We got the matcha and strawberry frappe and they were perfect for a hot day. We also tried some of the panini sandwiches. The ham and cheese one was a bit more plain, but the pesto one was delicious. Good size for a snack. I liked the amount of cheese they added. We waited about 15 minutes for our food and drinks to come out.

I tried the Honeycomb Peak with milk and my partner tried the Mudslide with a twist. We sat in the front and enjoyed the ice cream and different types- even trying each others! Mine was better (; he compared the Tim Tam crumbs to dehydrated cereal- It had a nice crunch! If you're looking for a casual, cute spot for an after dinner treat, you've come to the right spot!

Never had an ice cream that I didn't like. Love their soft serve and all the interesting toppings…read morethat they offer. There's a classic milk soft serve and another flavor which they can twist together with the classic milk. They seem to feature new flavors every month or so. I think I had seen from their Instagram page that they had an Ube soft serve back in April. Right now we're in early June and the flavor that we got for our twist was a cookie butter soft serve. Not sure how much longer they will have the cookie butter flavor as I had thought that it was supposed to be just for the month of May. So...I guess they don't always change the flavor right at the beginning of each month. They do change the flavors every so often though. I ordered the Green Forest which is supposed to have matcha powder, sweet red beans and condensed milk. They had run out of red beans when I went so they let met choose a different topping to replace the red beans. That actually suited me better anyways as I'm not a big fan of red beans. I chose the Green Forest for the matcha flavor in it, not the red bean! I ended up choose toasted coconut as a replacemenet for the red beans. Yum yum yum! My daughter chose the Brown Sugar Pearls option which came with brown sugar drizzle, and soft, chewy tapioca pearls. Hubby opted for the Mudslide which came with Tim Tam crumbs and chocolate syrup. I think the one thing I'd like to see at this place would be more flavors of soft serve to choose from. Having only two flavors makes things simpler for them I suppose. Happy enough with what they offer since they do have lots of interesting toppings to choose from, but...more flavors of soft serve would be cool to see. Parking: Pay parking on the street but the meter is free from 8pm. Service: Fair

I came here to try their lasagna but wrong day for that, they are serving something else on this day, unfortunately that special of the day is only up to 2;30 and I came almost 3 pm. Aside from lasagna I came for the famous milkshake. I ordered ham, cheese, tomato and lettuce sandwich plus the soup of the day bacon chowder, I wanted to try the tuna salad but again its done so the server ended up giving a quinoa salad for free. Busy place considering its covid-19 era so only 4 person inside the store at a time. Few seating inside, the café is very relaxing and for some reason I felt peace and very calm. The only noise you can hear inside were the sounds of returned bottle glasses for milk while people putting them on cases.... Interesting displays and interior designs, since its family owned I can tell that most of the displays in here were things they had when they were kids, nice stuffs very interesting .Those memorabilias made me smile, that feeling a heart truly appreciated. The sandwhich I had was okay,the soup was very good as well, hot and creamy, the quinoa salad is just okay for me its just ordinadry but not bad. Heres come something funny, I placed an order and clearly I wanted a strawberry milkshake, but what was serve was plain milkshake, I believed this was an honest mistake so I did not say anything, it was good though but maybe I ill be best if its strawberry. Wifi is free as well as parking and lots of them no worries. Service is warm and very friendly...kudos guys.... Not bad for group,family and kids. B careful if you are using a GPS coming here, wrong street and turn ....I don't know why?....... I will still come back here and bring some friends.. hope this time I will get the right milkshake.

Over the past year and a bit this has become one of our favourite breakfast places. But it is more…read morethan just a place for breakfast or brunch. It is also a fantastic spot to work if you wanna have a café setting because their pastries and bake goods are absolutely fantastic. In fact last year for Christmas, we bought one of their Christmas cake options which proved to be super popular with the family. What I love about this location is the decor. On one side it is a simple industrial warehouse. But it has that post modern feel with all of the live plants. The live plants is what I love and the tall ceiling for the plants to fully grow. Though if they are looking for something else, which could really bring this to the top, it would be to have a fish tank. A fish and or water feature around the massive plant island in the middle of the dinning area would be chefs kiss. Of course, what about the food? From here, I find the food here is excellent. Sometimes the flavour combinations are a little weird. But that's typical for the Vancouver foodie scene. Vancouver food scene is a fusion hybrid of local ingredients mixed with traditions from cultures from other places around the world. But the bottom line is the portions are a good size. The platters in particular are large and would feed a very hungry person. You definitely get your moneys worth. You don't get much table service once you are done with your order. But that is all right because of it size and volume for the amount of people who come through. I am totally happy with the self serve station, which could be enhanced and the large setting with all of the very mature plants. If I would offer advice to anyone it would be this. If you are going to be there on the weekend arrive before 9 AM. People start lining up at 10 to 15 minutes before the store officially opens. Plus I find is easier to take the street parking rather than playing with Faith trying to back out with customers who are not paying attention.

I did get a spoonful of the glorious whipped cream on top of my daughter's mango croissant. $8.50 Heaven. We thought it was worth every penny! The only gluten free item they offered on this day was a chocolate walnut brownie. Rich and pretty satisfying! We didn't mind a bit waiting for our specialty lattes but the flavors were underwhelming. Snow Velvet Latte $6.20 Double shot espresso, regular milk, vanilla syrup, velvet cream, cocoa dusting. My iced 16 ozs dark chocolate mocha was also not a memorable one. In spite of the unsatisfying lattes and lack of GF items, I'm still fond of the energy that fills in this cafe so I'll probably return.

Nearing the end, we only had icy snow and strawberry syrup without any fruit left. Mango cheese lava toast definitely saved the day. Had a warm, dense, and soft toast block covered with cubes of mango. The cheese paired so well with the warm toast too. The mango syrup glued everything together but was more jam-like than jelly-like which I really appreciated. Both had sweet cream ice cream on top which was nice as it added another creamy base while not clashing with the fruit. At $18.95 CAD for a toast, it is definitely a splurge but might be worth it.

My very first review for the year 2022…read more Small Dessert cafe along Kingsway,infront of Metrotown. Street metered parking and can be tough sometimes. Roughly can accomodate a dozen -15 patrons. 1 man show when we came and restaurant is half full already so orders are kinda late. Few interesting choices from the menu. I visited with 2 friends with me,we had the mango bingsu and the green tea lava cake. Reviewing a dessert is not really easy because most cafe offers thesame and all loaded with either sugar or cream so everthing taste good. Anyhow we ordered the full size,no drinks just water which we is not offered unless we asked for it hahahaha we need to flush those fructose from throat to gut. Service is customer oriented but only one person for everything so delays is expected. Neat place,simple decors,1 washroom all genders hahahaha. Pretty expensive in here but I gez everywhere a descent dessert can really be pricey. The mango Bingsu is so good,big chunks of mango and cheese on finely ice catchang.generous with milk,the lava bread is another dessert to die for,newly cooked bread with sugar iverload toppings,served in a very nice presentation. No single complaint we will actually planning to revisit so we can try more. Noise level is morethan average that is because of the three of us,we were laughing like there is no tomorrow hahahaha.. Accept cash,debit and credit cards. By the way the washroom needs some make over and frequent cleaning. Good for small group and best for kids and people who enjoy sugar overload. Good place for a Korean dessert Kudos!!

I especially enjoy their savory items for breakfast and lunch. It's a great place to buy Avalon products and it's refreshing to just get a snack such as a big scoop of ice cream or coffee with pastries items like an apple strudel and chocolate brownies while buying milk, eggs or yogurt etc. Their staff are friendly and would offer to warm up the foods so you can enjoy it on site, either at the dining area or outside on the benches. It's a convenient stop to buy dairy products - easy to park and return the Avalon glass bottles each trip. I also like that they carry specialty items like goat milk and mango kefir. The option to sit and dine in at Old Farmhouse Kitchen makes for a welcoming and cozy ambiance. Also, the cows are super cute at the entrance way and always makes me smile! 5 stars for being a happy place to pick up Avalon products and yummy foods :)

Overall, I'd recommended checking out for high quality dairy!

The cakes are still not that great to me. The latest cake I tried was the Dubai chocolate cake. If I eat it as just a chocolate cake, then it's good. As Dubai chocolate, it falls way short. It is lacking the kataifi (or knafeh) bits and I can barely taste the pistachio cream or tahini. The chocolate is probably overpowering the other flavors. Very pretty in presentation though. The blackforest cake is also lacking in the kirsch taste. I can barely taste it. Maybe I had a such a great tasting blackforest cake before that many places do not match up to it. Bottom line: just get the shortbread cookie. Get the cakes only if you're really craving it and this is the only place nearby for it.
