Michael and his wife are so passionate about their business that you feel it in the quality of the food and drinks they offer. Their coffee is amazing and the ice cream is awesome (love how they experiment with flavours + they have the best Yuzu ice cream in Vancouver). You should definitely check this place.

I ventured out for a good ice cream, as this was one of the places that I wanted to try. I was pleasantly surprised. The man there that served me my ice cream, was super nice. The ice cream was very good and he actually put some time in scooping my ice cream and making it look so pretty.

I couldn't resist giving this place a try after seeing it make waves on popular ice cream lists in the city. Coffee and ice cream? A combination that had me intrigued. While I wouldn't go so far as to proclaim it the absolute best, there were certainly some noteworthy elements to appreciate.

The flavor profile of the ice cream, along with its light and creamy texture, caught my attention. I opted for the HK Milk Tea with the Creamsicle, a delightful choice that perfectly suited the sunny day. The unique flavors they offer are quite enticing, and I must admit, I do wish they allowed sampling so that customers can explore the array of options.

All in all, while it may not have reached the pinnacle of ice cream greatness for me, I still found enjoyment in certain aspects of the experience. With their intriguing flavors and pleasant creaminess, this place is worth a visit for ice cream aficionados looking for something a little different.

Lovely place, kid friendly, always feel great stopping by.

We had visited this place since four years ago, unique ice cream flavors to choose from, siphon brew coffee with freshly roasted beans from the cafe.

Still great coffee, siphon brewers, pour overs, cold brew and nitro! Best value in town for roasted whole bean coffee. Third wave quality, grocery store prices. Friendly and very knowledgeable staff. The best. Ice cream is excellent as well. Voted 7th best ice cream in Vancouver.

This is a nice modern coffee shop in the Arbutus/12th neighborhood. They roast their own coffee beans and they are not shy about it as their roasting machine is right at the front of the shop for everyone to see. The smell of coffee roasting is so wonderful and toasty especially on a cold day.

There's a big communal table in the middle of the shop and also a long counter by the window. The shop is quite cozy with warm lighting. It was not too busy late the afternoon so we were able to relax and enjoy our visit.

We were able to try the latte and chocolate croissant. The latte had a nice strong kick to it and not very acidic. We were hoping to try a mocha but didn't see it on their menu. The chocolate croissant was indeed quite chocolatey compared to other places.

You can buy their roasted coffee beans for $12 a bag. They got quite a bit of beans to choose ranging from decaf to espresso roasts.

Oh yes, they also serve ice cream too. We didn't get to try ice cream today as it was too cold, but when it warms up, we will certainly come back to try ice cream.
