Every time I come here, the atmosphere is great - cozy space, clean, and cute decorations. I love the bone china that they serve their hot coffee in. Their coffee selections are great; my favourites are the Mandeling and the Ethiopia Yirgacheffe. They have their own small roaster and the cafe has a great fresh-roasted coffee scent.
Their service is always thorough and great, which I truly appreciate as someone from the same industry.
I don't know about their cake and where they are from, but if it is from Diplomat Bakery, I am happy with that; they have great cakes. :-)
Everybody wanted to hang out when we got back home, most of all H’s mom. We went to Cafe Savoureux, one of her favourite spots in Richmond to relax with a cup of coffee:. We had a piece of the chestnut cake and a blueberry cheesecake. The chestnut cake was average, I wouldn’t go back for it, but the cheesecake was bomb! Would highly recommend. I had it with the Naporitano (an Americano with lemon), which was another first… Not sure if it’s traditionally made that way, but I quite enjoyed it. It reminded me of the time we had espresso and tonic water in Nanaimo. H’s mom had the latte. H had a pourover (not pictured), which he didn’t complain about. Apart from the really great cake, the shop was cozy but not overcrowded on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. I think it does get much busier in the evenings, when the cravings for something sweet kick in.
My wife and I have frequented here several times and we really like the place. There are few coffee shops in Richmond where you can sit and enjoy a nice cup of coffee, or tea, and dessert in a quaint and quiet setting. The place is rather small however, not a lot elbow room. Nonetheless, recommended
Small and cozy. Good service.
They even have the famous Blue mountain coffee here. I was actually surprised to see only a few customers on a Friday night.
Cafe Savoreaux is comfortable and everything is exquisitely designed and presented. The drinks are really good, especially their specialty coffees. The space is very homely and the jazz music is a nice touch. The China plates on the walls are also a good decoration. The cakes are delicious, although I do wonder if they are homemade! I like the antique finishes to the cafe, I can see a lot of effort was put into decorating the cafe.

Although Richmond is often known for it’s cheap Asian cuisine, there are pockets of places that provide a unique experience you never would’ve known you could get. One that I have passed by several times is Cafe Savoureux. For whatever reason, I’m never really fully prepared for coffee and dessert when I’m in the area – I’m normally coming from a large meal. But since I was tasked by Tourism Richmond to sum up some great places to grab a cup of coffee in Richmond, I felt it was high time that I visited this place.
I like this place! Very finely roasted coffee and they even have some of those real high end beans like Jamaican Blue Mountain and the infamous Kopi Luwak which is coffee beans harvested from the excrement of an Indonesian Civet Cat. I wonder who was the first to think to try poo coffee? The coffee and tea service is exquisitely served on fine English Bone China and the place has a great atmosphere. Nice place to take a date or just chill with a good cup of joe!
Good Coffee. This is a nice, quiet place in Richmond with an antique-ish feel to it. Warm atmosphere for you to enjoy some good coffee. When watching them make my coffee and when I actually taste my coffee, I can tell that it is professionally done and with heart. I've tried their blue mountain blend and it is very aromatic and tasty -- even without cream/milk. I've also tried some of their desserts which were quite delicious -- chocolate mousse and panna cota.
It is a small place but the atmosphere is good and the coffee is great. It's not a place for people talking loudly. The cookies are tasty too
I've been craving an iced coffe-type drink for a while, so I ordered an iced caramel latte: This was absolutely delicious! It was just sweet enough with a slight hint of caramel, but still had the light coffee taste that I craved. If you like lattes, I'm sure you'd love this. My dessert date got the caramel pudding smoothie : Ohmygosh this was sooo yummy! Apparently it tasted like a slushy japanese pudding or like the creme caramel that I got: So. Damn. Smooth. It wa
I got the special of the day which was any cheesecake + a cup of syphon style coffee for $9.50. For the cake options they had Tiramisu, Earl Grey Cheesecake, Mango Cheesecake and Chocolate Cheesecake. I got the Earl Grey Cheesecake and I ordered a cup of Kenya AA Coffee. On the description for Kenya AA Coffee, it says all coffee lovers will love this so that`s why I chose it. The Earl Grey Cheesecake was super unique and delicious. I never tried anything like it before and I enjoyed it a lot. The description for the coffee was right..It was super delicious! I couldn`t stop drinking it and limmerZ actually wanted a sip but I was enjoying it way too much that I didn`t even save him any LOL

As you step in the restaurant, the aroma of coffee will surround you and the small coffee shop has an antique feeling to it
Cafe Savoureux is in the same strip mall as Best Bubble Cafe , Bubble World , and What8ver Cafe . However, it is very different in nature as it is an actual coffee house and not a bubble tea place. I passed by last time with Shamu and Mich and the sign out front featuring civet coffee peaked my interest, so I suggested this place to meet up with Dodo and Py. For those of you who don't know, civet coffee is renowned as the most expensive coffee in the world. The coffee beans are fed to an animal called a civet and are then harvested from its feces. That doesn't sound very appetizing, but supposedly the enzymes from the civet's digestive tract decreases the bitterness and creates a delightful aroma. We didn't end up trying this because we weren't prepared for the price tag: $60 for 4 consecutive presses (with 2 complimentary desserts based on the current promotion). It's actually not too bad if the three of us split the cost as sharing is allowed; perhaps we'll give it a try next time. T
If memory serves me right (which often it does not >
La Cuisson in Richmond is a Charming cafe hidden within Union sq. (Look for the big umbrellas outside) Family owned and operated, they have a good selection of specialty coffees and teas, as well as some desserts made in house. Free WiFi (time to
In the Asian ethno-burb of Richmond, BC, just south of this city, is a cafe that serves up a decidedly Asian take on specialty coffee. La Cuisson serves coffee crafted in a Vacpot…like at the multitude of European-style premium coffee shops in Japan, Taiw
Good coffee, yummy tiramisu, but didn't like the cheesecake, it tasted more like mousse cake. Great location and good place to chill & chat with friends
I like the atmosphere here, cozy little cafe. Coffee is pretty good and cake are decent! Would love to try their sandwich next time!
The décor and ambience of this little coffee shop is very welcoming. The staff are also very friendly. The coffee was quite good, and the cake was very nicely presented but was a bit lacking in flavour and texture. Would definitely go again to enjoy some coffee and chat with friends, but probably won't order cake next time.
Decent coffee. Cake available. Average/Below average cakes. Decorated interior. Small café, seating capacity of about 20 people. Neighbouring various restaurants and dessert shops. Free plaza parking. Close to Canada Line Aberdeen Station. Accepts debit, and cash.
A cute little shop serving up tea, coffee and cakes. They have a tea/coffee and cake combo, which is great value.
Good selection of tea and coffee.
4.5 star. Based on price performance. Previously tried cup of coffee n was disappointed. But later tried other specialty coffees n also cappuccino , very good taste . Cake is about 4.5 star
One of the best coffee tea houses. In Richmond no less. Real gem of a find. Cosy. Quiet. Gentle music in the background. Auspicious ambiance. Impeccable table service.
Nice quiet little coffee shop with fantastic treats! Definitely drop in for a visit!
