GVA Cafe @ Mojo Hill

We recently went for a late lunch. What an incredible experience! The new ambiance is a huge upgrade and the food was absolutely delicious. Each sandwich was better than the last - so fresh tasting and perfect ratios of meats, veggies, condiments, etc. It is impossible for me to pick a favorite! Now - on to the coffee! I had the Roman’s Gold which was so mellow but packed a punch! Love that sweet cold foam! Finished off with a divine piece of homemade carrot cake…we didn’t get a chance to take a pic! Absolutely check it out soon, sit in the sunshine and enjoy a lovely lunch or coffee.

Came for a lunch meeting and was greeted by amicable staff. It was very warm inside for a nice, chilly day outside. Ambiance for our door seating was good, next to main Street, not too noisy but bustling with cars. Chai tea latte was great (a little on the sweeter side) and the turkey sandwich on sourdough hit the spot. The prices are also very competitive and economically friendly for proportion. Quick service too!

If I go into the cafe and look at the grinder and the espress machine, can roughly guess the taste. The espresso extract for a cup of Americano always pulls out the hot water first to raise the temperature of the porter filter and adjust the boiler temperature moderately, but this cafe omitted many procedures. Machine management doesn't seem to be doing so well, and the taste wasn't so good due to over-extracting. If you drink it with cream and sugar, you can't feel the original taste of coffee, so they don't feel the need to take care of it. The interior decoration of the cafe was not bad and there are many outdoor tables outside, so I think it would be good to sit on a sunny day.

While I love the food and drinks and service, their ordering app is a big buggy and very frustrating. They photograph items in a particular way, but no where does it say you have to add the ingredients on the app. I ordered a pastrami sandwich with lettuce, Peperoncino, lettuce, tomato, etc. I got a glorified grilled cheese basically. I love going here but the app needs clarity. Some items you order actually are as photographed, others you are required to add the other ingredients that are photographed but their app does not tell you that. The staff was great and remade my sandwich with everything on it.

I stopped by GVA Café @ Mojo Hill and I have to say—it really lives up to its reputation for serving the best coffee in town. I ordered a cappuccino and it was perfect: rich, smooth, and balanced with just the right amount of foam. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it the kind of spot you’ll want to come back to often. Definitely a must-visit if you’re a coffee lover!
