It's been years since I last visited Beaucoup, and I'm glad to see they're still doing well!…read more This location has some indoor seating and also lots of 2 top tables outside, which are shaded in the morning. We got lucky that we beat the mid morning rush because the line got really long after we ordered. It was hard to pick from all the options, and we were heading to lunch soon, so we couldn't go overboard. - Cheese scone: great texture, good cheesiness, not too dry - Bacon and onion scroll: a cheesy and meaty roll packed with flavor They also have lots of cute merchandise like candles, sauces, snoopy / peanuts gear. Staff are friendly. Cashless payments only. Prices are very reasonable compared to the Bay Area!

Christmas Season Special Item - Christmas Tree Croissant and Kuegelhoph…read more Christmas tree croissant with red stripes filled with hazelnut pastry cream and bright passionfruit jam. Dough was very buttery and crispy. I could taste strong butter flavor which stood out. Passionfruit jam dominated over hazelnut cream. It lean on sweeter side. I prefer more hazelnut cream. However, the croissant itself was one of the best. Very delicious. Holiday Chocolate Kugelhopf~ dark chocolate sweet bread studded with chocolate chips, citrus peels, and almond praline, rolled in sugar. I really liked kugelhoph's dough and almond praline! It wasn't too heavy, lighter texture and praline wasn't too sweet. So, sugar coating paired with dough very well. I would like to get this one again! Overall, I really enjoyed both Christmas items. Their baking goods was always top notch.

Matcha Latte Vanilla donut…read more Heavenly combo I loved the vanilla donut and I loved the vanilla custard filling. If I'm going to be superrrrrr picky I would say that the filling could have been more evenly distributed inside the donut but this still hit the spot I'm not sure if I needed to ask for my matcha sweetened my cashier also didn't ask me so idk - i probably could have asked for it it sweetened, or they could have gave me the option I ended up adding more sugar to it myself anyways. I would say that the matcha they use is an okay quality. I finally understand what ppl mean by it can taste a little like grass because this one had a deeper flavour and had a subtle umami taste for sure - not everybody's cup of tea.

It's very light, slightly acrid, and highly recommend because it didn't leave me feeling heavy in my stomach unlike some oat lattes do. I loved the croissant. It was crispy on the outside (but not crunchy), soft on the inside, with a lovely butter flavour. (Pro tip) dip your butter croissant in the last 1/4 of your latte iykyk study/work space: 4.5/5 They have seating space in the back which was bright and clean. The atmosphere is relatively quiet and super pleasant. Truth be told, I completely forgot that I was on such a busy street!

Signature flaky pastry with a vibrant center of whipped matcha cream layered over tangy strawberry jam, finished with a fresh strawberry and matcha dusting. Dough was very crispy outside just like they described signature flaky pastry. And whipped matcha cream had strong matcha flavor, very creamy and not overly sweet. So, it paired with strawberry jam so well. Strawberry jam had well-balanced tangy and sweet flavors, I really liked it. I highly recommend this item! Service was very good and friendly

This place is convenient coming from Kitsilano Beach. I parked nearby, although there is a parking…read morespace available for customers. I'm a routine customer of the one on Main and 13th. It's my first time here. It's busy. Lots of seats. They have a glass covered patio, which is a nice extension. I ordered a double shot of ice espresso. It was a warm day but needed caffeine. I like they have lots of choices of sweets and donuts and their portions are big. The tables are small though, and a bit cramped inside, unlike what I'm used to at Main St. There's also minimal wall outlets for laptops or phone charging. So make sure you have your devices charged before coming here to work or study. Outside it's walking distance from other stores snd restaurants. It's a nice commercial neighborhood. I recommend visiting it after going to the beach down the hill.

I am writing this review because my email to them went unanswered…read more I am shocked and disappointed at the way I was treated after spending $40. I am a HUGE 49th fan and love their dougnuts and coffee. Whenever I have friends in town, or someone needs a suggestion on where to visit, I always say "49th has really good coffee and doughnuts". Unfortunately, my mind has changed, and I don't see myself ever recommending this location. As an avid coffee drinker, I am pretty picky on where I choose to have coffee and love the cafe culture in Vancouver. My mom loves doughnuts and we had come all the way from Langley for a day in Kits, so I recommended we go to 49th! I spent about $40 on 4 doughnuts, 2 maple sea salt lattes and a drip coffee. The maple sea salt lattes looked beautiful and my doughnut was delicious as usual (big fan of the french crueller). Unfortunately, our maple sea salt lattes were very very strong and had no maple or sea salt flavoring in my opinion. I decided to ask the girl at the register if we could please get a different drink because it was super strong and didn't taste good. I was met with SO much attitude, i was actually shocked. I went into it very friendly and politely asked for an alternate drink as i did spend $12 on these two drinks (and life gets expensive!!). She then goes "well, you probably don't like the taste of coffee then".... I actually didn't know how to respond. But i did say "I'm a huge 49th fan and love coffee!". Then I had asked how many shots are in the small and she said "2". I then had asked if we could get a new/different drink and she goes "I'll give it to you this one time, but next time you'll have to pay." This is NOT the way to treat a paying customer. It felt so rude and accusatory. I very rarely come to Kits, so she wouldn't have recognized me and am an honest girl who works hard for my money. When the customer comes up politely, you offer to make it right. I hope the next person that comes up not satisfied with their drink is treated a lot better than how I was.

They had three blends to choose from: Black Iced Tea ($4), White Tea Lemonade ($4.50), and Fruit Iced Tea ($4). I originally wanted to try the lemonade, but I ended up going with the fruit iced tea because they were temporarily out. The fruit iced tea was particularly tart and refreshing, with notes of berries and hibiscus. They also offer refills for only $2, which is an excellent deal. Besides the iced teas, they also had a plethora tea blends that would make a lovely souvenir for the tea lover in your life.

The space is beautiful, very bright with high ceilings. And the selection of pastries was impressive. Opted for a latte and a croissant. Both came out as expected in terms of presentation and taste, though the latte was not as hot as one would expect. They did provide a pager to notify when the coffee was ready. Waited. Waited. Finally walked over and after several exchanges, determined it was our coffees. I provided the pager and said it did not go off. The attendant then reached down and activated it. Nice. No apologies. Beautiful space but with poor service, I have no intentions of returning to this or any of the Small Victory Bakery's.
