Reviews
I had the croffle and an einspanner, the croffle was delicious however the coffee was bland or felt watered down (similar to that of tim hortons brew coffee) and did not mix well with the cream in the einspanner. The service was great however it was fully packed even past 2pm and I had to sit at the bar facing the window that did not have any blinds. I was dying from the blazing sun and left shortly after, thus don’t recommend this cafe for work/study.
Really lovely cafe! I love the vibes (such cute interior) and the staff are lovely. Super yummy looking baked goods and pastries, and a nice drink selection. Also saw so many people having croissant sandwiches and they looked so yum
Overall: 5/5

An exceptionally clean and spacious for a takeout sushi spot. They have a self-serve sitting area with beautiful wooden furniture. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the mango tango rolls which were both big and incredibly tasty. The Grill BBQ Eel on rice, it was delicious too. The staff members were friendly.
You can tell the sushi was made very rushed. The material used wasn’t that great, the rice was mushy and the avocados used was not ripe. Soya sauce was poor quality also, group of six was quite displeased resulting in me to cover the bill. 😔
Excellent cafe among the beautiful wineries in the Niagara region. Good coffee, lots of delicious freshly baked goods to choose from and friendly staff. I took home the frozen pizza and it was one of the best frozen pizza I ate at home.
For the second week in a row, I've dropped by this coffee shop to grab a latte to-go before my kids' weekend soccer games, and I've consistently been impressed by the coffee's quality.
My son and his friend indulged in some Banana bread right after the soccer game, and they both thoroughly enjoyed it. 😁
While I didn't have the time to stay and savor the ambiance, I must say I'm quite taken with the unique decor of this coffee shop.
I'll definitely be returning to enjoy their coffee again.
Thank you!

I love going to Arbutus coffee. It’s my go to place.
They often have different special brews each days which are fun to try. I also enjoy their oats.
In the morning you also see a lot of dogs being taken for a walk which, while has nothing to do with the place, is a perk nonetheless.
Their payment machine are super slow though. Other than that, it’s a great place.

I told them twice while I was there but I don’t think they fully comprehended, this is the best iced latte I have ever had. I am torn between chugging it before the ice melts or slowly savouring each sip. If I could, I would swim around in this iced latte like a happy, caffeinated mermaid. I will be so sad when it is gone, but it will always have a special place in my heart. Don’t even get me started on the food, it’s so good it’s not even fair. I would live here and raise my children here, if I could.
Coffee was good, my husband got a coffee that was exactly the opposite as the one he asked for but we believe the girl knew it and she offered to change it even before he tried it. She was super nice so he didn’t even wanted to return the coffee.
People don’t understand that sometimes is not even about the place or product is about the people.
Nevertheless, in this case, coffee was good, bakery was good. The quiche was great… We even came back today, unfortunately it was closed because of some maintenance.
We will be back, for sure.

Best pies in Ontario! Wow. I have a friend that goes to Niagara just to buy these pies as we live in Toronto. This summer she asked if I wanted one, so I said yes. This is my 3rd time buying and they are delicious. If you like banana, I highly recommend the bananas cream pie. Peach pie, is amazing. The pies have sat in my fridge for more than a week and the crust does not go stale or soggy. Couldn’t believe it. They also have the best rice crispy treats I’ve ever had! They are doing something special over at Pie Plate Niagara. 100% recommend 🥧
This is the second time I visited a Prado branch and the second time I was served luke-warm bland coffee. My Soy Cortado was massively dull, unimpressive and a disappointment.
I hate to bash on this joint and local businesses as it seems a sweet coffee house.

I love the coffee here but I have to give it two stars because of the inflated price. It’s hard to be more expensive than the already incredibly high price of coffee in Vancouver but this place is really trying. I just paid 7.72 for a latte (basically small sized) with oat milk. In this day and age it really is a shame to be charging almost a dollar extra for alternative milks, and it makes me sad to see this happening in such a nice spot in Kitsilano.
Super cute cafe, all of the baked goods are top notch and the service is very friendly. They have a nice selection of local beers, meats, and frozen stuff you can bake at home. 10/10 will def come again
Love the coffee here and will return. In particularly the Hawaiian Latte. The pastries are sub par and "Costco like" in quality. Service is efficient but never a smile, rarely eye contact and often a snarly 'I don't want to be here' attitude.
Adorable neighbourhood cafe.
My fav go to drink is the Dalgona Latte (hot or cold) The baked treats like croissants 🥐 are delicious as well. It’s a cute and quiet cafe you can set up and work in as well.
Parking is not great because if the location so it’s hard to find parking. Service and food are great with lots of Korean inspired drinks and baked goods. They also offer milk alternatives and have a changing menu of treats and drinks as they seasons change.

Used to be a decent place. However, I'd avoid this place, ESPECIALLY closer to closing time. They serve less than edible fish. The tuna specifically was grey and NOT fresh. Basically got served pricey leftovers
I was planning to go to Chillax next door, but it was packed, so I went to AiSushi. This is the first time I've been to this location (tried Markham before), and the sushi quality is great. There's not much seating space, but they have 3 tables. Most people get takeout. Reasonable prices for delicious sushi. They provided plates, utensils, soya sauce and wasabi when I dined in.
I ordered a cake on Uber for my moms birthday, but it was nothing like the image on their website. Gave them a call and they kindly offered to exchanged for the design I was hoping for. Thank you Karen and the team for helping me out!
The range of drinks offered is great, the staffs are also very professional, the food range is ofcourse limited but this is a cafe not a full restaurant. Overall is good for coffee and cakes
Food, service, and coffee is absolutely top notch! But blimey, please fix the AirCon!!! On a hot day, there isn’t enough shade outside except for one measly umbrella that is insufficient. Inside must be hot because of the baking and/or low output of conditioned air. We love your products and attitude, but the old facility at least had a covered porch that allowed some shade and airflow! One star off for the uncomfortable heat…
Our mid morning bike ride pit stop for the last year. I’m completely hooked on their Yuzu Espresso Soda. A cold spritzer coffee with just the right amount of sweetness. 😋😋
All their pastries are amazing. My goto snack are their amazing Matcha Breakfast cookies.
Great service and friendly staff.

We always return to this Hawaiian themed oasis for the coffee. Nicely prepared. The place is calm, clean, comfortable and cool on a hot day. Our preferred place for a coffee break in Kerrisdale.
Today we had the immense pleasure of visiting La Cuisson cafe. What an incredible experience. We arrived and were served very quickly. We asked for a coffee recommendation, mentioning that it was our first time there. We were suggested a delicious coffee – light and flavorful, just as we had requested. We had the opportunity to watch the syphon coffee being prepared up close, and throughout the whole process, Jason explained intricate details about the coffee. We enjoyed a flavorful red berry and passion fruit cheesecake. The place is very clean and pleasant, and the decoration is amazing. However, what will definitely make us return is the taste of the coffee paired with the excellent quality of service.
Nice and spacious café with reasonably priced and tasty drinks. It's close to Fairview Mall and a neighbourhood park. I tried the royal milk tea latté, black sesame latté, and yuzu citrus tea! All very yummy.
"Go to" café in the neighborhood. Their coffee is great and they have a nice terrace to chill outside. They also serve sandwiches, that are quite good, if you're hungry (just one selection).
The best coffee place in town! The owner Jason is a coffee master. He is so knowledgeable in coffee and can teach every customer how to enjoy a cup of coffee without adding any cream or sugar. Their dessert are all made in house. If you want to taste high quality coffee, this is the place to go. You won’t regret it!
Was visiting Montreal over a weekend and came here every day. Delicious coffee with very kind staff, a lovely lady named June served us all three days and put a smile on our faces each time.
The bread has a hard texture and hard to chew and taste like chemical or paint. Not tipical asian bread, Probably old bread still on the distal
Ordered a birthday cake online and it did not disappoint! The cake is called "Chantlli"- the cream is so light yet has this fresh, rosy taste. It's subtly sweet, exactly the kind of dessert I've been searching for! They've got a great selection of sliced cakes and bread too. My only suggestion would be a re-do of the entrance for easier navigation, but other than that, no complaints here!
This is our first time ordering Uber takeout from you. For the prices you command, it doesn't feel like the quality is there. For a $17.45 crepe, I would hope that packaging would be better so that half of the crepe doesn't stick to the paper that it was housed in. It literally fell apart. The fruit cup it came with wasn't the freshest either (many grapes were uncomfortably soft). The sandwiches and pistachio chocolate croissant seemed to be fine but the crepe/fruit part made a mediocre impression for a $48 breakfast.
Save yourself the time and go somewhere that actually puts effort into their food.
I noticed as i looked around multiple Kirkland labels, and while there is nothing wrong with Costco i do have an issue with paying a premium for something i could have easily made my self.
My breakfast bagel was a Costco bagel with the thinnest slice of ham i’ve ever seen in my life. Not worth the price, should be $4.
Also the management should allow their staff to drink more coffee or something because they all looked so tired the guy at the cash couldn’t stop rubbing his eyes.

This is my fav cafe in southwest. The coffees made by a manual espresso machine are absolutely top notch. Go for a flat white or cappuccino, you won’t regret it. Cocktails are also great.
Been coming for years , it never disappoints! Staff is friendly and the fish is fresh and rolls are flavourful. Highly recommend this place for tasty sushi , we love their platters and dons- good value for what you get too
I was very excited to come try coffee from the famous Prado cafe, I was left a little deflated, it was a standard Italian espresso with no crazy roasting palet. When the barista made the Coffee, it felt rushed, with no love. in an empty cafe.
The owners made us feel warmly welcome and opened their beautiful Cafe a little early. My 96 year old Mum enjoyed a delicious and unique fruit mousse, and I loved the coffee hazelnut cake. All made by hand. Of course the hand roasted coffee was beautiful. Try it. You'll like it!

Good food and good price. However, we dined in without getting any service. We had to walk to the front desk to order and no plates or water was provided. It was a little difficult to eat 🥲
Cute and cozy cafe with friendly staff and creative menu. I had one of their signature“croffle” and I liked it is. They creatively make a waffle using puff pastry dough! So tastes like croissants but less airy. Mine was cream berries option an I liked the taste of it’s cream and mixed berry jam topping, not too sweet. My drink was london fog and loved it.
Great coffee and cookies selection. Lovely staff. Perfect spot in Hastings. It was a bit busy but luckily I’ve got nice spot next to the window! Besides I spent some time reading about the cinematheque upcoming films in the magazine (which I found in the cafe:)
A really nice Hawaiian themed cafe with great beverages and tasty looking snacks.
I tried the Hawaiian latte, which was just a bit sweeter than a regular latte, with flavors of macadamia and coconut 🥥 (which worked really well with the coffee).
The baked goods looked really nice as well, and though I wasn't hungry, I had to put up a picture so people check em out.
Kinda hard to reach since there's no skytrain around the area, but if you're nearby and like coffee and cookies, you should definitely try this place.

Attentive and knowledgeable, the barista skillfully guided me to the perfect tea and sandwich combination, enhancing my dining experience with their expertise and friendly service. Calling all coffee aficionados in the neighborhood! Experience the exquisite flavors and inviting ambiance of this charming coffee shop; your taste buds and senses. will thank you!Best moment of the day...
exceptional service and the owner and his wife are very friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu offerings. The cafe is also has cozy atmosphere with excellent baked goods selection and coffee drinks. La Cuisson cafe is reliable and enjoyable spot for anyone looking for a relaxing break.
Amazing coffee and desserts! Jasmine iced coffee and raspberry & passion fruit cheesecake are my best recommendations. If you are looking for a vintage decor coffee shop that plays relaxing music and has great service, this is the place to go!
We stumbled upon this place on a fine spring sunday morning while roaming around Fairview mall. The ambiance was warm, inviting, and friendly. Their coffee and croissant sandwich were not that bad either. Cool place for hang out and chill.
Went there to pick up a U-haul I had previously booked online. I was a bit worried with all the bad reviews I read before, but everything was perfect! Service was efficient and courteous, the Van was in good condition, I didn't get any surprise fees. Totally recommend it :)
Ai sushi is back to good standards. Sushi has improved and the standards have gotta much higher, very similar to when they first opened. Good to see they have made changes. One of best great places for take out sushi in richmondhill. Great value for what u pay for.
The donuts here were already good when I first tried them, but they’ve improved now, at least for my personal taste in donuts. I prefer them with more of a dense, coffee-cake-like texture, and that’s exactly the direction they’re moving towards, complete with a delicious, faintly caramelized icing. Too few places have so much attention to detail in their pastries! All-around fantastic coffee place.
We are from out of town and was craving sushi. After a bit of looking we had found AI is best bang for the buck. Place an order online and went to pickup.
However a mistake was made and we only realized it when we opened it up at the bnb.
We immediately called and explain the problem we had.
They listened and were super accomodating. They rushed the correction order as we were staying just 5 mins away and wanted to get it for the rest of meal.
When we arrived they had the order ready and had an appology note.
I get mistakes happens and it is how the places handles these situations that makes all the diffrence. Ai sushi gets a pass!
A side from that the food was great. But i must say their customer service is A1.
Thanks

I love this place! It’s so cute and has great drinks and food. The service is outstanding too. Sitting there and enjoying an iced dalgona coffee is one of my favourite things to do. Highly recommend it!
I like this cute local place. The ambience is really pleasant, street side tables can be a delightful option if weather is good enough to let you sit outside.
Currently there isn't a sign out front to indicate this is the location.
Came for a first time visit. The space is small with a few seating spaces. There is also a patio area out front.
Most of the options of baked goods available today were sweet. We tried the tomato and gouda tart with a mixed green salad. The salad portion was generous.
We bought a rhubarb custard pie to bring home. The pie is not only beautiful but also delicious. The addition of the merengue is a lovely combination.
There is a small fridge near the entrance with drinks, cold cuts, and cheese. This would be a great spot to get some snacks for a picnic while out in the area.

Loved this place. Nice vibes and good. Especially I really liked seating near glass and click pictures lol coffee was good too. Only thing is less options available for my vegetarian friend who went along with me.
Very unique vibe of this small joint
Good coffee

I spent one hour reading a book and cup of coffee- there is a very special vibe of this place

Service was fine. But when I received my order and realized for $7.50 what the breakfast sandwich was I felt immediately frustrated that I spent so much on a my breakfast. I understand everyone is expensive these days but this is just to much. Lost a customer.
Coming here to try the Kopi Luwak and had a really great experience and excellent service from the owner. If you are serious about coffee and want to try different types of coffee, this is your place! They also have delicious desserts, and the croissant is even better and flakier than any other famous croissant place I have tried. The environment is very relaxing. Highly recommend.
Ordered the Acai smoothie but it unfortunately only tasted heavily of the Sun Rype apple juice that they were using as a base. There were no blueberry, strawberry or banana taste at all and the consistency of the drink was basically juice instead of smoothie. I would not pay $10.76 again just to drink Sun Rype apple juice.
Good food, gorgeous atmosphere, cool staff! Had a good Americano, drip coffee, smoked salmon bagel on their in house made bagels, and a sweet potato and leek pot pie! Food was tasty and the staff was super nice! We were passing through town and wanted a snack, so this was a lucky find! I would much rather giving money to someone local instead of Tim's or McDonald's!
We went to have a birthday brunch with my friend. It’s such a hidden gem in the area. There are so many different kinds of coffee and drinks on the menu and we had a hard time to choose what to order. The lady that served us was so friendly and sincere, she recommended us to choose the Blue Mountain coffee and the Mocha Java. We also ordered the Panini with Turkey Ham. We could smell the toasted Panini from the kitchen before it got to our table. It was delicious!! I am not a coffee expert, but my friend had the Blue Mountain and she said it’s really good. Since it’s a birthday celebration and I didn’t prepare a cake (my bad!!), so we ordered 2 mini cakes (also recommended by the server)- Chestnut tart and Passion fruit tart. We’ve finished our coffee, so we ordered a pot of Fruit Garden and Wild Berry as our dessert drinks. We loved the Fruit Garden, it’s perfect match with the cakes. I like the Wild Berry too, but a little sour for my friend’s taste. During our dessert time, we asked our lady server and see if she can take a photo of us, but she said she isn’t a good photographer and introduced us to her colleague, whom can take good photos because he’s also a photographer. We were really impressed with the friendly services and ambience from the restaurant. We will be back!!
I had a pleasant dining experience here, thanks in part to the great quality of the coffee beans that are roasted in-house. The hand-made syphon-style coffee had a pleasant mouthfeel, and the gourmet desserts were a perfect match. I highly recommend trying the truly exceptional cup of coffee they serve.
I'd been wanting to come here since the very beginning of the Greater Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival. Just couldn't resist the "Raincouver" hot chocolate with the cloud of Cotton Candy that I'd been seeing all over social media and I knew it was something our daughter would enjoy. So...we finally made it out to Honolulu Coffee for the "Raincouver" hot chocolate. While we were at it, we decided to also order "The Donut" which is the other flavor of hot chocolate that Honolulu Coffee is offering for the hot chocolate festival.
The donut which accompanied "The Donut" hot chocolate was delicious. We enjoyed it almost as much as we enjoyed the cotton candy. We enjoyed the cotton candy more...but only because it was funner. In terms of tastiness, the two treats were about neck and neck.
Both hot chocolates were good but the Raincouver was our favourite, and not just because of the Instagram worthy cloud of cotton candy that was suspended over the drink. The Donut hot chocolate had a shot of espresso in it. This made the drink taste more like a coffee beverage than a hot chocolate beverage. We enjoyed it; however, we preferred the Raincouver hot chocolate which had more of a traditional hot chocolate taste to it.
I was overjoyed when I saw a sign in the shop that said they accept clean, reusable cups! Really hoping to see more of this moving forward as I'm very much an advocate for eco-friendly options.
Service: Good
Parking: Free parking nearby on West or East Blvd.
Location: West 41st @ West Blvd.

Faubourg - it's my type of the coffee shop! I enjoy my cappuccino every time I am close by! What a fantastic taste of a French style and atmosphere overall! Highly recommend!
The young ladies was very friendly.
Really Impressed with thier service. Will Be back next time.

Tried the Pie Plate today on a whim, while looking for a quick bite to eat and coffee for lunch. Very clean establishment, staff were quick, friendly and accommodating. The restaurant also has a good layout for seating. Everything looked fresh and homemade, prices were a little high, but that comes with the cost of quality. Coffee was great, also tried the frocaccia cup n’ char pepperoni pizza, amazing, light, crispy and freshly made. We tried a few of the pastries and cookies as well, overall excellent. There was a steady flow of customers in and out during our visit. I would highly recommend you stop by. We will be back again to try some more of the menu items.
This location has been here many years servicing the local community. Plenty of savoury and sweet options with friendly owners and staff to help. Nice amount of seating for a pleasant bite and drink.
The vegan wrap hit the spot, and the holiday spice latte was a pleasant sip! 10/10 would recommend it. The best part is that they are open earlier in the morning, so you can grab something before the day starts.
5 star for the quality of the coffee itself. Loved the coffee and the ambiance.
Cute place and nice desserts/bakery items. Didn’t order coffee but seems like a good place for espresso! The surrounding area is not super salubrious so be aware of where you park!
Will definitely be back and recommend it to others! Prices were affordable too!

The matcha and the lavender cake are good. But that chocolate cake though… it’s so dry… felt they left it in the oven 15min it’s to long. It was so dry and not pleasant to eat…. Yuzu and lemon tart is ok.
Nothing to knock this place on, except haila far walk down to the restroom 😂. The green tea teapot was so cute, but tea itself had nice and subtle flavors. The London fog was also solid. Lots of big windows for good lighting.
Latte was pretty good. Pasties looked delish - I tried Vanilla cream brioche. It was not very sweet, but the bread tasted dry - probably not from the same day. Anyway, a good place for grabbing some coffee and just chill.
Nice place out of busy area, feel like an oasis from the madness out there. Nothing really special in terms of decor. I just got a slice of chocolate chip banana loaf today and it was one of the best of this kind that I've tried. Eventhough I won't be rush to be back, there are many many good options in the area, but I will still be back!
I’m still upset since they gave me a 20% coupon after I dumped half of the cake I purchased. I kept the cake in the fridge overnight and the next morning, it tasted sour and become to mold. As a big brand, please know how to make your customer satisfied with your services, Shu Cake!!!
It's a big store and not so bright. I feel sad in this store. However, two young ladies who give you service have big smiles and quickly assist you. The parking around is rare because it is impossible to park on 12th St. On the street, sometimes it is hard to find any.
The cake is undersized by an inch. The whipped cream tastes great but is not firm at all. The birthday also came without any cutlery. It so happens that it is poorly balanced inside and fell over (see picture). Overall good cake but overpriced.
Extremely bad service, they rent trucks, we called to confirm, they say everything is fine and once you get at shop they tell you that they don’t have the truck and make you waste your drive, and 2 more hours. Extremely bad service
I stopped in needing a U-Haul on short notice, while they didn't have one available the young lady working was very polite and extremely helpful with helping me elsewhere.
Terrible service. Asked to drop a uhaul off after hours and no drop box provided. Never give this horrible place your money. Complete garbage. Uhaul obviously doesn’t care about their name either.
Visited their W41st Ave. location in Kerrisdale expecting to be impressed. The place was busy, and the staff there were shorthanded. Faubourg is affected by the very common problem in Vancouver, not enough people interested in working in the restaurant industry... Despite being super busy, staff were diligent and explained that drinks in particular, might take a few minutes to be prepared. No problem there. Ordered a Nutella filled crêpe, a couple of macarons, and a double baked pistachio chocolate croissant. In general, the 3 were ok, but not spectacular. The croissant in particular, probably better when recently baked, but by mid day just ordinary, and therefore not worth the price in my opinion. Will have to give their other specialties a try. The cakes, tarts and savoury treats look great, and I'm really hoping that the experience will be more exciting...
We weren’t sure at first about coming here for a quick coffee at around lunchtime on Saturday, but it’s a great thing we followed the neon “espresso” sign in their window. Staff is super friendly and welcoming and the butter croissant…extremely buttery! After speaking with the friendly people here, I’ll likely try to come back again but later in the day for a cocktail, because if they’re anything close to the great coffees we’ll be well-served. Take a look at the attached picture of their menu for a preview. Cheers,
I visited this French bakery shop at the heart of Kerrisdale yesterday seeing the pretty pastries, eclairs, tarts on display. There was a long queue inside.
The ambience of the place is nice and relaxed. There is a big seating area inside as well as a patio at the back. We tried their decadent tri-chocolate mousse. It was delicious. Most of the pastries cost about 7.6$ which I found to be quite expensive.
I would love to try some of their other pastries in future.

Kona coffee is one of my favourite coffees. Just had to come here to taste their peaberry Kona coffee. I’m a huge fan of pour over coffees. Yes it is expensive but if you love coffee you would appreciate it. Starbucks is not even in the same playing field. Starbucks coffee is so over roasted. That’s why you have to put cream and sugar to mask it.
Açai Hawaiian Bowls - brings back memories of Maui. The açai was really good texture. Was not watery and had good consistency. Lots of nuts, honey and fruit and granola. My family really enjoyed it.
Brownie - was kind of hard. So not moist, a bit dry but it was yummy.
Pour over 100% Kona Peaberry - really good cup coffee. Chocolate and honey notes. Pour over method used was Hario V60. Water temp was 205. I’m happy to pay the money for this coffee. I watched the pour over being done and it was well done. I didn’t time the extraction but it tasted good.

Pour over 100% Kona Peaberry - really good cup coffee. Chocolate and honey notes. Pour over method used was Hario V60. Water temp was 205. I’m happy to pay the money for this coffee. I watched the pour over being done and it was well done. I didn’t time the extraction but it tasted good.
Attractive decor and setup. Their pastries are only ok. Latte was quite disappointing (taste like it was watered down). Perhaps their cakes and other products are better? May be a while before I return for another try.
Taking back a friends uhaul and they said there would be charges for gas. I showed them the gas reciprt, and the two photos proving we put in more that what we started with. If you like to Hassel and barter and just be absolute scum, this store has you covered.
Very friendly young lady was super helpful today. I really appreciate your excellent customer service. Love the selection of products here. Great convenience store. Perfect location.
Absolute hidden gem. I cycled 12km across town to check it out and it was worth every pedal. Super cute, relaxed, clean and welcoming coffee house.
Unless there was a staffing change, I honestly can't understand the negative comments about the staff as they are absolutely awesome, extremely friendly and approachable as well as keep you safe with protective COVID measures. I messed up my own order and the batista actually offered to pay for the difference herself (which I of course tipped her in return).
Everything here is deliciously tasty and a great range of vegan options. They also have a great selection of local roasters coffee and plenty of plant-based milk alternatives.
Unfortunately no current indoor seating, which cannot be helped. However, there is plenty of spaced seating outdoors which is so nice on a sunny day.

My spouse and I came for a small cake and the cashier straight up told us they don't have ready to go cake and we have to order online. Then we were about to go to our way to another bakery. Suddenly a guy approached us from inside the store and told us they can make a cake within 15 minutes. We chose The Mousse and until at the cashier we were billed $60 for a 7 inches Mousse cake. It's way overpriced compared with competitors with same quality. To be fair, their cake texture and taste quite to our liking. It looks great too! I'm seeing the same feedback from other customers that their price is too expensive. In this pandemic times, they better listen to their customers.
PRICE : overpriced ($6.99 for this bread)
TASTE : good but it's a pity fillings are tiny
TEXTURE : very soft and little bit chewy
COFFEE : only $0.99
SELECTION : there are only two kinds of breads such as this pic's type(a lots of flavours they have tho) and croissants.
STORE : no washroom, 10 seats.

I wanted to try a Tapas restaurant and after seeing pictures of the food on Instagram i knew I had to try Cordova. The place unfortunately was not what i expected. I was expected a more cozy, bigger place with actual tables but there was only a couple tiny tables and a couple high stools.
The food was amazing (everything is on the salty side). You need to try the cured meats, cheeses, tomato bread and you definitely have to try the shishito peppers. I ordered a couple cocktails that were delicious as well.
Only thing that bothered me is that everything came out extremely fast. I would suggest you go there for lunch more than to have a romantic date on a Saturday night.
The bill was higher than expected (160$). It was a bit of a shock considering that we barely stayed half hour. The place has a lot of potential but should definitely move to a bigger location. It would make a bigger killing if it was more comfortable and less rushed.
Overall, you should try to joint if you wanna have a light lunch or if you’re in a rush. The tapas are top.

The entrance was hidden, not very visible. Real cramped as you walk in, but not an issue if it isn't a lot of people that day. They have such unique buns, if you order 6 or more it's all tax free. Their patisserie were not overly sweet if that's your kinda thing, but beautiful in design for sure. Maybe the cash desk can be a bit more organized in terms of wayfinding. Lovely new store that's worth checking out!
Love the unique flavours this bakery offers. They make high quality bread - not the ones like you are biting into air. I also love their bubble tea. Some of my favourite items are Nutty Espresso, Matcha Lava, Charcoal Sausage. And the mini cakes they make look like art pieces. If you are in this neighbourhood, it's a must-try. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. They also accept WeChat and Alipay.
