    A good breakfast but a bit overpriced. The service was good and fast. I ordered the big basic breakfast which is 3 eggs, bacon, sausages, potatoes and pancakes. The pancakes and bacon were great. The sausages were kind of dry. The price was $27 and $4 for a filtered coffee.

    The building looks brand new. Came for lunch with my sister and nephews. The service is very friendly. I orders a whiskey bacon Swiss burger with truffle fries and iced coffee. The burger was nice and flavourful. The fries nice and crisp.

    Watermelon salad with grilled chicken add. Would prefer the feta to have more taste to complement the watermelon and chicken.

    Always interested in trying something new the lovely K and I checked this place out for lunch. It's a relatively new space, nicely appointed and bright. We were warmly greeted, sat immediately and our server was quickly by to check in with us. I ordered the watermelon salad with mixed greens, feta and added the grilled chicken. It was light, fresh and tasty with the watermelon really good in spite of it being late October. The greens were a little wilted at the ends, which is a common issue and laborious to overcome. The chicken was nicely cooked as well, and the hard boiled egg was a nice add. The feta was a bit of a let down as it was not fresh and was not in chunks which I would have liked to see. There also was not enough of it, although others may differ. K had the Maui teriyaki chicken burger, which was also quite tasty. The ratio of chicken and pineapple didn't suit the bun, so there was far too much bun for the amount innards. The fries were nicely salted, but not too much. Our server was great, checking in us and keeping our water glasses topped up. Overall a nice place with a funky menu that would bring us back.

    On a whim (okay and with a local coupon in hand), my husband and I decided to drive all the way out to the Willoughby area or Langley to try the new location of The Hard Bean Brunch Co. Enough parking in and around the strip mall, and the restaurant itself reminds me of the trendy high end place that serves brunch. A quick glance at the menu let us know they had dishes that worked well for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Unfortunately showing up on a whim meant we had no reservations, and we ended up seated at the bar. That was fine with us, we got to watch the bartenders in action and figure out how many local beers were available on tap. (Several). Husband ordered the Breakfast Mac & Cheese with Bacon while I went with the classic Hard Bean Brunch Co Burger. Overall, I liked the burger. It came with two full sized slices of bacon, not too much burger sauce and skinny fries. A good ole fashioned burger with a plain bun (and not any fancy brioche buns or glazed whatever buns that I don't care as much for). I tried my husband's Mac & Cheese. Portion was a little smaller than I was hoping for, but it did look cute in the little cast iron pan on a plate. It felt a little light and I was a little disappointed in the lack of cheesy taste. We were still happy with the service and prompt arrival of our food. The prices are a little pricier, but not a bad place to go to treat yourself. Remember to make reservations!

    Nice place with great food and good service. It is becoming a favourite spot for a late breakfast.

    Customer service was outstanding right off the bat. They had a cute welcome card at our table.

We were pleasantly surprised that they offer guests access to their full drink menu including their specials. Ube matcha was good, but had a hint of cinnamon which we could have gone without. The matcha mango was also good. The blackberry lavender matcha was too floral for our liking. However, eventually you get used to it and then it becomes more enjoyable. The pandesals were super fresh and we loved both the ube and strawberry butters that came with it. I wish that they came a bit warmer, so that the butters could have melted a touch. I thoroughly enjoyed all 3 sandwiches. I especially loved the arugula on the mozerella sandwich. The blackberry brie sandwich could have used a touch more brie, but was still delicious. The cheesecakes were good, but a bit too sweet. The strawberry was my favorite. I enjoyed tasting multiple flavors. Their red velvet cupcake was extremely moist. The pistachio malasada was cute and flavorful. The filling to pastry ratio was good. I think that the experience could have been better balanced if there were a few more savory items. One thing that we noticed was that all of the pastries including the malasada were cold. I can understand that there are some food safe requirements that need to be met in how desserts are stored. However, letting them sit out for even 20-30 minutes before consumption would have been better.

I tried both of the hot chocolate drinks to make the trip worth while. There was the Tiki Torched Brûlée Bliss that has an brûlée donut and sugar coated fruit skewers. And there was the That Flan-tastic Purple Yam that has a tune (purple yam) flavour theme and stacked with lostof Filipino desserts like flan, pandesal,and ube cup cake. Both drinks were on the sweeter side and perfect for those who have an extra sweet tooth!

    First time here, and I must say it's a small and cozy spot. I love that they offer both indoor and…read moreoutdoor seating. I asked the server/barista what the popular savoury items are to try. She recommended: Rosemary garlic pull-apart, and that was REALLY GOOD. Definitely a 5/5. French onion pull-apart, 4/5. Fig, brie, and prosciutto croissant, 4/5 (wife's favourite). Croque monsieur, 4/5 (kids' favourite). I also ordered an oat milk latte with vanilla syrup, which was 5/5. Really good latte!!! They source their coffee beans from "Honest to Pete," located in Vancouver. A 1 lb bag costs $25, and I'm planning to pick one up on my next visit!

While their pastries/cakes are on the pricier side, the quality was really good. The dark chocolate raspberry mousse ($8.25) was decadent and rich without being overly sweet and honestly their canele tasted pretty much like the one I had in France! The matcha latte here (~$5.50) also was better (less milky and had a stronger matcha flavour) than some other cafes in the area. Overall, a pretty solid cafe in the Coquitlam area though you might need to check ahead for pastry availability.
