This is a BC coffee shop chain that started in downtown Vancouver. I saw many locations throughout BC during my visit and decided to give it a try for an afternoon pick me up. I love all the various drinks they offer from coffee, teas, and even protein shakes! They even have savory food, pastries, and whole bean coffee. I opted for the Ube Matcha Freddy - milk with ube, topped with whipped matcha cream. It was not too sweet and I loved the combination of the matcha and ube. Service was friendly and efficient. Great place for fun drinks! read more

Occasionally I would stop by Blenz coffee for an energy boost. Since my first visit two years ago, I found the business owner has been focus too on making too many fancy choices of coffee beverages but the core - the taste of espresso has been diminishing, sometimes tasteless. In this visit, I didn't feel energized after having a cup of latte. This may also related to not sufficient staff in the shop. I saw only one person doing the role of barista and cashier. No one clean the table. I hope the owner can see the issue and don't go too diverse. Just stay focus and make good coffee. read more

I've been to this location several times now, ever since I decided not to go to Starbucks anymore I have really been enjoying Blenz selections! Blenz drinks are not so horribly sweet as Starbucks, their hot and iced chocolates taste SO much better, and the staff members at this location has really become more friendly to customers over time! I tried the limited edition cucumber elderflower iced tea today, I wanted something refreshing and not too sugary, the guy who helped me choose my beverage was very patient and friendly when I asked about the ingredients. He asked me how it tasted when I took my first sip and lit up in joy when I told him it's quite good, it was a really nice visit for me. I hope more people can try their summer selections too! read more

Love the newer location, used to be at the corner with their own seating right in the middle of the hallway, guess with the new renos and the ever going musical chairs of different tenants month to month, BC has found a new home in the corridor leading to No. 3 Road, but I digress. This store is unique in that the layout is right inside a retail store, so a bit narrow. Booth seating all on the left, with some nice brick finish, and a round table in the very back corner. I'm indifferent to their coffee, but better selection of pastries than Starbucks. Generally, I've found it less busier. read more

Every now and then I'll pop into Blenz here inside Richmond Center. Usually it's for a meetup with friends or family while shopping in the mall. I'd rather go here than that other coffee shop that shall not be mentioned. because of the seating they have. I can hangout and converse while drinking my beverage. The snack items like the croissants and the sausage rolls are also good and a better value than that other coffee shop that shall not be mentioned. So I'm rating them 4 stars because the quick service I've always gotten from them despite the lineups, it's never been as crazy as that other coffee shop that shall not be mentioned. Note I like their Matcha lattes which are real and it from a syrup unlike that other coffee shop that shall not be mentioned.. heh :) read more

I had a generalized frustrating conversation with the Barista who clearly did not have product knowledge of what the drink offerings were or what different alternative milks they would have. I wanted a rose latte which is one of the common drinks but I had to tell them how to make it. The person at the til had to ask about non dairy milks. The latte came to me not as ordered.

It's summertime in Vancouver, and you know what that means...it's iced coffee season! Now at our house, we drink iced coffee beverages all year round. Having spent copious amounts of money on frappes from Godiva, Starbucks and Timmy's, we decided to try out some drinks from Blenz. We bough the Peach Lemonade Chillo, the Stone Fruit Chillo, the Caramel Capachillo and the Mochachillo. Honestly, all the drinks were delicious. Unlike Timmy's iced capp with mocha, the Mochachillo was bursting with a rich, full bodied mocha flavour. You could taste the creamy perfection of the Belgian chocolate in every sip, and it was an absolutely glorious drink. Yes, it costs a bit more than Timmys, but you're getting waaaay more flavour and less crushed ice for your money. (Seriously, if you MUST treat yourself to a diabetes inducing drink then at least do it right, people!) The caramel capachillo was similarly delectable, with a deliciously smooth caramel and ice cream flavour that knocked my socks off! Even the non-caffeinated fruit drinks were amazing. I especially loved the soft, icy texture of the drink. It was somewhere between shaved ice and the texture of a slurpee from 7-Eleven (but infinitely superior to both). If you have a sensitivity to caffeine (like me) then Timmys might be a better way to indulge yourself if you want to avoid an earth shattering stomach upset (they definitely put less coffee in their frappes than Blenz). But honestly? If you want a luxurious cold beverage experience, then suck it up and go with Blenz. My stomach ache literally kept me up all night, and I still say it was worth it. So delicious. read more

Came here about a year ago, it was a horrible experience. I was asking a staff how much a strawberry smoothie was, and as I was speaking the two employees made eye contact and gave me dirty looks. A second later, they asked if I was "comparing prices" between different stores. They were extremely rude and stubborn and would not let me know how much the drink was when I was just trying to see if I had enough money to purchase t because I'm broke as hell. Like pardon me, but I cannot see the small printing menus on their tv's hung up on the wall. Not even mentioning that the strawberry smoothie price is not even posted on their menu. I've never revisited this Blenz Coffee as they gave me and my friend a horrific first impression, and I will definitely never return! read more

Nothing like coming in to Blenz for a cup of coffee. Whether you fancy yourself a mocha, cappucino or just a regular cup of joe, you will find your favourite cup of caffeine in this place. Service is average since there was not much people in the place. Then again, where this not much of a line in there, then the place will get kind of relaxing and is not a place to be serious about. read more

The inside you can actually taste the caramelized portion of the egg tart, plus the egg waffle is not overly sweet. If there's anything that I would critique on, that would be to have more of the filling inside the egg waffle since it was half filled. The oolong lemon tea was great. It tasted like something I had in HK before. And I agree with the recommendation, it's best to drink it within 30 min. As far as service goes, it was awesome. The young male staff was very polite. He was very patient as well. On top of it, the place is clean and cool. I don't live around the Vancouver area but if I am ever back in the area, I would love to go back!

We saw this spot on a reel showcasing their pineapple bun bubble waffles and had to check it out!…read moreThe line was right at the door and the inside was pretty packed. The shop is small, so it's mostly an order-and-go situation. We ended up waiting about 45 minutes for our order -- understandable since they only have two machines and each waffle has to be carefully "painted" with the pineapple bun crust. - Pineapple Bun (Bolobao) Bubble Waffle -- undeniably cute, like mini pineapple buns; loved the crust flavor, but the waffle itself was unfortunately on the dry side - Iced HK Milk Tea -- cool and refreshing; not as strong or silky as the Richmond food court versions, but still satisfying on a summer day Service was kind and respectful despite the long wait. Ambience is bustling with a cute, playful interior. They definitely need more waffle machines! Still worth trying for the novelty -- the concept is great, and once they perfect the texture, these could be amazing.

Sinfully The Best

Tried their sinfully silky chocolate tart as a part of the Fisherman's Table event at Steveston…read more Gorgeously rich tart that wasn't too sweet. It had a cheesecake-like base layer topped with chocolate ganache and a chocolate short crust. The berries on top were all carefully picked - perfect in shape, all deliciously sweet, without any tartness. Loved the chocolate fish detail that paid homage to the area - what a thoughtful touch. Will def visit their storefront to try more of their treats. The ladies at the counter also lovely.
