Aubade Coffee

11 Best Coffee Shops in Vancouver | Condé Nast Traveler

"Aubade is consistently cited as one of the best coffee shops in the world, so you might expect big things—but big is one thing this place is most certainly not. In fact, if you’re joined by two friends, you will have filled all of the stools at the tiny stand, which is located inside a cool vintage shop that sells everything from antique typewriters to old neon signs. But don’t let the stripped-down offerings fool you: when it comes to coffee, Aubade punches well above its weight, with an owner (who's also the sole barista) who crafts each brew by hand." - Jennifer Van Evra
