There is no better way to start the day than with a proper cortado or cappuccino before heading out to explore the city. If you follow along on social, you’ll know I run nothing short of overly-caffeinated.

Before heading to Vancouver, I eagerly hopped online to check out the coffee scene. From quaint spaces to lively neighborhoods, Vancouver had it all. My eye was on spaces where the coffee quality and service matched design. After a few days in Vancouver, there were so may places to love. 

Here are 8 coffee shops not to miss in Vancouver

These are the sites I use most to book my own trips. Using the links below is a great way to support Bon Traveler’s travel journalism at no extra cost to you. If you need help organizing your itinerary, get my free travel itinerary template here.

1. Book Your Accommodations

I use Booking.com for hotels and Airbnb for vacation rentals. They have the biggest inventory and consistently offer the best rates.

2. Book Your Rental Car

Self-driving is the best way to explore most destinations. I use Discover Cars for our rental cars, select full coverage insurance, and opt for a reputable company like Alamo, Hertz, or Sixt.

3. Book Your Tours & Experiences

I use Viator, Airbnb, and Get Your Guide to find the best tours and experiences. They are my favorite tour search engines. I always check all three as their inventory varies depending on the destination.

4. Book Your Private Transfers

For easy, reliable private transfers, I use Welcome Pickups. It’s my go-to for arranging a driver in advance — whether it’s an airport pickup, a hotel-to-hotel transfer, or a day trip. The experience is seamless, with English-speaking drivers and upfront pricing, so you can travel stress-free at every stage of your trip.

5. Get Cell Data for Your Trip

I use Holafly for international cell data. Their unlimited data eSIMs are easy to install, activate instantly on arrival, and let you skip local SIM cards and expensive roaming fees.

6. Don’t Forget Travel Insurance

I never leave the country without travel insurance. It provides comprehensive protection in case anything goes wrong (ie. illness, injury, theft, or cancellations).

My favorite companies that offer the best coverage and rates are:

  1. Nice photos. Every coffee shop looks so friendly and inviting! I’m so sad I missed them while I was in Vancouver. Guess I’ll have to remember them for a future re-visit!
