Cafe Medina Vancouver Reviews
Amazing food and great service.
The avocado toast fresh squeezed OJ was phenomenal . Jaelin was an amazing server and went the mile to ensure my family and I were well taken care of.
Worth the Wait
Great vibe. Wonderful good and service. We arrived for breakfast and were fortunate to sit at the bar. It was ca. 0840 and the place was nearly packed; later a line formed outside. "The La Santé" was served on a charcuterie board with a lo

We tried Cafe Medina while staying a couple blocks away so we could put our names down and pack in our hotel rather than deal with a crazy wait time. The food was good and atmosphere really nice, but service was slow and portions were huge, couldn�

So yummy! We had to stop by briefly to try the leige waffles and paired it with hot matcha + tea. The waffles were so warm, soft and the perfect touch of sweetness. I just checked if I'll be able to grab more before my morning flight tomorrow.
Amazing brunch spot.
Recommend going in advance to get a reso as it usually takes about 30-45 mins to be seated. Resos must be made in person or $10 donation per person online. Very aesthetic interior and great service.
Great for breakfast
Lovely atmosphere, service friendly, easy to find, food healthy and tasty. Avocado and salmon was delicious. Waffles also worth trying
When we arrived there was about a 25 to 30 min wait.
After about 10 they had space at the bar, so we took it. The inside is really beautiful. It's a breakfast place, but with a modern feel. The service was a little slow, even at the bar, but the staff was all very nice. I got the salmon fume a

Super nice people, very delicious food (we‘ve had breakfast) and stylish location. The waffles and the bread are self made and with some creative combinations to eat. the coffee is also very good. We did like the place. Only negative point: it is s
The food was so delicious.
I tried the fricassée and everything was perfect. There are two pieces of tender meat below the eggs that you'll love. Coffee is pretty good as well. Not to mention the waffles and the toppings. Everything very well sugar balanced. My wife tri
Food was outstanding.
We were walk ins, 45 minute wait. We walked to the HMart down the street and bought face cream while we waited. Asked for the best seller and it did not disappoint!
The ONLY place to eat breakfast in Vancouver!
This restaurant was so good, we ate there on both of our days in Vancouver! Breakfast options were amazing (and the waffles!!!!). The quality of the food was very good. Service….exceptional. Get there 1/2 hour before it opens to avoid the line.
Excellent Breakfast/brunch!
My wife and I ate here with another couple for the first time this week and were not disappointed. Two of us had the Fricassée dish, one had the Sandwich au Porc and another had the waffles. I was able to try all the dishes and they were equally exc

I went at 8am on a weekday and there was no wait.
The service was great and the Paella was delicious! Great spot for breakfast or brunch.
Cool spot
Grabbed a light lunch here. Superb ambience, with attentive and friendly service. Drinks and food were tasty. Wished we‘d visited here a bit more while we were in town.

Great breakfast or brunch in downtown Vancouver.
This place is fantastic for breakfast! The kids loved their waffles with dipping sauce. My wife’s cassoulet was to die for. I had the eggs with mushroom. So earthy and good. Great vibe and service. The coffees and hot chocolates were great. While a
Excellent, original, classic
Best breakfast in a long time. I had the steak and eggs with a Caesar. Will absolutely visit again. It was worth the lineup on a Sunday morning.

You'll have to wait very long if you come at noon since many customers are here for their brunches. We love everything here, though it's long wait.

Medina Cafe continues to earn its spot on every Vancouver brunch list, for good reason. The menu draws inspiration from French and Mediterranean staples, but gives each dish its own thoughtful twist. This time I went with the fricassée. It's n
Brunch at Medina Cafe, a true OG in downtown Vancouver.
I went with the Fricassée and it was packed with flavour (tender braised short ribs, crispy potatoes, caramelized onions, melty smoked cheddar, and the perfect sunny eggs). Finished it off with a Liège waffle dipped in dark chocolate. A classic for
Fabulous breakfast spot with great atmosphere
Staying only a few minutes' walk, we saw this place on TripAdvisor and decided to give it a try for breakfast. The place was quite full. However, the waiter found us a table for 2. After purusing the menu for a few minutes. we made our choices.
Very good breakfasts
Really very good breakfasts and we will be returning. I had the Tagine which is a take on shakshuka but was too spicy and not anything like what a traditional tagine should be. Nonetheless it was somewhat enjoyable. My husband had the cassoulet and
Perfect Brunch Place
Great brunch place! I ordered the Cassoulet - this is the one with sausage, bacon, and eggs - my favorite for brunch. For dessert it was the Liège Style Waffle (one of the best waffles that I ever tasted) My meal was very filling and most of all de

Delightful Afternoon at Cafe Medina
We were lucky to stop by Cafe Medina later in the afternoon, so there was only a short wait for bar seats. It was so fun watching the different drinks get made right in front of us. We enjoyed the pearl couscous and waffles, and the Moroccan Maria wa

Ok...so I'm gonna keep this short and sweet. Yes, the food is as good as they say it is. Yes, their famous Lavender Latte does taste like a trip to the spa. Yes, their service is worth the wait. I love the fact that...these guys give you a time est
SOOO SOOO GOOD!! Definitely shouldn't miss.
The brunch, ambiance, everything was phenomenal. We went on a thursday and surprisingly there were quite a bit of people waiting. We were told an approximate 45 minute wait, but it turned into 10 min since many prior to us had left. Champignon (m

Worth the wait. It is recommended to make reservations through their web site
We enjoyed a very delicious breakfast at this cafe.
Their outdoor seating is great and the staff were all very attentive. Their coffee was exceptional, we tried their mocha. I had the fricasee which was loaded with flavor and cooked perfectly. Their waffles were a fun treat to enjoy as well. I highly

Excellent coffee, energetic city vibe
If you are looking for good coffee, this is the place. Then add in a great menu and food, friendly and extremely efficient service, and an energetic inner city vibe and this is a place that will be a destination for us on every trip to Vancouver. TI
Fabulous food and atmosphere. What a beautiful start to the day
We googled and found this little hole in the wall. So impressed!!! From the moment we walked in the door. Friendly and helpful staff. Very busy! But coffee and breakfast was great, snd the waffles too. Price was great too
Worth Queuing For
We got lucky, because Cafe Medina is right opposite the Kingston Hotel, where we were staying. It opens at 9 on a Saturday, and you're best getting there a bit before that and queuing. It's well worth the wait. When they opened, they did something I'
Not worth the wait.
Terrible for the ‘ratings’. How can you mess up one scrambled egg and a piece of bacon? Tasteless egg ( can I have some salt at least)…?… and nothing but fat for bacon? Would not stand in line for this again.
Cafe Medina, Vancouver Cafe
We went to Cafe Medina for breakfast. Everyone found something that pleased them. The food was very good and the staff was cheerful and professional
Cafe Medina offers a nice change of breakfast flavors
We stopped here for breakfast, as it was close to our hotel. It was the perfect antidote to a rainy day. The servers couldn't have been more gracious while seating us, explaining the menu and serving. We found the coffee to be exceptional - especi

What a great find for a late breakfast/brunch in the heart of Vancouver! Our hotel concierge recommended it to us when we were late rising and still wanted to have breakfast. Great coffee. Innovative egg dishes. The breakfast Tagine was a tasty and
Medina for the win!
Always my go to restaurant for brunch or lunch in Vancouver. Consistently on point! Service is great, food is delicious and vibe is always on point.
Unique Brunch Experience in Vancouver
We dined at Cafe Medina soon after disembarking from our Alaskan cruise. There was an hour wait to eat inside but no wait if we dined at the picnic tables outside the restaurant. We chose al fresco dining with no wait! The menu is unique and interest

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Cafe Medina Vancouver. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Cafe Medina Vancouver at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Cafe Medina Vancouver page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Cafe Medina Vancouver to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Cafe Medina Vancouver!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
