After checking out next door design shops, this Gastown place with inner courtyard tables and pulsing inside vibe is the perfect place to people watch and plan your new great project, au lait.
If the place is crowded, don't hesitate to stand at the wall bar with your cup, as required in many places around the world, and indulge. Otherwise, grab a seat at the communal table and relax.
Though the Drive has lots of choice, this minimalist box seems like it was transplanted from Manhattan, gurgling with creative types, local hipsters, travel escapees. Sip it in.
Explore the reno'd Strathcona then stop here for a perfect macchiato and dense chocolate cookie. Contemplate Vancouver's original neighborhood and absorb the present East Van artist energy.
