Went for brunch on Saturday and the line was pretty long, but it honestly flew by. The staff were super efficient and caring and friendly, so the wait didn’t even feel like a big deal. The flat white was so good, the latte art was gorgeous, and I’m low-key obsessed with their avocado and egg sando. Such a great spot overall. Totally get why it’s been named one of the best cafes in the world! I’ll definitely be back!
The architecture of this café is absolutely stunning. Its unique red tulip-shaped design creates a one-of-a-kind atmosphere and makes the whole experience feel special. The café is always busy, which is a great sign, but we decided to enjoy a sunny day on the outdoor patio. We ordered the avocado toast, an almond croissant, a Lavender Matcha Latte, and a chai latte, and everything was delicious. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and it’s also pet-friendly, which is a wonderful bonus. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food and drinks. Overall, an excellent experience I’m coming back 100% ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nemesis Coffee GNW is famous for its 'peeled pomegranate' architecture, making it one of the most Instagrammable cafes in Vancouver. While the food and drinks are solid, the logistics can be tricky! Weekend & Capacity Warning: If you can, **avoid weekends!** The indoor capacity is actually quite small for how popular it is, and you will almost certainly be stuck in a long lineup. Also, don't rely on their website for bookings—the **reservation system didn't work** for me, so it’s best to just walk in and hope for the best. Food, Drinks & Service: The Menu: I ordered a full spread of brunch items and pastries. The food and drinks are good (the croissants are definitely a highlight), but for the price, they aren't 'outstanding.' The Service: I was a bit let down here. The staff weren't very friendly or welcoming, which made the experience feel a bit cold despite the beautiful setting. Summer Patio Tip: With summer coming, the outdoor seating is great, but it gets very hot. They **need more shade trees or umbrellas**, as it’s currently a bit of a heat trap in the direct sun. Parking Logistics: Don't waste your time hunting for a spot. You might get lucky with **street parking**, but your best bet is the **underground parking nearby**. It has an **elevator** that takes you straight up to the cafe area—totally worth it to save the stress! Summary: Go for the cool building and a decent latte, but go on a weekday if you want to actually find a seat!
Nemesis is one of my favorite cafés in Vancouver and a place I keep coming back to. Their pastries and food are consistently outstanding. My absolute favorites are the Avocado Toast and the Pistachio Raspberry Suisse—both are incredibly delicious and always made to perfection. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and provide excellent service every time. If you’re looking for a premium café experience in Vancouver with exceptional coffee, amazing pastries, and high-quality food, Nemesis is definitely one of the best. Highly recommended!
5/5 stars. Absolutely amazing experience at Nemesis Coffee. There was a bit of a line, but it moved super fast and was 100% worth the wait. I had the cruffin and the Mortadella Supreme sandwich, and honestly it was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. My mom got the avocado toast and it was incredible too. The coffee was excellent, and the service was just as good. Definitely coming back.
We celebrated our family member's birthday with breakfast mid-morning today. We appreciated the lovely lady that brought us water and our drinks. It was especially appreciated given we had our hands full with our baby. Top notch customer service. This bumped it from 4 to 5 stars. Pastries were delicious (we ordered ahead - 48 hrs). We enjoyed the pork belly benny and the mortadella sandwich. Enjoying the other goodies later...
