I've also picked up a redbean butter salt bread here to share too. Tasty bread! Needless to say, redbean and butter are both definitely apparent; they really load it on, including maybe $2 worth in the butter slab itself. I've realized I'm not the target customer to order a STICK OF BUTTER with my breads. Big props for being so generous though, I'm sure the butter lovers would kill for it. With their popularity and coziness, they do unfortunately have a laptop time limit if you planned to do some work or studying here. I'd definitely want to come back for a chill catch-up with a friend and try their other salt breads :)

Congrats on opening this place is amazing!…read more I loved the specialty lattes, they are perfection. Not too sweet a great balance between coffee and cream. I loved the cream latte. The Spanish latte was also nice. The Dubai strawberry is a MUST! So delicious which is probably why there is a limit to how many can be purchased. This would be a nice place to sit down, drink some coffee, and get some work done.

This past weekend we discovered To Live For and went twice during our short stay in BC. The croissants were FAR BETTER than those in Paris which is pretty wonderful as the distance is much closer for us!!! In Paris, we had vegan pastries many of our days there and afterwards, my hands were so oily....not at To Live For. After the delicious and crunchy croissant was devoured, my hands were dry. WAY TO GO CANADA!

The cake was very cute looking and i absolutely loved the pink and white color scheme. I forgot to take a picture of the slice but it had alternating layers of the sponge and white buttercream. I'm normally not a fan of whipping cream but their buttercream was definitely delicious. With that said, at $75 for a 6" cake, i thought the price was a bit hefty.

The interior is pretty neat. They have seats made out of parts of cars, and even the front counter is half of an old school SL. Lots of classic car parts on the walls. Staff are friendly and chatty. No problems there. The coffee selection is pretty decent. They also have cold (sweet) drinks. I had the V12 latte. They put a neat little teddy bear in the foam. Would've been cooler if they put a MB logo instead, but all good. The only complaint is that the car themed couches and regular couches are at different heights. So my friend and I were looking up and down at each other. Wouldn't mind coming back to enjoy the car themed ambience and maybe try a pastry.

Quiet coffee shop randomly located in the middle of a residental neighbourhood…read more Parking is plentiful in the area. The venue is quite small. Maybe 10 seats at most. There is also a E facing table and patio umbrella outside, but it wasn't set up during this rainy season. The room is quite stuffy (lack of ventilation), so they had the door propped open. This place is quite cramped. Staff are friendly. I think they're Korean. Coffee here is pretty decent. No complaints. Didn't try the food. Place might be worth coming by alone or maybe in a group of 2 at most. Otherwise I would highly recommend takeout.

It was kind of chilly inside because they had the door propped open despite it being cold out, but I can imagine it might have been stuffy for the staff in the kitchen area. The barista was very nice! I got the Sooyo croissant, an egg tart, and a milk tea. I loved the Sooyo croissant - I'm weak to the brie/fig combo and this had just the right balance of all the ingredients on a warm and soft croissant. The egg tart was also really nice with a hint of cinnamon. It was bite-sized which was good for a small treat. I also loved the milk tea. It was very strong, and the brown sugar syrup enhanced the flavour! It was worth the trip for me for a relaxing snack stop!

Both their matcha latte and cappuccino were yum! Service was good; the lovely guy at the front counter helped us figure out what to order; that was appreciated. The place was buzzing with chatter and happiness. So cool!

I have been this cafe for many times, and recently dropped by to get some baking goods. What I got - Hazelnut supreme croissant and cheesy bite(cheese pull apart). Hazelnut supreme's hazelnut cream was sweet, so good. Dough could have been a bit more crispy outside. Some parts of croissant was a bit soggy. Cheese bite(pull apart) was the best pull apart I have ever had. Size was large, decent price and cheese flavor was strong. Dough was crispy outside and inside was so soft and buttery. So delicious! Highly recommend this item! Overall, I always love this cafe. I will visit here to get new item next time.

This place closed down for awhile and then reopened. This was our first visit back since they…read morereopened. Gotta be honest, it's not as good as it used to be. The menu has shrunk considerably and their business days/hours are also a lot less than what it was previously. The drinks were not as tasty as they used to be. My Blue Rose drink was the best of the bunch and I would say even that was just OK. I enjoyed the Lychee jelly in my drink. That was probably the best part of the drink. The liquid part was kinda "meh" for me. I think the best thing we ordered was the matcha soft serve ice cream. On the flip side, there was a guy playing piano there and they were taking requests. I suggested Demon Slayer and the guy played the famous "Gurenge" song by Lisa from season one of Demon Slayer. That was kinda cool. He was a very good pianist. Great way to liven the atmosphere. Also, there was a guy who came around and gave us all tiny paper cranes. It's nothing much, but still always nice to be gifted with anything at all. Business must be hard for them. It would sure be nice to see them return to how they used to be, with a bigger menu, tastier drinks and more days/hours again. We love this place for the manga/ anime vibes that it exudes, and love the Matcha soft serve ice cream they sell here. Really wanna give this place a higher rating but the drinks were really not up to par this time, and as much as we love the Matcha ice cream, it is not by itself enough to warrant giving out a higher rating. If they could just improve the quality of their drinks again...then even if they menu remains limited, at least if everything they serve is of good quality...that would be enough to merit a higher rating.

I was glad to visit on a Sunday morning while taking a walk with my boyfriend in his neighbourhood. When we arrived, it was quite busy. The coffee shop is small, but charming with limited seating available. The menu mainly contains basic coffee shop items as well as a variety of baked goods. We ordered an iced specialty coffee with ice cream and a small latte. I also chose the Tiramisu danish and we nibbled on it while waiting for our coffee. The danish was suggested by the cashier as one of the more popular items. She was completely right, because this baked treat was heavenly. The outside was like a croissant, flakey and buttery and paired with a delicious tiramisu custard on the inside. We also grabbed a scone for our walk home (which turned out to be delicious as well). The shop also sells local artisanal goods such as chocolate, sauces, and even loaves of bread. It's nice to gander around while waiting for your order. We enjoyed our coffee on the walk back home. The coffee is quite strong, which would be optimal for most coffee lovers. The flavour was deep and chocolate-y, but not bitter at all. I read on their site that they regularly rotate their bean selection. I would love to return to try more of their food items!

The tiramisu croissant ($6) was somehow dry yet soggy at the same time, thanks to the filling inside. The cheddar and chive scone ($5) was bland despite its name, and missing the soft, moist inside and crisp, crumbly outside a good scone should have. On the plus side, the barista brought the coffee to our table, which was a nice touch. The place is always busy, with limited seating both inside and out, so you might need to wait to get a seat or do takeout.
