Revolver — Restaurant in Vancouver

The reason for the one-star rating is that my wife and I had a very uncomfortable experience at Revolver. We mistakenly picked up someone else’s drinks and even started drinking them, until one of the actual owners of the order pointed out that those drinks were not ours. We fully recognize this was our fault, and my wife immediately began apologizing to the people whose order we had taken. One of them was understanding, but the other was clearly upset.

The situation became much worse because of the staff’s reaction. A barista suddenly took the drinks from my wife’s hands and poured them down the drain, not in a physically rude way, but so abruptly and unexpectedly that it added to her embarrassment. From that moment on, the staff treated her with clear rudeness: they kept frowning, giving her angry glares, and no one said a single word to her. She was left apologizing over and over while being met only with cold stares and complete silence.

My wife, visibly embarrassed, had to ask, without anyone offering help, if two drinks sitting on the counter were ours before we could finally take them. By then, she felt humiliated and asked me to finish my drink and food as quickly as possible so we could leave.

I deeply regret visiting this place, and even worse, regret leaving a tip only to be treated in such a rude and...

Revolver cafe is definitely worth the trip! You absolutely HAVE to get the lemon loaf, it has these crystallized bits of lemon baked throughout that are divine. We also got the s’mores cookie which was very good but not as much of a stand out as the lemon loaf.

Would also recommend the coffee flight, it included two types of Colombian coffee espresso shots with and without milk. Price point was affordable for what you get, we split it amongst two of us and it was perfect. The coffee was incredibly fruity, and worth trying especially if you like more vibrant fruit notes in your coffee (my preference is caramel notes in my espresso, but my partner loved the fruit notes, so totally up to your palette).

The atmosphere was nice and aesthetically pleasing. One side has tiny more private booths which were all full, but I imagine they’re super cozy if you can snag one. The other side of the cafe is more of a long communal table that seemed to have lots of open seats but was a bit noisier (just keep in mind if you’re thinking of working/studying from the cafe, may want noise cancelling headphones). Oh and the music was absolutely perfect, a perfect chill playlist, not too loud or quiet.

Overall, the give this place a try, you...

Tried this coffee shop last week but unfortunately besides the coffee taster board nothing really else was really good. Even that it wasn’t the best coffee but more for the fun of trying it. There is no room to sit and the larger booths had one person sitting on them as well as people who were clearly finished their coffee. We did not find any place and had to stand to have our taster. We asked for gluten free options and the clerk told us that we had four options and we got the banana loaf which was advised by the clerk it was gluten free. It was good and we went back to get a second and asked again is this gluten free the clerk took out the ingredient list and pointed to wheat flour which would make the banana loaf not something that can be good for a gluten allergy (celiac). My sister felt sick for a few days as she is celiac and due to the incorrect information by the clerk this happened, if you are severely celiac do not get the banana loaf. The two ppl in the back overheard this and did nothing nor did they come over to ask what happened or care. It is unfortunately not the best experience and won’t be going back and want to make people aware of the misinformation so no one falls sick or gets a bad allergic...
