Lix Espresso and Ice Cream Hornby Island

Open from 7am until 7pm, this little cafe is located at Hornby Island's Ringside Market.

Lix Espresso & Ice Cream offers hot and cold drinks and some milk alternatives. There was soy and oat milk during our visit.

They also have a few different pastries depending on the time of day. We saw muffins, apple strudels and croissants.

Not many places are open at this time, so it's a great spot to get your coffee and sit on a bench at the Ringside market.

There is, of course, ice cream too 🍦 and it's nice to support the local businesses.

Coffee Bike Mobile Coffee Vancouver

We've tried Coffee Bike conveniently located at different locations around the city. This one is at a playground, dog park and along the seawall.

It's always a pleasant surprise when we are out and see there's a cart. Grandparents and kids also look forward to getting a drink, especially when it's chilly out. Kids usually get the Hot Cocoa. They also offer milk alternatives like Oat milk. Hot drinks make playground time a bit more tolerable in the cooler months.

We noticed the cart started selling hot dogs more recently too. We usually just get the drinks - iced or hot available!

Coffee Bike also caters for company events. Keep an eye out for them around the city! 

Don't forget your snacks!
