Fantastic drink and food selection. Relaxing and inviting atmosphere. Loved the sandwiches and my toddler devoured the blueberry muffin. I would not order the blended cold brew again because it separated and I ended up with a bunch of ice at the top. And I would argue that they could put double the vegetables into the veggie sand which as it was mostly bread but still tasted delicious. read more

Not a bad coffee but not spectacular either. The vibe is super cute and something you would find in Vancouver but I wasn't super impressed with the coffee itself. Service is all right but I feel like I am being judged when I go to pay based on how I tip. But overall, if you need caffeine and a place to go and chill this would be good. read more

Coffee was great. They also have a nice selection of Canadian sparkling water which was very refreshing. The staff is kind and helpful. It's also nice to have this little store next door. read more

Wayne & Freda - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Penticton, British Columbia

Been a few times, atmosphere is nice, and coffee is tasty, but i would rather spend $8 on a meal than a latte here. It always seems busy and a popular local spot which is neat. But If good service means no smiles and snarky attitude then doing a great job, otherwise maybe look elsewhere. read more

Get here early (and often) The lines get long around the 9 o'clock hour so be prepared to wait if you slept in! The patio is huge and there's plenty of seating (the line up stretched out from the counter all the way out the door and partway up the ramp. You can tell the locals (and visiting foodies) come here for the coffee, the food and the gram. You can taste the fresh local ingredients in the food. The bread was amazing and the eggs cooked perfectly with runny yolk (egg is optional). Both the winter toast and salmon toast were delicious. Don't wait too long to try this place out! read more

Wayne and Freda is the hidden gem of Penticton. They have a large menu, beautiful interior, and fast service. My only complaint is why it has to cost me 8$ for a latte with oat milk. The pricing is really outrageous making it hard to justify coming here more than once a month. I wish I could support this business more but a latte at Starbucks is half the price. read more

Wayne & Freda - a hand holding a cup of green smoothie - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Penticton, British Columbia

the food is very good. The service is less than desirable,especially for the premium prices you pay. Great coffee, location is central and close walk to the beach. I would have given it a higher rating however the individual taking my order promptly walked over to her colleague and failed to grab the baked goods I ordered. I saw her colleague prompt her in my direction and she shrugged her shoulders and carried on the conversation. Again her colleague could see i was waiting and asked if I needed help. I asked for my baked goods and the order taker provided one of the two items I paid for. prompting me a third time. While i want to support local businesses and not chains, with this type of customer service I am thinking twice of spending my hard earned $ at this establishment. read more

Local gathering spot between downtown and the water. Popped in to grab smoothie to-go. Asked the barista for their preference and the order was ready in less than 5 minutes. All indoor seating was taken, surprising for a Tuesday morning, but it was chilly out so friends were enjoying the cozy atmosphere. The smoothie was OK. Good option if you're looking for something quick and healthy. read more

We stayed in Penticton for the Ironman and Wayne & Freda's was packed every morning. The coffee was pretty good! We also got the tomato sandwich (which my husband LOVED) and the spring toast with feta added on. Quite tasty! Attached to it was a cute little store! read more

Perfect brunch spot. Grabbed a delicious salmon toast and a smoothie. My daughter loved the shop and the merch. Well curated collection. Great indoor/outdoor seating. read more

We had coffee at WF several times. It is always excellent. Food is acceptable, except last time the smoked salmon had a fishy smell and did not taste well. The food is also quite expensive for what you get. There is a gift shop next to the coffee shop with a number of WF items. In addition, it has a great selection of gift items, including items for children, BUT, this must be the most expensive gift shop we ever visited. For example, prices in Banff Spring gift shops feel like bargain basement, yet they carry similar items such as unique candles, tea, coffee beans and various kitchen items. read more

Tasty breakfast sandwich though look out for the runny egg. My partner's vegan bowl looked quite good.

One of the coolest coffee shops I've been too! Chilled vibes and awesome spot, lots of space. The oatmeal raisin cookie was great too

Great atmosphere; great service and even better coffee! This will become a regular spot of ours for sure!

Wonderful spot! Great food, coffee and ambiance. Fantastic place to grab a nice healthy breakfast and pastries. Every time we are in Penticton we stop in at Wayne & Freda. read more

Wowza, what a cool space! I ordered a delicious smoothie and others in my group had these elaborate breakfast toasts and tasty sandos. Their merch and the decor was stunning, really well-suited to the building, great vibe. Highly recommend, loved it here! read more

Delicious coffees, scrumptious pastries and a wonderful deck to while away the day in the sunshine with friends. If you don't bring your friends with you don't worry everyone you know will show up sooner or later! Bring you puppy if you're sitting on the deck! Great new spot! read more

I've found my penticton coffee happy place. This feels like I'm back in Melbourne at a cool coffee spot. Got a perfect flat white and avo toast - and the wait wasn't long considering how busy it was for 11am on a Saturday. Love the fresh feel of the decor and the rolled up garage door. I kinda wanted to steal the photo of the skateboarding girl off the wall but thought better of it. Will be back. read more

This not a cafe that is concerned about the quality of their coffee more about their food offerings. The espresso disappears in their latte; it becomes a milky drink. Muffin wasn't bad despite server forgetting to provide it. Poor design of workflow with customers having to bunch up at end of bar where entrance is, garbage, food delivery, return of dirty dishes. They are trying to do to much with their menu and end up sacrificing on quality of coffee. read more

Exactly what Penticton needed! We have been hoping that a good coffee place that reminded us of the fabulous coffee shops in Vancouver would open up ... and here it is!! The coffee is 10/10 and the baked goods are fabulous. Keep up the good work! read more

Very cool and trendy atmosphere. Excellent coffee and the cookies are sooo soft! Highly recommend this place for an afternoon caffeine boost. read more

Great decor... just what was need here in Pen..was hopeful of this coffee shop but.... finding the line to get an order is a disaster.... those waiting for their coffee make it harder. 2 shot Americano large is $50 cent more then 2 shot Americano Regular.... nice 50 cents for a bit more hot water.... I wish them well Just need to rethink a couple of things.... read more

Cute little place, had a great sandwich and mocha. Unfortunately it was very cold and indoor seating is limited so didn't get to stay and enjoy them as I would have liked to read more

Incredible coffee!!!! Didn't try any of the baked items, but they looked spot in. Stylish, clean place with a hip touch - but packed with neighborhood people on a Sunday morning when we visited from Vancouver. Damn, wish I could go back for more of their espresso. read more

The vibe is nice and the patio is a great spot for a coffee date but aside from that, there isn't too much to offer that differs from any other bougie drink spot. A decent but small selection of baked goods, the food menu is reasonable with something for everyone. There's a cooler with alcohol beverages as well, which was a nice surprise. I didn't find the staff particularly friendly but service was fast so that's more of a personal preference for me that I feel welcome. read more

Just discoverd today this new coffee restaurant. The ambience is very young and friendly! Good orientation that allows the sun to enter into the restaurant and it is very appreciate during winter days. The coffee is good and we can also order some food like sandwiches. read more

Wayne & Freda - Breakfast time - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Penticton, British Columbia

This is one of the nicest coffee shops we've been to! The coffee here and the food is really good. I highly recommend checking this place out! The line ups here daily don't lie. It's worth it. read more

Epic vibes and the smoothest oat latte I've ever had! If I lived in Penticton, I would be here daily.

Had lunch here it was fantastic. The staff are very nice. I would recommend. Cute spot looking into the street short walk to the beach

I guess it's just start up issues but I have been there 3 times and left twice because the service is extremely slow. It's nice to be friendly but counter staff need to chat less and service more. Food looked ok.... coffee was ok. read more

Grabbed a breakfast sandwich and coffee. Simple great menu options. Vegan friendly breakfast or lunch options too. Busy in morning but lunch was not as busy and served fast. Recommended. Nice outdoor seating area as well as spacious interior. read more

This place kicks ass! The best coffee and breakfast food. Super yummy Avo toasts! Great environment and vibe! And the music is perfect. Great for sitting on the patio and people watching! read more

I am really impressed by the gorgeous decor and the display of house baked treats Wayne & Freda offers but..... I hate to be a "Karen" I wasn't impressed by the two blonde girls that were working Saturday morning who seemed more interested in what they had to say to each other than to acknowledge my existence when saying "thank you!". It left a bitter taste in my mouth.. and it wasn't the coffee. I think customer service is what makes the complete package of a enjoyable experience and I don't think I'll be back anytime soon unfortunately:( read more

Coffee and pastries are great but don't order a meal. We ordered the avocado and toast and what came was a single small slice of toast and a quarter of an avocado and I think I paid $13??? Their meals are ridiculously small for the price. Coffee and treat are great though read more

We have several good cafes in Penticton, but for me this one is the best. Try the chocolate chip cookies, they might be the best I have ever had. read more

Beautiful new shop with a great vibe and excellent European-style espresso -- the baristas here are legit.

Hands down best coffee shop in Penticton. Delicious coffee, serene atmosphere. I went there Canada day weekend and it had been open only six days. The place was packed. They also have the best gluten free banana bread. read more
