JJ Bean adds new machine
Related entries in Vancouver coffeeJJ Bean on Commercial Drive added a new machine to their espresso bar last week. I went in on Saturday, and it looks great. They’ve reorganized the whole front area and moved the cream/sugar bar as well.
The Commercial Drive location is, by far, the busiest JJ Bean. Always a large lineup, even with the new machine. But this will definitely cut down on the wait time.
Now, if only the other Arieanna at that location would quit using my frequent buyer card, I’d be happy!
On another note, we’ve visited the new JJ Bean in North Vancouver. Nice shop! Will have to take some pictures next time we are in. For those who don’t know, we moved to North Van about a month ago, so we’re all into finding new coffee hangouts!

Hey, don’t know which part of North Van you’re in, but Delany’s in Edgemont Village (just off of Capilano) is awesome. It has a real community feel to it, not like a chain. Even though it is technically a small chain, the one in Edgemont was only the second location to open and it still really feels like an independent. The owner, Robin Delany, and his wife stop by all the time!
In Deep Cove, try Honey’s Doughnuts – good coffee AND homemade fresh doughnuts. A real treat!

Thanks Laura. We’ve been to I think all 3 Delany’s ;)
Honey’s is my all time favorite place to put on a few pounds. I grew up around the corner so it’s always been comfort food :)

Hey Arieanna and Ianiv,
My family recently opened up a cafe on 15th and Bellvue in West Vancouver called “Crema”, just across from Ambleside. It would be great if you checked us out – if you come in be sure to mention your names to the barista, it will probably be me or my brother – especially if it’s on the weekend!
Hope to see you soon!
