Arbutus Coffee - Vancouver

Vintage feeling coffee place on the corner of a pretty neighbourhood. Has a large selection of tea. Has plant milks but only two vegan options when I was there, a butternut squash and spinach ciabatta and a zucchini loaf, both nice but not amazing. Rating would be 4 stars if they offered more options. Updated from previous review on 2021-06-13

Vancouver really excels at these unique independent coffee shops, tucked away in residential neighborhoods, often occupying house-like structures.

Very quaint from the outsideLatte was decentLiquorice mint tea wasn't very flavourfulScones were okay: not very flavourful.

Have passed by this cafe countless times, and I finally got a chance to go inside__Cold brew was niceChocolate cake was a little stale.

We were in the neighbourhood and looked for a coffee shop. We happened to see this one on our way. We ordered a cup of iced latte and asked for less ice. The iced latte tasted great and the barista did pay attention that she put less ice in the latte. <br/ <br/ This coffee shop is located at a quieter street that people can sit and enjoy their food and coffee. <br/ <br/ The interior design of this coffee shop is a bit older and more traditional (not like the new and upscale ones). When I stepped into the coffee shop (in the morning), it was a bit darker inside. <br/ <br/ Will I come back here again? Maybe or maybe not. This coffee shop targets the local people in that neighbourhood. People who live in Burnaby, East Vancouver, and Richmond may probably not come here for a cup of coffee.
