Artigiano - Howe Street

Chai latte, Carmel macchiato, and house drip. Great coffee! Egg ham breakfast wrap wasn't so great! The egg sandwich croissant was delicious. Barista was nice. Little loud environment but nice to just have a sip of coffee and enjoy people watching.

Recently, I stumbled upon a coffee haven in Vancouver that quickly became my go-to spot during my stay - Caffe Artigiano. Nestled conveniently within walking distance from my hotel and office, this cafe proved to be a delightful escape from my hectic business trip.

What truly set my experience apart was the exceptional cardamom latte I ordered. The aromatic blend of spices and coffee, tailored exactly to my liking, was nothing short of perfection. I prefer my lattes on the creamier side, with just a hint of espresso, as I'm not much of a heavy coffee drinker. The baristas at Caffe Artigiano were more than accommodating, customizing my drink to match my preferences. Their willingness to adjust and the skillful execution resulted in a satisfying latte.

The cafe itself radiates a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect place for anyone looking to enjoy a quiet moment or a casual conversation. It was rainy during my stay, so the glass windows were great for people watching and enjoying the spring rain. Despite its popularity, the space never felt overcrowded either, maintaining a peaceful ambiance that I greatly appreciated.

Nice little coffee shop with limited seating, but great coffee and a good selection of pastries, muffins, etc. friendly staff.

There are so many Caffe Artigianos in downtown. I still remembered when they first opened up, they focussed more on the food. Now they are mostly known for their coffee. There is almost a Caffe Artigiano in about 10 mins walking distance from each other in the center of downtown. We got the French Press Coffee for $4.75. It is very inexpensive for such a big cup that you get. The interior was clean when we went. The cafe isn't big but they had enough seats when I went. Service was great. Their coffee was very good that I had to ask about their beans. Their beans are on the higher end and it depends on flavor. The long bean for around 350g is $18 which is a bit expensive and would probably work out the same if you bought a cup at the cafe instead. The cafe is very bright and is comfortable to sit and have a conversation in.

We will definitely be back. It is one of the better cafe/ coffee in town.

How does this place have such good reviews? Pastries are disappointing- tried the chocolate, prosciutto and egg croissants, all were such a let down. Please improve your croissant recipe. Coffee was fine but forgettable.

Serviceable - we've been to other locations of this same coffeeshop and it's always been a pleasant experience. My breve was properly made and the barista was actually very interested to know that it was satisfactory to my taste.

Aromatic coffee and nice spacious location, great to people watch, but the downtown location still makes better lattes and cappuccinos for whatever reason it seems more rich and flavorful.

Caffè Artigiano continues to grow & get more - cool like dat - with this new location downtown.

Very chic interior = I could just hang out here for a bit.

My go to at CA has always been the - Spanish Latte.

I usually don't need to sweeten it or add anything - it comes out tasting that good on delivery.

This location is gorgeous.

Beautiful wall art takes the mind away from work stress.

Steps away from the Waterfront, grab a coffee or ice latte & head on down there if you don't want to chillout here.

I can't see why you wouldn't hang out here, cause this location has got good vibes.

CA has been operating in Vancouver for 20 years aka - they know what they're doing.

I passed by this place a couple of times lately. This place seemed like always crowded and looked so busy from outside. I finally had a chance this morning to try their coffee and breakfast menu. Overall, the food was decent and the coffe was excellent! I would not get the yogurt next time though :(
