Not totally comfortable for long period but good for an hour or so. And you do want a quick turnover so more customers can dine in. I've been here a couple of times and it gets busier after 11 am. Quiet in the morning with most people having coffee to go. Service is great. They will bring your food and coffee to you when dining in which is unexpected. The flat white is ok, could do with more microfoam but it's good enough. The pastries are really nice. Get the croissant warm up for a better bite.

Such a gem in New West!…read more My partner and I just went here for coffee today and he ordered a cappuccino, while I got myself a matcha latte. Both drinks were made exceptionally well; impressively smooth, foamy, balanced, and clearly prepared with care rather than just being an afterthought. What really makes this place special is the atmosphere. The vibe feels genuinely inclusive and community-driven, with thoughtful touches like the pop-up bookstore featuring books on race, gender, and queer authors. It feels like a space built for connection, not just coffee. I also love how it transforms depending on the day. The daytime café energy is cozy and welcoming, while on select nights they stay open longer, serve alcohol, and host regular events like DJ nights, board game nights, and other community gatherings. It gives the space a lot of personality and makes it feel alive beyond the usual coffee shop experience. Definitely one of those places that feels more like a neighborhood hub than just a café. I'll be visiting a lot more soon!

What a hidden gem! I loved the matcha and the barista was so nice :) I was surprised to see that…read morethey have both matcha and hojicha on their menu. The matcha taste was not too strong and not the umami matcha but still good nonetheless. I got it with oat milk instead and there wasn't an up charge. It doesn't come with sweetener and u can taste the matcha without it much more but I added 2 pumps of sugar and found that it increased the oat milk taste too much. I would recommend 1-1.5 pumps of liquid sugar (the barista helped me put it in so just ask!). The inside of the cafe was quite cute and they even had a little clothing rack selling second hand items like clothes and shoes! The space is quite big and spacious and has seating at the back as well and washrooms.

The woman was especially warm and kind, and when I went outside to enjoy my coffee, the gentleman came out and chatted with me for a while. I was surprised to learn that the café has been operating for somewhere between 16 and 19 years. The panini I ordered was delicious, made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The owner told me that he even makes his own mayonnaise and prepares everything from scratch whenever possible. You can taste the care that goes into the food. This is the kind of small, independently owned café that is well worth supporting.

I've been a few times to Edible Arts in New Westminster, and it's been fairly good till recently…read more I had purchased some pastries and was told they had them in stock. When after payment was finished, they had said "Sorry, we are out of those." There was no option for re-payment, no offer of compensation, only the choice of a different selection and I wasn't given my receipt. The selection was very slim and there was confusion on quantities. I was told a choice of two to three other options, to which they only had one available (or so they said). They first tried offering the one in the display case that looked as if it had been sitting there for 1-2 weeks. That of course turned me off, and I asked what else they had in stock. They finally checked their smaller fridge/ freezer to find they had that "one" type they mentioned available, but only a few. While waiting at the front by the service desk/ display case I did see that they had a bunch of boxes of pastries in the far back fridge/ freezer. This is when another employee had opened it up to check quantities or retrieve something from inside. When observing, I noticed that they had exactly what I was looking to purchase, though the service employee didn't bother to check and continued to say they had none in stock. Personally I will not go back to this store location and I am familiar with the supplier of the pastries for that store. I will go directly to that supplier when they provide their open market in the Langley area. Also, the supplier sells them for about $1.00 lower than Edible Arts. They attend the Farmer's Market out by the Kwantlen Campus in Langley.

I noticed this place with an inviting sign from across the tracks. I decided to get a latte here before my show. I had some time to kill and frankly being inside a coffee shop inside the New Westminister station platform was more appealing than being inside a grumpy train cart. The customer service was awesome. The barista was extremely sociable and I spent 60 minutes shooting the sh*t with him on life, politics, life and money. I met an awesome family in there from Alberta who I chatted with. I initially came in here for a latte, however, stayed for a ham bisque and macaroons. Very reasonably priced, great products and they continue to offer more quality items and very awesome stuff. This unplanned detour made my day.

When I bought their ube flan cake, I was told to let it sit at room temperature for a bit before…read moreenjoying it, as the flan needs to come up to room temperature a bit first. However, they said it should likely be ready now. The first few bites were enjoyable although the ube flavor wasn't too distinct. The flan was tasty, smooth, and custardy. Unfortunately, as I got closer to the center of the dessert, I noticed that the flan was frozen. This must have been the reason why the sales associate told me to let the flan come up to room temperature firsr. Although they never explicitly told me it was frozen. I was really disappointed with finding it partially frozen. The dessert was on the pricier side, and so I'd expect that the ingredients used to be relatively freshly made. I will say that I bought this product at an event, so it's possible they sold out of their initial inventory and the frozen desserts were made as an emergency back up option. 3.5 stars

I heard good…read morethings about this cake shop and one of my exworkers told me she loved their ube cakes very much so I bought a slice of ube rival cake at 10.50. It was a bit pricey but I think it was worth it! It tasted very good. The purple part was the ube cake and in the middle it was the cashew or nutty flavour. I never had something like this. I might try their ube flan cake at $14.50 next time. The staff at the counter said flan would taste on a sweeter side. I think it would still taste good. The customer service was good. There are a few tables and chairs for people to dine in. I ordered takeout. They also have some special beverages. It's a very unique cake shop!
