This review is for the hot chocolate special during the Hot Chocolate Festival. Nelson the Seagull is a cute, trendy looking cafe with an open kitchen and good seating. I came to try the "Feeling Salty" hot chocolate which is a peanut butter hot chocolate served with a peanut butter cup. I really liked the peanut butter cup as it was chocolatey and peanut-buttery and delicious! I didn't enjoy the hot chocolate however, as it tasted like hot chocolate water with a hint of peanut butter flavour. Seemed like it was really watered down, maybe 90% hot water? Hopefully they will tweak this recipe in the future. read more

I was on the hunt for avocado toast on a Sunday during our visit to Vancouver. I found Nelson the Seagull on Yelp and was impressed with their reviews, so we decided to give it a try. The cafe is adorable, I loved the minimalistic decor inside. Seating is a bit tough, they have a few large tables used as communal tables and some additional tables a bit smaller in size. We came during prime brunch time so tables were all taken. It didn't take us long to spot some guests leaving though, so we grabbed their table quickly. All of the bread is made in-house, so it's fresh! I ordered the avo toast and my husband got their picnic board. The food was absolutely delicious! My 2 pieces of toast were so large, I was shocked at the size. My husband's plate was impressive as well. They had the perfect assortment of cheese, fruit, meat, bread and some spreads. I'm craving more of their bread as I'm writing this! The service was great. So great that I randomly asked a worker if they happened to have a bandaid, I somehow cut my leg and thought I'd ask before I stopped by a store. Sure enough, she came by with a bandaid for me! Now that's some good customer service :) 5 stars for Nelson the Seagull! read more

Lovely spacious cafe and the best avocado toast. The PB&J was also delicious with the homemade jam. The prices were also reasonable for a big city. read more

I went there after a friend recommended it and do not regret it at all! First off, what a cute place! So welcoming and relaxing and the smell of fresh bread being baked I ordered avocado on bread and poached egg.... I could have eaten another 2 orders of this... soooo good! Had an Americano coffee and a walnut/chocolate/oatmeal cookie... I could have 5 more of those! I will definitely go visit again next time I am in town and try something else. read more

Came here on a rainy day. Did some research before I came, and I'm in love with this cafe. Adorable interior design and relaxing vibe are excellent for studying or hanging out. Ordered the carnivore sandwich with side soup-vegetable squash soup, LUV it!! The cilantro-pesto sauce on the sandwich adds an amazing taste to it. Definitely will be a regular here! read more

Nelson the Seagull in Gastown is a rustic bakery and coffee cafe that pays tributes to Nelson Mandela with a song, "The Seagull's Name Was Nelson". The song was played on the radio by his supporters to let him know they were thinking of him while being imprisoned. Since the song wasn't originally created for political reasons and didn't refer to Mandela directly, it was never banned. Once you step in, you'll see the original mosaic tiled floor of the Rainer hotel, and furnishing to reflect the building's age and architecture. Every table, including the main counter was built from scratch. Behind the counter there is a photo of young Nelson Mandela as a boxer. The cozy cafe was established by a group of 3 from South Africa, Lee Snelgar, Jodi Balfour and Jonathan Snelgar. The cafe offers handcrafted coffee drinks with locally roasted beans from Elysian and simple food done right. The espresso drinks are made with the Rancilo Manual Lever Commercial Espresso Machine. The food menu includes sour dough toasts, sandwiches, soup, picnic boards, fresh fruit, pastries and homemade ginger beer and lemonade. The sweet pastries are made with whatever fruits are in season and savoury pastries are made with seasonal farmer crops. The most popular item on Instagram is the avocado sourdough toast. The avocado frequently sells out by the early afternoon on weekends. Come early if you plan on ordering it! Nelson the Seagull occupies the first floor of a heritage building, Rainier Hotel, purchased by the province of British Columbia. The upper floor is used for social housing. The spot is a huge room converted to a space that feels like a home living room welcoming people to break bread. It is a very very open space for working, reading, meeting and eating with friends. We noticed many families walk in and leave when they don't see a table just for them.. You'll need to get use to communal tables here. We often join a table that seats 4 with 2 people already sitting there. We think this is great to foster dialogue over coffee and bread. Coming here just for the sourdough bread is worth it. The avocado is always fresh green colour when we go. The popularity of the avocado toast results in them running out for the day often which leaves us in disappointment. Always come early if you want to eat this. Although the space is large, finding a seat can be challenging on weekends. Seating is first come first serve. Depending on your luck, you may need to wait for a table. The team created an incredible bakery & cafe, unfortunately they still need to work on their customer service and not running out of avocado often. If there are any dishes or drinks you love at Nelson The Seagull and think we should try it next time, feel free to contact us! read more

Nice enough place and I've enjoyed everything I've eaten, but it is so overpriced and time consuming. I would never use it for a quick takeout option again. I waited 20 minutes for a salmon sandwich. Tiny portion for $13. 6 members of staff and 20 minutes! Just no organisation. So slow. read more

Dear Nelson the Seagull or maybe should I say "Nelson the Spider" because the truth is that you are full of spiders everywhere, Do you happen to clean yourself sometimes? A dead spider fell from your ceiling to land onto my fresh loaf of bread, luckily wrapped in a paper bag. The window next to me had a giant spiderweb on its handle and it was certainly not the only one visible in your space. Your floor is also really dirty you know. And what to say about your bathroom? Maybe you didn't notice but your white toilet seat is actually half brown right now. I'm sorry to say that you are dirtier than last time I visited you and I honestly didn't think it was possible. All that makes me really worry about the cleanness of your kitchen and seriously wonder about your food hygiene. Going back? No and that breaks my heart. read more

I happened upon this cafe while waiting to go to the Chinese garden. I came to visit Vancouver fromMontreal and I have had lots of delicious coffee and croissants but I was really delighted with the overall quality from this little cafe. Also, I love the late Victorian structure of the retail space. They sell Modus-Coast coffee from Guatemala which has just the nicest cherry undertone which I loved. And the chocolate croissant was perfectly crunchy and soft. Overall, really winning. I didn't try any of the other food though. read more

Definitely in the top two bread shops in the city in my humble option. Nelson is a hipster joint in the heart of gastown, with a variety of both indoor and outdoor seating. All sorts of people are there on a Saturday morning, from parents and children, to studios laptop users, to beautiful couples. Nelson bakes one type of sourdough bread, and are thoughtful in their multiple presentations. Today we went for the avocado toast+roast beef and toast and jam. The blueberry jam was awesome and was served with plentiful (though the right amount of) butter. Though the bread is sliced relatively thin, the food toppings are ample. Personally, I'd prefer a thicker slice of bread and for the toast not to be so toasted (next time I'll ask for it this way). We also had a half loaf of sourdough sliced, which we took home to enjoy. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

I love the atmosphere here, very rustic, and welcoming. Great place to sit, enjoy coffee, breakfast, and the smell of freshly baked bread. There are outlets around the cafe which makes it easy to plug in your devices. One down side would be the furniture, love the vintage quality of the furniture however some of the chairs and tables are not stable and may rock. Overall I would definitely come back again and try the the avocado toast everyone is ordering read more

The bad news is that almost everything went wrong with this business experience. The good news is that there's much area for improvement. Here's what I experienced: 1. We arrive a little after the normal lunch hour rush only to find the only menu item they were serving was salad. No sandwiches, soups ... just two different salads. 2. "Perhaps I'll get one of their yummy zucchini cupcakes," I thought to myself. But then I noticed small bugs and gnats all over the various pastries. 3. Ugh. The bugs probably had a lot to do with the doors propped wide open. I understand Vancouver has great weather, but there has to be some sort of health code violation leaving doors open like that for bugs to make their way onto uncovered food. 4. The biz was also HOT. Again, Vancouver has great weather, but when the weather is unseasonably warm, they should provide fans or a portable AC unit to keep customers comfortable - and keep the doors closed. 5. My colleague had a filthy fork and a filthy restroom experience. We left the business extremely disgusted. Hopefully they'll clean up their act, because apparently it's a cool hipster coffee house to set up shop with their free wi-fi and interesting choice of music. read more

I was just enchanted by Nelson the Seagull. This is another one of those spots that feels like it just can't be in Vancouver. It's too well-designed, too vegan-friendly, too organic, too cool. Vancouver can't really have spaces like this, can it? Isn't everything homogenous and made of money? But no, it's true. You, too, can have a housemade almond milk latte and avocado on toast with Earth Balance and fresh in-house grown cilantro and feel like you're in San Francisco or something. Or Europe. Maybe it feels like Europe. What an amazing use of space. I am truly impressed by this place. Nothing bad to say. read more

I may be in the minority on this one, but my Nelson experience was less than stellar. And I really wanted to like this place - I've waited to try it since my last trip to Vancouver about a year ago. The ambience is great and the decor is totally my style, but the food was lackluster and the coffee was even worse. Coffee: My almond milk latte ( kudos for the almond milk) was pretty awful. Espresso tasted burnt, and we all know that no amount of sugar can make that better. I had to get a Blenz right after. I tried Mr. T's almond milk mocha, which was better (hello globs of chocolate) but still tasted "off." Sandwich: it was OK, and it was expensive. I had the Poached eggs on toast ($8) with mushrooms (+ $2) and avocado (+ $1). I was thrown off since I expected to receive my add-ons on the toast as well, but they came on the side, which made the eating experience less enjoyable. Also, bread was not toasted, so it was chewy (although it was good bread). Eggs were perfect, no complaints there. Mushrooms were well-seasoned and avocado was fresh, but I could not get past the presentation. Also, $2 for 4 or 5 sliced mushrooms? Cookie: I'll put it this way: in Portland, I once had a gluten-free vegan cookie that tasted like dirt; this was worse. I spent about $25 on the sandwich, two coffees and the cookie. Service was spotty, room was dark, and nothing really stood out for me. Probably will not return in the near future. read more

I think I am in love! Every time I come in for a pour over there is a new roast/variety of beans to try! These guys know how to make a great cup of coffee. Coffee is made fresh to order in individual servings and NEVER from an urn! Staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the beans they're brewing. I have yet to try their food though... I must fix that soon! I have however tried their pastries, my favorite is the egg and prosciutto ham tart simply seasoned with salt and pepper. read more

Love the bright open space and how it looks like it's been around for awhile if you forget about the faint smell of fresh paints. No pastries today because the pastry chef is sick.. That's okay. My latte is excellent, and the cup is very unique too. Service is very friendly, not pretentious at all. It does have the hipster vibe - but nothing unbearable. The location is a bit funny to walk to from dt.. But this place attracts many for its quality. read more

COOKIE REVIEW I came here on the recommendation of a doctor in the area telling me they had the best cookies. I was sceptical because... I eat a lot of cookies so I deem myself a connoisseur. Chocolate chunk macadamia nut oatmeal cookie: I love all 3 types of cookies individually but together they were sooo bomb. It was fresh out of the oven. Warm. Ooey. Tasted like the best type of lovely homemade cookie one could ask for. I have yet to try their food but I'd come back for the cookie. If I had to think of a complaint, it's that $3 for a bookie is a bit steep but I enjoyed it. read more

Needing to kill time, needing some hot java, looking for a new place, going with the hype of the times. That is exactly the steps I took to coming to this place, and I was let down not by the place and setting, but by the main reason I came here, for the brew. My partner and I ventured into this domain prior to dinner hoping to relax to a good quality cup of brew. It was a dark night, and not much light was eminating from the interior outward to the street here in Gastown. Walking in, the place was in a term 'rustic', a feel of the Gastown of yesteryear that definitely gave this place character. We noticed the beans they used for this joint were from Rocanini's, so there is another step in the right direction of good java. This place was spacious, when you walk inside it just feels big. An open concept with a few small tables, a huge long table in the middle, and fresh baking bread in the back, but as I said, our main purpose of this visit was for a drink. An order of a latte, and a (double shot) expresso. I could swear that the place was pretty quiet, and the one taking our order made me a single shot, at least he only charged for the single shot. We sat on the main table, on some heavy cement based stools and took in our drinks. I can say that it doesn't matter how 'cool' the place looks, cause you are not living here, and you are, in the end, paying for something that goes down your throat, and it was the most 'sour' expresso I have ever had. I have had lemon's not as sour as this sucker, and adding sugar just made it worse. My partner's latte wasn't too charming either. In some ways I felt like I walked into a movie after watching a good trailer. I read all the great reviews here, and had it bookmarked to hit, and in the end I was let down. One odd saving grace of this place is the washroom, (you are probably saying, really?), as this place totally felt different from the main room. Well lit, nice hard wood floors, and sense of charm, go check it out for yourself if you are here. Would I come back, maybe, but you know what they say about first impressions! read more

Nelson the Seagull is Gastown's fresh new face on the block. 3 owners that all bring their passion for the business to the table with a lot of love on the side. Bright Gastown(esce) room with an open kitchen that is very interactive and fun to watch. They did a great job at creating an engaging, comfortable space that respects its' heritage origins in a sophisticated but bohemian way. Jonathan worked at Agro Cafe prior to opening N the S and knows his coffee beans. The food is all homemade with a picnic focus - homemade bread with meats and cheeses, poached egg on bread, lemon tarts, banana, zucchini muffins ... Overall great space with the only downside being getting a seat to eat in and hours of operation. Being owner operated and doing all their own production, they tend to open later than Milano or Coffeebar and are closed on Sundays. read more

Well, it appears that a particular barista is a key component to the success of this cafe! I sure hope she is being paid well because her absence had a clear impact on my unfortunate visit. Stopped in for a drink of the divine Rocanini roast they have now, but they were out of Almond which they usually make in house. I found it lame that they didn't at least have a back up of some other milk substitute on hand, or even offer to get some. No milk substitute = no Cappucino for moi. So I downsized my order to a cup of drip, which was bitter and undrinkable. Boo. They also seemed disorganized and with really no apology. Not sure if I will be back anytime soon. read more

Honestly love this place! This is my second time coming to Nelson the Seagull, and my second time ordering the picnic platter. For two people to share and chat over coffee, this is perfect. The sourdough bread is amazing (freshly baked) and so are spreads (hummus, mango, pesto-tasting), cheese and meat! Super reasonably priced too. This place is perfect for when you want to study (besides the fact that it closes early). There are big wide tables everywhere and plugs too. I'd recommend it, just for the sourdough bread and avocado toast! read more

I finally made it to this hip, new Gastown coffee shop. The inside feels more like an artist's open space or commune with its hipster, trendy charm of a New York street cafe. With no doors, and everything open, it's a refreshing place to grab coffee or breakfast. The menu is basic and straightforward. The tiny counter sits more like a flea market till except with an iPad to take orders. I ordered a macchiato with my poached eggs on ciabatta bread with avocado. It was strangely standard yet deliciously hearty and refreshing. I ate it up. The macchiato was quite strong and did the trick in between egg and avocado bites off my ciabatta. It was such a warm, open environment to eat in. Nelson is beyond charming. A little out of the way, I'll use any excuse to come back for a coffee or snack. If you're ever in the area, do yourself a favour and drop by this unique cafe. read more

This is the place for an escape, I can sit there, watch people work, pretend to be an artist or writer, and enjoy good vibe and the aroma of 'out of the oven' goods. The advantage of open kitchen :) They serve local roast coffee from Elysian, sandwiches with bread made in the open kitchen. Lots of window space, a number of tables for small groups and communal table to make new friends. Parking might be a problem if you must park right outside, but it's petty easy compared to rest of downtown. Free wifi :) read more

Disclaimer: It's been a while since I've been here but boy-o-boy do I have fond memories of this place. The baked goods are made in the kitchen that's open for everyone in the cafe to see. The coffee's good, the space feels like an old timey apothecary. A couple of years back (2011, when they first opened-ish) I remember that this was one of the first places where I saw an ipad replace the conventional till. I definitely remember geeking out over this. So in short: this place was awesome, and if it's anything like it was then it's a must-go-to-cafe for everyone passing through the downtown eastside. read more

My happy avo-toast place and book+coffee go-to Their coffee is really good (I am not sure of roasters) but it's fruity, the way I like it. Avocado toast is as simple as it can be, but their sourdough is to die for - freshly baked every day! Moreover they are generous enough to use WHOLE avocado, not thin-sliced half and never-ever it had dark dots. Staff is very reversed, not chatty and I actually like it read more

PROS + Picnic board is a must + Fresh ingredients + Spacious + Good for brunch/lunch CONS - Sketchy areas close by - Not many food options RATING Food 3.5/5.0 Ambience 3.5/5.0 Service 4.0/5.0 Price $ While my friend and I were waiting for our foodies come for dinner at Malt and Marrow, we were looking for a cafe in downtown to munch on some snacks. My friend wanted to have a Nelson the Seagull's Picnic Board so we walked down there. The place was spacious with the bright sunshine coming through the windows. Even though they didn't have an extensive menu, it seemed like every food item they had was was worth trying out. Because we were going to have dinner in 2 hours, we only had a PICNIC BOARD ($15) which was like a DIY sandwich platter. A selection of sandwich ingredients on the wooden board included some bread slices, hummus, chutney (a mixture of spices, apples and dried fruits), pesto, swiss cheese, walnuts, corned beef, cucumbers, tomatoes, artichoke, avocado and strawberry. I liked how I could make several different sandwiches by using a variety of ingredients they provided. I simply put some veggies and spreads on a slice of breads and enjoyed them a lot. My favourite combination would be avocado, swiss cheese, corn beef, pesto and hummus. This place can be perfect for enjoying your breakfast/brunch/lunch or maybe for someone who needs to work on their stuff on computer as I saw many people doing it. Come out on a sunny day and enjoy the sunshine while eating good food! read more

I made a point of having breakfast at Nelson the Seagull on my recent trip to Vancouver. The place was recommended to me by several different people and it ended up being one of my favorite places. I am only sorry I did not have enough time to go back for lunch as I've heard their homemade hummus is amazing. I had the Nelson's Toasted Muesli with almond milk, honey and agave and a Coconut almond friend. The coconut almond friend was light and delicious and not overly sweet. The muesli was nice, but I unfortunately drowned it in too much honey and it ended up being too sweet for my taste. I love the fact they make their own almond milk in-house as it was really tasty. The space is open and airy and has a retro look, feel and vibe. Everything, including all the baked goods in the glass case, is made in house in the open kitchen. It's a unique spot that I would highly recommend to locals and visitors alike. read more

Food was good and bread is awesome, but Jesus gawd, clean your floors. It's actually quite off-putting. I hope this isn't a reflection of how well you clean the kitchen but I see no reason why it wouldn't be. I am highly suspect of the overall cleanliness of this venue. I don't take pleasure in saying that. I simply hope they up their maintenance game. It is unsanitary enough to have me question returning. Also, your plant in the clay pot is dead. That makes me sad. read more

Absolutely THE BEST avocado toast i've ever had. I can't even explain, but, you have to go here and try the avo toast you will not be disappointed.

Wish I didn't live in Arizona because i would eat here as often as possible! read more

Avocado toast! What's not to love? And coffee? Nelson the Seagull has become a regular spot for americanos, breakfast, lunch and for meetings with colleagues. The decor is simple and eclectic with curious touches (large framed image of Joe Lewis, ornamental Jesus), and a tiled floor worn to perfection. The food feels healthy and fresh. Bread is prepared and baked in full view, the kitchen sits slightly elevated. Service is typical of most Vancouver restaurants, tight, unsmiling, polite but not friendly with one notable exception, Emi who works cash Tuesday to Saturday. She's wonderful, greets me with a smile and remembers my name. Avocado, sourdough toast perfection and Emi's thoughtfulness keeps me coming back. read more

I am not sure who Nelson the Seagull is, however, I sure would like to meet him as he's done a fine job with this place. This was a complete accidental find for me in a hood that I am not too familiar with. I came here for a sandwich made with in house bread. Simple ingredients that were fresh. I was filled up and although meat and cheese isn't the healthiest of combos (calorie wise) but I still felt good eating quality ingredients. The bread was a little tough to bite into based on the type of bread, therefore, this isn't great for sandwiches. It made my sandwich a little frustrating to eat. The customer service was awesome and the prices are fair market. There is a lot of space, however, not enough seats. There is a community table but the stolls are hard to sit on. read more

Came here with my siblings and because it's in downtown, parking was ridiculously chaotic. There are maybe 3 parking spots in front of the store that is usually always full. It's all street parking too. It's quite dark inside, and if you want photos, definitely try to grab a seat by the windows in the front. The girl at the counter was very helpful, although she forgot to ask for my name so when the sandwich came out they were walking searching for who ordered it. What I ordered: carnivore sandwich and a latte. I can't remember the price, but it was almost $20 for just those two items. The carnivore sandwich was really good, but the sour dough bread's crust was super super hard. It was so hard it actually hurt the roof of our mouth. So it took a lot of effort to chew. Would I come back? Most likely not. Once is enough for me. read more

I had one of the best avo toasts here! It was very simple, but the thinly cut sourdough bread with a layer of perfectly ripe avo and a bit of salt and pepper on top was a taste of heaven. The coffee was very good as well. I had a flat white, which reminded me of how the cafes in Australia make it. My only peice of feedback is that the tables don't get cleared up and wiped off as needed. It's mostly self-serve, so I assume people are not bringing their empty plates back to the counter or the staff are too busy to notice sometimes. read more
