I'm absolutely obsessed with this cafe! The ambience is beyond charming, with a super cute beach vibe that instantly transports you to a relaxed and happy place. Every corner is adorned with specific, pretty details that add to the overall aesthetic. The coffee experience was delightful, and the smiling staff made it even better. Their friendly service added a warm touch to the visit. Both the indoor and outdoor spaces are beautifully designed, providing options for every mood and weather.

Every time I take the bus down Cornwall Ave I notice Kits Beach Coffee. It’s hard to miss. There’s just something about the corner street location, the architecture, the colors, the contrast...that looks so cool. Even in the winter with bare tress and empty streets, Kits Coffee looks cool. I think it’s because I’m a photographer so I’m visually biased. I guess we all have our own criteria for the perfect coffee shop. Luckily in Vancouver we have an abundance of choice, so there is a coffee shop for everyone. I finally got tired of taking pictures of Kits Coffee from the bus window and went to check this place out. It was a cold, winter day and of course it was just my luck that there wasn’t any seating available inside. The place is popular so it was full, which makes perfect sense. It’s not a big coffee shop, but that makes it cozy, and the staff are nice. Big bright windows, interesting art on the walls, and they have their own merch. The place has a very lived in feel to it. Very homey. I got a coffee and croissant and went outside where there is ample seating. There were some die-hard customers outside on the benches who were having a full-on meal. And they seemed perfectly happy. These are the type of customers that every coffee shop needs to survive. I only lasted about five minutes in the cold and then I had to go. I can walk all day in the cold, but I’m not good at sitting in it.

Lovely spot with delicious coffee and yes, the best chocolate chip ever! I stopped by for the Maker’s Market, hopefully there will be more of those, because it was super fun!

The cutest place with the best drinks!! Emma and Julia were my baristas and they were the sweetest and remade a delicious drink for me when I found out they had almond milk. This place and these two rock (also everyone is sooo cool!!)

Great little coffee shop in the heart of Kitsilano. You MUST try their chocolate chip cookie, as it’s the best I’ve ever had. Sweet and salty goodness. I love that they’ve recently put up bike racks outside for my clubmates and I to hang our bikes during our quick coffee stops here. An absolute gem!
