  A really good place if you want to eat something along with having your coffee! They have lots of baked goods and lunch options, but the macaroons were my favourite! Will definitely be returning next time I am in Vancouver!!

  The place used to be fantastic- the perfect stopping spot while on a sea wall walk.
  Unfortunately the current owners don't bother cleaning. You have to bus your own table and the bathroom is always dirty. The muffins are still pretty good though.

  What you think about Cafe Villaggio probably depends on what you wanted out of it. If you were looking for a great sit down place for lunch or even a fast hearty lunch, you'll probably be disappointed. If you were here ordering pastries or the prepared savory foods, it's good and it's well priced. I've had their macaroons multiple times and they are always good (not spectacular but good). This time over the course of a few days staying nearby we also had their lemon tart and the chocolate swiss roll. The lemon tart was fine, it tasted good but I'm not sure I'd get it again. The chocolate swiss roll was very good though, I'd certainly get that again.
  
  We also had their chicken curry and a quesadilla. The chicken curry was good, just takes a bit and the chicken quesadilla they made alterations to special for our daughter, which was a nice touch. They were all good, but I don't know I'd go there for lunch often.
  
  We also got a croque monsieur for a quick brunch/breakfast and that was great. They heated it up, it was ready to go fast, it was inexpensive and it was very good. The same holds true to their other breakfast sandwiches I've had before.
  
  In short, I'd go there for coffee, for a quick grab breakfast/brunch, and for dessert any time I'm back. I'm not sure how often I'd go back for lunch, but the food is good and inexpensive for the area.

  While the service was good and friendly...
  I just wanted a small snack and ordered the Swiss Roll (chocolate colored). The most mediocre Swiss Roll I have ever had.

  I was looking for a place to grab a light lunch, good coffee, with free wifi, and the the concierge at the Westin Bayshore highly recommended this cafe. There were plenty of food choice: sandwiches, quiches, pastries, you name it. They had a long list of coffees available too.
  
  I ordered the spinach and feta quiche and a grande cappuccino, and holy cow grande means GRANDE. The quiche came with a small salad and was very tasty, and I really enjoyed my cappuccino as well. The wifi was quick and there were plenty of tables to sit at and work.
  
  The issue I had with this place was that it was so hot inside. It was a crisp fall day so I had some layers on, but I stripped down as much as I could and was sweating sitting inside this cafe. I tried to move outside but it was too cold for me to sit comfortably.
  
  Long story short, it had good food and drinks, but just take it to go.
