It was back in October that I first highlighted Smoking Gun Coffee Roasters on my blog. If you haven't seen that post yet (or just want a refresher) you can find it here. While that was an at home review, this post is a little different. I had the pleasure of visiting Brandon from Smoking …
Commercial Drive Coffee Company- Home
What began in 2010 as a conversation amongst a small group of people, the Commercial Drive Coffee Company has grown tremendously and now boasts six different roasts in their arsenal.

Moguls Coffee House-Whistler
Moguls is a charming little cafe located in Whistler Village. It was one of those places that you walk into and you just know you're going to get a good cup of coffee. The decor was somewhat something you'd expect from an independent shop with a large tourist clientele (not that it's a bad thing, …
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 …
