Comments on: Take 5 Cafe Review http://www.vancouvercoffee.ca/archives/2005/03/take_5_cafe_rev.html News and reviews in the coffee world Mon, 06 Sep 2010 06:32:01 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Cliff http://www.vancouvercoffee.ca/archives/2005/03/take_5_cafe_rev.html/comment-page-1#comment-109011 Cliff Tue, 01 Jun 2010 02:11:40 +0000 http://vancoffee.nfshost.com/archives/2005/03/take-5-cafe-review.html#comment-109011 Not at all recommended especially if you're a vegetarian. I ordered a vegetarian wrap at the Hastings location and was served one with bacon in it. What especially angered me was when the server brought it to our table, I asked again to make sure it was the vegetarian offering as it did not appear to be made with the same tortilla as the ones in their display case. He assured me it was. He was wrong. Nitwits didn't display any care or concern. Didn't even offer me my money back. Emailed head office with a complaint and no reply.

Talk about quaint...cozy seats and free wireless. It's always busy but I manage a spot. The $2.00 latte is a steal....at that price I can afford to add an extra shot if I need a caffeine kick....and I always add an Addiction Bar to my order. All I can say is the name of the bar says it all! I've been to the downtown locations as well,,,,they are all top notch without ridiculous prices. A little more than some, but the fresh food and yummy desserts are worth the extra pennies! My favorite is the West 4th location. Talk about quaint…cozy seats and free wireless.

The new owners are super friendly & the service is superb. Quick, courteous & since I'm a regular, I get discounts everytime!! lol... I've tried all of their food, pastas, salads, paninis, and baked goods. Try the oatmeal bars - they're delicious!! They even do catering!!! Can't say enough good things...

It tased like cheap coffee. The staff were unfriendly and did not pay attention to me while serving at all. They were busy chatting with each other. Maybe I was not there at the right time??? Anyway, there are many other good coffee shops in Vancouver to go to... I disagree, I tried the coffee at one location and it was not good at all. It tased like cheap coffee.

Have the spinach salad. Last week the nice guy who took my order didn't ask me if I wanted something to drink. When I mentioned that I'd like a juice as well, he winced and said, "I'm sorry -- I should have tried to upsell you."
