The bar area at Good Kid. The space where Good Kid is located has seen a couple iterations of a cafe over the years, none of them overly memorable, so I was excited to see what the team behind Good Kid did with the space. I was blown away by the transition! It's so much …
Common Good Ice Cream Lounge- Abbotsford
You may be asking yourself, "Matt, why are you reviewing an ice cream shop on your coffee blog?". Now that's a fair question, but it just so happens that they also serve coffee, so it'll all make sense, I promise. Opening late last month, Common Good is located in Historic Downtown Abbotsford and has been …
Midnight Roasters- Home
Located in the heart of the Fraser Valley, Abbotsford based Midnight Roasters is fairly new on the coffee scene. However, after trying their coffee, and meeting with founder Josh, I have no doubt that Midnight Roasters has what it takes to make it big in the coffee game.

They have an impressive collection of board games on display (over 400!), all of which are available to play while you are there. It's quite the sight to see. Additionally, the fact that it isn't …
2019 in Review-Part II
Well friends, just like that 2019 is almost in the books. Although I just started this blog in August, I've been to a lot of great coffee shops and experienced some awesome coffee. To wrap up the year, I thought it would be fun to take a look back and talk more about three of …
The Polly Fox-Abbotsford
Their charming logo. Located in charming Downtown Abbotsford, The Polly Fox is slightly different than your average cafe in that everything they serve is 100% gluten-free. Now, as delicious as their baked goods are (their banana bread is amazing), my focus remains on the coffee aspect of the cafe. For starters, the staff at The …
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 …
