Cafe Deux Soleils Reviews

Great place to casual and open mic there is quite something

Cafe Deux is a Vancouver classic, from their big chalk board menu to their kids play area to Thursday night open mic, they are not just a restaurant, they are a part of the east van life. Everything is vegetarian here, beer is local and pretty well priced. There are so many cool events here, I can't keep up. No wifi, so connect with the person sitting next to you instead!

One of my favorite places in this city. Love the food and the night events.

Delicious vegetarian breakfast! Was throughly impressed!

Love the cafe. Vegetarian food and options galore! It's a hub for creativity that features a stage for those oh so willing to perform.

You'll feel at home.

Quirky,vegetarian and all round "let your freak flag fly" kinda place. A Commercial Drive institution.

Such great food and love the kid's play area on the stage. Could do without the foul language written on the bathroom wall though.

By chance we ended up stopping by this morning after experiencing a long wait-time at another breakfast spot. I used to go here all the time with my mom when growing up in the neighborhood, and forgot just how good it was.Excellent variety of vegan/vegetarian options, a great atmosphere accompanied by prices that really make sure you get a bang for your buck. Definitely one of the best breakfast spots in the Commercial Drive area!

Its very dark for a daytime cafe but during the night they have live music + an all vegetarian menu that is well spread out on a chalk board with many options to choose from
The energy is funky and a little hippie like !!

Delicious, cozy, and vegetarian friendly. We had an awesome time here.

amazing fast mid day food, great for kids and families

Great vegan selection. Occasionally have good entertainment on stage.

Lovely place, lovely staff and a kids play zone! The food is pretty good too.

Love this place. Dark vibe eith a huge homemade organic menu with mismatched mugs. Bench seats are tight but im fat and picky... still 5 stars. Why not im iin a good mood.

Cool neighborhood cafe with great vegetarian and vegan food.

Great breakfast spot. We ve enjoyed all their food. Often has a long line. Seating is limited. Be prepared to rub elbows with random people.

Had a group dinner but food came really late and unevenly. Person who got the last oder have to pack the food because it came so late. Food and service was really bad. I do not recommend this place.

Good place to have a coffee and people watch. I've had the chilli and the breakfast too, both are great

Food was great! We had the pineapple tofu vegan burger, the pesto vegan burger, and the tortellini, everyone was very pleased with their meal. I am only giving 4 stars because the washroom was dirty and the table was very sticky and felt unclean.

My favourite breakfast is the oeufs de Soleil. The touch of dijon is so good. Satisfying hashbrowned potatoes with onion.
I met a casual friend on my way out (at that time my favourite was the tofu scramble, succulently soft tofu) and I heard him say, "I sell the meat here", I was puzzled because this is a vegetarian restaurant. But in fact he said, "I seldom eat here." Brits!

Cute spot and great vegetarian friendly breakfast. Was a little bit but we lucked out with a spot near the window

Absolutely Wonderful Food, Staffing, Service, Shows, Events, Concerts, Atmosphere and Vibes. I would DEFINITELY recommend this to ANYONE and EVERYONE

The food is great and vegan. The atmosphere is also nice. The seats are a little uncomfortable.

Yummy nachos, friendly service, local vibes, stage for poets and musicians and activism

Incredible dinning experience, great food, Awsome events, nice staff

Very nice place to go for a nice meal or a coffee break. Place is always very busy so expect to wait in line and don't be surprised if you have to sit at one of the many communal tables. Food is good, with a lot of vegetarian options, but a bit pricey. This place does not have a parking lot so street parking if you can find it.

Love this place. Good food, friendly and fast service!

Very good for families because they have lots of toys and a play place for little ones. It's super busy on weekends for brunch so finding a place to sit can sometimes be difficult, but the order line always goes quick and the food comes out fast!

I like sitting in here with my brunch and iced mocha and staring out a window. No WiFi though.

Best cafe in Vancouver, I like everything about this place. The vegetarian burgers are great. They also serve beers...

This is my new GoTo spot for a veggie breakfast.
Straight forward and affordable!

This place is so amazing. You must watch a poetry slam if you ever get the chance!

Foods good, service is good, prices are good, nothing here is amazing.... but it s worth coming to.

My one issue ..... if you are going to have a cover charge for open mic night .... don t ask the people who are already there to pay, after they have already ordered food and have no choice but to stay.

Good cafe with a liquor license. Friendly staff and good beer.

Great vegetarian food, best London fog, friendly service and welcoming atmosphere - probably my favourite place on the drive

Excellent place! The food is good, servers are friendly, and the ambience and vibe is lovely. Would highly recommend this place.

I went here looking for a vegan breakfast/brunch option. The server behind the counter was really irritated with food allergy questions. I ordered a soy latte and she brought it iced, weird but whatever. Turns out it was dairy. I was so sick for the following three days. I clearly said I was allergic and she didn't care or was just careless in making the order. Would rate as zero stars if I could. I recommend any other option on commercial. Don't advertise as a vegetarian/vegan option if you can't be bothered to ensure you can provide safe food.

What I like the most is the inmense amount of events they have most of the time.

Best breakfast on Commercial Drive. Great vibe. Busy. Kids can ramble about on the stage while parents finish their coffee.

Great vegan choices. Cool atmosphere. Friendly staff.

A commercial drive staple. Great vegetarian food and beer selection. Good prices. Weekly musicians and poetry. No wifi other than shawopen. Bowl of chili w/garlic bread at $6 is a filling meal and is probably the best deal health-and-calories-wise on the Drive.

Very helpful staff and a great atmosphere, but not a good place to go for allergies. I have gluten/dairy/egg allergies and there wasn't a single item on the menu for me. Great place to have a drink though.

Has a cool environment and friendly staff, spacious, vegetarian options and live performances. Drinks are good, food is good, and their decorations are all in support of local artists.

Vegetarian menu with vegan options, great entertainment and good drinks

I had gone there for an improv comedy which was good but the food menu and the alcohol prices were on a higher side. A single bottle of local beer costed me more than 6 bucks.

Excellent vegetarian menu and professional service!

Great vegetarian food and a good place to study or work remotely

Who doesn't love this place. ..yummiest breakfast too.. love the taste of their coffee here..

Simple but delicious food. Nice ambiance of The Drive.

Went by to grab a place to eat once we all checked into our airbnb. Just happened to.have stumbled onto this place. Whilst the decoration is simple, the food was very tasty. However one thing people should note is, it is a vegetarian place. The staff were friendly and helpful.

I love the burger and sangria here.. highly recommend it!

Delicious food that feels like home cooking. Come get a delicious heart warming meal and enjoy a huge selection of vegetarian/vegan goodies and a local brew!

The veggie hash and eggs was excellent. Staff are friendly and helpful as well. Great breakfast spot.

Vancouver poetry slam nights are great! Good good and drinks too

Amazing vegetarian restaurant. The extensive menu caters to almost everyone. Try the tofu scramble! Good place for larger groups they have plenty of seating. Can he very busy and noisy on weekends.

Burger was pretty good(also at a 4$ happy hour discount) but draught was warm and barely carbonated

A staple of commercial drive. Great local eatery for breakfast, lunch, dinner and late night events!

Great lemonade, awesome music. Love the atmosphere, very welcoming.

Friendly community eatery which is particularly well suited for families. They also host lots of community events such as Drag Queen Storytime which my friend and I enjoyed greatly. It is also a vegetarian spot so a great place to take group with a differing food preferences. Definitely try the nachos! So good.

This is a favorite spot. A true hipster / family friendly vibe.
Parents can eat and let their kids play without an intense "keep your kids quiet" feeling.
A mishmash of tables and booths. It's noisy but welcoming.
The menu is vegetarian with a lot of vegan and gluten-free options.
I love most of the food, some is just okay. It's fairly inexpensive and the staff is great.
The real pull is the calendar of events.
Live music, beat poetry, and open mic nights.
It's a nice change from most restaurants in Vancouver.
I recommend going in the evening, enjoying a show and supporting some local artists.

Great service, delicious food & good value, cozy atmosphere, can't wait to go back!

The reviews were good and we were in the area so gave it a try. I wouldn't say it was amazing but perhaps our expectations were simply high and we were very hungry. The coffee could definitely be warmer and it's $0.50 to refill which I've never had at a restaurant. The ambiance is cute

Food is good and servers here are friendly. Appreciate the community atmosphere. The biggest downfall though is the lack of accessible bathrooms, which means my friends cannot patron here or attend events hosted here. In 2020 this is not ok.

This place is the essence of commerical drive! A bit grungy, free flow, open to everyone, counter service. The community itself adds to the vibe. Their vegetarian dishes are well put together. Great gluten free bread! Come for a snack, a drink or a meal!

Great little veggie place, open mic on thursday nights is great fun. They have a good selection of beer and the staff are always nice and friendly.

What a great spot for a bite. Fantastic ambience and the food was delicious. We had some hash browns and a Veggie Burger with pesto and washed it down with coffee. All of it was just perfectly made and taste awesome. One of the gems on The Drive that we have to be thankful for

Great veggie burgers and great beer with an even better vibe.

Nice menu, very rustic environment. I ordered the oven fries and mushroom gravy. Delicious. The Drag Storytelling show was so much fun.

Decent breakfast/cafe spot but the basic breakfast has been a miss both times I ve tried it and they don t have wifi which I m assuming is so people don t stay for too long but hey I wouldn t mind the option

Didn't know it was a veggie place, but had great eggs and coffee in a random stop on my way home. Would definitely come back. Kid friendly, but place was big enough that it wasn't a problem for me to get some work done while I ate.

If you are veg and have kids,this place is very kid friendly!
