Local, independent coffee spot with classic north vancouver vibe. Feel like a local while you take a table outside and enjoy the view of the mountains. Best to go mid-morning when the morning sun has crested over the mountain to warm the sidewalk patio.

A bakery that serves coffee. Great place to stop for breakfast or lunch or just a fresh delectable snack. Everything is made in house which creates a warm inviting atmosphere and the aromatic smell of baking makes its way throughout the bakery from morning to night.

The food and service are second to none. For a special night out be sure to make a reservation. One of the best summer outdoor, roof-top deck bars and dinning in Vancouver. But get there early because they don't take reservations for the roof top deck.
