Pastries Without Parallel
a Quick Bite

Since I arrived in Vancouver, I’ve been trying to find a decent coffee shop in my area where I could write but have been consistently disappointed with the overpriced, generic cafe food in the coffee shops along 4th. But after discovering 49th Parallel Coffee Roasters, I haven’t had to go anywhere else again. They have great coffee, a regular for 1.69, and even better espresso, a double for 2.25, but it’s the pastries that keep pulling me back every week.
