MEDINA CAFE REVIEWS

Enjoyed a great breakfast at Cafe Medina. Arrived 20 minutes prior to open and was immediately seated. Will be a must visit on any future trips to Vancouver. We had the cassoulet and the fricassee. Both were outstanding. Sauce in both were perfect for soaking up with the focaccia. Noticed many diners enjoying a couple small waffles as sort of an appetizer before the main course. We had ours with the fruit compote and they were a hit. Recommend - nice ambience, solid French cuisine, and good service.

Came here for lunch Wednesday and it was packed! We left our name and number—we waited about 30 mins. Got two seats at the bar! Wow the food here was delicious!! The Fricassee was well flavored and the Wolves Breakfast had a great variety of meats. Highly recommend both dishes. Cocktails were great especially the Coffee Spike. Service was good as well!

Had a wonderful experience dining again Cafe Medina. The food was amazing and very flavorful with a lot of meat and vegetarian options. The service was very prompt and top class ! Please do not miss the leige waffles.

JAM CAFE REVIEWS

May be the best breakfast I have ever had. The cinnamon roll pancakes were incredible and I can’t rave enough about the omelet, especially the sausage, peppers and onions. Would definitely dine here again if we are ever in Vancouver again. My husband loved his pork belly benny! We arrived just before opening, and they were immediately full right at 8 with a line outside. So if you are up early, definitely get there a little before 8.

This place is amazing. From the coffee to the food and cocktails, everything was delicious! The presentation was beautiful and the portions were so huge we couldn't finish it in one seating. My sis had the chicken french toast and I had the blueberry hill pancakes...delicious! The lavender lemonade mimosas were a great finish for an amazing meal. Definitely plan to return!

Great brunch spot. Service was great and had a friendly staff. Food was really good and very filling. Just wish the egg was runnier for a soft poached. Their homemade hot sauce was great. Make sure you get there early as their line up can be crazy.

SOPHIE'S COSMIC CAFE REVIEWS

Lots of dining options on this road but ended up stopping here. The interior/atmosphere was awesome with all the fun and cool decor and props! I ended up choosing the bacon Benedict. There was a generous amount of bacon (cooked perfectly) the hollandaise sauce was 10/10 and the home fries tasted great. It's definitely a great vibe with good food.

Ive had a lot of egg benedicts around town and this one is at the top of my list. The ham had a slight char and sweetness, the egg and hollandaise is immaculate, the english muffin was buttered, the hash was fine. You also need to taste their own hot sauce. Service was -eh. Overall what a great breakfast spot. Must try!

Haven’t been here for 20 years but it’s still fabulous. Best fries I’ve had in a long time (normally I don’t eat the fries but these were SO GOOD!) I ordered the Greek burger which was fabulous .
