Cafe Dorothy

Very pricey cookies. One cost around $4 and the taste was not worth the money. They were over baked, dry and too crunchy in my opinion. Never want to go back there.

Very good coffee. Location is okay. Kind staff. Owner was very nice. Atmosphere was friendly.

I just experienced a worst customer service. The Asian male at the front was not smiling at all and seems angry to customers. I don't know if he is owner or a server, but he have to change his attitude. One person didn't understand what he said "for here to go" He asked twice a bit angry voice. And I asked something but his response was kind of aggressive. The price was also expensive ($8 for single espresso and a bread). I will not go there again. It made my afternoon unhappy.

I was pleasantly surprised by café Dorothy, I didn't know what to expect and came in with zero expectations, after someone suggested it to me. Their pastries all looked fabulous and there was quite an array, something for everyone but their strawberry shortcake is what caught my eye! It was packed in a cute to go box with a handle, take out convenience at its finest. The cake was an even amount of chantilly cream, fresh strawberries and vanilla sponge cake, not too sweet either, perfect and refreshing! Their savoury menu is quite small, they had 4 sandwiches to choose from in their display case, when I arrived. I chose the ham and cheese. I was a little apprehensive with how much romaine there was on that sandwich and definitely confused why they gave me a side of relish with it but I decided to eat it as served. Oh man, I will be back for that sandwich!! The lettuce turned out to be the perfect amount to add a fresh element to the croissant sandwich, between the cheese, ham and buttery croissant, it needed that addition and the relish was an added cut through the otherwise richness of the ingredients. Today I learnt that I don't mind relish on ham and cheese sandwiches. Their coffee menu hosted some classics and some unique to their location, they also have house made 'ades (like lemonades) and I'll have to come back to try that, they looked delicious. I tried their iced toffee nut latte and really enjoyed it, the coffee wasn't bitter, it was very smooth and it wasn't too sweet, which was perfect because I always worry about that when syrups get involved. There is more on this menu that I need to try, I'll definitely be back!!

Love this cafe! The coffee tastes really good. My husband had a sip of left-over coffee of mine, and asked me where I got it. ??? They make fresh baked goods at the cafe, I had almond bread(don’t remember the exact name) and it was good. Planning to try different bread in the future. Highly recommend the place :D

A hidden little gem! A quaint little cafe / pastry shop. Their croissants (plain, cheese and almond) are huge, light and flaky. Especially the almond croissant is delicious. Their cakes (strawberry shortcake, sweet potato mousse cake and red velvet cheesecake) are beautiful and made with good ingredients. You can taste it’s made with care. Their cold caramel latte is great with nice coffee taste and level of sweetness is just right.

Went near closing time and ordered a green tea fog. Price point is fair and the drink was made quickly. The use of a tropical green tea was a bit surprising, but it was alright. Probably would have preferred a standard green tea instead. There is quite a bit of seating and the tables seem to be separated to accommodate for physical distancing. The decor and color scheme of the cafe is simple and muted, making it an easy choice to sit and have a cup of coffee or meet with a friend. The cafe also has a selection of baked goods. Will be coming back to try those in the future.

It is one of my favorite coffee shops in Coquitlam centre area. Very good coffee and pastries here. Like their sweet potato and strawberry cakes (recent visit that fruit cake replaced the strawberry cake, don't konw if this is temporary or permanent). Danishs and croissant are also very good. My son loves their cranberry sandwich rolls. The only down side is because it is located in the mall, many times we parked the car and came in and it was full. Then we had to get into our car and move to another place. Service is good but could be slow when there are many customers.
