Caffè Artigiano

Frommer's Review

Absolutely the best lattes in town, in my opinion. The trick is to start with the perfect beans, brew the coffee to an exact temperature, give the steamed milk the respect it deserves, and pour it out ever so slowly, forming a leaf- or heart-shaped pattern in your cup. This is latte-making as an art form. Pop in for a light lunch or pastry, too. The original location at 1101 W. Pender (at Thurlow) in the financial district is less intimate than the digs on Hornby, right across from the Vancouver Art Gallery; the Hornby location has a little outdoor patio perfect for people-watching. A new location is at 740 W. Hastings.
