Westwood Plateau, Canada
My favorite Blenz ever. I get used to have my coffee here. I feel comfortable in this place and they have great and friendly staff as well. Thanks Blenz!

Caramelized soy latte macchiato was delicious! The art was pretty, the service could improve

Amazing espresso and Starbucks-​like ambiance with a more organic feel that includes Stevia packets. They don’t burn the coffee and there is a nice selection of baked goods, including rice krispies treats and brownies, as well as sandwiches and paninis. A good place to grab a coffee and relax while shopping Downtown.

I came here for the wi-​fi (because it was open 24 hrs) and got a Belgian ice chocolate which was alright, but then I was surprised by the 2-​hour-​only wifi access code they gave me. And the wifi was no good at all (2 mbps). Across the street is Breka Café which is also open 24⁄7 — go there, it has great wifi and a lot of food/​coffee options. Don’t waste your time and money here if you’re looking to get some work done during the day accompanied by a glass of coffee.

I’ve been to many blenz around vancouver area and I must say, this location seems to almost always get my order wrong or they don’t know what I want. I’ve asked once for a superfruit chillo and the staff said there is no such thing. It’s actually on the menu and when they saw that they had it, I was corrected by the staff that I had to say fruit chillo and not tea chillo. I never even said tea chillo to begin with, sometimes putting a little effort into listening will help. Again, today I went in to order a iced coconut latte no whip before work and of course when I got to work, I realized I got a regular iced latte and paid the price of the coconut latte. Next time I should just taste my drinks before leaving. Of course I don’t have the time to walk back and have them re-​do the drink, but it would really help if they put in a little more effort in listening to the orders.

I came here to get a soy macha latte sugar free. How can someone screw this up after I asked for soy milk not once but 2 times. I saw the barista use whole milk and she had to re-​do my order. I also mentioned sugar free and she f*cked that up to. Really?

The Starbucks of Canada! Blenz Coffee can be found on every corner, especially in Vancouver. Blenz is a nice place to catch your breath and relax a little after a day of shopping on Robson Street!
I ordered the Peach Green Tea, and it was nice and refreshing! I also tried some of the Citrus Pear Blended Tea, which was pretty good as well. The drinks were made fast, and there was plenty of seating.

Good creamy hot chocolate. However, the regular day-​time baristas at this location are a bit harsh and need to have a better attitude in life. I feel your hate and angst when I walk in and order and you kind of bum me out so I have to go to starbucks now.

I came in here after seeing their signs on the streets, which all feature delicious sounding drinks. I came in to order the Belgian milk hot chocolate, but the barista looked mad to be helping me. I guess I interrupted her conversation with her co-​worker. Anyway, back to the drink. I opted to get my hot chocolate made with soy milk, and unfortunately, that was all I could taste. Such a disappointment.

Hmmm. Vancouver’s sbux. haaa. i remember hanging out here when i was up there… crap. ten years ago.
The people were really nice and everything. I pondered here with my buddies… if we call certain type of ham in u.s., canadian bacon… and we order canadian bacon, will they give us ham? or bacon??? the mind working in overdrive over simple issues makes the simple-​est decision a complex algebraic issue of irrelevant massive proportions! hence when u come here, don’t be so crazy with the venti, dopyo blah blah crap. large coffee haaa.
someone remind me, is it okay to smoke outside? i did anyways, often do here in Cali and wait for a worker to don’t smoke unless there’s little children around.
this coffee shop… due to my pleasantries in hongcouver will always have a special place in my heart. aww.

I am typically not a fan of coffee chains. However, I oft sacrafice my craft coffee snobbery for the ultimate of luxuries — convenience!
Enter Blenz, which seems to be at the corner of all tourist-​y Vancouver spots. Bonus points for almond milk (which Starbucks does not have)! Also, I don’t know why, but one Nanaimo bar is never enough to keep my belly happy. Although I’m not a fan of the actual seating area and music at this location, I always grab and go, so not a big deal (for me).

One of the rare Blenz’s with a modern flair.
A bit on the tinier side, corner location makes up for it. Undoubtedly, a place for people watching.
beside the Scotia bank.

I like coming here because the service is always good and its just cool to stray from the crowd and not goto starbucks (except for their shaken iced tea lemonades, light ice, half sweet of course)
Blenz or really any other coffee shop wins over starbucks for coffee for that matter.
That being said. I tried their peach iced green tea here and it was pretty good. I like my stuff less sweet and it was just right. Good tea flavor.

There’s always room at this Blenz. No matter how busy it was, I’ve always managed to find a tall table or window seat available. This is where I like to meet friends for a chat, have a tea latte and relax!
The staff here are all quite friendly. Noone’s been nasty to me… yet? I hope not. No, they’re all very nice!
My personal choice: Rooibos Chai Tea Latte

This was the closest coffee shop nearest to our hotel and was open late. I will honestly say, the coffee is so-​so. It definitely was not the best coffee I have had, and I have had a lot of coffee. The first day I tried a Mocha Cappachillo drink — it was overly sweet with no hint of coffee. It was just pure chocolate milk blended with ice. I had a hard time drinking it. The next day, I opted to try a Mocha Chiller of some sort — and it was better. The milk was amazing and the the espresso was good. My only complaint about this place is their espresso is on the weak side, and they use very little espresso shots.
I also had a gingersnap cookie — not good. I thought it was too much molasses and it tasted stale.
The place is good for the price you have to pay.

Blenz = shit «coffee.» Blenz = shit «food.» Buy any other drink (matcha latte, strawberry tea, Belgian hot chocolate) and you’ll do just fine.
This particular Blenz boasts 15 seats at most inside, and oddly enough way more outside. I quite like sitting on the patio especially when the weather is a bit more warmer (like now), but it seems like it is overrun with very loud AND annoying foreigners, which makes me leave prematurely. Inside, you are quite close to your neighbour so I wouldn’t recommend any private chats. ;)
The staff are friendly, even though they didn’t understand my order the first time around. If on Robson, I would come here over the one at Robson/​Burrard as that one is waaaay more congested.
Also this Blenz keeps the bathroom strictly for customers, which is something all Blenz should do.

Came here for a coffee with a friend.
Parking here is nonexistent unless you count the metered parking. Or if you’re lucky you might find a spot or two on Alberni.
This location does seem a *bit* run down, but you probably wouldn’t care. What was curious is that all of the staff were Japanese with heavy accents. I had trouble understanding some of them. Interestingly enough, this place is next to Shenanigans, which is known as an ESL hangout. Hmm.
The coffee I had tasted like coffee, which is good.

I have a soft spot for this location, as, one it is near my part time job, the other part is that a couple of years back I entered a contest in the Georgia Straight, and won coffee for a year, at this location.
At the corner of Robson, and Bute, this coffee shop has survived the onslaught of the many Starbucks that have popped up on Robson over the last decade. If your looking for an alternative to the many Starbucks on Robson, come here, as it is more of a laid back crowd of people, and workers. You won’t hear the terms of «venti, and tall» for sizes. Usually you have many foreign students working here. They are 24 hours, which is a big yes, especially on this block, where the other coffee shops close at 11 PM.
The free internet is a big plus, but now, most of the other coffee places are giving this away too.
