Reviews of Take Five Café (Coffee Shop)

Alex Ginogino

Better coffee than Starbucks

William Carnell

Horrendously overpriced coffee!! I paid $3.40 for a 10 ounce cup! My first and last visit to this cafe. Not worth visiting this establishment.

Viktoriya Kravets

Amazing local coffee shop. The staff are super friendly and the coffee and pastry taste delicious

Kyle Bailey

Stopped in for a coffee and a bite to eat with a client who is across the street. Coffee was excellent and the snack was equally satisfying. Not my usual coffee hang out but if I'm in the area and don't feel like my usual 'mermaid' based coffee then I'll be back in here for my caffeine fix.

Ashton Ostrander

Food and coffee are of good quality. Interior is clean and inviting. Free books inside if its raining. Patio option for enjoying a breakfast burrito and joe while watching the sunrise over the Pattullo.

Timothy Wiles

Nina Halliday

Bob

Great coffee. Cosy environment. And their drinks come with a small cookie!

Andra Ciocan

Cozy little nook. Great cup of coffee! They even do the cute little designs on-top of each cup of a hot drink.

Katie Piper

Super friendly staff! I always felt welcomed and thanked for my business. Plus their London Fogs are amazing!

Ed

A nice selection of food (wraps, sandwiches) and pastries. Their coffees are mostly dark roast so they kind of all taste the same and their milk based drinks are average for the price you pay, which is why it gets a average score. That said, the staffs are 5 star, always friendly and quick in servicing.

Sarah Douglas

They have awesome coffee and much better than Starbucks but they keep forgetting espresso in my egg nog latte. Every. Time.

Anson Li

There's a lot of competition around the area. 2 Starbucks at least. However, Take 5 is always the coziest and less busy.

Auxiliary Attempts

When you order a mocha but all the chocolate is at the bottom.

Alt BraKz

Here every morning, better coffee than most other places

Scot Stewart

Casual. Good coffee and ok service. Traffic and construction make it too loud for the patio.

Giovani Roveroto

Great pastries

Ziggy Linklater

Great oat milk lattes!

Jeanelle Methot

Really friendly staff. Yummy muffins. Always great coffee and specialty drinks.

Ken Burke

Mexi wrap is good. could be served with green salsa. Service is good and friendly. Coffee very good. Nice place. not a huge food menu but not bad for a coffee shop. I will go back.

Nicole CW

What a lovely welcome! The girl serving coffee in the morning was a SUPERSTAR!! I only stopped because I had a medical specialist appointment fortunately my cast was coming off so I won't be in the neighbourhood again for some time. But wow! Good coffee, crafted perfectly by the skilled barista but her service was the standout here - easily 10 stars. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll see you!

Elise Weatherby

Nice coffee and espresso drinks! Small cozy place for enjoying a beverage and little bit to eat. Most of the seating is long bench style great for meet people but not ideal for trying to get work done on a lap top.

Ashley Fontaine

I absolutely love this Cafe! The lady behind the counter is so sweet and makes my drink perfect every time. I've been loving the zebra mocha with lactos milk and of course keep the whip. She puts extra drizzle on top! I had the lemon square today and it tasted like another!! ;)

Adrian Z

Awesome and unique coffee shop, great fraps. They serve liquor in coffee as well but you must drink in the cafe.

Kateryna Melnykova

Very bright (too bright for laptop screen) location. The staff is friendly, pastries are delicious and fresh, coffee is high-end.

Tim Coleman

The coffee here is always excellent, and the staff always seem to be happy, and helpful. The eats are delicious, I really like the carrot cake with cream cheese icing.

Paul Dirks

Love Adrian and his crew at Take Five. Very friendly. Excellent Coffee. Great place to get some work done while sipping.

Matthew Benson

Good drinks. Nice staff. Delicious desserts and snacks. Every so often they are short staffed and if it's busy your drink can take a bit... sometimes up to 15 minutes. Not a fast food place so don't expect it to be. You go there to relax not to rush.

Megan Little

At any time of the day, the coffee is great, the staff excellent and always ready to ask about your day!

Mohammad Siddiqui

Nice patio Lacks space though.

Alicia Tremayne

There's gluten free options

Good coffee. Good service. Nice change from Starbucks. Music can be a bit grating if trying to relax. Very slow internet should be fixed.

Hestia

Their floors are very clean.

Dave Bushell

A lot of different options. Muffin was super fresh and yummy!

Rivendell Arewen

I can honestly say they have one of the best caramel machiatto in town. For me it was the best one I've had in a very veryyy long time. I will definitely be getting my coffee from take five every chance I get. Only wish I discovered this lovely Cafe sooner.

K Slugo

In the Morning Brit is a hell of a server! So friendly and very respectful!

I like it there, fast service, nice people, having that couch ???? makes me feel warm, kind im at my grandma place. Love it.

Alnoor

Coffee was a cold would have preferred a little hot. 30 min seating limit due to covid when busy. Place is not too big but some locals like to gang out there. Has lunch type food as well fir quick bite.

Emad

Bakery is not fresh and heating them in microwave make them more rubbery

Anita Attwal

Charged $5.50 for a half full bowl of soup and when asked about it they indicated that's how it is for one ladle of soup. Dissatisfied with my experience

Grace Dominelli

Very pleasant and clean

Douglas Smith

Nice, fresh brewed coffee on an open patio

Rojwol Shrestha

It is not just a coffee that drew my attentions. Unlike the other cafe, I realize that baristas does not only serve a cup of coffee but also add small details such as warming your cup, serving with smile, attentive, and making sure that we are comfortable. I highly recommend the location not only for coffee or other drinks but also for your catering needs. Thank you for the pleasant experience!

rose javaheri

The service was good but the food is awful. Their chicken chorizo wrap was only bread and rice. There was exactly 2 beans and 3 corns and no trace of any chicken! The Americano was only ok which is hard to mess up!

Ti

I was at Royal Columbian for a few days and had some Cappucchinos at Starbucks... Too bad I didn't find this nice coffee shop earlier. The Cappucchino is ten times better than SB and the selection of snacks looks good to.

Marlene Philip

It was a very warm day, we walked in to a most comfortable, cute setting. Cozy. Coffee was lovely & the morning muffin was moist & tasty. My friends cranberry muffin was very dry. Service was great. We'll return

Very relaxing. Staff very friendly

Al Cohol

Filming in the area and decided to check them out. Got the Americano and was just what I needed.

Leslie Hamilton

They have the best coffee in New West. Their food is also excellent. Service is prompt and very pleasant. Even the decor is lovely. Parking is free underneath Thriftys . I think they need support from the locals as Starbucks have moved in down the street. Come on New West; support the little guy who does a fantastic job!!!

Vladimir Kozhekin

Very friendly staff and great coffee!We was with 6 kids and it great experience.Hot chocolate,mocha latte and caramel macchiato was amazing)

Only place I go for coffee now! Awesome coffee and awesome service from Brittney, great way to start my morning ????

Shanon Slemko

After being prompted for a tip and then having the server make us get up for our coffee in an otherwise empty cafe, I was less than impressed. Bonus stars for quality coffee and being licenced.

Mat Tam

Hi, why cold pastry heated in the microwave??

Russell Bruce

I liked this place, nice staff with a decent selection for a nice little café. Personally I got a large black coffee and a scone, absolutely delicious. Will definitely be checking this place out again when I'm back in this area.
