This is the oldest coffee shop from the origins of the neighbourhood as Little Italy. It's a three generation run cafe where they know their regular customers by name and memorize their orders. It's filled with character, both in the people and the decor.

Sightseeing
Avoid lunch hour on weekends if you want to avoid slow moving crowds thru the market. Definitely look at the shops in the Net Loft and souvenir shops on Duranleau street. There is excellent pottery at BC Pottery studio on Cartwright Street.
