This well-lit, high-ceilinged space with floor-to-ceiling windows up front is bright and alive even on the drizzliest of Vancouver days. There’s a communal table for 14 at the back of the room along with more intimate seating up front, and a “zine library” featuring mini-zines from a local artist for in-shop reading. Tasty treats – including Earl Grey shortbread cookies – are baked right behind the coffee bar, so the shop smells delicious. Coffee brands rotate to highlight multiple high-end roasts, and Aeropress brewing is available.
