Off The Tracks Espresso Bistro

Not too many vegan options, but the beetlt was great, we also had a hot chocolate with mandel milk, very nice.

I ordered the vegan bowl and it was a long wait time to get it. When I finally got my food, there were no borons in the bowl, so it was just a grundsalat in the round. When I asked theke if they could be stuck in them, as I expected, based on a description of eating, they told me they were out of them. I don't mind if you realize you're a main ingredient, but could you offer an alternative or maybe a refund? shady to serve it with a large part of the schirr, missing and nothing to say. in the round I paid $13 for spinach, tomaten and a half cut avocado, which took 30 minutes to arrive. will not go back.

We just ordered a German style Pilsner and a Beet LT. Took way too long to get anything, even a simple beer. The sandwich was very unique, though. The salty, crispy beets were an interesting bacon replacement. The avocado was a nice addition and the mayo was very tasty. The beer was from the local brewery and was very nice. We sat on the patio and just enjoyed some quiet time away from the chaos of the marketplace.

A muffin, avocado toast, and an $11 ack! sandwich no sides, just the sandwich! was $22. Yikes. We waited in a line with several other people while the cashier chatted blithely with the couple ahead of us, showing no concern for the line of hungry people waiting to give her money. The $11 Granville Green sandwich was on the bland side and worth about half what they charged us. The berry muffin was decent, but more expensive than a muffin should have been. The avocado toast was good, but that was about the only thing we felt approached it's worth in cost $6 . The cashier also didn't tell us what we were supposed to do after ordering. Do we wait to pick up food at the counter? Do they bring the food to your table? Do they shoot it to you from a t-shirt cannon? We just didn't know. I asked another customer who was waiting at the coffee counter and she said she didn't know either, and that she's been waiting five minutes for someone to start making the tea she'd ordered. She waited another few minutes before flagging down one of the half dozen people behind the counter and asking when her tea would be ready and how to get her food. The cashier apologized for not starting it, pointed to the girl emptying the trash and bus buns, and said she would make it. It was another five minutes or so before the tea was made. My toast took twice as long as the sandwich my buddy ordered, but the guys making the food were really apologetic for the wait, and it looked like they were going through avocado so fast that they couldn't keep up with the demand and that's why my toast took so long. Wouldn't come back, sorry!

Stopped in for brunch as we biked over to the island to eat here and see what 's what in the area. First of, we hated Granville Island. WAY too busy, children running all over the place/in the streets/up to people/etc. Not the restaurant 's fault but if you 're eating here... make sure you want to be in the area, not worth coming just for the food. Had the curry wrap, it was ok at best. Bland but well cooked. Berry muffin was good, I liked it more than my wife did. Person taking the order got my latte wrong, but my wife 's was delicious. We also bought some banana bread to take with us for later in the day. It was actually very good, and probably the best part of the visit. Vegan options very clearly marked and staff was very knowledgable about them.
