This is a nice little neighborhood cafe. It has plenty of tables and chairs. Free wifi. This is tablestakes for me nowadays. I encounter coffeeshops with no or limited internet. Can you believe it? The crowd are mixed, seniors and students and anybody in between. They have plenty of food and drink options. Different kinds of coffee drinks, sandwiches, samosas, patties, pastries, etc. I had regular coffee and sausage rolls. The small coffee cup seems like a medium which is enough, and the medium one seems like a large to me. The sausage roll was served hot. The food on the display case doesn't seem like it's been there for a while. Looks reasonably fresh. Surprisingly, they are not too pricey! That helps in todays high inflation environment and it gets people coming back for more. There's plenty of parking in the front as this is located in a plaza. Big windows that let's in ambient light. I can see myself coming back to this place!

I came to Wick's Cafe for lunch with my daughter as I had a parcel I needed to pick up in the same area. Featured here: Matcha Latte Caramel Frappe Spinach Quiche Tuna Melt Sandwich Cloud Cheesecake The Matcha Latte doesn't appear anywhere on their menu; however, I happened to overhear a customer in front of us ordering it so when I got to the front I inquired about it and the salesperson confirmed that they do serve Matcha Latte even though it's not written on the menu. Tuna Melt Sandwich was just OK. My daughter and I both felt that the cheese was not very melted. It would have been better if they had left the sandwich in the panini press for just a little longer. We did enjoy the Spinach Quiche though. Our slice of Cloud Cheesecake was the star of the show! I was floating on Cloud 9 while eating this cheesecake. Sharing this one slice with my daughter was hard. I wanted to have it all to myself. It was so incredibly light and fluffy; it felt more like a mousse cake than a cheesecake. Now I wanna go back and try some more flavors of their cheesecake. There was some very attractive looking flavors. Wonder if they are all that light and fluffy. I sure hope so! Service: Good Parking: Free

You'd never know that the highway was a couple of blocks away. 5 minute walk from our hotel (Best Western Plus Vancouver Airport). Great service, adorable mellow atmosphere, yummy coffee and breakfast bagel.

Classic neighborhood coffee shop. They have a wide arrange of food and drinks available. Don't expect anything fancy here. Everything about being down to earth, fast and cheap. We had the bagel breakfast sandwich on the everything bagel. It does the job perfectly. Filling and well balanced. I had the Latte and it was okay. I wouldn't get it again. Next time I would try one of their specialty drinks.

Wick's Cafe is an absolute must-visit spot with food that exceeds expectations. Everything is simply fantastic, but the true stars of the menu are their mouthwatering panini sandwiches and house-made cheesecakes. We tried their signature Spicy Korean Ribs Panini and Pho Beef Dip Panini, both bursting with flavour and perfectly grilled. The surprises in the Pho Beef Dip Panini made it truly exceptional. As for the cheesecakes, we indulged in the seasonal Hokkaido Japanese Cheesecake, Toasted Coconut Cheesecake, and the heavenly "Cloud" Cheesecake - all leaving us craving for more. Whether you're biking in the Arbutus Greenway or exploring the Marpole community, Wick's Cafe is a hidden gem worth discovering. Don't miss the chance to take home their freshly baked cookies and Apple Turnover. Food: 5/5 Must Try! Service: ‍‍‍‍‍5/5 Kids: 4/5 Yay! Presentation: 5/5 Parking: Parking might be challenged as it's shared with other restaurants in the small plaza, but there is plenty of neighbourhood street parking available. Tips: * have a variety of desserts, paninis and drinks. * serve fresh baked goods and a seasonal menu. * have friendly staff who are passionate about their craft and love sharing their knowledge. Would I Return: Yes ‍

On a hot Vancouver day their is no shelter from the sun, but you can always follow where the most bustling spots are to satisfy your need to nosh! Whether it be a refreshing smoothie or a bite of something sweet or savoury. Wicks has it! Located in Marpole situated amongst several other eateries it stands out for an all around go-to for coffee drinks--warm or cold. My favourites are the colourful cheesecakes which are on the lighter side--not your typical dense overly sweet type.

I went here for lunch with a group while working nearby and back a few nights later for a tea to go. Really enjoyed the food and drink here; they have some cool stuff. For I got an Avocado and Brie Croissant with Hibiscus Mayo, a Cloud Cheesecake, and a Red Latte. The croissant was nicely flaky and the proportions of filling to croissant were right. The hibiscus mayo sounded a little bit unusual with brie but I was too intrigued not to try it and it was great. They used just enough for the unique floral tartness to come through in every bite. The cloud cheesecake, which uses butterfly pea flower, was also really good! The butterfly pea flower gave it a really subtle underlying floral flavour and the texture was creamy but not heavy. The red latte (rooibos espresso) was a little stronger than tea-style rooibos lattes but very smooth. I just had a Blueberry Green tea on my next visit which was quite good, don't remember whose tea they use. I think the prices on everything were fair. The only issue I had was that I got an aloof feeling from the staff, in particular this one barista that was there both times. On my lunch visit, there was enough of a local crowd there that it was a welcoming hang, but when I went to grab my tea in the evening, it was empty save for one group and I kind of felt like I was walking into a club meeting that I hadn't been invited to.

We visited this lovely, cozy cafe and we were impressed by their menu and service. They of course serve coffee, we tried their drip coffee and latte and they were both good. I was more impressed by their sweet and savoury offerings. We tried the Pesto turkey panini which was delicious but huge, I couldn't finish the whole thing and we also had the korean bbq sandwich which we liked more because it was really tasty. The bbq meat was tender, juicy, smoky and flavourful. My favourite however is their house made "cloud cheesecake". Not sure if they called it cloud because it was very light and fluffy in a good way. The texture is perfect for me, not very dense like most western style cheesecakes are but it also wasn't airy, it was just right. We tried the blueberry, hokaido, earl grey and tiramisu and they all didn't disappoint. The flavours were there and they weren't very sweet which is my preference when it comes to cheesecake so i easily finished 1 slice by myself. They also serve other savoury items such as soup and wraps and they have more cakes and pastries to choose from.

I've come to Wick's a number of times over the last few weeks because I was hosting an event at the Scottish Cultural Center across the street and Wick's was my spot I'd visit before or after meetings and site visits. I've mostly gotten coffees - almond milk lattes - which were great and gave me the caffeine boost I needed. I've also tried some of their pastries - pecan peanut butter cookie, chocolate chip banana bread, and the strawberry rhubarb pie. All the pastries I've tried have been delicious, which says a lot because I'm not usually a sweets person. They also have an assortment of breakfast items, wraps, and sandwiches, which I haven't tried yet. The cafe has plenty of colourful decor which brings the ambiance to life a little bit and there is plenty of seating and chairs if you want to stay and get some work done. The great thing about this spot is that there is plenty of free parking in front and in the side streets close by, so I don't have to worry about filling up a meter every 2 hours. I'll definitely be back here again soon and next time I'll try one of their wraps and/or sandwiches!

I was going to get a coffee here but then I saw the strawberry rhubarb pie and it was screaming my name, so naturally I went for the more unhealthy option ate the huge hunk of pie that they gave me (heated up, too). It's a cute little shop with a decent amount of seating and nice staff. Was a great place for a work meeting as it was relatively quiet with some white noise in the background. The girl I was with got their chocolate chip nut banana bread and that was also delicious (yes, of course I tried what she got as well). In hindsight I wish I had gone for the coffee as well because now I can't comment on that, but the rest of this place was great :)

We live in the area and have only ever just walked by on our way elsewhere. This morning I remembered seeing something about cinnamon buns in the past so I called to ask if they had any and since they did we walked over and finally went inside. They are a very large establishment very popular with cyclists with only enough outdoor seating for 2.5 tables. We sat just inside the door at the two tall seats at the bar seating. Wonderful medium cappuccino and latte coffees in low and wide white mugs. While a decorative pour would have been nice the coffee was a delight. Paired with slightly warmed cinnamon buns it made for a memorable and nicely pleasant Saturday morning treat. Place is very busy and might be best to take and go.

Dropped by with a friend after a workout to grab a quick bite. Fairly spacious cafe in a calm, friendly environment. Food is order at the counter. I asked the cashier about what paninis we're currently available, and she replied back telling me that one of the flavors was BC bagel. Feeling curious about how they would work that into a panini, I gave it a shot and ordered it with a potato and leek soup. Maybe they had some sort of unique seasoning? Of course it comes and it was just a normal lox and cream cheese bagel, sprinkled with some capers. I have no idea why she told me this was a panini. However, the bagel tasted alright. Lox tasted fresh, cream cheese wasn't overwhelming and the bagel was decently toasted. Soup on the other hand was subpar. For one, it didn't come out very hot (closer to lukewarm) and it was also very very salty. I could barely even detect other elements as there was so much potato. Overall, it was OK. Their coffee seems pretty decent, so maybe I'll give that a shot next time. Also - another cafe tipping rant. Why? This time I tipped because I figured it was a sit down place with some level of service. Instead I had to get my own cutlery, grab my own water and even go up to the counter to get my own food. Ridiculous! This better not be the new Vancouver norm.

I was looking for a place to do some work in the area and decided to do it here. Unfortunately, no AC but staff did their best to keep themselves and their customers cool by turning on all of their ceiling fans to the max, keeping their doors open (both front and back), and used an additional electric fan facing the cashier area as it was very warm that day. I ordered hedgehog and strawberry rhubarb pie. The hedgehog was good. It was made fresh w espresso and almond milk. This is my first time having hedgehog so I didn't know what to expect. I am not a big coffee drinker because I don't like the bitter taste but I liked it the way it was and I didn't feel like I needed to add extra sugar or cream. I was quite shocked at the portion size of the pie!! It's not a tiny squared snack-sized food you'd get from an average coffee shop. The pie filled the whole plate. It was so worth the $3.75 I paid. However, the fillings were overly sweet for my liking. Not bad, though! The ladies working were sweet. I'll come back here again when I'm in the area.
