Last week, a bit of Commercial Drive came downtown as Prado Cafe opened its new Gastown location. The 100 West Hastings (at the corner of Abbott) location finds its place on the renewed block of Hastings opposite the Woodward’s complex.
The bright and stylish shop features the same great selection of Parallel 49 coffee beans for your coffee beverages created by owner and champion barista Sammy Piccolo. If coffee isn’t your thing, rich drinking chocolate and teas are on the menu. A rotating selection of sandwiches and baked goods round out the experience at Prado Cafe. With lots of seating and complimentary wifi, the Gastown location is an oasis in neighbourhood.
The Commercial Drive Prado Cafe continues to be a fixture of that neighbourhood and the expansion doesn’t end in Gastown, look for a Cedar Cottage/Kensington location to open later this spring.
