Day one of The Snobby awards is here and we start it off with the newest category: Best New Coffee Shops in Vancouver 2022.
The criteria for this list is that each nominee must have opened their doors this year.
This list is bought to you by Jelly Donut Events
Jelly Donut Events specializes in virtual team building events.
And you guessed it – there are coffee tasting events (and loads more)!
You and your team will be sent a selection of KILLER coffee, then you’ll brew it up over Zoom with…
ME!
That’s right, I’m a host for these events. I run them as you would expect – with a focus on fun as well as not taking myself too seriously.

OK, back to the list of the Best New Coffee Shops in Vancouver 2022.
10. Kits Beach Coffee
1945 Cornwall Ave, Vancouver, BC V6J 1C8

What started life as a little coffee cart on Kits beach rapidly evolved into a bright and beautiful beachside coffee shop.
You can expect house roasted coffee, along side local classics like House of Funk and Pallet.
9. Saunter Coffee
321 W Pender St, Vancouver, BC V6B 1T3

Saunter is a fairly new addition to Gastown… or is it Crosstown… or is this Downtown?
I don’t know – it’s nice though. Classic Gastown brick with a great lineup of coffee from Detour.
8. Paragon Tea Room
3361 Cambie St, Vancouver, BC V5Z 2W6
OK, I know, not technically a coffee shop.
But I don’t care, because their tea is SO damn good and they recently opened a new shop on Cambie and 16th-ish.
You can expect a truly unique experience with their funky teaspresso machines. Kind of a cross between an espresso machine and traditional tea brewing.
The results are incredible.
7. Aiyaohno Cafe

OK I’ll be honest here, I’ve not been to this place. But it looks great.
It’s inside the old Iktsuarpok location and they look to be slinging lots of veg/vegan food too.
6. Timbertrain Port Moody
3001 St Johns St, Port Moody, BC V3H 2C4

I’ve been waiting for version 3 of Timbertrain for what feels like forever!
It’s an absolutely stunning venue in the ever-popular Port Moody.
You can expect the usual incredible high-end coffee from Timbertrain, in a stylish and warm venue.
5. Oide Coffee
550 Clark Dr, Vancouver, BC V5L 3H7

The gang from Iktsuarpok are back, only this time they’re in the old Agro location!
You can expect coffee bought in from all over the place – Canada, UK, USA etc. It’s all the insanely high end stuff you’d expect from this amazing husband and wife duo.
4. Cafe Club
1018 W Georgia St, Vancouver, BC V6E 2Y2
View this post on Instagram
Vancouver’s first fully digital cafe!
What this means is that all of the transactions are via their app. You order, pay and pickup without ever having to get your wallet out.
Their coffee lineup is from Nemesis, Detour and Moving Coffee. Their tea selection is from the aforementioned Paragon Tea Room.
3. C Market (Port Coquitlam)
820 Village Dr #110, Port Coquitlam, BC V3B 0G9
View this post on Instagram
C Market’s new location in Poco is a staggeringly beautiful and huge venue with heaps of parking outside.
They have their usual food game (amazing sweet and savory options) as well as house-roasted coffee that includes some of the best medium roast I’ve ever had!
2. Isetta Cafe Bistro
4360 Marine Dr, West Vancouver, BC V7V 1P1
View this post on Instagram
Isetta is a staggeringly beautiful cafe, tucked away in the absolute middle of West Van nowhere!
While it’s a bit of a treck to get to, it’s SO very much worth the trip.
Fantastic coffee from Nemesis, in house food (the Cacio e Pepe carbonara thingie is nuts) as well as some killer baked treats.
1. Kafkas Yaletown
860 Richards St, Vancouver, BC V6B 3B4

Kafka’s new location takes the top spot, and we can damn well see why.
The venue is this weird triangle shaped building, set in a park with vaulted walkways, tucked away on the edge of Yaletown.
Inside the decor is bright, neon and truly unique!
While the coffee selection is a tiny bit lacking (no pour overs) the majority of the Kafka’s house roasted lineup is in there.
Last visit I had an Americano and it might go down the best I’ve ever had in my life, no joke.
