This is Tyler. Hey guys! So, if you hadn't guessed from the title, the blog this week is going to take on a slightly different format. This week we are talking with Tyler, a former Vancouverite now based out of Calgary, creator of TheBloom blog (links and the like will be below, he's well worth …
The Penny-Mission
A charming cafe nestled in the middle of 1st Avenue in Mission, B.C, The Penny has what I would describe as a "relaxed, yet hip" vibe to it. When you walk in, the outside hustle and bustle is all but forgotten. You are almost teleported to a more quiet, calming version of the street. It …
Goats on Roof- Home
This entry will be a little different then my standard reviews. This coffee, the Billy Gruff blend, is a coffee that I've been drinking at home as of late. Feel free to leave some feedback/comments on what you think of this type of post below. I picked this variety up while on a camping trip …
Wendel’s-Fort Langley
Located on the corner of Glover and Mavis in historic Fort Langley, Wendel's is a charming little cafe and bookstore that proves popular with locals and tourists alike. This was my second ever visit to this little shop, and both times I've been in, they've been packed, both inside and out on their patio. The …
Cafe Amarti-Abbotsford
One of my favourite local cafes, Amarti is always a good bet for some good coffee. Nonetheless, even with my familiarity of this spot, I had to go back and give it a formal review. It's always a very cozy, inviting atmosphere when you enter the doors of Amarti. While it's usually a very busy …
Oldhand Coffee-Abbotsford
I love Oldhand's logo design. If you're looking for one of Abbotsford's most hipster-centric locations, Oldhand is your place. And even if that's not your scene, it's still worth dashing in to get yourself one of their delicious hand-crafted drinks or baked goods. Now, Oldhand is a place that is near and dear to my …
The Buzz-Nanaimo
I knew I was in for a treat from the moment I was greeted by the chalk outline in front of their door. The Buzz likes to have fun, but in a sophisticated, yet not stuffy way. Their cafe manages to create a very cozy and inviting atmosphere through their use of artwork, seating arrangements, …
Pacific Brimm-Parksville
Just a stones throw from where we were staying, Pacific Brimm was recommended to us based on their food. Of course, I was there for the coffee. The shop looked as though it had potential. There was plenty of character and charm in the decor to go along with a variety of seating options, both …
Shed-Tofino
The Shed To be perfectly honest, I set the bar quite low as I walked up to Shed. Their main focus is on the restaurant side of things (or so I thought). In my experience, regular restaurant coffee is usually fairly pedestrian, and I ordered a latte from Shed, what a risk! But it paid …
Clik Coffee Bistro-Abbotsford
Tucked away in a rather generic shopping centre, Clik Coffee Bistro offers a break of the mundane and uninspired surrounding landscape such a shopping centre offers. Boasting a 4.4 star rating on Google, I had high hopes from the moment I set foot in Clik. Overall, they did not disappoint. While my main focus was …
Matt's Coffee Chat
