Cafe Bono — Restaurant in Coquitlam

Went on a weekday afternoon and there were a number of available tables varying from two to six seats. A shorter menu is hung behind the counter with the full menu printed on the table in front the the cashier. The price point for drinks is fair for the size, although the cakes were a more expensive than initially anticipated. Ordered a 16oz matcha latte and 16oz Americano, both of which were made upon ordering and available for pickup at the side of the counter. The matcha latte had some latte art on top and it was quite sweet. The matcha flavour was not very pronounced. Staff did not push people to leave, many people staying between one and two hours. There is a sign by the cashier saying they encourage each person to order something (1:1 item:people), which is fair. The atmosphere is quite friendly and relaxed with simple, but warm, decor. The seats are comfortable enough to be sitting for a few hours and the space did not get too noisy even as the...

The waitress was very rude. She kept looking at us while we were looking at the cakes/ menu and was not friendly at all. Her face was stern as if she were rushing us.

The food and drinks were average but I didn't think it was...

small and cute hidden cafe in Coquitlam with desserts, coffee, korean shaved ice (bingsoo) and drinks. Conveniently located across from Hmart in the same square. overall it's a bit pricey, but their cafe space is nicely decorated, and clean

Pistachio Cheesecake, creamy and mousse like, only has a subtle taste of pistachio with white chocolate topping.

Tiramisu cake was pretty good, the cake was super spongy and airy, the taste of the espresso coffee wasn't too bitter nor too sweet, was balanced just right. they also have a tiramisu cup as well, and i think that one would also taste pretty good too.

Sweet potato latte was ok, didn't really stand out in comparison to sweet potato latte I've had in other places. cuz Bono cafe's tasted basically like a sweet potato flavoured steamed milk
