Thank you for voting us Best Café on the North Shore! When it comes to the best quality coffee and espresso, Caffè Artigiano is in a league of its own. Regarded as North America’s premier coffee-house chain, Caffè Artigiano launched in Vancouver in December 1999 with a vision of an Italian-style coffee house and bistro that offered superior coffee, excellent food and a lively-yet-comfortable atmosphere. Caffè Artigiano holds the title of Canadian Barista Champion from 2003 through to 2009, and is the only company in the world to compete at the World Barista Championships more than once… seven times. Visit us for a heart-topped latte and a golden Italian panini, and enjoy a taste of what many believe is the World’s Best Coffee.
