Having worked in a coffee shop for many years, I am always in search of a good cup of coffee. I was very disappointed with Vancouver's coffee. When I found this little shop, I continued to walk the extra 5 blocks for a cup. The service is great, and they are always very helpful. I had a few sweet treats over the week and was very satisfied. By far one of my favorite places of my trip. I am surprised by the bad reviews, maybe those people are the type to not be satisfied by anything.

Stopped with my friends the other day for a bite to eat. It reminded us of our summer travels around Southern France. Unique décor, finally something that is not standardized and streamlined. Pastries, cakes, paninis, soup, salads, all sorts of coffee and tea ..made it not only look, but also taste authentic. Apparently all of these yummy creations are freshly baked at their offsite bakery and delivered daily. We tried lunch combo, grilled paninis with tomato soup – it was yummy. And finished our lunch with dessert – we split Josephine, Hazelnut Chocolate Cake and Blueberry Cheesecake. Yummy! We are definitely coming back

I come to this bakery often to fulfill the "bakery void" created when I came back to Canada from 2 wonderful vacations in France. The review below is true, things are pricey and not made on site, but I don't mind paying a little extra for my french bakery fix. There is only one other good french bakery in Vancouver that I know of (on Granville Island). Anyways, I love the Boulangerie's panini sandwiches, fruit mousse cups, cookies, and ALL of the croissants. Very delicious and VERY French tasting :)
