Echo Cafe

This place seems to be run by Persian people as they offer a mix of traditional Western style food, along with some Persian options as well. (eg.Persian Omelette) It's got a nice vibe to it. Love the decor.

My daughter said she couldn't really taste the cheese much in her sandwich, but still enjoyed the sandwich all the same. Her Iced Mocha was very nicely done.

I found my Avocado Toast a bit on the salty side, and wasn't impressed with the egg that sat upon it. Runny yolk is what I like to see, but the yolk in this egg was very dry.

They have a nice selection of cakes in their display case. I might come back here again to have some tea and dessert but don't think I'll bother with their savoury foods again.

Service: Good
Parking: Free parking on the street

I have ordered their English breakfast twice now. I love breakfast and brunch and have been to almost all places in North Vancouver and was excited to find this place on Uber Eats.

Hands down, the best sausages I've ever had at any breakfast place. I love how they make their eggs, and the potatoes and beans are perfect. It's a little on the expensive side, but the quality of the food makes up for it. I can only speak for the English breakfast, though, as that's all I've had so far. Certainly wont be the last.

Echo Cafe is a welcome addition to the North Van community. It has a great modern ambiance with lots of bright colour accent lounge chairs. The seating layout is conducive to socializing and enjoying a light brunch meal (like avocado toast, ham cheese on bread, Persian omelette, soup) with your drink and a slice of cake.

This coffee house is huge and very nice. The staff were very friendly. Oddly, we came on a Sunday, and it was completely dead besides one other person that came in after us. It's noticeable because this place is big.

I ordered a coconut iced coffee that had little bits of milk floating in it...old oat milk? I'm not sure. It didn't taste like coconut at all. It was meh. I didn't take it back...I just decided to drink it lol.

My friend enjoyed her coffee. I thought the ambiance was very nice. Perhaps I would go back and try something else if I was in the area.
They make smoothies as well, so maybe I'd try that.

Brunching through life, one delicious bite at a time!

We Ordered:
Echo Special Plate $19.99 (BACON CHICKEN CHEESE ROLL, EGGS, AVOCADO, WHOLE WHEAT, GREEN SALAD, BAKED CHEESE POTATO & ITALIAN SEASONING)

They have plenty of indoor seating and a few small outdoor tables. The breakfast dishes were delicious and filling. When you visit Echo Cafe expect to see lots of health care workers because it's beside Lionsgate hospital and it's a favourite of the staff there.

I can't wait to go back and try their good looking pastries

The avocado toast and fried egg was delicious. Salad was fine. I really enjoyed the chai latte I had and the restaurant was clean. The service was quite slow for us.

This cafe is a hidden gem tucked away on the side-street of Lonsdale. The environment is very clean and cozy, as well as comfortable with not too loud music and very friendly staff and great costumer service. They have a wide selection of drinks and yummy pastries :)

Menu has changed since our last visit pre-Covid and I'm assuming ownership has changed as well.
Good cross-section of menu options starting with traditional breakfast to Persian inspired breakfast plates.
Value and quality were on par... in other words the price point matched the quantity and quality of food!
Be sure to take away some of the amazing desserts including hand crafted chocolates -- a work of art!

Excellent location for socializing! Right across the street from an open fountain plaza and library. Beautiful tall ceiling, two stories of natural light, fresh decor and comfy and/or practical seating. Whether you come here to work or to hang out, there's a good amount of seating options available. The drinks are delicious. On separate occasions I have had lattes, tea, and London fogs, which were all excellent. If you have the time I highly reccomend ordering 'for here' as their glassware was a highlight of my visits. They served my iced latte in a beautiful glass double walled mug, on a tiny wooden tray. Their tea was served in a cute glass teapot with an infuser inside. They have deserts aplenty, and though I have only tried the cookies I have been eyeing their beautiful cake slices for a special day. Their sandwiches are pretty good, with more consistent results eating in. A little bit pricey, but the panini press makes a huge difference. Lastly for service, ranges from great and kind to quiet and efficient, both which work for me.

This lovely cafe is in my neighbourhood. My husband and I go there for morning coffee on our day off. The patio is nice and clean. Enjoy a cup of oat milk coffee in the mountainous morning breeze is wonderful way to start a new day. They do serve breakfast along with the drink.

There is always a long waiting line even it is only 8 AM, which is a proof that Echo is the favorite spot of a lot of people.
