This Vancouver family enterprise has coffee shops all over the city. Enjoy their locally-roasted blends at this handy North Van location. Beans are roasted five days a week for peak freshness and they’re big on fair trade when sourcing beans from suppliers in South America and Africa. For a snack with your coffee, there are humongous muffins, alongside scrumptious scones, buns and tarts.
Take a deep breath when you step inside and inhale the aroma of the best coffees from around the globe. The owners of Moja source only the best quality beans and there’s a window from which you can view all the roasting activity. It’s the kind of place where coffee connoisseurs are created.
At Brazza, you’ll be served the most divine Italian espressos, cappuccinos and Americanos by baristas who make you feel special with their nifty coffee art. They also serve a huge array of homemade creamy, fruity and nutty gelato.
You can be sure that every drop of coffee you drink at Waves has found its way to your taste buds by a fair trade route. For a treat, try the Waves mocha, which marries Belgian chocolate with one of their perfect house blends.
