Waves Coffee House - Kingsway

I love iced latte at this location. The gradient color from the milk to the coffee layer is beautiful. Also, it is not watery at all. And the vibe here is great. It gets crowded mostly but it is quiet. I enjoyed reading a book here. I will visit again :

This is the Kingsway waves branch. I am giving this one 5 stars because of the good and friendly service. It’s smaller than waves downtown Vancouver and the location is not great as downtown one. Still I love it because of the customer service. Still the coffee taste and the Christmas eggnog and lattes are the best taste in Vancouver.

Waves is pretty dope eh! Albeit a more expensive chain coffee joint, I love their grass roots and share the love of the great white north. The joint itself is a great location to grab a coffee and walk round the very beautiful Central Park area. Alternatively, it's a great place to chill in a relaxed, mellow and non-judgmental laid back vibe which seems to be the same across all their branches. I must admit that I also get one of my favorite barista made Soy Cappucinos, always from here with great consistency. The staff are always super friendly, professional and talented at making yummy drinks. We also got a Waves-sized Roobois Canadiano which is awesome and one of the only places that will properly brew high quality loose leaf tea. My only complaint is that as a chain, and the fact their sizes are smaller than others; that paying an extra 90 cents per drink for even a dash of plant-based milk is a bit of a rip really. Stay Canada proud!

I like their coffee and environment. However I did not expect to get charged more because I added a sugar free syrup to my coffee. As long as I am aware, these additions are free in most companies. I paid $6.72 for a small coffee latte with my own cup and I asked for almond milk and sugar free syrup.

Waves cafe on Kingsway is a great place to work and drink coffee. The atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming, making it a perfect place to change up your environment and get some work done while still being able to socialize. The staff is friendly and the coffee is always great.

Friendly service. Good coffee and cakes. However, the internet is so slow, and free parking is hard to find. Meter is 2 dollars per hour, and don't park under ground or you would end up having your window broken into as this is Metrotown area, homeless and thieves are always around preying ....

Cozy little shop with plenty of seating, a decent menu, and in a convenient location. The place tends to be filthy though. Tumbleweeds of hairballs, flies, stained / broken seats, marked floors, cobwebs, etc. It can feel gross at times.

Good coffee shop. Hot chocolate is good but not spectacular. In terms of pricing, it is very comparable with some of the products in Starbucks.

My dark Belgian mocha was alright. The drink tasted powdery, rather than being creamy and rich. Will give the place another try. There was a small selection of muffins and breakfast wraps. Service was quick. There’s lots of indoor and patio seating available at this location, with free wifi. Free Parking on street!

Super slow place for coffee. Definitely not a location worth going for unless you have 10 to 15 minutes to wait for your coffee. The service levels are nothing close to what any other coffee shop has. The workers look defeated and not motivated to work. If you walk in and a line of 3 or more are there waiting, better top off your parking meter with lots of time. Only thing that got this place 2 stars was that the coffee is good
