that’s insane?
This is a lovely neighborhood café and exactly what you want when you're not looking for one of the large chain coffee shops.
While the cofee shop is quite narrow, it still accommodates several tables, in a cozy and trendy decor.
I believe it was operated by the owner, who seemed to ensure that every single coffee he made was carefully made with love and attention.
We were looking for a little coffee shop to have a casual business meeting in the area and this is definitely a place I'd recommend.

Matchstick Fraser Street in Vancouver has garnered positive reviews from its patrons, making it a well-regarded destination in the area. Customers appreciate the welcoming and relaxing atmosphere of the café, which is enhanced by a friendly and accommodating staff. This environment seems particularly appealing for those looking to enjoy a calm and peaceful setting, and it even offers some entertainment for kids with toys and books.
I wish I walked a little further to one of the several superior cafes nearby
this cafe is so cozy, i love the back room and the baristas are so friendly. perfect spot for a rainy day, i love coming here with my girlfriend!
however this location gets taken over by students who sit there all night, it’s rare that we can find a spot to sit together comfortably. wish there was a 2 hour time limit during peak hours so that we could all enjoy this amazing space

The last batch of cheesecake (Dec 31st 2023) unfortunately had a very gummy texture with less cream cheese flavor. This was consistent between all three different flavours we bought. We have been getting slices for the past 2 years and haven't experienced anything like this. I hope that it was just a quality control issue and not skimpflation considering the price for each slice is considerable.
Friendly, kind service. Will be back again!
Trees, a chain of coffee shops found in multiple locations, unfortunately, offers coffee that is subpar and somewhat pricey. However, the food, particularly the cheesecake, is quite tasty. The atmosphere is calm, making it an ideal spot for work. I would only recommend Trees for its cakes, as the other offerings are somewhat disappointing.
Latte art is really good ♡
My new favourite café. I love the coffee here, I have never had a more full bodied espresso, never bitter or sour. I haven't tried all the food, but there is a great selection, something for everyone. The service is great, they take pride in what they do. Music is a bit loud for me, no one should have to raise their voice to have a normal conversation.
Service and food is exceptional! One of my favorite coffee shops in Vancouver and all of their baked goods are delicious. Love the hours - makes it easy to stop in before going to work!
Barista completely panicked at my request to split a double shot espresso into two single shots, adding hot water to one of them, and refused to serve me. Very disappointing, this has been my standard order in dozens of coffee shops.
Great espresso machine repair service, try their coffee blends to bring home. (their panini + cannoli are my personal favourites)
Best study place nearby! Affordable food and everyone is reading/working in side. When I don’t want to work in my school’s library I just visit here:)
I got the iced matcha latte which turned out to be pretty milky. However, I also got the full breakfast which was filling and delicious. The service rating is pretty low because they took a while to get to me and they also completely forgot about my order & I had to go up to them for them to make it for me. Regarding the environment, it is cozy and good for work. They have a lit up space towards the front and a back work station as well. Also free wifi, which I appreciated!
Affogato flights were a rare delight!
We drove from downtown Vancouver just to experience this special treat and it was worth it. We were expecting there to be various coffee flavours to choose from for the flights, but in fact espresso (pictured) was only one flavour option, including London fog (pictured) matcha, ginger (pictured), lemon, mocha, and others to choose from for your affogato flavours. I suppose it means they aren’t true affogato but the variety of options made for a fun dessert.
I’d definitely recommend the affogato flight as a fun experience for a date. There is also the option to switch to alcoholic beverages thereafter if you’re having a good time.
Unfortunately, no gluten free food options apart from the ice cream in the flights.

The Missus and I like to support the local businesses. We came across Knight Street Cafe for breakfast and I returned for lunch with Mum, sister and the Little Son.
The cafe is a cosy little diner with friendly and quick serving staff. You can't go wrong with the all day breakfast. The salmon and chicken burgers were also very tasty. This diner is good value for your dollar.

I’m not sure why anyone would give this place less than five stars specially for food and coffee. I was looking for a coffee alternative to my go to and boom! It became my go to. Brilliant coffee!
Then I decided to try things. Roast beef sandwich. Ufffffffff!!!!! Gourmet! 😍 then the caramel crufffin!!! Another ufffff ❤️
What I love about the place is the quality of the ingredients and coffee bean.
A hidden gem. My new go to.
Also staff are great 😊 they remember you 😊

I genuinely love the menu items at this place, and the items are pretty reasonably priced for the area. It's a nice cafe to stop by if you have an hour or two to kill, but they have GOT to get better about staffing their front counter. They only ever have one person taking and preparing orders, and as soon as they take an order, they prepare it from start to finish without acknowledging any new customers. If I come in for a quick grab and go muffin or pastry on my way to work, and I see ANYONE else in line or being served, I usually leave immediately, because I know it will guaranteed be at least 10 minutes before someone even says hello, or so much as "sorry, it'll be a few". A few times I have chanced it when someone else was waiting for their food/beverage and I've had more than 15min to spare to wait, and a good 80% of those times I've had to leave without ordering, so as not to be late. I would legitimately rather order food or coffee from Bean than any other coffee shop or bakery in the area other than maybe Thierry, but for now the only alternative that makes sense is either Mira's or Cobb's for a quick pastry.
I used to love Trees, and it is still a good place to get some work done as it’s usually quiet, but some small changes they are making are just not it. They don’t have soup or salad anymore which really were the things that made it a good lunch spot. This location often has no music playing and then the other day there was music with Spotify playing but with advertisements… Their cheesecake remains awesome
Excellent service. I would trust them again to repair my espresso machine in the future
Had a really good lunch here! I got the caponata panini, a brownie gelato sandwich, and a cup of rooibos tea. The sandwiches are premade and sit in a case until they’re grilled, but nonetheless the focaccia was fresh and the filling of roasted veggies and cheese was great. The gelato sandwich was good - raspberry gelato between two slices of brownie. Hard to make a judgment about the quality of the gelato itself based on the brick of it in the sandwich, but it totally did the job for a sandwich and the raspberry flavour seemed natural, not overly sweet, and the brownie was nice and moist. Decent tea, nothing out of the ordinary there. My total was about $25, about average value for downtown.
The place is located under a hotel and it doesn’t have a lot of character, but it’s spacious and quiet, and the counter chairs were super comfortable, so for my taste it’s a nice relaxing spot even if it is generic. The staff were all polite.

We came here by chance and had the best muffins we’ve ever had. We ordered the zucchini chocolate and the cinnamon apple ones. They were to die for! The coffee was also really good, will be coming back!
I recently enjoyed a delightful breakfast at 7 Days Coffee, and it was an experience worth sharing. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly and attentive server who set the tone for a wonderful visit.
I started my morning with a simple yet satisfying ham sandwich and an almond croissant. The freshness and quality of the ingredients were evident in every bite. The croissant, in particular, was a flaky and indulgent treat that paired perfectly with my coffee.
Speaking of coffee, their brew was exceptional. It had a rich, robust flavor that provided the perfect kickstart to my day. It’s clear that the folks at 7 Days Coffee take their coffee seriously, and it showed in the quality of what they served.
What truly stood out, though, was the exceptional service. The server went above and beyond to ensure that my meal was enjoyable. They had a positive attitude and were genuinely helpful, making the dining experience all the more pleasant.
7 Days Coffee is more than just a place to grab a quick bite and caffeine fix. It’s a place where you can count on a warm welcome, top-notch coffee, and delicious pastries. I left with a smile on my face, knowing that I’ll be returning for more of their fantastic offerings.
If you’re looking for a cozy spot with great food, friendly service, and fantastic coffee, I highly recommend giving 7 Days Coffee a visit. I certainly plan to return soon!

This is my number 1 coffee shop to go in the area! The staff is lovely and make me feel so comfortable. The atmosphere is relaxing and they even have some toys and books to entertain my kids.
I buy their coffee regularly to make at home but still choose to come here just to get out of the house and be in a calm and peaceful environment.

I love this place. The owner is super friendly and often working in the shop. His space generates a very organic community feeling and you will find rotating art from local artists every month, plus treats made by another small business in the store.
I live in North Vancouver and I often make the trip here just because I like hanging out to work, have a chat with a new person, and eat a super delicious and inexpensive breakfast sandwich.
Plus the coffee is good. Which I guess is important if I’m reviewing a coffee shop.
A real gem in the community. Definitely a space that welcomes customers to stick around and enjoy, which is sorely needed in this city.

Pretty good breakfast place, the bacon is good and the pancakes really fluffy. Unfortunately they had an issue with the payment terminal but that was outside their control and they solved it adequately.
Great quality food! Tried the veggie omelet, and it was super! Recommended 👌
Prices were very reasonable given, no absurd brunch line up. Food and service was quick and friendly. We had Bennies which were good and the hash browns felt like home cooking.
Gregory and Trevor assisted me today, great customer service amazing beverage. Awesome location will be back.
I had breakfast at this coffee bar that sells both coffee and alcohol, perfectly embodying the concept of 'AM coffee PM wine.' The coffee bar is adorned with motorcycle decorations and photographs. I presume the owner is a motorcycle enthusiast. The atmosphere was great, and they provide WiFi. There are customers here who chat, read, and go online. I had a wonderful experience here and may bring my computer to work here next time.
Nice place to have a quick breakfast, especially if you are european/italian: the coffee is quite good and also the pastries taste fine.
The service is good when you are ordering and paying, less the one providing you the beverage: not talking, not providing you something to take away (even if you asked it during the order).
The place is quite and never too crowd in the morning.

A delight to have this diner in the neighborhood. Breakfast and burgers are a staple in this part of the world! Affordable, speedy and tasty. I think we can all support small business and enjoy a few fries along the way!
I understand why they got 4.5+ service now. This is not those fancy branded ones, but the atmosphere is relaxing and feel like home. Service is superb (I asked for extra hot mocha. The server wants to avoid spilling and take the time to bring over to my table). No pressure to get anything beyond what you need. No pressure for tips. Every customer is tipping out of genuinely feel happy about the service, not because Is pre-set tips machine. Will definitely come again.
Today I walked in to get a usual cup of coffee that I order on the regular from this specific Starbucks.
I asked a worker by the name of TYLER if I could have a green apron pour over. He went on with attitude saying he hates doing them because I MAKE HIM WASTE COFFEE. He then went to scan the entire bag of coffee saying that I could buy the bag of coffee or he could make me a different pour over. The way he approached the situation was very rude, and he was speaking to me with the utmost disrespect. I can understand that maybe this type of coffee isn’t popular for a pour over, but the option to have one made for me is there to be asked of. At first he tried to make me buy a whole bag of coffee, and then put some kind of blame on me for how I make him waste the bag of coffee.
He was completely disrespectful and rude towards me about the situation and I am very upset with this type of customer service because I’ve never had this particular issue with ANY Starbucks I have EVER gone too.
I will not be returning to this location if this employee is working. This is not the first time I have experience entitlement and very poor customer service from this employee.

The focaccia and ciabatta sandwiches are amazing! The espresso was slightly bitter.
Trees is a chain coffee shop, which you can find it in various locations. The coffee is not good and a bit expensive. The food is delicious, like the cheesecake. The place is quiet making it a good place to work. Trees I only recommend it to eat cakes, since the rest leaves much to be desired.
It’s like super good coffee paired with super nice vibe! Love the ultra soft sofa! I can stay here for the whole day. Staff is nice too.
Ordered a latte and when I got home, I realized they made me a cappuccino. I don't like paying for air.
Always a great cup of coffee. All the food and pastry comes out of a package now but it is much better quality than other shops. Not like it used to be when they had pastry and food delivered fresh daily.
This place has decent coffee and for a good price they do charge $0.25 for a take out cup but regardless a latte is still about $4.90 and the quality of the coffee is fantastic.
They also make their own fresh croissants which are $2 the cheapest croissants I have had and one of the freshest ones not so fluffy but definitely delicious

I'm always happy to get a fancy beverage, and their cottontail drink was lovely (a milk drink with fruit syrups and whipped cream). The two cheesecake slices we also bought were fantastic and very quickly devoured (about 8$ for each slice).
When we went, late afternoon on a weekday, there was plenty of seating and the cafe itself was cozy and nicely decorated. If I were in the area longer, I would definitely go back!

So glad we stumbled into this coffee bar! Nice ambience with jazz music and delicious beverages. They also have a room in the back that looks cozy and like a good spot for hangouts. The bathroom is clean and gender-neutral
Foglifter coffee is a cafeteria that I loved, since the coffee and the food are very tasty. The place is very cozy and the workers are charming. I highly recommend it.
I have been a regular customer at Blenz coffee shop for over 5 years now. I usually stop there on may way to work depending on which shift I am on, as I am a healthcare worker. The staff at the location on Main St. have always been lovely, accommodating and very helpful to me over the years. I am also a BCAA member and have enjoyed the added perk of upsizing my drink at no cost. On June 29/2023 I stopped at Blenz for my coffee. There was a different lady at the counter whom I had never seen before. I asked her if there was the other usual staff member working as we had discussed a certain green tea coffee she was going to make for me to try that morning. The lady informed me she was “ THE OWNER”. Then continued to ask me what I wanted. I explained my drink, she attempted to understand and charge me an absurd amount. However I paid, and knowing I was a BCAA member at l least it would offset the cost a little. While I was waiting for my drink, and after I had paid, THE OWNER asked me for proof of my BCAA card. I explained to her that I didn’t have it on me as I was on my way to work at the hospital and didn’t carry cards with me, and I have been a regular customer for 5 years! She proceeded to tell me she would not honor my membership as she didn’t know me! I the told her to refund my money and that I would not be coming back.
She happily obliged. Its unfortunate that THE OWNER of Blenz would be so petty over a couple of dollars. Not only has she lost business from a good genuine person but my coworkers will now visit the many other coffee shops around other than Blenz. Remember everyone BE KIND!
Regards, very unhappy customer

Great coffee, great ambiance. Lots of spots for studying and talking. Love the room in the back! They also serve alcohol as there’s a bar. Outlets available at most tables.
This is the fourth BATW I have visited and it is remarkable how consistent the vibe is between all of them. They always have that warm, lived-in atmosphere and feel like a community centre as much as a coffee shop. Each location has a unique menu but the style of food is similar and meets the same standard. As with the other locations I’ve visited, the food (light stuff like sandwiches and baked goods) and drinks (coffee/tea and house-brewed soda) here are awesome. The muffins feel very wholesome. It’s cool that this location has protein smoothies - I tried the peach pear variety and it was delicious! Another notable thing about the Main St location is that in addition to the usual desserts like cookies and carrot cake, they have a ton of French-style tarts and cakes.
I entered here just to make time and I discover a really cool place.
The hot chocolate was delicious, warm and so pretty.
The bread was freshly baked and crunchy a bit sweet if you’re not used to eating a lot of sugar. But there are other options for you to choose.
The staff is really nice and friendly.

This charming local eatery truly stands out with its exceptional service and delectable food. The portion sizes of their meals are impressively generous, and what surprised me even more was their offering of fresh juices! The freshly juiced oranges have a delightfully creamy flavor that is likely a result of the process, making it impossible to replicate in bottled juices.
Friendly service - great muffins, pastries and beverages - all for a fairly low price. Warm rustic interiors - fun for chilling with someone. :)
Lovely vibe with a nice interior design. Spacious and have a couple of window seats and outdoor seats. Loved their pour over. Parking just outside the door but easily get full so need some luck.
My second home! I’ve been coming here for a couple of years and it is my favourite coffee shop. Great atmosphere, delicious coffee and food and very friendly staff. Love it!!
Yum! Digital remotely working people are welcomed here, with good Wifi (no time limit, unlike some café who will give you an hour only)
I spent half of my day today here, ordering 3 different things, and be that food or coffee, i really enjoyed everything!
Plenty of vegetarian/vegan options, thank you ❤️
All the baked goods are SO tempting!
I will come back, great ambiance, friendly service and good products.

Less busy coffee shop with chill vibes and excellent coffee.
Lot less traffic here than the other coffee spots around the area. There's a decent amount of seats and I was able to sit and get some work done for a good hour.
Coffee was excellent as well, their espresso blend is subtle and smooth, with a hint of honey. Very impressed with the shot that was pulled.
Would definitely recommend stopping by here!

Small, busy coffee shop with quick service and decent coffee.
Location is kind of small so it'll be tough to find a seat. Lots of traffic as well. They make their drinks fairly quickly though. I got an Ethiopian espresso and only waited a couple minutes even though there were several people ahead of me.
On the coffee: a bit of a letdown. I think the roast may have removed some of the more subtle flavours. The coffee tasted kind of mute, with a hint of cherry and sourness. A decent shot, but could've been better.
Overall, the vibe is still great and I'd come for a quick grab-n-go.

I’ve been coming here often to study and work, and I absolutely love it. It gets busy and it can be hard to find an ideal spot for working, but there’s usually somewhere to sit with amole outlets regardless, and people flow in and out so spots open up regularly. The customer service is great, and the atmosphere and music is very nice. The whole coffee shop is usually very warm and cosy (which I like), but can get a little cold at times when they prop the door open, so I prefer to work in the back area when that happens if I can. They have some good light snacks and meals. The large table in the dining room is a great shared space. The smaller ones are a bit short since I like to cross my leg other the other when sitting and can’t do that there. People typically don’t mind sharing their table either if they are sitting alone or there are seats available. Overall would recommend!
I like Trees (a little too much) and I go to the one on Granville street a lot because it’s close to where I live. Trees on Davie Street is another one of those coffee shops that I "usually" walk by all the time but rarely stop. However, when I do stop here it’s a good experience.
Trees Organic on Davie Street has a very Davie Street vibe. I can’t really describe it exactly, but it’s kind of a vintage vibe. Like I was having coffee in someone’s kitchen. The focus seems to be on people, rather than interior design. Which is a bold marketing decision. My pictures don't really do it justice. But if you come here you'll feel what I mean.
The staff are super friendly, so that really helps to set the tone. I like coming here because I know what to expect. In a world that is getting weirder by the day, it’s nice to have a place to go where you can feel safe and relaxed.
Wifi is good. It’s not a big coffee shop but the seating is comfy, practical, and solid. There are big bright windows up front that afford a good view of Davie Street, if you like to people watch. Wifi is good, coffee is good, and like all Trees Organic Coffee Shops the chocolate croissants and the ham & cheese croissants, are also good. I’ve never tried the wide selection of cheese cakes which they are well known for. But they seem quite popular.

I go to this Belnz on a regular basis. My favourite thing on the menu is the Dark Chocolate Mocha however their PB banana Protein shake is amazing! Well kept, friendly and great location.
Coffee is good. The pastries looked good. The reason for one less star is due to the card machine is set to French. I didn’t know which button to choose for no tip. Essentially, I was forced to tip. Maybe this is my motivation to learn French. Time to reinstall the Memrise app. It will probably be cheaper in the long run if other ships follow this trend.
Relatively new coffee shop (estd. 2021) at the corner of Main and 20th. It used to be a Bean Around the World a while back.
Nice and roomy, lots of traffic on Sunday afternoon when I visited. Being a roaster, I had assumed they served a pourover but I was wrong, they only had drip coffee. A very good selection of pastries and cookies. Banana Chocolate Walnut muffin was slighly dry but yummy! The filling of rhubarb strawberry coffee cake was good as well.
Also, they sold many brewing equipments, which was a plus for me.
No high-chairs but enough room for strollers to maneuver and park around the table.
Nice and roomy, lots of traffic on Sunday afternoon when I visited. Being a roaster, I had assumed they served a pourover but I was wrong, they only had drip coffee.

The coffee and pastry were quite good. The place has a decent amount of seating and some TVs..They also serve other foods and ice cream.
So sad, no more enjoying sitting outside, it's really cold and snowy!!! Be careful winter is coming)))
Knight Street Cafe is a family run, all day breakfast spot. No frills, neighbourhood spot.
Busy on a late Saturday morning with a continuous stream of people coming in.
- Coffee ($3.00) - came by several times to refill our cups. However, their coffee is light. Better off grabbing a cup of joe from Pallet.
- Knight burger ($13.95) - soup of the day (chicken noodle) had good flavour. The burger (7oz) was massive. Beef had a nice char but was still tender. Wish they toasted the bun.
- Corned beef hash ($17.95) - corned beef was juicy and decent amount of vegetables. Hash browns could have been crispier.
- 2x Knight St. special ($12.95) - sausage had a good bite, reminded me Hungarian style.
- Butter tarts - complimentary butter tarts. My favourite part of our visit.
Decent portions at KSC.

Stunning coffee, even better pastries.
We stopped by more a morning pastry and coffee and it was an absolutely stunning start to the day.
The cinnamon roll was absolutely phenomenal and wonderfully sticky.
We will be back before our vacation ends.

We decided to have the BEST ice cream in Vancouver for dinner in waffle bowls n all 🤣😂... 3 scoops each 😱🤣😂.
They kept asking if we were sure because 3 scoops couldn't fit in the waffle bowls 🤣 We loved the flavours we tried so much we decided to EMBRACE it's joyfulness. 🤣😂.
And I chased it down with a Leak & chives pastry that was sooo yummy... Here are some picks from @BEYOND Cafe @ The Hotel on Burrard by the Hospital.
They have a delicious and amazing selection of goodies mixed with some yummy doctors & nurses too 😘😍🙏😉🤷

This Starbucks coffee joint was one of the many awesomely consistent experiences I have with this chain. A great rewards scheme, happy, friendly and talented staff with a nice vibe serving a tasty cup of Joe.
It's a good option for studying, quiet and clean. Coffee was good. Some of the tables are not stabled (rocking) so we couldn't use them for reading or working with computer. Staff are nice
I stopped by this little neighborhood cafe last week at lunchtime, and enjoyed a tasty ham panini on their sidewalk terrace, sitting under a parasol watching passersby. The atmosphere is very friendly and relaxed, and the owner made me feel like a regular even though it was my first visit. A really nice place! Be sure to check it out.
Love this cozy yet airy cafe! Firs the staff are amazing, and the space itself is so inviting and also has individual stations for you to work remotely while you enjoy your java and treats. The seasonal lattes are just bomb and have me coming back for more. Nothing more to say other than this, it is a lovely cafe!
It's a cute tiny shop with holiday vibes. The barista was kind and the atmosphere is very heart warming. Small drinks might be overpriced for the size (just like a regular coffee shop), I didn't order the food but I can see the effort made into it, and from afar looked pretty good. I can see all the organic conversations that come from this atmosphere. Don't do a study date here, but bring someone to converse for sure! The atmosphere will match a good conversation.
Excellent customer service, great ambience to stay productive, and affordable meals. A nice little spot on Fleury to work remotely and enjoy a selection of quality beverages.
I usually come to this Starbucks after shopping at T&T and it’s always been alright, but today the staff had terrible attitude and left quite a bad impression. I was looking for cream for my cold brew and saw three bottles of milk. Several others were also looking for the cream, so I told the lady who made my coffee. A few moments later, a staff carrying a bottle of cream came. I happily expressed my excitement that cream had finally arrived, but the staff looked at me rudely and said “I need to fill them up, right?” and rudely headed off. It was early in the morning so I didn’t expect her to react in such a defensive way. The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth.
I have stopped by at Beyond Coffee a few times, and have always observed that it’s a pretty quiet spot. It’s also quite spacious, so it would be great for a quick meeting or private conversation in a public place.
The coffee is decent, food is pre-made and nothing special, and the service is usually decent. Wouldn’t recommend for the food/coffee, but definitely for the location.

This cafe made some pretty decent coffee. The cappuccino had good body and it was topped with nice froth and chocolate sprinkles.
Food wise, there were some sweet and savoury options. I tried the baked cheesecake, which was quite a large slice - more than I needed, but overall a well made cheesecake.
There was plenty of seating available inside this cafe around lunchtime on a weekend, including stool seating up the front where you can leisurely people watch. It can get pretty quiet, or where people are having a conversation everyone else can hear them.

Coffee is really good! The location is awesome. They also sell baked breads and variety of coffee bean bags. Their breakfast and lunch items seem good quality & little on the healthier side. There is a long table for studying. However, when it comes to service, definitely, there is a room for improvement. Staff can smile more! I barely noticed them smiling, and chairs are not comfortable.
I like this particular place because here there is always friendly relations and fast service, I also always get coffee at exactly the temperature I ask for. for example, I cannot drink boiling water, so I ask you for hot coffee temperature, and cold coffee is tasty and not burnt here, which I often noticed at other points in this cafe.
I cleaned one star because the toilet is constantly closed here, and you have to go far to the toilet of the shopping center, although it has its own. this is strange and sometimes very problematic and unpleasant alas.

Friendly service. Outdoor seating. Usual coffee atmosphere. Matcha latte is what they are known for plus there hot chocolate.
Beautiful healthy breakfast, very good service, not expensive. Merci Le Cafe Creme !!!

Small, quiet, and cozy place. Great for studying, catching up with friends. Good quality drinks that are definitely worth your money.
