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.

Fantastic bakery/cafe/sandwich spot. The vibes inside are amazing for hanging some friends. I got…read moretheir salmon sandwich to go, but I plan to come back and spend some time inside. They say good bread makes good sandwiches, and they couldn't be more true for Mishmish. Their sesame ka'ak bagel, which is elongated and has a different texture to a Montreal style bagel, is outstanding. I'd like to come back, grab some ka'ak bagels with dipping sauce and just enjoy that as a snack. Can't wait to come back!

We only got to-go so we didn't get to relish in the space, but would come back again if I could! FOOD + DRINKS: Super yum! I got the 106 Latte and I liked it! It only comes cold, so just an fyi! Typically comes with 3 pumps of sweetener but I asked for 2 since I like my drinks less sweet. I also got less ice since I didn't want it to be too cold! I loved the drink though, it was perfect! The coffee was strong enough and the flavor wasn't overpowering, and especially, wasn't too sweet, just how I like it! We also got a hot lavender latte which, surprisingly, wasn't too sweet as well! Perfect intensity of caffeine with flavor! HONORABLE MENTION: CHICKEN PESTO SANDWICH!!!! I never get food from cafes multiple reasons: too pricey, never know how long they have been there for, have there been flies in the refrigerator, etc. There is just so many unknowns with the quality of the food. But the kind lady at the register, when I asked about the sandwiches, she was so excited about it! Hahaha! I thought it was so amusing that she herself was so in love with these sandwiches, she gets them all the time is what she told me. I was feeling hungry and we had a long ride ahead of us so I got the chicken pesto sandwich! Individually wrapped in the refrigerator, only two of each kind, it looked sanitary and reasonable, and so was the price! It was toasted and cut in half for us. When we ate it, it was SO YUM! I usually each my sandwiches with hot sauce, which I forgot to inquire about, but it was so yummy I didn't even miss it! So awesome!!!! AMBIANCE: Small, cute, quaint! There are a few seats available, bar seating at the window I could see myself sit there and do work at, a few tables for seating that you could find yourself catching up with someone at! It's a small area, but if youre looking for something warm and cozy, this is your spot :)

Love the decor. Featured here: Egg Bacon Sandwich Ham and Cheese Panini sandwich Classic Avocado Toast Earl Grey Tea Iced Mocha Rooibos Cherry Rose My daughter said she couldn't really taste the cheese much in her sandwich, but still enjoyed the sandwich all the same. Her Iced Mocha was very nicely done. I found my Avocado Toast a bit on the salty side, and wasn't impressed with the egg that sat upon it. Runny yolk is what I like to see, but the yolk in this egg was very dry. They have a nice selection of cakes in their display case. I might come back here again to have some tea and dessert but don't think I'll bother with their savoury foods again. Service: Good Parking: Free parking on the street
