The Commons Cafe & Books

It's a friendly community ran cafe, cozy environment as you can see, and despite the barista is all working alone, they are attending to orders as fast as they can. Coffee is great and so is the scone even when unheated...so...

The Commons is super unique, delicious, and everyone is so polite. They have new and used books for sale, even selections from local authors. We sat outside in July and the patio was wonderful this time of year. Highly recommend if you’re staying in Langley or just passing through

Where to get a Vegetarian burrito that doesn't fall apart into a mess and manages to complement all the flavors in a soft tortilla? If you need it spicier, don't worry, they've got it covered with an array of mild to ghost pepper hot. Everything else was good too. Even though it's a bit complicated to visit by public transport from central Seattle, I would go there again.

I got a matcha tea and Bahn mi sandwich with tofu. Everything was tasty. It took a while to get my sandwich but it also looked like they were fairly busy. It was nice to be able to sit outside on a sunny day and bring my dog. They had water dishes out for dogs and umbrellas to provide shade. Lots of outdoor seating.

My first time at The Commons, and it didn’t disappoint! I had the turkey pesto sandwich with a salad and an oat milk chai. The sandwich was amazing—totally unexpected to get a full piece of chicken! The service was quirky and friendly, which I really appreciate. Their book section was fantastic, featuring tons of local authors, and I especially enjoyed browsing the poetry section while waiting for my food. It’s a quaint, delicious little spot, with a cozy vibe—several people seemed posted up working on laptops. I’ll definitely be back for both the food and as a potential work spot!
