Pros: Convenient location beside the Vancouver Art Gallery. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Occasionally there is a cashier who speaks French, so you can almost feel as if you’re in France. Nice seating area inside and on the patio. Cons: Very limited selection of things to eat on a weekday after the lunch rush. Washrooms are sometimes dirty. There is often a long queue to get to the cashier. Pastries are average; one would naturally expect more, given the high prices for food here. The vegetarian quiche is shockingly bland for something that costs around $14.

I often go in the morning for breakfast, but I was disappointed to pay almost $7 for the ham and cheese croissant when it had a tiny slice of ham, and no cheese inside, only a little bit on top. I went at 9am and the croissant itself was not fresh, so I’m guessing from yesterday. Not fair business to charge the full price for that and I don’t think I’ll be going back anytime soon.

A wonderful café in Vancouver with amazing service. I went with my mom yesterday and the Lemon Yuzu was so delicious!

Cute cafe,interesting cake combinations..tried the black sesame one which was nice. Expresso was very bitter and service could have been friendlier.

Came for lunch and had the most lovely ham and cheese crepe! The ingredients tasted super fresh, and the black forest ham added extra flavour compared to crepes I've had before.

The interior was lovely, and I can't wait to try the sandwiches whilst I'm here too. Would recommend to anyone in downtown.

4.5 - A cozy little French Cafe with a great selection of fresh and creatively made pastries and sandwiches. We come here quite a bit. Our usuals are the double chocolate pistachio croissant and the vegetarian spinach and feta croissant and we love them both.

Their Americanos could be slightly better, but that's because I tend to like my coffee quite strong, so usually I get my Americano with an extra shot of espresso, I find the single to be a little watery for me.

The atmosphere and environment is really lovely and tastefully decorated and all the windows gives you a cozy place to sit, observe and just Be. I find the staff varies, as sometimes when we walk in there's a warm and attentive friendly greeting and sometimes there isn't.

There's also a great space outside to sit if you enjoy a nice chilly morning with your coffee cup and pastry watching the locals walk by :)
