Excellent place

Riya Sharma

Brendan Bernardo

Love this coffee shop that opened up closer to home. It's started to get a bit crowded now with the college crowd, so gotta get there early if you want to secure a seat. LOVE the Matcha Latte's!

Awesome desserts awesome environment

Alen Najafi

Awesome quality and lots of nice options

Delicious coffee specially the Spanish Latte, their selections of ice teas are so good. Pastries are fresh and very good. Love the Almond Croissant Very friendly staff, bamboo utensils. The only thing I would love is at least one or two arm chairs.

Jericho Diego

Spacious place to study, try the waffle!

Niki patel

Nice coffee and good ambience to spend time with friends or even a work meet!

Craig & Laura Ketchum

Awesome place! Try the Spanish Latte.

Mike Berg

Nice place if you like to be around many people. This place is always packed. Most of the people spend few bucks to buy one cup of coffee and seat with their computer here for hours. Totally utopian business strategy for the owners, but great atmosphere if you want to do homework or study. The coffee is of decent quality, but don't expect Revolver type.

Ruth Larios-Lacayo

I just went for the first time, i am definitely going back. So yummy, great service, even the customers are sweet!

Karim Haddad

Jyotika Sroa

I love it here ???????? They're super eco conscious too and their stuff is quite tasty

Mo Durrani

The Spanish Latte is great. If you need a kick, go for the Monster Latte!

Jay

Good coffee, but little too crowded.

Jasmine Dhanda

Cute place! Drinks and snacks were good, but was very loud.

They couldn't give me any suggestions left feeling super awkward.

Olivia Barbieri

Elliott Ro

Rick Wan

Dessert is very tasty. Pretty good coffee.

Lawrence Wong

Meanz K

Pricy menu but good atmosphere overall. I really didn't like their iced teas and the italian sodas. Friends who are coffee drinkers usually enjoy the spanish latte here.

Amei-lee Jannelle

This is a good place to study. The seats aren’t very comfortable and the place is always busy. Otherwise the pastries and beverages are delicious.

Aarsh

Kirin Ho

Nicole Funnell

Very trendy atmosphere. Delicious London fog and great if you want a sweet treat. My only critique is that you can't get a much there for savory food.

Dong Woo Kim

Very well prepared for Covid-19. Spanish latte is very tasty. I would definitely make visits next time.

Dom

Good place to go study after 5pm

Sunny Yerra

Nice spot to hang out, try their dragon breaths!

황미현

엄은미

So good!

Brenda Gammon

Best coffee in Surrey by far!

Charlie C

Good place for studying and good coffee and desserts

Elena Han

Coffee is nice, but the male waiter showed a blank expression with a stolid face ???? :(

Hyemin Christine Roh

(Translated) There are so many seats that you don't have to worry about reading books, studying or talking. It's like the atmosphere of a Korean cafe. It's good. recommendation (Original) 좌석이 많아서 책을 보든 공부를 하든 이야기를 하든 크게 신경이 안쓰이는 분위기. 완전 한국 카페 분위기랑 똑같다. 좋네요. 추천

Ahmad Pirani

The space is really big. But the coffee feels a little stale. A little pricey too.

Brandee Mills

Ordered a tea, delicious matcha blackberry dessert & a cold brew for my friend. The cold brew came hot (I don't drink coffee so maybe I don't understand the lingo). They whipped us up a cold surprise at no charge, which my friend really enjoyed. Staffs always nice. Place is clean. And I like how they give you a buzzer when they're busy or your drink takes a bit to make.

Burmy

Dont go here. If there was a no star they deserve it, rude staff and horrible services. Don't be fooled with the other reviews praising them

mij allinip

Good

Megan Joseph

The coffee and other beverages are really nice and there is lots of seating. Perfect study/work spot.

Ruben Padilla

Great place.

Grace Alonsabe

Can get busy but good place to get work done. I recommend the ice cream!

Anna Z

I had an iced latte here which was very smooth and tasty. However, just a heads up that the seating capacity has been limited to half of the cafe and that there’s now a rule that you can only be seated for an hour at a time. After the first hour, you have to order something else to stay longer. I would’ve loved to stay longer since I did intend to get some work done but ordering something every hour seemed excessive. Overall not an ideal place to study / work.

Alas Ramus

Pretty good stuff, priced the same as starbucks essentially. Just imagine an Asian styled starbucks. I ordered a White Choco Mocha Iced. And it was pretty good. Also ordered the Dragons Breath, nice experience

Jennifer Oh

overpriced

Sky Hill

Would recommend this beautiful coffee place it’s cozy and feels clean and everything feels clean I would hang out here again in the future

Liv-Anita Dahl

Always great coffee. Love their cold brew! And that you can get it hot. Also excellent service.

Adrian Gonzales

Loving the French Macaroon options.

Luan Jiang

Great place!

Billee Charmaine

The coffee is great & staff are always friendly. Only thing is I wish they opened earlier in the morning. Like 7 or 8 would be perfect.

Felix Huang

Great place to study. They also have outlets by the desks for charging laptops. Definitely recommend the Spanish Latte, it's absolutely amazing.

JB CHU

In short: good coffee, great space, bad mille crepes. Love the space, wide and relaxing. It's spacious enough for a crowd with power outlet for laptops and phones. Parking is convenient, plenty of space for everyone. The coffee was good, but not as great as I expected. Nevertheless, the temperature was perfect. Good latte gotta have the right hot temperature that's enjoyable and not tongue burning. The cake...was the reason of being 3 star instead of 4. I ordered the Matcha Mille Crepes. It was not made fresh, and judging by its texture, it was sitting in a fridge overnight. The thin layers of crepes that were supposed to be tender and mesmerizing, turned out to taste like cold, super thin, uncooked naan that held a grudge for being left alone overnight in a dark refrigerator.

Gregory Montgomery

Great coffee, great staff. Really great place!

Bryson T. Phagura

Kind and warm staff, great coffee, awesome environment. Whether it's a first date, study session, or just grabbing a quick cup I would absolutely recommend this place :) Also they offer a great selection of desserts and ice cream!

Anjali Jalutharia

Their coffee and food tastes good but the place was very chaotic with people all over working on laptop. Which gave us lil difficultly to sit and have my food. Ambience and staff was ok.

Kenny Leung

Awesome coffee, super nice staff, good vibes, good music. Overall ????????

Taimur Habib

Fantastic service and clean environment. Definitely would recommend going there

Mohamad Alzoubi

Good and quiet place to have some coffee and relax.

Ribal Bshara

It's okay but it's too loud in there

Ralph “NomRiceNom” Nomorosa

Their italian sodas are good

Michael O

Staff very kind and helpful. Clean, modern and confident environment. Suggest iced Spanish mocha. Delish.

David Wu

Place was clean and the service was great. It was great to have a meeting during the day as lot wasn't loud at all.

Onyx “Panther” Panther

Good staff, they are very kind and helpful. Also super-efficient with coffee/food delivery upon helping their customers. Tech friendly. A little more in price then Starbucks, but has amazing flavors, keep it up Monster!!

Richard Lin

Dene

Went here at the beginning of march. The coffee tasted like gas station coffee and the cookie was old. Looked like a nice place for people to study or hang out.

Anh H

Really good coffee. Great place to study. Gets a little loud sometimes and packed during finals season.

Delicious

Mimi So

This is a really cute coffee shop. Their drinks are yummy and they have lots of delicious options. This is a gem in Surrey! Love this spot!

Angela T

it's a great place to study at and the music is more tamed than other places i've studied at. but why is the door so annoying lol.

Carmen Bright

Lots of space to stretch out and a good amount of dessert choices to nibble on with a nice cup of coffee. If you like to pair sweets with coffee this is the place to go in the area.

Gurjit Uppal

Lil expensive. But nice place

Anshu Arora

This place is a hidden gem! Great coffee! Great deserts. Great place to hang out or meet up for meeting! Friendly, professional staff

Suzanne Fleur de Lys - Aujla, AMP

Friendly staff and delicious coffee, a great place to meet clients or just pull my laptop out and work!

Ben Moreno

Always busy full of students with laptops or playing video games, very difficult to find a table to sit, and when finally somebody left a table empty, it had only one chair; saw 2 parties of 3 people walk away a few seconds after entering the place when they realized they had no chance of sitting, owners should do something about it, they are loosing money, most of the students lingering consumed a small coffee hours ago and keep the empty cup on sight to show they are paying "customers"

Mai Azur

Clean, open space. Good coffee and dessert stuff. Lots of outlets for those plugging in. Free parking. Good to meet a friend or network over coffee

Vohstek

Took an unacceptably long time for two drinks to be prepared while it was not even a busy time of day. The drink was eventually discovered to have been made wrong. The barista was cold and uninviting.

김솔아

My go to spot!!!!! Hehhehehe I love it!

Dorothy D

Good coffee, good dessert, lots of workspace, and friendly staff. Can get a little too noisy when full but the experience was great overall.

Probably the best mocha I have ever had. Love that that there is lots of seating too.

Jooah Ryu

my favourite place!

Tuấn Hưng

Mohammed Hussain

Coffee is ok. Desserts were good

Jason Babakaiff

Nice place for coffee with unique atmosphere. Tea options are very limited.

Madison Green

Very busy place! The parking lot can become very full quickly due to all the other business that are attached to the same building. The customer service was nice , and they had a buzzer system to let you know when your order is ready. I ordered an iced coffee and scone. The scone was very very dry. And the butter given to me was still frozen so I wasn’t able to spread it very easily. I would also say that there really wasn’t much food or bakery items to choose from. The coffee I ordered was alright, I wouldn’t say anything special. Most seating is taken, so come a bit early to make sure you can find a spot.

Jason Lenny

Great bean! The interior is hip AF. Love it!

Demi Ocampo

A little overpriced

Lindsay Rose

Simon Rai

Open space with fast wifi and lots of space to work.. and great coffee!

Tim S

Grace Lee

great location but drinks sucks most of the time coffee is not bad but other drinks are disappointing

gurjinder Kaur

Ida Naveas Santander

Well. I went there just because it has good reviews but once there... they dont have any sandwich.. when I asked they said they only have sausage something (I dont eat sausage) and plain croissant. So the sweet is the option... 3 dollars for a very small blueberry scone. I tried a mango cake. It was ok but not a place for going back.

Nikki Ng

Alwan Khalaf

The service is excellent and the place is great to have a coffee or to study

Katya

Really great place to sit when you're waiting for icbc. Their earl grey crème brûlée and London fogs are great!

Abu Zaynab

Their customer service has dipped in the recent months and they constantly have loud music on all the time. Gives you a headache. Other than, food and drinks is fairly common as there is in Blenz or Starbucks. Read other recent reviews, they all seem to be saying what I am trying to say

Margaret Dudley

Nice place. Enjoyable atmosphere

Celine Balleza

A. L.

I had the spanish latte, which was delicious (latte sweetened with condensed milk). The matcha tiramisu was unfortunately quite bad. There was no flavor at all, and the icing/frosting must have been very old as the texture was like old liquid glue. My friend had the matcha layer cake which was similarly very bland and not worth the 7/8$. The place smelled a bit like bleach throughout (yuck) and was pretty busy ; it seems to be a popular study hangout. I do like the buzzers they give you that ring when your food/drink is ready. I would only come back for a quick grab n go coffee.

Katie H

Been here a couple times now and it's very nice inside, spacious and has an outlet at every table by the walls. The staff are decent. A lot of people come to work/study here. I got the Italian soda in kryptonite which is very delicious and probably my favourite drink here. Tried the watermelon and pomegranate Italian sodas before but they were alright. The mango tiramisu cake isn't very good but the regular tiramisu is better.

Hoger Abbas

Love the drinks available and service is fantastic. One of my favourite places to go for studying or hangout with friends.

Trina H

Tashfia Zaman

One of my fav the staff is always so nice and friendly ! I love their hot chocolate! with marshmallows ????????????

Donna Tran

Store attendant is quite rude. Coffee is alright.

Panda Bear

Very loud filled with students that stay for hours on end. Mediocre drinks, but the male barista made a solid Spanish latte. Edit (after a couple more visits): Most regulars that come here know that the owner can be quite rude, which isn’t a huge deal because that could just be her personal problem. Although, I will not accept her talking down on me and my contemporaries. Will never be coming back. I wish I could do negative stars because if I could, it would get a solid -5. Just because you’re the only stand alone cafe in guildford area doesn’t make you the best cafe in guildford.

Dion Chong

I don't recall Coffee Monster in Coquitlam being this good. The chai affogato was an excellent two scoop delight, and the crème brûlée top was properly caramelized and crunchy. The space is well lit, with power where you need it and actual restraint demonstrated in the volume of the music. I do wish that they had some options on the menu that wasn't just sugar—it would be more accurate to think of this place as a dessert cafe. But all in all, excellent.

YC Bondoc

A good place if you want to study. They have maximized the small space and the place caters to students or anybody who wants to chill and work, too.

Ryan W.

A nice place to catch up with friends or to study. Lots of wall outlets for charging your devices while you grab a drink or something to eat. Staff was kind. There is a 1 hr 30 min seating limit once you purchase something, after which you have to buy something else to stay for another 1 hr 30 min.

Chris J. Fisher

Place has great drinks & selections. Great for coming & doing studying or business work. One tip i would suggest to have more comfortable seating!

rene radomski

Great variation of drinks and really friendly staff, good floor layout even during limited seating due to Covid. Sat here for 2.5 hours enjoying food, beverages and good (social distanced) company. Never felt out of place, would recommend for a first date or low key get together.

chansong won

Tiramisu is great, it gets loud for studying though

Sheryl Zulueta

Been here many times but affogato write a review. Latte Mojito is prob my go to when I'm in the mood. Affogato's are all good. Chai and Earl Grey Affogato are my faves. The dessert is good. The vibe is busy. Workers are friendly. Def the go to coffee shop in Guildford.

Anastasia Z

Coffee tastes really good. Not bitter, smooth and rich. One of the best coffee I tried in Mainland.

Canada Michelle

Amazing coffee

John Paul N

Meh quality coffee but good place to catch up and/or study

Love the atmosphere here. So hip and they serve republica coffee! Definitely a fave. Love this place and would come more often if I lived closer!

Sam park

Loved coffee

Stephanie Chow

Ken Zuk

Too noisy, nowhere to sit as everyone is glued to their chairs with free internet.

Sim K

Good coffee/tea place with nice ambience. Cakes and other desserts are fresh and delicious. Great selection of hot and cold coffees.

Pete H

never disappointed. Always amazing service and the best spot to study/work

Akshay Khosla

In love with this place, the only thing is you might have to wait for a bit if you planning to sit there, as the place is packed. They do have a cap on for how long you can sit there.

Jacob Shier

Decent Coffee bean, their Spanish coffee is definitely a good treat and not to mention a variety of sweets on the side! The menu is a bit of a mess due to the cafe following the "little bit of everything" theme. Most overseas based cafes or local startups that follow this kind of menu design usually put too much information in front of you due to how competitive dense city cafes have to be. Unfortunately for me I don't feel it translates well for a local cafe although the locations are set in denser Korean populations here and with that that's a warning for someone looking for a coffee experience and not just a study/hangout spot. Atmosphere and design is open and simple, very nice for space(Guildford location)

Nevin Webb

More relaxing , sit have kind of cold drinking, coffee,snack , Bitcoin site

A L

Decent beverages, good macarons, the other food items are pretty pricey for the serving size.

Angela Poulin

Great for studying! Can get super busy though around exams :/

Amir Ali

Desserts and coffees are perfect and the staff are quick and friendly!

Esperanza De Castro

Catherine Randall

Saturday evening, no drip coffee available. Was offered espresso mixed with water instead....Timmies here we come!

Charioles Ex

The chair for long-time seating (doing papers, etc) are not the best since it's kinda small and hard. The tables in the middle area also don't have electric socket available. The drinks, the prices are decent and the taste is decent too. Nothing is really memorable yet to make me want to recommend it to a friend. But for a standard hangout place, it's quite acceptable.

Timothy Taylor

Good tasting coffee and fairly large dining area which almost guarantees a seat.

t phillips

Fast service

Derek Goodswimmer

Edit: I first came here over four years ago and I can confidently say that it's still the same shop I've come to know and love! Always bringing in new cookies and cakes, consistent quality to their coffee's AND to their wonderful customer service! Come for the coffee stay for the cake! Seriously tho, get some cake. The cake here is on par with any speciality cake shop.

Ren

Spacious environment, perfect for students, place to hang out or working alone. Prices range from $2.50 ~6.50 (without tax). There are macaroons, cheesecake and other pastries along with some selection of ice cream. Excellent choice of beverages & music election ????

김철운

Good!

Nadine Exner

This coffee shop is very nice! It has a really nice atmosphere. Many people were studying inside ( when indoor dining was open). They have a great assortment of drinks and treats.

Skdurrani Inc

Service is always great here.

Victoria Tran

Adrian Prasad

Finally a cafe in Surrey that feels local and lively! The coffee is great, and an ideal place for students who need a place to study. Lots of outlets which is also great! Wish Coffee Monster existed here when I was in university.

If you want to drop $6+ on coffee or tea go here.

Danton Nguyen

Friendly staff, great music, big selection, delicious coffee

Dean Tejada

If you wanna have decent coffee and a good spot to study in Surrey, this place is the only one available to go to. They have outlets in every table so there's little fear of having your laptop/phone dying out, and a variety of things to select to drink and eat.

Anthony Duffy

Local, family owned cafe that tries hard to make quality innovative drinks. They have good hours, lots of seating and are striving hard to keep their business running whilst providing a necessary outlet for people to meet, study etc. I say necessary, because lost in the Covid situation is the damage done to mental health for so many people who have nowhere to go. Meanwhile, mega companies like Starbucks have shut down their seating despite no requirements to do so. I hope this pays off for this local Canadian owned cafe. I appreciate their effort to survive, to provide great drinks and desserts and to be one of the few to think about their customers first. I would encourage others not to support the big brand American chains like McD, Tim Hortons and Starbucks, support the local cafe or one day you'll be living in one giant Costco world due to this reset.

Scarlet “새봄” Kim

Love this place. Has the best iced London fog and green tea matcha daquoise and cakes (especially oreo cheesecake)! ????

Robyn Petrik

Love Coffee Monster! Great drinks and desserts, lots of seating. It's also very student/work friendly with lots of outlets to plug into. The only thing I'd like to see change is that right now they don't offer glasses for cold drinks when you're eating in. A move away from single use plastics would be great!

Renzle Lopez

nice cakes.

Hiba Sheikh

Very good mocha

Absolutely amazing. Great food, attentive service, and a bustling ambience. . The girl on front suggested me coffee and it was soo good . The macrons were full of flavour. Absolutely love in with this place as its very close to my place ☕️☕️☕️

Sung Yen Tsai

So you are looking for a great environment to work with your laptop and chat with the client face to face but you don't want to stay in your boring office. Well, this spot is perfect for you, environment is not too loud and great amount of parking with a variety of tasty cafe drinks to keep you pumped.

brandon schwazer

The coffee is unreal here! Lots of seating and great for studying. Only thing missing is there isn't really a comfortable spot to lounge out for a while. It's all hard chairs and the bench seats on the walls are hard wood as well. Highly recommend the coffee though!

Kaede Ai

busy today, but had to wait 5 mins for a seat

Nice open atmosphere with plenty of electrical outlets. Basically the ingredients for a great place to get some work done or grab coffee with a friend.

Mike S

What a weird Starbucks...

Linda Tsai

My go to place now. I have a hard time studying/working at home so this is really close by and convenient for people who transit. There are plugs all around the walls. Amazing hours that open at 9 AM and closes at 10 PM. Their table and seating places aren't great but give you enough room to put down a laptop and textbook. I also like their music playlist that is from the movie Always Be My Maybe. Good pick.

Diana Ky

Officially my favorite coffee shop! Delicious desserts and coffee drinks! Never once was I disappointed when I visited. The staffs are very friendly ! Totally recommend the Spanish latte ????????????????

Natalia D

This used to be a decent coffee place in surrey so I decided to stop by. I’ve noticed the prices have been raised and ow higher than downtown Vancouver. I’ve ordered the black coffee cold brew with hazelnut, but the young guy made it with milk for some reason. He wasn’t happy when I pointed that he didn’t even ask about milk and I am lactose intolerant, so he had to remake it. He took 5 seconds to remake my $5 drink and 95% of it was just ice and water. I could barely taste coffe but decided not to come back. The manager wasn’t there and the boy couldn’t answer my questions about other products. I should mention that I didn’t tip him because of raised coffee prices ($12 for a coffee with a macaroon in Surrey), which probably affected the quality of my coffee and service.

Jameson Traivis Rebutoc

I've only ordered one drink (iced tea with peppermint and blueberries) and it was great. Not crowded, nice people, cool place

Mohammed Zaqout

Very nice, quiet, and clean.

Iris Marasigan

Nice dessert and coffee place. Great for coffee meets and learning hubs.

Scott D

Awesome place, however too many students taking up seating from paying customers who want a seat. This issue needs to be dealt with or you will lose customers. Drinks and food products are great.

Amanda Heart

Very broody grumpy girls at the counter both times I’ve visited. They appear to very much dislike their customers and were unfriendly and unsmiling. The second time here we ordered water and were going to order coffee as we departed for our walk outside so it would be hot. They approached our table 3 times during our meeting to inform us that we had to buy something or leave. In addition, they stared angrily at as from behind the counter almost out entire stay. We were professional and polite the whole time, very disappointed with this level of customer service. Needless to say we did not make the coffee purchases we had intended to and went to Starbucks instead. Will not be back. Highly recommend they check their customer service strategy. Perhaps they can inform customers who only get water, while at the counter still, of their rule and avoid the drama.

M Nguyen

ShawOpen wifi available Card and cash accepted Friendly staff Lots of seating available The primary clientele look like students, seems like a popular spot to bring your laptop and socialize Nice selection of desserts, the tiramisu is tasty

Melissa Castro

Place is not bad, aesthetically pleasing, bit loud and busy to do studying for me though, tried a few of desserts, most recent was the red velvet cake which was dry and vanilla cheesecake which I found a bit sour taste. I've had better ones from other cafes or bakeries and are the same price range. People working there were not friendly as well.

daniel fel

Great place. Prices are too high. Pricing alone makes me go elsewhere.

sumaiya t

Always go here to study! Great place, drinks are a bit pricy but overall it's good

Amy Y. Chen (陳柏英)

Good atmosphere. Have wifi and plugs around every seat.

Rania Atef

The coffee is good but the service is really bad, I got offended from the lady that takes the orders at the cashier, and her attitude isn't friendly at all. I went 3 times and every time I feel like she is gonna throw me out. I decided not to go there and I advise everyone not to go there because the treatment wasn't good at all.

Daniel Loney

Great coffee and great internet. Wonderful cafe for getting work done. If your looking for good with your coffee there are better option. I have had a few kid their cakes and they are good but nothing crazy.

carpediem2171

Worst customer service. Female owner is extremely rude, stingy, and entitled. Ordered a dirty matcha and she made it wrong with too much matcha but when I asked her to remake it, she belittled me asking if I even know what a dirty matcha is. Ma’am, I work at a cafe. Please learn to provide better customer service because this isn’t the first time I’ve seen you be passive aggressive and rude to customers.

Good quality drinks and large tables with ample power plugs. A great place to stop in for a drink or for to spend some time for a group project

This shop is so much better than the big chain coffee shops. The drinks actual taste great and the food options are delicious. The service is excellent and the atmosphere is relaxed. Heads up it can be busy so expect a wait to find a good seat.

Michelle

Coffee and food are Okay, could be better. The interior is nice though.

Camille V

If you find starbucks too crowded this is the place to be. I have been here twice in last two weeks and my overall experience has been positive. The staff is friendly and the music is great. Their utensils are eco-friendly. There are outlets all along the walls so if you need one, find a booth. It is a bit pricey but you basically make it back in wi-fi. Again, desserts and drinks are great. (Food is more overpriced with cakes being $7 a piece and macarons that are $2.25 each/ 6 for $12.50/ 12 for $24).Wish there was more hot food though.

Andrew Im

Like it good coffee

Maggie Lam

The crepe cake wasn't very fresh and the crepe layers are a bit too thick.

Place was completely empty on arrival - cappuccino was pretty good - milk was very stiff but still tasty! Not the cheapest place - lots of seating and drink selection. Clean and quiet - location isn’t too great but I’d swing in here again

way too much foam. inexperienced staff as usual in the cafe business. previous customer had less foam I almost grabbed his drink then they said it's not mine. when mine came he told me: I made yours a bit too hot. I said I like hotter. but really it was just way too much foam like bath bomb what a waste of an expensive Sanremo machine. probably a sanremo cafe racer, 30k machine.

Spanish coffee was good. Kids enjoyed their bonfire hot chocolate and tuxedo cake. Quite busy but good social distancing.

Nice coffees must try

Calvin Bowen

Ryan was impatient, pushy and seemed not to care for basic greetings and service, however 5 minutes later changed his attitude and we had a delightful conversation. Ambience was phenomenal and hot chocolate was pretty good. He didn't apologise which was a shame and unfortunately I didn't get the chance to confront him about this as I was running late for an appointment

Saurav Kalra

One of the best Cafe’s in Surrey!

Corey Williams

Spanish latte ????????

Sylverlynx 666

Very good. Best coffee shop ever! I've been to New Mexico, Toronto, all over Alberta, and British Columbia... Definitely the best of the best.

Dave Saechao

Nice place for young adults to chill or study. Pretty spacious.

Tiffany Glasgow

Good food. Strong coffee more expensive than Starbucks

Muntazir Jaffer

This place was. Awesome the macaroons are sooo worth trying and the strawberry iced latte it’s soo good i personally had a great experience at this coffee shop the survive is a little slow and the cashier’s sometimes don’t understand what you are saying but after those few concerns the food is pretty good

This place is awesome. This is the perfect place if you want to get some work done It's quiet and ther are multiple outlets for charging your laptop or phone. The desert case is also really good!

Jas Saini

Horrible staff, came in to quickly charge laptop and they wouldn’t even let me sit because I didn’t buy anything and said other customers were waiting for seats when no one was there

Bernard Sheppard

Custom coffee house, where you can buy or sell bitcoin too!

Barbara Schneider

Lots of workspace, frequented by police so u know the coffee is good. Lots of choices. Best chai tea latte we have found

Ella Saavedra

PROS: They keep the place clean, there are barriers and outlets between each booth and its one of the only places in that area that actually offers seating (lots of other places have declined seating due to covid) CONS: the two workers there (male and female) are not the warmest people...they don't look like they enjoy what they're doing and they are not the cheery & interactive baristas you would usually expect at a small business coffee shop. They only have one bathroom open (even when the whole shop is full and there is another bathroom available) and require you to use a community key that everyone else touches to access it. They don't allow any outside food or drink which is understandable but is kind of frustrating when they don't offer any other food besides cake and croissants so you're forced to starve or leave to eat and come back only to find your spot taken. They require a 1.5 hour time limit which is also understandable but frustrating when they choose to not enforce it on some days and let you stay for as long as you want but then choose to enforce it on other days and kick you out (even when it isn't busy). The payment machines also ask for a tip which I honestly don't mind because I like to give back and tip other but I find kind of out of line when the baristas are not kind nor doing any other service but making your drink and pressing a button to tell you to come pick it up. Message to Owner - I know this is an overall negative review and I'm not trying to take down your business or attack you. I am just simply stating my concerns and thoughts that I've kept to myself for quite sometime now. You have a great idea going and your shop is beautiful but please do something about some of the concerns I mentioned. Thank you and hope to come back eventually one day.

Trash service. Me and my friend were minding our own business but they kicked us out because it was full and someone wanted our spot. Worst experience in a coffee shop ever. Also there was a mosquito in my cheesecake.

Sara W

Iced green tea lattes and Spanish latte are ????

Rio A

I usually come here to meet up with friends and was my go to place to study (pre covid). The set up of the tables with the plugs on the wall is very helpful. The tiramisu and spanish mocha/latte were my go to orders a s they're absolutely delicious! A bit on the pricier side but definitely worth it. Also love the music selection and I remember hanging out here lots during the summer as their AC is on the cooler side which I love. Overall a great spot to go and hangout and thankful they're in my community!

James Lee

Nice cafe with wifi, not much to complain about.

Lena Soomin Chung

The food and drinks are great (though it's on the expensive side). I have visited this place for three times and every time the customer service was not good. The lady taking the order was unpleasant and I felt offended when I simply asked for a receipt. Also "You need to buy more if you want to stay longer" is what she repeats, though the cafe is empty.

Amazing cafe , love the macarons , strawberry latte and iced Spanish mocha !!

Tasty caramel lattes! Way better than Starbucks. Has a stronger more bold taste. I love the desserts but way too expensive.

Nice chill place to have a coffee. Nice environment too.

David Holder

Lots of seating, busy, good atmosphere, kinda pricey

Usually busy around exam season.

phil gagnon

Wanted to say how great the coffee/espresso options are here. The taste is amazing, they use locally roasted beans and are phenomenal. Would give 4.5 stars but only get 4 since they could be a bit friendlier. Great coffee, highly recommend.

Jasleen Jaura

It is one of the best cafes in Surrey. The downside is that coffee is more expensive than Starbucks. But the cafe is spacious and it's good to sit down and talk with friends. Another bad thing is that there is a limit to the amount of time you can stay in a cafe. Most of Korean cafes are like that, but an hour and a half seems too short. Also, cakes were too sweet.

One of the best if you're looking for a jolt. Surprisingly smooth coffee compared to Starbucks, if you're comparing instant kick.

Rishi Rozay

WOWWWWWW! What and underrated place, more people need to check this place out. The quality is unreal 5 outta 5 for sure????????

Jordan Rebner

Super delicious drinks. Great spacious environment with a lovely clean industrial look as well. Dessert was above average for a coffee shop in my opinion as well.

Seunghee CHOI

I'd put 3.7 stars if it was able to do so. I'm glad there is a coffee shop like this in this neighborhood. Lots of seats, very open space, nice selection of drinks and desserts. Their coffee drinks taste okay, average or a bit above but I'd day some menus flavoured with milk, like Mocha, Spanish latte so on, are a bit over priced.

Luis A.

The ambience is great; staff was young, but very friendly. The espresso was well balanced, with smooth acidity, some earthy notes, and a light mouth feel that lingered just long enough. Hoped more information about the origin of the coffee grains was available though (not a deal breaker). I intend to drop by again before leaving town. You should stop by for your favorite specialty coffee when you can.

Layne Zander

This place is great. They've got a lot of seating, the coffee is good and they've got some nice background music going. I think they've cornered the market for students looking to study. It's a good study environment (for me) and open late, which was the main reason I came here. But I'll definitely be back. I don't leave a lot of reviews but I felt like this place deserved it.

Carl Tahimic

Good place to chill

Great little coffee shop. Good coffee and treats. Only giving 4 stars as the service is consistently slow even when there are no other orders before yours.

man this place shouldn't never been opened i went me and my friend and i didn't enjoyit at all thanks god bless you all

Hyeunjoon Kim

Great coffee, fast wifi, ample power outlets and comfy seating, my favorite cafe in the lower mainland for getting work done

Gagan Bains

Highly disappointed with the customer service and by ownership at BLENZ for kicking us out without even ordering, they were still open for 20 mins but they closed their tills so they could go home early. Went to coffee monster literally 10 mins later for great service. Coffee monster you get 5 stars and thank you for the tasty drinks.

베이비마키

The literal definition of happy place!! - coffee and work done! - I absolutely fell in love with this cute cafe once I had the chance to experience it!! The interior feels so modern and classic, yet, it is the perfect spot if you are the kind of person who enjoys working in crowded or loud places. The cafe provides various options for desserts and refreshers. On top of that, the mini plants for sale makes this place an ultimate favorite and unique. I personally enjoy their crafted Italian sodas and Oreo cheesecake. The reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because of the customer service. The employees were amazing but a little bit of enthusiasm and positive vibes would be much appreciated ~<3

Went here with my friends after not visiting for years and we were pleasantly surprised. Our drinks were good and the treats were also good. There are so many options of things to order. I don’t know what lemonade/drink I ordered but it was delicious and refreshing. I recommend going in the evening time because there are fewer people and more tables to sit and enjoy your treats and drinks.

Gavan

Love this place. Great place to study and all of their drinks taste great.

Eric Uy

Spanish Latte & Quad shot were not bad. Still Pricey for a coffee shop. The match powder used inthe tiramisu was not ideal.

Victoria T

Great lattes! Lots of plugs for laptops to do some work, although it does get quite echo-y and loud when its busy (or when there's a noisy group). Glad to finally have a cafe in this area!

Steve Hewer

Amazing espresso

Chelsea

As others said it's a nice addition to Surrey, especially for those looking to studying. Im happy with the drink and macaron options. Staff are always friendly. The only thing I wish to see is more sustainable options. For example, mugs and glasses for drinking in store. Or even something as simple as a recycling container to put the sleeves! My friends and I have visited so many times, and I always bring the sleeves home to recycle because it's unnecessary waste to throw it out ????

Alexxie Razzie

Love this place! Highly recommend. Their drinks are delicious. Their caramel macchiato is better than Starbucks and we always get their macarons.

Peter Lee

Coffee is really hit and miss here.

Diamond Sutherland

Not a friendly greeting and took forever for 2 drinks even though it was not busy at all... Then he didn't even make one of the drinks right.. disappointing when you're paying $5 for a tea latte. Won't be back here .

Ercument Kaya

Too many people inside, and there is a light smell probably because the air circulation is not enough for the crowd. I offered to keep the door open for a while to barista but the manager rejected. Not a good approach during the covid. I don't think I will come again.

Ara S

Coffee not bad , however the customer service is terrible. I was asking how many types of Coffee ☕ they brew , she gives me a strange look with attitude and says dark roast then medium roast. I said medium roast she pushes the coffee to me and spills some on the counter. No sorry no apology, very bad service and very unwelcoming not friendly at all. All I'm saying attitude is not necessary there are so many Coffee choices out there with better Coffee and better customer service.

Maheen Khan

Cute and cozy cafe. The pastries are pretty good, and the coffee is not bad at all.

Tiffany T

Excellent coffee and customer service! Love the variety of drinks as well. Looking forward to trying their cakes next time. See my photo for the latest menu! :)

Maria Monika Medina

The drinks and food are good. But very unpleasant smell when me and my friends walked-in. There is a gum underneath the table. Improve cleanliness and sanitize the café more.

Ben MyCree

A trendy coffee shop with clean lines and a cool vibe. This is what Guildford needs. Desserts are excellent. My London Fog was very nicely presented with loads of foam, but wasn't nearly hot enough; I had to ask for it to be re-heated which still really didn't really do the job. Two desserts, one London Fog and one latte...$25.00. A bit pricey but keeps out the riff-raff who would hang around all day.

Pauline H

The place is spacious and clean, but the food and drinks were mediocre. It is very loud in here and 80% of the seats are taken up by people who don't even have food or drinks, and are just taking up seats to study or hang out with friends. So you might not even get a spot to sit and drink your coffee.

Shinyu Han

Had their strawberry latte with black currants macaroon ????

Jag Kaile

Best coffee in lower mainland. I drive from abbotsford to have the spanish mocha here. I'm not a big coffee guy otherwise

Rebecca Chong

My experience here was okay. The coffee was pretty good, however the service was not very friendly. The cashier came up to my table to ask us the leave after an hour unless we bought something else. She wasn't very professional about it, as she had some attitude and singled out my table and a table next to us. The table next to us inquired about the timing as they had received their drinks about half an hour ago. The cashier pulled up their receipt on her computer and told them they bought it an hour ago; she told them that they should leave unless they made another purchase. The odd thing about it is that she ignored other people from tables around us that had been there longer- I believe because they had friends who bought a drink to join them. Also, there was no other customers waiting for a seat. Very dissatisfied and disappointed with this service. I will not be coming back again.

P INT.

This cafe is a place I visit a lot and come to regularly for their comfortable studying environment and drinks/food, but I do have to say the staff is often upsetting and even demanding, borderline rude. Out of all the staff working here, there are only 2 that I can say are genuinely accomodating and friendly. The rest seem like they are unhappy with either their jobs or the people they serve. This is unnacceptable customer service and for that, I can't give it more than 2 stars.

Cheryl Herrmann

I've only been here a few times.The staff are always pleasant with each visit. I will certainty come back to this coffee shop.

rkerr97

It's great that we have a place like this in Guildford now. Lots of great desserts. The macarons are really good. This place and Saint Germain Bakery in the mall are seemingly the only places in Guildford where you can get macarons right now and Coffee Monster has the better ones. The coffee here is fantastic as well. This is a really nice spot to just chill with some friends and talk.

rina khan

Love this coffee place, relaxing atmosphere . Great choices of beverages and snacks...????????????????

Lenni Zonta

Found this place by accident a month ago and I'm still thinking about it. Really good drinks, well done.

Amrit Gill

Horrible customer service. Long wait for coffee. The device that they gave me that lets you know when your drink is ready didn’t even work. Place has an odd unhealthy smell in there

Sammy

Great staff, coffee, and atmosphere. My go-to place for coffee ????????

Jasko Ajanovic

One of the best coffee shops in Vancouver but THE best coffee shop in Surrey. Vibe and atmosphere is nice. Perfect place to study or grab a coffee with a friend (or date ;) ) One of the barista's is damn near the best looking guys I've ever seen. You'll know when you see him

Lisa Min

Good coffee but A RUDE STAFF:(

mick loosemore

Warm, friendly indie coffee shop

T. Fast

Food was great, prices were good. Service is a bit slow but that's fine. The only reason I'm not giving it full stars was because there was no one wiping or disinfecting tables between users. They didn't even provide a wipe for us to do it ourselves. So I would recommend that you go, but bring your own disinfecting wipes.
