Handworks Coffee Studio — Restaurant in Burnaby

Went on a Saturday afternoon. The store is tiny, so may be hard to spot just driving by. There is free street parking available in the residential area adjacent, but may be hard to find depending on the time of day.

They have a lot of interesting trinkets and other items for sale around the store (or just for decor) which is interesting to browse.
