    Muffin granny Granville island
    L C.

    Another long time favourite at Granville Island public market that was a disappointment. This food court vendor has been here for at least 30 years. Known for their crepes, scones (they call them scrumpets), muffins and cookies. In the past we would order their carrot cake and morning glory muffins,which are excellent. Occasionally the scones, which are ok but nothing great. They do offer to toast the scones, with butter and jam (they charge for jam) which seem to make them more flavourful. The muffins and scones are large so it seems the prices are good based on size. Today I had a blueberry scone which had absolutely zero flavour. All you could taste is flour. My companion had a muffin, which was ok, he recommended I toss the scone and order from another vendor after tasting it. There are quite a few servers, mostly back of house or making crepes. Service was adequate but slow as only one person was running cash, toasting and making coffee/tea. Would not order the scrumpets again. Muffins or crepes are a safer bet.

    This cute little counter bakery is located inside the Granville Island Market. I was initially drawn to Muffin Granny because of the "People Love Us on Yelp" sticker, so I knew I had to check them out! I ordered an almond cookie, and it was so so good! Very buttery, just the right amount of crunch with the almonds, potent almond flavor, not too sweet, and soft and chewy in the middle. If you're into almond flavor like myself, make sure to do yourself a favor and order this! I would've tried more baked goods if I were still a bit hungry, but I had walked by when we were already about to leave Granville. Everything else looked pretty good though. I gave it 4 stars because the lady at the counter didn't really seem to be eager to help at all and just kind of awkwardly stood there as I looked at the display case, no greeting or anything, until I decided for myself to just try the almond cookie.

    Pear and brown sugar crepe. Bland and tender crisp pears.

    One of many longtime merchants inside the famous public market. I came for a light snack. This was their special of the day. I was expecting softer pears and more cinnamon spice. It was well stuffed with pear but a little bland.

    Was walking around the food court at Granville Island Public Market and saw them making fresh crepes to order so we had to get one. We decided to get a savory crepe and opted for the ham & cheese crepe, it was pretty good, nice thin crepe, tasty ham and melty cheese. Nothing super special about the crepe but it held us over for a bit until we hit up another food stall later. A lot of bakery selections to choose from and they all looked real good. Coffee is served as well but it was pretty warm that day so I didnt feel like one. This place is in a food court setting so seating is whereever in the middle or outside. Staff was friendly but our interaction was pretty brief. Overall, a pretty good stop to come by when looking for an option in a food court.

    This humble food stand in the Granville Island Public Market makes some pretty good crepes. You can have them in both sweet and savoury varieties, watch them being made on the hot disks behind the counter, and they're cheaper than Cafe Crepe, too. The stand is down near the end of the food fair hall, near the big atrium with the two levels of seating. It is also near the big "back porch" of the market, where you can eat al fresco, but mind the seagulls. They're ruthless! For about $6 we got a sweet crepe stuffed with strawberries and topped with loads of whipped creme. The presentation is simple, but when I'm that hungry, I don't care. However, I do get all eco-guilty about the styrofoam plates and plastic forks, but that's take-out for you. It was a delicious crepe, light and filling, the perfect afternoon snack.

    Wow the look of the pastries are awesome but the taste is not the same. Was very disappointed. There was a line not many about 3-4 people before me. Bought quit a lot, all possible flavors of scones, two different types of mini loafs. I think it was buy 5 items and get one free. I end up with eight or nine delicious looking pastries. Mini loafs were average, scones are disappointment. I don't know if they have tasted better if I have asked them to heat and butter them up. They offered I denied. I wouldn't order them again maybe mini loafs. Girls at the counter were super helpful and patient while I was picking my purchases. Locals have suggested to try this place out do not know why.

    Dry scones that taste like baking soda for an inflated price. I could've baked them much better. No thanks.

    Espresso flight? I've had a margarita flight, enjoyed a wine flight but not an espresso flight…read more NOW that got my attention! Since downtown Vancouver is a busy city but has a fairly good public transit system, we took the sky train to this popular coffee shop. After I asked a question to the friendly staff, I ordered and received my order number. Thank goodness the suite next door offered tables and seating because it would have been quite a balancing act to enjoy a four espresso tasting without a table. The barista noticed my disappointment when he told me that they only have two espresso varieties for my four taster flight and he offered to add milk to two of them so I can taste the pure shots and mini cappuccinos. This was a thoughtful gesture! One of my daughter's ordered a latte and lemon cream bakery good. I tasted the Monogram Calgary a Colombia/Guatemala blend and Dak Amsterdam from Ethiopia. I tasted a bit of rose and mango in the Monogram like they said but the lemon meringue was absent. I got the fruit and berry hints after having the Dak Amsterdam but little white chocolate. Both blends were very STRONG and I preferred them with a little steamed milk, which softened the intensity without taking away the flavor. A very nice coffee tasting experience for just $10 CAD.

For someone like myself who prefers Cortado/Macchiato small milk espresso drinks, it was "good" but it truly looked like heaven for the pourover crowd. My Cortado was tasty but a bit "thin" for my thicker, more viscous texture preferences. Very warm/comfy vibes and a nice place to hang out and wake up in the morning. Located in Gastown and roughly a block away from the Steam Clock for what it's worth. Enjoy!

Their menu seems to rotate seasonally, so you might find limited-time or specialty flavors depending on when you visit. As for the drinks, they were just okay in my opinion. The flat white was quite strong, and while it included Earl Grey syrup, the flavor didn't come through as clearly as expected. The Pastéis de Nata was decent -- not too sweet, but a bit dense.

The way they do the frozen matcha is amazing. Truly epic.

I thought this sandwich would be too heavy, but the brioche bun is light and the scrambled eggs are really fluffy. The Avo Sandwich - a lighter sandwich featuring fried egg, avocado, cheddar cheese, sun dried tomato pesto, tarragon aioli and mixed greens. Also a good choice! The cafe was clean and they have a water dispenser available for customers. Service was ok, but I think they were just a bit busy.
