Great food! Friendly staff. The barista made the most beautiful hot chocolate I've ever seen ❤️
Posh. Try not giving them tips for ordering a small coffee to go.
Delicious
London fog and chai tea latte
Friendly staff, great location, however it would be better if they put some more power outlets around the coffeeshop and not just in that small room by the washrooms.
Really nice little coffee shop, great parking and kind staff
JJ Bean French press is unbeatable.
Had a caffine fit. Sure glad they were there.
Good staff, better coffee. Their muffins are delicious, try the cheese/jalapeño one!
Hit or miss on great coffee...but I do like it there
Friendly staff and good coffee . When we were there, there was plenty of seating and parking was easy . I love that for meetings .
Ok, there are a few things to be careful of when you go to JJ Bean. Don't eat the Very Berry or Chocolate Zucchini muffins. Don't eat the Butter Tarts. Don't eat any of their cookies. Probably avoid the Cinnamon buns, both with or without icing. Probably avoid the Jalapeno Cheddar muffins too. Oh and their is this crumble tart they have, don't eat that one either. If you eat any of the listed items, whenever you see another JJ Bean, even later that same day... you will most likely end up going into get another one of whatever you ate. You might not even know how you got there, then all of a sudden you realize your in in front of a cashier with another food item in your hand while you are reaching for you wallet. Also, if you are the person to take the last of any type of muffin, it is always polite and appropriatly Canadian to look to your left at the people in line behind you and apologize for robbing someone else of the yummy opportunity.
I love this coffee shop! It has great baked goods and the atmosphere is idilic for coffee with friends or for studying.
No idea never been there. Annoying to be asked how my experience was.
The best service and coffee anywhere.
Great local cafe. Relaxed atmosphere with social distancing measures in place. Lots of menu choices from sandwiches to cookies to hot and cold drinks.
Very poor service, she made a mistake on the size of the drink we ordered, when I went I ask her about it ,she wanted me to bring back the cup so she can added more coffee to that and give the large coffee that I ordered originally. Seriously ????????
This team works hard, is knowledgeable and genuinely friendly.
Great coffee. Wonderful place to meet up with friends. Fire place, private room, patio, comfortable seating, great staff, what's not to love?
Spacious café with great drinks!
Great atmosphere, even better coffee. This is great place to bring a friend for a quick snack and chat. There is plenty of seating inside and out, plenty of free parking. I highly recommend this location.
Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, tasty snacks.
Always a pleasure to have a hand made espresso!
Its an Ok place. Not very clean or tidy, the employee are not the friendliest and they dont have variety in what they offer. I wont give it another try.
Best mocha lattes ever! The coffee is delicious. Very high quality beans. Will always come here for my coffee fix.
Great coffee, and lots of places to sit down.
Prices have been going up and up and up. My $3.05 coffee went up to $3.45 in under a year. Food items gave gotten ALOT smaller and the prices went up on those too. Used to go in all the time but I've made my last visit
A good place for getting some coffee / tea
Always enjoy setting my appointments here. A really good place to meet with your clients or friends if you are looking for a good coffeeshop.
I drove about 20 minutes to get to JJ Bean as it was the only coffee shop open after 8pm. Glad I did...the place is magic. Great atmosphere - really chill especially out on their terrace. Feels like I’m at a lounge. And of course the coffee was perfect. I left feeling completely inspired and hovering above my own boots.
Great coffee but the service was a little awkward.
The best fast food ever because it is healthy, tastes good and you can trust them for high quality ingredients...unlike any other typical garbage franchise.
Amazing coffee, food and staff :)
Always epic. They spend the extra money on nigher quality ingredients and a bit larger portions than most places- and at their currents rates it's worth the price for everything. Muffin are well properly done, hearty and filling; a meal-and they're clean, not filled with freeze dried fruit and just sugar. There's real flavour!
I like jjbeans for a great cup of coffee and other goodies.
Very few coffee shops can compete with JJ Bean. Always a pleasure.
Absolutely terrible service, it's a shame that they hire certain people there.
Dope staff! Shout out to all their hard work during this pandemic.
Since becoming pregnant, my sole goal in life is mercilessly hunting down and devouring baked goods. The iced apple fritter at Park & Tilford's JJ Bean is the best damn fluffy bit of heaven I've found on the North Shore. And yes, I have compared it to those pastries found at dedicated bakeries and pretentious cafes. JJ Bean 10/10 best baked good. I'll be back.
I'm bean makes a wonderful latte. And their muffins are a meal in themselves.
Great coffee. Great place to meet and hangout.
JJ Bean is a local treasure. If you aren’t drinking local coffee in Vancouver -Give your head a shake! Buy local. Sure the beans come from elsewhere but keep the profits local. JJ makes wonderful coffee and the people love what they do. This is a great space with a good vibe and you should be here drinking coffee.
Best coffee from a north Vancouver coffee shop in a long time, excellent service and all round great space.
Good coffee, huge cookies
Great place to meet people or just work on your laptop. Plus, they have great coffee!
Had awesome mint tee there. Will highly recommend
Best coffee shop in North America
Real friendly staff and great coffee. Used to work in the area and would grab an Americano daily. My trips in are far less frequent but the quality and standard haven’t changed.
I love coming to this JJ Bean. The interior is cozy yet modern with study nooks for students. The muffins are always delicious and the coffee is not overpriced. Definitely a nice coffee shop to visit.
Love the atmosphere. Great staff. Neat meeting room.
Cozy neighbourhood spot and I love it. Friendly staff and great coffee
Great service very busy place
Very cozy friendly staff great drinks and food.Parking is fairly close and good. Good for groups or just someone wanting a nice place to go.
perfect coffee, nice environment ....
My favorite JJ bean around great staff and great coffee with tons of delicious food options to chose from.
Got a hot chocolate which had delicious whipping cream. I cannot express just how sweet the hot chocolate was. Too sweet for my tastes and I love sugar.
It just a awsome place for good coffee and the food is great to
Great people. Great coffee ☕️
Love the fireplace and the hot chocolate
Overall pretty good, but make sure the older guy that frequently is on bar does not make your drink - ask for another employee if you don't want to be disappointed.
Coffee is consistently delicious. I love their breakfast sandwiches and scones. Great staff.
Quick service, friendly staff and quality products.
English breakfast tea terrible. Would not give a second tea bag like Starbucks does usually without asking. They have us a second cup but it was just as weak. Why cant they just have a basic orange pekoe tea
Great place for a good coffee and a great wrap. Casablanca wrap is a must try, vegan and amazing!
Love this coffee shop for school work but a little confused by the no Wifi policy during lunch hours... The last four weeks I've been here, the place has only been half full during this time, so not sure why they're turning it off. I understand they may want to dissuade students from camping all day long, but there are only power outlets along one small wall off to the side, as well as a private study room. The rest of the cafe, plus the outside patio, is usually always open to the remaining patrons, so it doesn't seem as though students can feasibly take over the whole place. I study at the JJ Bean on Main Street as well and they never turn off their Wifi, despite being packed all the time. Anyway, I'll likely still keep coming, just wanted to offer my two cents. For students who come often and spend their money here, the gesture would be appreciated. Plus, I'm sure the non-studious patrons would appreciate it as well. It's 2019, turn it back on! :D
A nice atmosphere and it's got a real fireplace. The food is good too
The beef short rib is amazing
Very friendly staff, we loved the Iced Latte and i like the cute little garden ambiance..
The cinnamon buns are to die for! The best!
Good service and good selection of treats
Great, polite, and expedient service every time
Great coffee, warm and cozy atmosphere and endless selection of creamers at the condiments area (Milk, skim milk, Soy, Almond and Cream...at no extra cost! Lol). It's also next to Park & Tilford Gardes which is a great little spot to pause at.
First off, very friendly professional service. I ordered a Cold brew coffee with not too much ice. Prices are not bad for the products they have on their menu. When I got my cold brew, it literally looked like water down tea. I put a little bit of cream in it and sat down and tried it only to find that all I could taste was cream. When I ordered the coffee, it seemed to be a bit of a problem because the waitress wasn’t sure if they had any, and she ran back-and-forth from the front of the store to the back of the store trying to find it I guess. When I finally got it, she had taken it out of a 1 L prepackaged JJ Bean cold brew container. So after tasting it and not really being all that happy with it I went back up to the counter and politely asked if their cold brew was really really weak when it came out of that prepackaged 1 L container versus the stuff that they would make in the store. The waitress asked one of the barista‘s, and she commented that it doesn’t even look like cold brew coffee and yes it was a lot weaker. I asked if they could just put a shot of coffee into it and they were happy to do that for me, and in the end it tasted like it should. So basically, the stuff that they’re selling by the litre is watered down by comparison to the stuff that they would actually make in the store. This kind of thing just makes me shake my head because they’re affectively admitting that if you order a coffee from the barista it will be nice and strong, but if you buy their prepackaged cold brew it’s going to be hugely watered down by comparison. So if it’s a bad product why sell it at all? I doubt I’ll ever go back and order their cold brew coffee again.
I had to use JJ Bean as a temporary office for a few hours while I waited for my car to be fixed. I'm glad I chose it. Firstly they have a great selection of actually tasty tea (I had 2 cups of English Breakfast, 1 cup of Masala and 1 cup of Earl Grey, loved them all) and unique, freshly baked muffins. I then settled down and put my headphones on, the wifi was fast and I was able to concentrate well. If the weather had been nicer, I could have gone outside to to use the patio for this. The staff were happy to refill my teacup with hot water when I got low, and no one minded that I was there for a few hours. Furthermore, if you really like their products, you can buy some of them to take home (e.g. loose leaf tea or coffee beans).
PATHETIC!! You NEVER have food. "We get it at 9am" oh so you mean when everyone is already at work? Get it together!
Love their coffee, this location is popular though, except a line up!
Great place to spend some time over a nice drink by the fire and the outlet bar for laptopping. Great staff, people are talking, great atmosphere
i love the layout of this place. if you have work that needs to be done, come here and grab a coffee and comfy chair. with its standard coffee house music you can zone in a do the work that you needed to get done.
Amazing staff, great coffee everytime
Beautiful interior and super yummy coffee
Top notch coffee, probably one of the best cups to be had on the north shore. The shop itself is has the perfect atmosphere!
I used to come to this coffee shop all the time to study. I’d always buy multiple drinks and food while there but now that majority of the seating is laptop free I’m afraid I’ve been going to Starbucks now. It’s a shame. I used to really like this place.
Great coffee, and the delicious muffins are massive.
Very good coffee
The store itself was ok, service was quick and the drip coffee is good. The store requires maintenance. Some chairs have fabric hanging underneath. Many …
Great service. Great coffee. Ambience is nice. A good place to go and read or whatever. Free and ample parking.
It has one of the best outdoor yards with wooden benches in a quiet location for sitting and have great coffee!
Excelent. Great coffee
I love this JJ. Great atmosphere and amazing team of baristas. Usually really busy on weekends.
Great place! Super nice place to relax and great coffee.
Coffee was OK and baked goods wonderful. But pushing laptop users into the back suggests that those of us who like to work on breaks or meeting clients are second class citizens. Not quite back of the bus, but segregation appears to be the objective.
Awesome! Tables have been rearranged to follow the new covid restrictions. A great place to start my day.
Very disorganized... I ordered a drip coffee and they said it would take a couple of minutes ... Sat the for 15 minutes.. Got tired and asked what happened to the coffee.... They had forgotten about it completely. Very poor customer service. And they ask for a tip when you pay... I go to JJ bean once every 6 months... Always a bad experience. Would never go there again. Starbucks 2 doors down has great customer service.
I love this place; however, I don't know why sometimes they close at 7 ( I think Wednesdays) and they have not updated that on google! So every time they tell me to leave because they are closing while I thought they would be open till 9! Coffee is ok, but I love muffins here ????
Great coffee and pastries, breakfast wraps are especially good. Large private meeting room is available and indoor and outdoor seating for larger parties too.
Always great food and coffee!
Amazing iced mocha
Always a great spot for a coffee. Yiu can't really go wrong at any of the JJ Bean location. The coffee is great, environment is consistent, and whether working or playing, just a great place.
Meal type
Service
Very pleasant busy urban cafe experience with modern cozy interior and close North Shore mountain views. High quality JJ Bean espresso coffees and gorgeous muffins. First rate 'get together' cafe.
Love stopping by here on the way to anywhere in North Van. Great local hang out for coffee and then go check out the tilford garden right beside it.
Great coffee highly-trained Baristas.
Wonderful service and products. Pastries and food made in-house. Consistently perfect drinks.
Dine in
Probably an unpopular opinion but I never seem to be satisfied with the coffee, it's always a bit too cool for my liking. Having said that, I should ask for extra hot I guess.
Too bad they are limiting wifi between 10am-2pm on weekdays. Good thing Starbucks is a few meters away and there are plenty of other coffee shops in North Vancouver.
Very Cozy! Amazing staff and food. Breakfast Chorizo Wrap ❤
Great cafe and great coffee, we use their beans for making espresso at home as well.
Great local coffee shop. Clean. Friendly service. Tasty treats. I had the Matcha Latte with almond milk and it was made just right. Seating inside and out. Covered outdoor seating area also has a heater. My favourite spot! Staff friendly. Clean inside. Lots of parking available. This place is always busy. A popular spot to share a coffee with a friend or a quiet sanity break on your own.
This place is awesome!!! I'd say that the great coffee or freshly baked treats make this place but that would only be half true... The staff makes this place what it truly is. Friendly, funny, cheerful, professional and they always pour a …
One of my wife's favorite coffee places on the Shore. Nice atmosphere, usually you can find a seat. Very accommodating staff, they even have a small meeting style room.
Friendly. Clean. Always good.
Lots of seating and super friendly staff! The railtown dark roast is amazingly dark and smooth.
J.J Bean is by far my favourite coffee shop. This location is conveniently located next to a great Garden location with flowers, ponds, sculpture s etc.
Good coffee, very busy and gets noisy
Excellent staff, good fresh roasted beans and a nice selection of bakery goods & sandwiches, wraps, etc. During COVID-19 restrictions the staff are able to sanitize tables for indoor seating. The tables are well marked, whether they're sanitized or not sanitized.????????????
Good as always..
Always busy but good service and coffee.
Cozy place, very good coffee... I love it!
Strange experience. I ordered a latte on a busy afternoon and waited in the line for pick up. 5min later, nothing had came up for me. I decided to sit down and wait until they call my name. Another 10min later, I asked them if they have an order for me. They said that they called my name and did not hear anything back. Then they asked what my order was and gave it to me in a very short time. The strange part was "the looks." Two ladies working there gave me the strangest looks as if I am being out of my mind lol. The thing is, I may have missed the call. I did not dispute anything. I was ready to say I am sorry I missed their call. But suddenly the passive aggression I recieved overwhelmed me and left a distaste in my latte. ????#badpuns
Closed my shop for a few minutes and attempted to purchase a pound of coffee from this place. Here’s what I receive; “Sorry we didn’t order enough of that blend and what we have is needed for our customer’s drinks.” Translation: We have the coffee blend you asked for but we are not going to sell it to you because we can make more money serving smaller amounts to our drink customers. We don’t care about your time or if you have other commitments go ahead and drive to another location, no problem right? Really something….
I have always loved JJ Bean..Railway is amazing coffee!
One of the best local coffee shops around. Strong drip coffee and hefty baked goods. Decent music.
expensive and dirty. They could do with cleaning their floors and using some disinfectant.
Excelllent Best I ever had.
With the mess of C19 affecting restaurants, many of the nice coffee spots closed up. This JJ Bean is still around and as i remember it from 2 years back. Great and comforting, we all need to support those small biz who kept going. Friendly, delicious light fare, go there!
Love love their coffee. Staff is always great.
My all time favorite coffee shop. Everything, and I mean, EVERYTHING is good here
Comfy and nice staff. Love their "Railtown" dark roast
Great coffee and great muffins. Very berry rocks
One of my favourite JJBeans for sure. Super nice staff -friendly and helpful. Of course all the best coffee & food
Great single origin roasts. Taste the world of coffee Starbucks doesn't have a clue about.
Spacious location with ample seating. However, can get crowded mornings and afternoons. Love the gas fireplace, adds a nice homey touch.
Nice and cozy place in a not so busy plaza, friendly staffs, coffee and sandwich is freshly prepared.
Good place to get a coffee. The coffee is very good, nice full body and flavorful. The lay out is nice big open and lots of seating. The outdoor section is fantastic, lots of seats and nice big tables. Get a coffee and walk through the park next door too.
Im a regular here. Love it. Only complaint is no wifi at lunch hours. But thats cuz its too busy then, so cant really hold it against them.
Very busy coffee shop. Excellent coffee and service!
Best place to study in the north shore
My friend and I went in for our favourite treats at Park & Tilford a few weeks ago. We definitely aren’t ones to complain, but both of our coffees were undrinkable. We had them to go and decided next visit we would tell the staff. Tonight we were craving our JJ and went in for our treats. We told the girl about our experience and she immediately blamed the coffee machine and that was it. To my surprise no effort was made to make that right. At 15 mins to close a staff member came round and while my friend and I were in a very private close conversation, we were interrupted and told that they were closing in 15 mins and to “drink up, but enjoy your coffee.” At 10pm the cafe was full of people and she came by yet again to inform us that they were closed and said to my friend “chug chug chug your coffee”. I left and my friend came out to tell me that as she left the cafe, this same staff member had passively-aggressively (across the entire cafe and in front of other patrons) been trying to get her to come back and “put away your dishes”
Great atmosphere and quality.
JJ Bean was fun. Thank you
Always the best! Worth the drive from Abby to get some real coffee.
Best coffee in vancouver and excellent customer service
One of my favourite coffee shops on the North Shore. Very nicely decorated, good atmosphere and staff are always friendly.
I come here a lot and love the coffee.. the coffee is great, but it wouldnt be nearly as good without the awesome people working there. It blows me away sometimes that they can not only remember my name but what I drink too!! They have all their baking done in the back and the most awesome cinnamon rolls in town - good muffins too!!
Located at the small shopping plaza close to a local park and movie theater.This plce has a nice interior with cozy chairs around a fireplace. Friquented by locals and students who also like to work there while having their cup of joy. Good selection of baked goods to go with your cofee or tea. You can choose from the list of specialty cofees or teas or suggest your own brew. Nice spot for a someone who is looking for the alternative to Starbucks, but not ready to venture too far.
Friendly staff, good coffee, and a fantastic lounge area. Highly recommend.
Best muffins ever. Best outside seating. A little pricy
I do love me some medium roast drip coffee!
Great staff , lucho is a great host and always makes you feel welcome and makes a great coffee Always fast and friendly. Coffee is also great and employees have great training. Would be nice if this location was open later Could be open til midnight and still be busy!
really enjoy the coffee here, and all of the jj locations. nice atmosphere and consistently great products.
Great coffee and excellent staff here.
One of JJ Bean's best locations.
Great staff, good coffee and great environment. Coffee roasting style isn’t my favourite hence the 1 point off :)
Very nice and kind staffs. The fantastic bonfire. I love this place :)
Enjoy going there for a coffee after a walk through the Park and Tilford. My elderly parents are regulars: service is prompt and professional; the premises is clean; and the ambience is warm and welcoming in the winter and cool and fresh in the summer. You won't be disappointed!
Always great,,, so far...
One of the best oat milk lattes and mochas. However, always very busy and seating capacity is limited. One of the Korean male staff was impolite and informed me of a 45 minute stay policy until I was half way into my work/study. Nowhere in the cafe is there a sign that indicates that. I also had to ask him to clean the table as it was left very dirty. I have been coming here as my go to work/study shop on the weekends but I’ll be changing shops. Also, no outlets to plug in your laptop.
Nice! Great coffee
Decent food and beverages. Outside patio is available on dry days.
Great coffee and great staff! The muffins are delicious and fresh baked on-site!! Funny how there is always a lineup out the door and their big competitors are a few stores away. That says a lot...
The coffee is not the best... But goddam those muffins and baked goods are the best in town
Great food and cold brew. Relaxing patio.
I always enjoy talking to the staff, they are very friendly and make a mean mocha shiver
My favourite JJ. The staff are lovely and it's atmosphere is very chill. Love it!
Great food and coffee, a little pricy though
Always easy to park
Love that they have a binder with a list of all the ingredients in the food served. It's so great for anyone with allergies and very tasty too. The coffee and fireplace are perfect for the fall.
Nice, warm and cozy, and I like their croissants!
I don't usually like JJ coffee, but this location in particular has super friendly and fun to talk to staff, and they must have their machine "dialed in" to the perfect setting because I havent had a bad cup of coffee here yet. It's especially nice because the location is cozy, the patio is nice and they are right next to the gardens if you fancy a nice stroll while you sip. One of my favorites.
Wonderful staff and Amazing coffee! What more can you ask for a great start to your morning routine? Highly recommend the gluten free muffin options and the wraps.
Muffins here are out of this world
JJ Bean is hands down the best tasting coffee probably in the world!! The staff are very kind, outgoing, and friendly. It’s the best way to start my mornings :-) Lately I’ve been obsessed with their oatmeal jammer cookie ???? and sometimes I get 2!
Chocolate Zucchini muffins!! Thank me later
Coffee was delicious. Nice atmosphere with a beautiful gas fireplace and a delectable outside patio
They have vegan cookies, muffins, wraps, banana bread etc ????
Friendly staff. Comfy chairs. Nice fireplace
Really nice café, great coffee and food.
JJ Bean is always good. Regardless of location. Best coffee shop ever. Good food, baked goods and of course , hot beverages.
Good coffee. Casual food options (wraps & soups) are good. Baked goods like muffins are top notch and the staff is friendly with prompt service. Can be very busy at times. It's my go-to coffee shop.
Always fantastic. Great staff and great products.
Great coffee, tasty food and comfortable surroundings
Last two times I came in, they had a guy power washing the patio. Could not stand the noice and left after an hour. Felt like I am next to a construction site. Today the same guy is doing the same thing. I am not sure how often this happens, but this is annoying. The management should schedule this maintenance for a time when the place is closed. I like the interior, but how could I enjoy it with that noice?! I hope they do something about this. I am having the power washing service after hours will cost them more, but I think bad reviews like mine will cost them more. I am sure I am not the only person who find this annoying.
What’s to say, I love JJ Bean and this location makes a great latte
This busy coffee house has a great vibe. Super interesting crowd with a major movie production studio nearby. Outstanding selection of fresh baked muffins and epic cinnamon buns. Wow espresso coffee. This location includes an inviting deck next to the Lovely Park and Tilford Gardens (see included pics of these gardens). We like that Wifi is turned off during peak times to discourage students from camping out there all day long, making it easier for more diners to get a table.
I prefer to support local over chain shops but Starbucks' COVID precautions are head and shoulders over this JJ location. Staff aren't wearing masks despite working so closely. Other than some tape on the floor there is no distancing even between tables or customers. Also, 11 people on laptops were using all the tables so we had to run through the rain with our food and eat it in our car. This isn't fair. I'm not sure how long one latte buys you a table of four during coffee rush hour but apparently there's no enforcement of loitering at all. I remember they were going to turn off WIFI during peak hours but this obviously didn't last. I won't be back until certain policies are in place.
Fast and friendly, the chocolate zucchini muffin is a favorite.
Great food and service, however, I've had to go elsewhere on numerous occasions when I've gone for a breakfast wrap and a coffee. They seem to be sold out of all wraps by 9:30am every morning. May I suggest having more stock if its that popular.
Excellent service, great staff, friendly happy people. Gluten free stuff available that tastes great. I detoured back off highway today about 15 minutes because of this. Thank you.
Breakfast
Great coffee, nice friendly atmosphere.
This place discriminates, not going to return
I like jjbeans as there muffins are huge and fresh and like the aka water they sell
Very busy in the mornings but they have good coffee.
First of all, I was able to order what I wanted, off of menu that looked so good. The prices are reasonable for everything on the menu.
Local bean roaster with excellent fair trade beans and lovely selection of goodies. Staff is friendly and the setting is relaxing.
Great place for a late evening treat and fantastic specialty coffee ☕
Great coffee and food, super friendly staff all the time. 10/10 would recommend, even during peak hours where the line goes out the door. Worth waiting for.
Very good hot chocolate ????!!!
