Peter MarinoDecember 2, 2016Best coffee in the city, staff is super friendly and always willing to help out. Ambiance is warm and welcoming, with plenty of seating. No outlets however, and their wifi is off on weekendsUpvote7Downvote
Serious EatsOctober 7, 2013You'll have a great day after an excellent pour-over or espresso drink from Forty Ninth Parallel. Come as early as you can for optimal Lucky's Doughnuts choices.Upvote2Downvote
The best coffee in Vancouver? Quite possibly! Lovely wood panelled interior, friendly staff and an AWESOME range of doughnuts! A must visit....

Amy HoAugust 8, 2014The old-fashioned chocolate donut is a must-have. Not too cake-y. Perfect with a cup of coffee.

David PrestidgeMay 9, 2013Perhaps the most perfectly and precisely poured pour overs I've encountered and the old fashioned doughnuts are superb (though of the devil; nothing that good could be good for you)Upvote3Downvote
Robyn DignanNovember 6, 2013My first time at this hip coffee place. I love the apple maple bacon fritter . It is so light and fluffy. This is the best way to end my day

Luis LavieriJune 8, 2013Having been born in Venezuela, I was skeptical about the Venezuelan Coffee... But I shouldn't have been. It is by far the best coffee I have had in North America, comparable to when I lived in Italy.UpvoteDownvote
Fabio De DonnoFebruary 15, 2019Loved the doughnuts. The old fashioned ones were a bit too cakey so go for the standard ones. Coffee filter & flat white ok but not great. Cute locations, friendly service & lots of laptopsUpvoteDownvote
My favourite coffee shop. Love the cool vibe of this place. Tried their Venezuelan coffee and it was delicious! Definitely recommend it.

Kara TseJanuary 20, 2016Hazelnut hot chocolate, cookies and the amazing apple bacon fritter are delicious. The cappuccino was a bit disappointing tho, not as good as Aus

JJuly 19, 2015The coffee is good but I'll be honest, I come here for the donuts! Great selection of rotations flavours, plus the staple orange donut!UpvoteDownvote
Deb PickmanJuly 20, 2014Salted Caramel doughnut - wish it was 1/2 the size but yummy. If you order them you can get tiny fresh beignets.

Andrew CNovember 10, 2015This might be the best coffee in Vancouver. A true staple of the scene.Upvote1Downvote
A wonderful place to grab a morning pick-me-up and some pillowy doughnuts. Plenty of comfy chairs to get some work done, too.UpvoteDownvote
Anna JorgensenAugust 15, 2017Working my way through all the #LuckysDoughnuts because they are heaven in my mouth. (And, again, I don't even like doughnuts.)Upvote1Downvote
Joanna Kolskog KingAugust 3, 2013The doughnuts are killer. Worth going to the Main St location just to have the Lucky's doughnuts. I recommend either the Old Fashioned or PistachioUpvoteDownvote- TameaMarch 2, 2015Amazing donuts, good service (especially considering how packed the place always is) and outstanding caffeinated beverages.UpvoteDownvote
KC ClaveriaSeptember 21, 2014The pumpkin doughnut is awesome. The salted caramel one is too sweet (but still good).

It's absurd to say these doughnuts are anything special but the ambience is great - if you're "lucky" enough to get a seat. The Venezuelan coffee is good.Upvote1Downvote
Kevin SkobacJune 3, 2016The options are always changing. If you see mango passion fruit or blackberry chevre, get on them quick!UpvoteDownvote
Doug DeclouxApril 14, 2013Best coffee I've ever had, the donuts are to die for, salted caramel a personal fave. Happy I live just down the street.UpvoteDownvote
Darryl WrightSeptember 29, 2014If you can get here in December when they unleash the Egg Nog Snowball, you'll never look at doughnuts the same way again.

Be careful combining the power of bacon and apple fritter. You just might tear a hole in the space time continuum... But it's entirely worth it.Upvote13Downvote
Marc AafjesOctober 17, 2014Try the individual filter coffee options -- not a broad selection, but great choices

Fabien MorereAugust 24, 2013The best place for old fashion donuts. ...2 locations...Main and West 4th

Jayne KnightJune 20, 2013I wish they made more scones. Their scones are a revelation, but they are almost always out of them by the time I arrive in search of one. Often have to settle for a fritter. O tempora, o mores!UpvoteDownvote
The doughnuts are the stars here. Peanut butter and Jelly is a messy delicious treat.UpvoteDownvote
Y CApril 8, 2013It's always packed but it's a cozy spot on a rainy, winter afternoon for studying or having light conversation.Upvote1Downvote
Duygu 🐞February 3, 2016It is good to drink ur coffee when it is raining outside and especially if there r some oldsters sitting besides ur table..UpvoteDownvote

Ariela BadenasApril 27, 2014People might hate me for saying that their donuts aren't amazing... It's good but not quite life-changing. Must commend them for the design though!UpvoteDownvote
Karen HamiltonJune 7, 2012Buy six or more doughnuts and get an 18% volume discount. No flat pricing for a dozen or 1/2 dozen since each item is priced differently.

Jamie WolfeOctober 13, 2013I'd say salted caramel doughnut I just ate was the best doughnut in the worldUpvoteDownvote
