Giovane Caffè

Amazing Italian cafe! The cappuccino and Maritozzi were delicious. Not many places around who make such traditional coffee. Would love to come back every time I visit Vancouver. Reminded me of Italy and their coffee culture.

I’m pretty impressed with this Italian coffee shop! I have been a few times now and so far tried the panino verdura, pistachio tart, amalfi cake, espresso shakerato, marocchino, and latte. The bread for the panino was very fresh and the choice of filling was nice – there are plenty of generic veggie panini out there with the same assortment of roasted vegetables thrown on, but this one was memorable! They have a few vegetarian panini so I’m looking forward to trying them all. The two baked goods I tried were very nice too, particularly the amalfi cake, which has a unique texture with a little bit of a crispy exterior. Their decaf espresso is excellent! The first drink I tried it in was the shakerato and I was really impressed by how sweet and smooth each sip was. The marocchino is a great drink if you like chocolate but don’t want the sweetness of a mocha. The more concentrated drinks are definitely better to highlight the espresso! The drinks come with a little meringue bite when you dine in. I always save mine for later, but they’re delicious!
This is a high end coffee shop and you will pay high end prices, but I don’t think anything’s obscenely expensive. The sandwiches are $12-14, drinks $3.5-6. It’s worth it.
The baristas are all very professional. I find the vibe is a little bit corporate and sterile… it’s located in the lobby of a fancy office building. But the seats are pretty comfortable and everywhere gets a clear window view. There are two “rooms”, one is more of a work area and the other is the “conversation room” – but I see laptops in the conversation room and conversation in the work room, so I don’t know if it really matters where you choose.

Nice cozy place to hang out. Staff are very helpful and polite. The place was nice and comfortable. They have good panini options, pastry and hot/cold drinks. Love this place.

They have good quality cafe mocha ! Would have loved
it if they offered more milk options other than just regular.

Lovely Italian theme caffè. You can get baked goods, paninis and salads. Service was amazing. Everyone one was very kind and attentive. The only downside is that it can get really busy and seating can be limited.
