Craving's cafe is one of the few local cafes that offers an alternative to Trendz and starbucks, also located in Brookswood.
The food, just like Trendz, is all pre-made costco food, shipped in and then re-heated. Their muffins are the saving grace, fresh made and large enough to satisfy an appitite. The coffee is fairly good as well (though once again, it is not fair trade)
The place is quiet, the servers are friendly if not a bit distant, and are so-so at whipping up a quick order. They're certainly quicker than Trendz, where the girls take up to 20 minutes to make a sandwich, yet; still aren't so quick as for me to label them efficient.
The cafe looks like your typical hole-in-the-wall local eatery, but it is quite clean.
The prices can be a bit overpriced on some things, but their baked goods, muffins and scones are a great deal.
Things I reccomend:
Mango smoothie: thick, icy, and flavorful.
Berry Burst Scone: satisfys a sweet tooth in a crunch without breaking the bank or adding pounds to your waistline
Any of their muffins, especially raspberry strusel.
This place is one of the best kept secrets in the lower mainland. I almost don't want to review it because I don't want it to get any busier. First of all they have a bakery in this coffee shop and the baked goods are always fresh and soooo tasty. The muffins and scones are the best that I have ever had. They have over 20 different varities of muffins and they all taste fantastic. All the scones are very good but my personal favouite is the BERRY BURST [ white chocolate and fresh fruit, TDF]. The lunch menu is also great. They have fresh sandwiches made to order and believe me you will not leave hungry. There is always a daily special but the regular prices are very fair. The coffee is also very good. They serve fair trade coffee, which I am in favour of. I have had mochas all over North America and these guys here make the best one that I have ever had. BAR NONE. The frappes and other smoothie drinks are all made with fresh fruit mixes. The store has recently undergone a face lift and looks unbelievable. I love the fireplace and couch corner.This is a very comfy,cosy place to hang out or run in and do take out. Great atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and efficient. One of the girls that works there told me they have been open 17 years, they must be doing something right.
