Lovely little place. Strawberry matcha drink would have been especially nice with the matcha - I just declined because I didn't want the caffeine. Nice vibes. Clean bathroom. read more

I was looking for a quiet and cozy cafe that wasn't too crowded and found one! It was nice to sit on the comfy seats near the wall, enjoy the soft music in the background and the 'frothy' sounds from the coffee machine. It was just the vibe I was looking for. I asked for some advice from the server about what drink to get. I asked her which one was her favourite. She was really friendly and recommended the matcha drinks. I was in the mood for something with coffee flavour and luckily there was a matcha latte! The flavour was just right, and she even brought it directly to my table rather than calling it out and having me stand up to go get it. It was just a nice touch to the experience. I was able to enjoy my drink and read my book / write in my journal in peace! Peace is really what I needed today. I'm glad I was able to find it here :) read more

I didnt notice this tiny cozy cafe until i drove by a couple days ago. So i decided to try it out There are too many seats inside but it is very cozy and relaxing. They have a variety of iced matcha drinks which look very appealing. But i opted for the espresso machiato instead as it is my go-to. they also have a variety of interesting bagels on the menu and we decided to try the honey walnet bagel as i have a soft spot for all cheeses. The amount of brie and walnet inside the bagel is definitely a sweet deal for $8! The serving size was quite and i could only manage to finish half of a bagel The barista was super helpful and patient as i had a hard time deciding what to get from their menu. Lol read more

I popped into the cafe for a to go drink. The two staff members were friendly and welcoming. Although a small cafe, there is a good amount of seating and I spotted a few outlets. They also have free wifi :) I got the iced yuzu matcha and it was delicious. I would go back again to get this drink and try some of their specialty items. read more

Secret neighborhood joint tucked away just off of Cambie. I live a couple of blocks away, so I've had the pleasure of visiting many times and am finally reviewing. Their drink menu is extensive, with lots of fun Asian inspired options ranging from matcha, oolong, yuzu, Jasmine, etc. I love the creative combinations of flavors, even though I tend to stick with a simple matcha. Their pastries/snacks are also very delicious, with a mix of sweet and savory options. A little on the pricey side, but service is always extremely friendly and the ambiance is peaceful. I definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more

This restaurant was busy during the weekend lunch with the crowd growing as we left. The service format is similar to Big Way. You're seated with a number and you order at the counter, and the server brings the food to you. There is also a self-serve water and utensil station. The counter would be fantastic for drinks but the table was way too high for us to enjoy our meals sitting there. The miso uni pasta had a nice uni flavour that wasn't too overpowering, but the dish was too salty. The tuna tataki benny had a nice light soy flavour though the tuna could've been trimmed more carefully. I was expecting a light sear of the tuna but they were served raw. The poached eggs were well done. The warm bread pudding was our favourite - perfectly sweet and not too heavy. Prices were reasonable, but the dessert outshined the savoury brunch dishes. The restaurant is bright and clean. Overall, it was a decent experience. Not my favourite brunch joint but I'd be interested in coming back for dinner. Paid street parking available. read more

Cozy and aesthetic interior, with a plant theme. Paid meter parking around the block. Osmanthus Oolong $5.25: very normal/mediocre, nothing much to say about it. Yuzu Matcha $5.75: Not a fan of this at all...there's huge glob of yuzu at the bottom that was very sweet. Doesn't work well with the matcha drink on top. Maybe I should've tried their coffee instead... Tiramisu $7+: Pretty tasy! It was soft with a good ratio of cream to cake. Not dry. read more

Excellent little local coffee shop with strong Americano and tasty baked goods. I didn't get a chance to try all of them, but they look amazing. The Croiffle is a repeat for me (forgot to take a pic). Staff are friendly and wonderful. read more

The next time you are around the Cambie-Fairview area don't forget to take time and stop at @cafeandlifeco. It's great for a light meal and coffee break Highlights include their freshly made Belgium waffles, we had their fruit yogurt waffle which was light and refreshing! Along with a killer duck breast croissant (juicy filling and crispy pastry) and a matcha brownie, your couples date is set. Don't forget the beverages, and their yuzu tea and cortado makes for that nice relaxing moment you need in your day read more

We ordered the latte, iced uji matcha espresso, mango sago tiramisu. The service was super friendly and nice. The latte was definitely one of the best beans we've had. Not overly sour, very dark and strong notes. The iced uji matcha espresso was very strong and well balanced between matcha and espresso. The mango sago tiramisu was not too sweet. It had lots of mango in it but I felt like it could have used more sago. It didn't really remind me of a tiramisu but more of a mango cake you would get from a Chinese bakery. Overall would recommend this place for coffee and to hangout as the seats are very comfortable. They don't have a lot of seating inside but they have a patio outside which is nice. I would come back to try their other baked goods as they have croissants, cookies and canales read more

Stopped by this cute cafe in the Cambie area this afternoon and had a wonderful experience. We got a the ham and cheese croissant which hit the spot. Croissant was flaky and delicious and had a good ham to cheese ratio. The ice late was tasted great as well. I got a small size and was pleasantly surprised at the portion. A lot of cafes tend to drown the iced latte with a ton of ice, the ratio here was perfect. They also had a bunch of pastries and speciality yuzu drinks which looked great. Will make another visit to try them out. Service was great and the ambience was cozy, great spot to relax and sip on a coffee! read more

Such cute and cozy little place, total hidden gem! The place was spotless, and the staff was so nice and made me feel at home. They had a small selection of croissant sandwiches, lots of desserts, and a drink menu with lots of cool specialty drinks. It looked like they don't have any vegan food, but there are nondairy milks available. I had an egg salad croissant sandwich, a matcha brownie, and a roasted sweet potato latte (seasonal). The food all looked very pretty and was as tasty as it looked. The egg salad was really tasty, a little tangy the way I like, and the croissant tasted very fresh, with a flaky exterior and soft, buttery interior. The matcha flavour of the brownie was very strong and it tasted like the matcha was of high quality, so it wasn't harshly bitter. The melty white chocolate chips were so nice. The roasted sweet potato latte was also fantastic - the sweet potato flavour was natural and not very sweet at all which I liked! The espresso also had a nice smooth taste. I liked the slightly thicker texture of this drink. I got the feeling that everything was made with love, it was a very nice experience all around. read more

What a cute little gem of a cafe in Vancouver. I got the earl gray oat misto as they had run out of the oolong oat misto and I have to admit it had a unique flavour that I quite enjoyed. It was nice to have some nice tea selections on the menu with very friendly staff behind the counter. Will have to come back again! read more

Cozy cafe with the friendliest staff! Specializing in a variety of unique tiramisu flavors, cafe & life co. had a wide selection of never before seen slices like mixed berry, mango sago and pineapple! The tiramisu are very light in flavor, which is different from the traditional tiramisu, but might be preferable for others. I personally like my tiramisu spongier and stronger in cheesiness and taste, so it wasn't my favorite. They roast their own coffee beans which was absolutely delicious. Smooth, chocolatey and bold - their beans are definitely worthwhile. The staff was super friendly and very accommodating. The space has a nice vibe to it and very aesthetic to the eye with plants aroijd the entire cafe. It's a great spot to work or study! read more

New cafe just soft opening today on West 7th Ave, behind the Whole Foods Market. The cafe shop is small but has a warm welcoming interior decor. We had got a 12 oz latte and an Americano. The latte is very smooth and sweet with the right temperature. Their coffee has a fruity sweet and sour taste that balanced well with the bitterness. The owner is very friendly and also gives us some eclair to try. We got a passion fruit flavor and chocolate flavor eclair. Both flavors are devine. The outer shells are remained it's crisp and the filling cream is cold with right amount of sweetness. It is surprisingly good. We will definitely come back if we happen to be in the area. read more

Cute, cozy cafe just off Cambie. I was looking for a late afternoon drink and was happy to stumble upon this one. Staff were friendly and they made my drink quickly. While I waited, they offered me a sample of Melt Confectionary chocolate (which by the way is delicious). I ordered the black tea oat misto. It was perfect. They have a small selection of pastries and desserts. I'll be back to try out some of their treats and for another oat misto! read more

It really is a hidden gem! I am talking about Cafe and Life Co. This Tiramisu on point wow! I am dreaming about this pure perfection! It is so light and flavourful, not too sweet and not too heavy - Mango Sago Tiramisu. Light, Smooth and just delightful. I recommend the refreshing summer drinks as well: I tried their Homemade Yuzu Uji Matcha and it does not only look great but also has the perfect refreshing mixture. It is served on ice. House Special Mistos are for example: Oolong Oat Misto, Rose Oat Mist or Uji Matcha Espresso. I also tried their Uji Matcha espresso. It is half Match and Espresso with some Oat Milk. You can decide if you want it hot or cold. The other food options include deliciously looking Sconees, Cookies and Cruffins. Located close to Broadway on 7th Ave and with a lovely patio it is the perfect secret spot. Look at the interior: so aesthetic. Everything is so welcoming and sweet. And I can not highlight the staff enough. So lovely and nice: truly amazing. Plus their facilities are more than clean. Please check this out - I am so happy I tried their delicious treats! I love you Matcha... read more
