I like this place because it's cozy. They even have comfortable chairs by the window where u can read a book and relax. It's right next to the entrance towards the food court. They have selections of pastries and their coffee, I always drink it black, taste good with no strong after taste. I was on my way to the Christmas market next door but I decided to spend time here to work. I ordered the Apple Crumble. It's crunchy, doesn't taste like it's been sitting in the display case for days, or weeks. Sweetness is neutralized perfectly by the bitterness of the black coffee. They have 12oz as their regular size. I had to say that because I noticed that some places now are just serving 8oz, which is too small, then I don't have any choice but to order the larger size 16 oz. 12 oz is my sweet spot. The place has always been clean. They have a nice, long bar type table in the middle. Ambient music is just right. Perfect to have conversations while enjoying your coffee. The place is bright, not depressing. Service is fast and baristas are polite. For parking though, you have to park in one of those paid ones. Cuz this is a tourist spot so they regulate it. Overall, this is one of my favorite places to have coffee in.

Blue matcha latte with almond milk and honey

Super cute cafe in Lonsdale quay. Felt very chill and rustic... almost small town/island vibe and I absolutely loved it. I tried the blue matcha latte with almond milk and honey. Very delicious and unique flavour. The service was wonderful as well.

Stopped by on our way to the shipyards Christmas market. A quick coffee, service was warm and prompt. Condiment center was well appointed. For me, the Americano was a touch too bitter, but the coffee was weak. I probably would not return, even thought the service staff was great.

Coffee shop by Lonsdale Quay. Parking is quite awful around here. Look in the area N of Esplanade. Staff are friendly and helpful. The interior is pretty cozy. There's a fireplace in the corner, as well as some artwork for sale. Coffee was pretty good I must say.

Nice option on the way to the sea bus.
Ka Azul T.

Wheelchair accessible and nice decor. Typical snack options and service. Worth checking out if you need a cup and a bite. It will suffice. Convenient location at the Quay & near sea bus.

Good coffee, nice staff and not too busy nor overcrowded. It's a nice coffee place just right close to the Quay.

Took myself out on a solo date and got curious to try Loam Bistro's pistachio French toast. It…read moreseems they've since replaced the original version (with pistachio crème and ice cream) with a seasonal pistachio strawberry French toast ($21). I also got an Americano ($4.50), which tasted alright. Having a tangier fruit like strawberry provided a nice contrast to the sweetness of the French toast. However, I found the pistachio sauce to be quite weak and milky, so I'd suggest making it more pistachio-forward. This is especially noticeable since they use milk bread rather than a richer option like brioche, which left the overall dish lacking the flavour punch I was hoping for. That said, I found their food and drink options more unique compared to a standard brunch menu, so I'd be interested in returning with a bigger group to try more items. Their Thai chocolate and pistachio latte sound especially interesting!

A bit hard to find, as we were looking for a larger sign. However they have a very artsy sign that…read morecan be missed. Its a very small spot, worth the wait if there is one (holds about 25ppl max). The vibe is japanese/asian/french type of food in our opinion. Everything we ordered was great, stuffed meatballs, truffle omelet, grilled cheese sloppy Joe, bone marrow omelet and 2 drinks total of about $140 without tip. We drove 30 minutes to get here and was worth it. Not familiar with the area we parked in a garage near the building which was $5/hour (made for the restaurant above). So find street paid parking.

West of Java Coffee House is a low key place to stop by for your takeaway caffeine fix. I stopped…read moreby for my latte to go. Service is very efficient. The mini cafe is too small to accommodate much seating, so it's a locally roasted alternative (to the larger chains like Starbucks) for those who don't mind a quick pit stop en route to or from The Shipyards district. It's located conveniently off of Lonsdale and has a vintage feel - far from flashy. They proudly serve Bean Around The World locally roasted world coffees.

My daughter and I went to West of Java coffee house with Grandma for an afternoon snack. I'm quite…read moresure we've driven past this place thousands of times over the years but never really thought to go in until now. It was the " Gooey Cinnamon Rolls" sign that drew us in. Grandma was the one who saw the sign and thought it might be a nice place to try sometime.  Newsflash: The "Gooey Cinnamon Rolls" at West of Java come from Grounds for Coffee! Didn't know this when I stepped into the shop. It was while we were sitting down, enjoying our food and drink that I looked out the window and noticed the Grounds for Coffee logo printed on the "Gooey Cinnamon Rolls" sign that's hanging outside the shop. It's small and easy to miss, but it's unmistakably the Grounds for Coffee logo. I was over the moon when I realized that I no longer have to drive all the way to Commercial Drive or Alma St. to get those Cinnamon Rolls. Now I can get them anytime we go to visit Grandma!  Aside from my excitement about the Cinnamon Roll discovery, our drinks at West of Java were pretty nifty as well. We had Mocha, Chai Latte and a Matcha Latte.  I was also elated to discover that they allow people to bring in their own reusable cups and that you can get a discount for doing so! Service: Good Parking: Free parking on the street (If you're lucky enough to nab a spot!) Location: 105 1st St. East, North Vancouver
