"Founded with an origin in French baking techniques, Bakery Sate comes out of left field for its application of a custard-like filling for its almond croissants. Depending on your preference of an almond filling being a paste or custard, this entry might be ranked higher or lower based on that merit. This, paired with the fact that the croissant is double baked means that the gradient between in the interior and the crust is a long and gentle progression and the almond cookie on top has a wonderful chew to it."

"Possibly one of the busiest brunch places I’ve ever visited, Jam Cafe has become increasingly popular in recent months so it’s fair to say that you should expect to queue if you arrive later than 9 am. Even though the queuing might be frustrating, the food is so delicious!. Make sure to try their Chicken N’ Waffles and chocolate shakes; you won’t be disappointed."

"Jam Cafe is a delightful family-run eatery, with lots of energy and mouth-watering food that makes it a favorite brunch spot for many Vancouverites.
