Looking for a new spot to hit before heading to Granville Island on a busy day? Enter Tru Cafe – the newest Starbucks replacement following the string of closures across Canada last year. The new coffee shop doubles as a gelato spot, serving a range of caffeinated bevies and treats, gelato, and affogato.
The locally-owned brand set up shop at 1500 West 2nd Avenue, and has now officially opened its doors to the public.
In terms of food, we think their cookies deserve a mention. With unique combos like grapefruit ginger and classic hits like maple walnut and vegan chocolate chip – there’s definitely a cookie for every craving. They even have overnight oats perfect for a grab-and-go situation.

That’s all for now, folks! We hope you get out there and enjoy some locally-roasted coffee and/or gelato sometime soon.
