Every time I have been to Vancouver, I swear I see a different city. The most recent visit, I was blessed with a gorgeous day to wander from my parking spot downtown over to Granville Island.
But before beginning the walk, Divine providence led me to Elysian Coffee's downtown location. Situated in the bottom floor of a hotel, the shop has lots of tall windows and plenty of seating, inside and out.
Moving to the cafe's central bar, I ordered an espresso of a single origin Guatemala and a drip of a Costa Rican. The espresso, pulled to a medium volume with brown crema, smacked of chocolate, pecan, lemon, cream, almond and romaine, proving full and sweet. The drip coffee also fired on all cylinders, with delightful notes of apple, croissant, lingonberry, corn and cascara.
After pausing to enjoy my drinks, I was eager to continue on to drink in the pleasantries that is a nice day in Vancouver. If you happen to be in Vancouver, check out one of Elysian's many locations for great coffee.
