4.8 Star Hidden Gem Cafe Spotted Opening A New Downtown Vancouver Location

It looks like one of Downtown Vancouver’s hidden cafe gems is levelling up!

Guffo Café, the tiny coffee spot tucked near the Sinclair Centre, has quietly built up a loyal following since opening in 2023.

And now, they’re getting a major upgrade.

The new outpost is taking over the former Titanium Studio space, one of the external-facing retail units of Hotel BLU, giving the cafe a far more visible and high-traffic footprint than its original hideaway.

For those unfamiliar, Guffo Café has been flying under the radar as one of the city’s coziest cafes.

With an incredible 4.8-star rating, the OG location may be small in size, but it’s earned big praise for its vibe.

Reviewers often describe it as a “secret little room” because of its intimate, warm, and refreshingly calm compared to the bustle outside.

But it’s not just the aesthetic that keeps regulars coming back.

Customers rave about the friendly team, consistently excellent drinks, and freshly baked pastries that make it feel like your neighbourhood cafe, even in the middle of the financial district.

The cafe has yet to share any official announcements or info about the new Robson Street location

Guffo Café now joins other upcoming food spots in Vancouver like Daan Go, Napoletana Pizza Robson, and Matcha Matcha.
