Dalina is a great place for a quick lunch or to order catering. I've eaten almost all of their wraps and salads. Their items are pre made, but you can ask for the wraps or sandwiches to be grilled quickly. We ordered catering for our office lunch and if was easy. Surprisingly everyone kept saying how delicious the kale salad was. It has tons of fresh kale, cucumbers, purple cabbage, apple slices, almonds and feta with the good amount of tangy dressing. Service is always top and I've never had a bad experience. read more

Cute cafe located in Chinatown! Really bright and nice interior perfect for catching up with friends or a midday pick-me-up. The staff are super friendly and the vibes are positive. The coffee isn't the best, but overall it is decent. I got the sweet milk cold brew and was a little disappointed, as it was just a glass of milk with honey and a small splash of cold brew for $7. However, I'm willing to try them again if I'm in the area! read more

I was visiting Vancouver for a weekend and my Airbnb was next to this coffee shop. Came around 9 am to get a soy vanilla latte. I was disappointed that I was charged $1 for the soy milk and $0.75 for the pump of vanilla but other than that its was good. The place has nice brunch vibe perfect for both breakfast & lunch and they have quite a lot of seating both indoor & outdoor. Later that morning I order two more latte's for my wife and a friend. Since its was my first time buying drinks thru the app I got a BOGO deal that saved me some cash! The only issue I had was it wasn't clear where I go to pick up the drinks. I order the drinks while at the cafe but didn't receive any notification or call outs that my drink was ready. It wasn't until I went up to the lady in the front that I realize my drinks were just sitting next to the cashier. It would be nice if there was a sign indicating to-go orders. read more

Amazing coffee, great food, lovely atmosphere! Too bad they aren't open in the morning when people really want their coffee before work. The only other option in the neighbourhood before 7am is the Timmies with a homeless shelter camp outside the front door, and blood smeared on the surfaces of the inside. read more

My friends and I came here during the Light Up Chinatown event in the summer! I tried the sweet milk cold brew simply out of curiosity. I liked the way you can see the layers in the cup :) It had a light sweet flavour (not too sweet), and it was the perfect refreshing drink for a hot day! I love how there are plenty of places to sit and I enjoyed the neutral calm decor while I chatted with my friends. Overall I think it's a very cute spot :) read more

Nice setting, decent coffee and treats. A bit expensive. Clean environment. Good service.

Now I've passed Dalina several times on Main Street & always thought of it as - just another coffee shop in Vancouver. I decided to pop in today & I was surprised. It's actually a Grocery, Kitchen & Coffee joint all rolled into one. I like the concept of what they're doing here! Great variety of selection amongst a pleasant setting - an uber chic cool place to hangout & work or have coffee. There are vegan & vegetarian options. Dalina sells a limited selection of groceries as well. Liquor is also available - cheers! The decor & design of Dalina is very impressive. Very clean cut relaxing joint - that is a break from the hustle and bustle of Main St. I was in the mood for a very light dinner - so I opted for a Moroccan salad that satisfied me tremendously. Chinatown continues to transform & keep up with the times while continuing to hold onto its strong history. read more

A very large coffee shop and small grocer all combined into one. I was a huge fan of their cafe space. The baristas behind the counter were oh so friendly and welcoming! I got a latte and a scone to go and both certainly lived up the expectations. The latte was just at the right temperature when made, not too hot and perfect for sipping. The scone was buttery and very tasty and went perfectly with my latte! Great place for coffee and to meet up with friends (when the pandemic is over). read more

I love coming here for lunch, my favourite: the Salmon Bisque and Cream of Mushroom!! I especially love the bread that's served with it, soooo perfectly grilled! Crispy and chewy and flavourful. I can eat a stack of them! Haha Staff are always very friendly here, nice and clean environment. I also tried the salmon soba lunch box - very good! Never been disappointed. Keep you light and energetic for afternoon's work. I started coming here when my coworker was obsessed and always wanted to come for lunch. Eventually I caught on and come pretty often :) Nice Change of pace in Chinatown. P.S. Patio seating is lovely! And they have a sparkling water tap! How cool is that!! read more

I tried the breakfast sandwich and a chicken wrap, as well as peach iced tea. Some decent parts, but the bad overwhelmed the good. The chicken, tortilla, and bread were quite nice. Where it falls apart was the spinach and eggs. The spinach, for some reason, was incredibly bitter, and the eggs tasted like they had sugar added to them. It was all quite overwhelming. I made sure to order sweetened peach iced tea, but it was also bitter. Disappointing, since I've been looking for a good peach iced tea here and haven't found one yet. read more

Great looking food. The banana bread I had was delicious and the coffee good. On the down side ... 8 staff and no table delivery??? Had to wait, and wait, and wait for my coffees at the counter. Saw multiple examples of people getting part of their order or the wrong things or stuff missing. A simple number system and done table service would help make this a much better experience read more

O-B-S-E-S-S-E-D. I'm such a fan of Dalina. Dalina is a small little grocery shop that sells fun, healthy products, plus a cafe serving up delicious, healthy treats. It's located in the heart of Chinatown, on the corner of Main and E. Georgia. So compared to a lot of the other shops and restaurants in the area, Dalina stands out as a bit more of a cleaner, hipster spot. When you walk in you're met with the cafe side first. I ordered myself a london fog, a small breakfast veggie frittata, and a bowl of the maple glazed sweet potatoes w/ lentils and pomegranates. I took a number and they said they'd deliver it to my table when everything was ready. Towards the back is the small market/shop. A small selection, but nonetheless fun and unique. There were quite a few seating options - a communal table towards the cafe and plenty of tables along the window. Along the grocery side, there are a few other smaller tables and window seating. My favourite part though? Their covered, heated patio. It was a cold, rainy day, but I opted to sit out here since it was empty and quiet. What a blessing in disguise! It was so cute and cozy out there. It felt like a little hidden oasis amidst the busy and rainy Main St. My food and drink came out quickly after I'd settled in. I was a big fan of the breakfast veggie frittata. For one small piece, it was very filling and tasty. Maybe it's because it had sweet potatoes in it. I'm not sure, but it was great. Speaking of sweet potatoes, my little bowl of those orange tots were SO good. The lentils and pomegranates were a surprising, yummy touch. I think I'm going to start adding pomegranates to a lot of my other salads from here on out. Dalina, you inspired me! This spot also serves cocktails, so if you're looking for a mid-day adult pick me up, this isn't a bad spot to come to. I will most definitely be back soon. Btw, thank you Dalina, for serving me the best london fog, I have tried so far. I was in earl grey heaven! read more

This place... is incredibly pricey, in my opinion. That is, when it comes to the actual food they serve for the price they sell it for. I find that the portions are very tiny and a little hard for me to justify buying. Even the goods from To Die For Foods is more expensive here than they are at the Juice Truck. Perhaps the charge comes with the fact that the location in itself is convenient and is aesthetically pleasing. The cafe is well-organized and would probably be a good place to study if you can find a seat. I've dropped by a few times and all the seats were pretty much taken: come early if you got stuff to do. The tables, if I remember correctly, are pretty small though. If you have a dozen textbooks with a MacBook in tow, I personally wouldn't recommend coming. There's a lot of options for you to choose from. They're not just a cafe so you can do some of your healthy grocery shopping and feel mighty good about it. They also put allergen labels on their food, and there's more than a handful of vegan options. Get the donuts from Dipped Donut Co. when they come in--they're as good as Cartems. Just be prepared to shell out some money. I'll come again when I got coins to spare. read more

Welcome to hipster heaven. Truly. If you take all the best grocery items from whole foods, and put them into a small corner store-slash-coffee shop, you've got yourself Dalina. We visited on a recent sunny Sunday about 11am and had no trouble ordering some teas and brunch items and grabbing a table in the back section. It was really private and quaint despite butting up to the last row of packaged grocery items. I adore the aesthetic and their focus on selling local food items. This is a great place to pick up some items for a picnic down before walking down to false creek. Sadly, I wasn't overly thrilled with the food we ordered, though my partner enjoyed both: 1st, we got the avocado toast with a poached egg on top; it comes flavoured with fermented leeks etc., which I found to be a bit overpowering and unnecessary. The toast, which they source from Fife (bonus points!) and the avocado could probably speak for themselves without the extra flavouring, but I'm just one opinion. 2nd, we got the Uovo Affogato (kale, prosciutto, poached eggs, and toast). Again, i wasn't a huge fan--this time because I thought they had way too much kale in the dish; made for an imbalanced dish (in my opinion). That being said, my partnered enjoyed both. There's no doubt we will be back to try more of what they make and to pick up groceries. They've done great with the space and it's an excellent spot to visit. read more

This area isn't exactly the best -- there was a beggar lady loitering outside for awhile -- but this place stays clean inside and out. It's a "hipster" place, and I mean that in a nice and good way! SPACE: There's an area for working and eating. Outlets are available too, but there isn't too much space... Although I think you'll always manage to find a seat. I was there on a Monday from 1pm to 6pm, and it was never too crowded. There is also an outdoor patio area that is covered and fenced in with tables and chairs if you'd like to enjoy the fresh air, but knowing the cold Vancouver weather, you might want to wait until spring or summer before sitting outside. GROCERIES: As many have already mentioned, there is a section at the back packed with goodies that you could buy, both frozen and non-frozen: dumplings, chips, drinks, bread, you name it! There are shopping baskets to use if you were to buy a lot of groceries. FOOD: They have a breakfast menu that runs til 11am. There are plenty of vegetarian options too. They didn't have many selections for me (being on a no onion, no garlic diet), BUT they were so accommodating and offered to make something for me. Didn't wanna be a hassle, so I just got a croissant sandwich, cheese herb scone, and a Jasmine tea. My croissant was edible, but it was burnt ... They probably forgot about my poor croissant as it took quite a long time for it to come. This is the only downside of my entire experience here. I think they'd give you another for free if you asked for that, but hey, I don't like to complain about or waste food, so I just took it. :) They are also very willing to top up on the hot water for my tea too! They checked up on me around two times? to see if I needed refills. The staff were busy at few times, so I went ahead to ask on my own, and they were super friendly about helping me. Also! I'm not sure if they do this often since it was my first time there, but we were given FREE SAMPLES of HOT CHOCOLATE to try out! It tasted really good too. :) ETC: Washrooms are available for use, but you have to ask for the keys. I didn't use it, but my friend said it was really nice. ;) There is a small basket to put wet umbrellas in, and no, my umbrella didn't get stolen for the entire 5 hours I was there. We really enjoyed the music that was played in here. It was kinda like indie, retro, funk -- there was a healthy mix of "popular songs" (i.e. Calvin Harris - "Feels") and stuff that you never hear before (there was a Spanish song in the playlist). Disclaimer: I'm not good with music haha, so maybe the "never hear before" part only pertains to me. :p There are multiple cute, tiny hooks outside to tie your pupper to if you need it. :D My friend commented on the hook's smallness, but I personally dunno if it's effective or not. Either way, it's cute and considerate for pet owners. :) They have this cute plant named Becky that they take care of in here too! -- although I think they change up the plants every so often. Plants require good care, so that says something about this place! read more

Chinatown has really stepped up their game. Went for a walk in the neighbourhood and stumbled across Dalina! Dalina is one of the most beautiful cafes I've been to in a while. High ceilings, clean white walls, sharp crisp accents and little dainty decorations. It also has a nice little outdoor patio with heat warmers and lights! So romantic. Not only is it a cafe but it's a kitchen and grocer! So much variety, I love it. I got a dark chocolate latte and it was super delicious! I love how they use real chocolate in their drinks. This is definitely a place that I'll be coming back to. read more

Every time I pass by Dalina I think "holy s***, that sounds like my last name - I have to go in". So after a few months of that, my friend and I finally had the opportunity to visit and sit down for a quick work session. Pleasantly surprised with the clean interiors, fresh flowers at the entrance, and the wide array of food and beverage options. Shop is spacious from the outdoor and indoor seating. While the staple fresh ingredients and healthy dishes gave me reasons to visit. Staff was helpful when it came to recommending a beverage, as I was overwhelmed with the choices. This concluded to an Iced Americano. Now, my decision to have one shot of espresso, is it suppose to make the coffee bland? As ours had no flavour whatsoever and tasted like water. I'm curious to know how much it really affected the taste. Although the coffee is currently a miss, I would definitely come back to give the rest of the menu a try. There's just something about Dalina I haven't discovered yet that I'm hoping to find out. Until then.. -E. DALIDA read more

Wonderful new coffee shop, kitchen, and smaller grocery store in Vancouver (Chinatown)! While I only got a cappuccino in passing, would strongly suggest this cafe as a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing place to sit down and relax. Structurally, there isn't a ton of space to sit, but they did use the space well - there are many outlets, to include USB connections - and comfortable seating. Free wifi is a nice addition as well! Would be a comfortable place to set up for the day and read a book or get some work done. The cappuccino was fantastic and they have many unique options to choose from. I also appreciate that they have still and sparkling water on tap! Was a very neat feature to have that available right from the wall! Next time I'm in Vancouver, I will definitely be back! read more

Didn't realize that this was a little grocery/tuck shop too! I didn't have the chance to try any of their dishes but has a cheddar scone which was really delicious and not overly dry. Wished they could've heat it up for me tho! I think this place is a little pricey but could be because a lot of their stuff are organic or "healthy". Loved the white decor and even tho there was limited seating, I believe it's enough since majority of the people will grab something quick to go. I had THE BEST bubbly guava drink there. Gotta find it and buy an entire case of it! read more

My go-to coffee shop / reading spot / snack spot / late night milk run / last minute gift pickup... the list goes on! Their salads are AMAZING. So filling, healthy, and delicious, with the simplest of ingredients. And at an amazing price point too! Their breakfast/ weekend brunch selections are definitely a treat. Great coffee of course. They are one of the few coffee shops that also serves wine and beer.. and cocktails apparently from the reviews below (I've been missing out ha!). The seating areas are really nice, lots of options both indoors and outdoors. I wish there more spots like Dalina in this city! read more

3.5 The interior is fancy spancy. It's clean, bright and inviting. They had a pretty good selection of nibbiles, which included sandwiches, croissants, tarts, and other baked goods. Personally I'm not a fan of Italian coffee. I prefer lightly roasted beans (Bows and Arrows, Matchstick, Stumptown) so I won't be coming here for coffee. I took a stroll through the grocery section of the store and they had some specialized things I've never seen before - Italian ketchup, Italian mayonnaise, and Italian flour just to name a few.

When they first opened they were awesome!! Service was brilliant, the snacks they had were good and honest and super convenient little market for this part of town. -1 Star: They had a staff turn around and their customer service has gone down (way down). - 1 Star: they changed their recipes for a lot of their snacks and they are not as good as before but more expansive. Their "niçoise" should be called "deconstructed tuna sandwich". It really has nothing to do with the delicious French salad. -1 Star: they have "allergens" notes at the bottom of their pastries (super cool and helpful). I got excited about 3 delicious looking creations. Gluten was not listed, and no flour at all was listed on the ingredient list. But, all three of them had gluten in them. Maybe a better labeling is in order? So for that... only two stars: 1. for the convenience of the little market 2. It's a nice little Internet café read more

The interior is nicely laid out, clean and modern. The front has a few seats, the counter of food and the back is a small grocery store with some healthy items and accessories. There is some produce in the fridge but I wouldn't rely on it to get your veggies. There are outlets around for you to plug in your laptop. The outlets also include usb ports so you can charge your phone too. The patio is covered so you can enjoy the weather and fresh air, and not worry about any sprinkle of rain, should it come. The staff is friendly and the sandwiches are good. The coffee is great, had a cappuccino. It was smooth and delicious. read more

$5 for a ham and cheese croissant seems excessive to me, but my husband thinks its the best thing version he's ever had. I on the other hand tried their butter croissant for $3 and it was just okay.

The little storefront at the back had a nice selection of curated specialty items. read more

I came here with a friend recently for a coffee which i end up getting a matcha latte. This place is like your upscale place for coffee, groceries and random items like local cards and candles. Its a really nice place but the price isnt exactly for everyone. I can see them using good quality material to make what they need to like sandwiches and coffee. But they are a bit pricey for my liking. I also understand why they need to price it at that. Overall, its a place to give it a try but not an everyday place i would come to. read more

Super cute little little Market/Cafe located right off lower Main. We were just walking by and decided to stop by and take a peak. The first half is the cafe that serves coffees and teas, premade salads and sandwiches, cheeses, olives and sides. All homemade and all looked really delicious. The back of the place is a market that has organic and specialty groceries. Gluten free products, vegetarian, and one of a kind foods. Prices aren't outrageous and the service was exceptionally friendly! Cute place and a great find! read more

I have been here three times since January and each time I go it's specifically for the Gianduiotto/hot chocolate with a shot of espresso. This cafe is a prime example of how gentrified of Chinatown has and is becoming. The clean lines and luxurious marbles, stainless steel appliances and fixtures takes this Bosa owned cafe to the next level. When I first saw this place I thought it was a knock off Dean and Delucca. After a few visits I can see this upscale space has really come into its own. There's a few racks of Italian grocery if you need to pick up a thing for two. Today in for lunch and ordered an Italiano sandwich. It cost me $10 and it was just an average sandwich nothing spectacular. There's about 5 lunch items including salads. Honestly, I don't think I will come back for lunch but I will pop in for for coffee and a treat. Also, I have to add that I love the soy, dairy, and almond milk faucets .. swank personified .. Definitely, next level. Overall: Pop in for the $5 hot chocolate , it's one of my favourites in the city. read more

Clean modern space in Chinatown. Parking is paid metered. There's a long communal table and window seats facing the street. We got the Sandwich with prosciutto, fig jam and Caramelized onions, a Brussels sprout salad, and an americano. Our friends got a delicious looking pasta salad with sausage . It is a little pricey for the food but everything else was moderately priced. I love the space and concept of a kitchen, grocery market , and coffee available all in one. There are also fresh flower bouquets by the entrance which makes a cheerful greeting. read more
