Best coffee in the city , staff is super friendly and always willing to help out. Ambiance is warm and welcoming, with plenty of seating. No outlets however, and their wifi is off on weekends

Serious Eats

You'll have a great day after an excellent pour-over or espresso drink from Forty Ninth Parallel. Come as early as you can for optimal Lucky's Doughnuts choices.

John Howarth

The best coffee in Vancouver? Quite possibly! Lovely wood panelled interior, friendly staff and an AWESOME range of doughnuts ! A must visit....

Amy Ho

The old-fashioned chocolate donut is a must-have. Not too cake-y. Perfect with a cup of coffee .

Robyn Dignan

My first time at this hip coffee place . I love the apple maple bacon fritter . It is so light and fluffy. This is the best way to end my day

David Prestidge

Perhaps the most perfectly and precisely poured pour overs I've encountered and the old fashioned doughnuts are superb (though of the devil; nothing that good could be good for you)

Luis Lavieri

Having been born in Venezuela, I was skeptical about the Venezuelan Coffee ... But I shouldn't have been. It is by far the best coffee I have had in North America, comparable to when I lived in Italy.

Fabio De Donno

Loved the doughnuts . The old fashioned ones were a bit too cakey so go for the standard ones. Coffee filter & flat white ok but not great. Cute locations, friendly service & lots of laptops

Glenny S

My favourite coffee shop . Love the cool vibe of this place. Tried their Venezuelan coffee and it was delicious! Definitely recommend it.

Kara Tse

Hazelnut hot chocolate , cookies and the amazing apple bacon fritter are delicious. The cappuccino was a bit disappointing tho, not as good as Aus

J

The coffee is good but I'll be honest, I come here for the donuts ! Great selection of rotations flavours, plus the staple orange donut !

Deb Pickman

Salted Caramel doughnut - wish it was 1/2 the size but yummy. If you order them you can get tiny fresh beignets .

Andrew C

This might be the best coffee in Vancouver. A true staple of the scene.

Henry Tanaya

A wonderful place to grab a morning pick-me-up and some pillowy doughnuts . Plenty of comfy chairs to get some work done, too.

Anna Jorgensen

Working my way through all the #LuckysDoughnuts because they are heaven in my mouth. (And, again, I don't even like doughnuts .)

Joanna Kolskog King

The doughnuts are killer. Worth going to the Main St location just to have the Lucky's doughnuts . I recommend either the Old Fashioned or Pistachio

Tamea

Amazing donuts , good service (especially considering how packed the place always is) and outstanding caffeinated beverages.

KC Claveria

The pumpkin doughnut is awesome. The salted caramel one is too sweet (but still good).

miwi

It's absurd to say these doughnuts are anything special but the ambience is great - if you're "lucky" enough to get a seat. The Venezuelan coffee is good.

Doug Decloux

Best coffee I've ever had, the donuts are to die for, salted caramel a personal fave. Happy I live just down the street.

Kevin Skobac

The options are always changing. If you see mango passion fruit or blackberry chevre , get on them quick!

Connor Turner

The Berry Berliner is to absolutely die for.

Jayne Knight

I wish they made more scones . Their scones are a revelation, but they are almost always out of them by the time I arrive in search of one. Often have to settle for a fritter . O tempora, o mores!

Darryl Wright

If you can get here in December when they unleash the Egg Nog Snowball, you'll never look at doughnuts the same way again.

Marc Aafjes

Try the individual filter coffee options -- not a broad selection, but great choices

Jon Breisnes

Be careful combining the power of bacon and apple fritter . You just might tear a hole in the space time continuum... But it's entirely worth it.

Fabien Morere

The best place for old fashion donuts . ...2 locations...Main and West 4th

Dana Chung

Their Venezuelan coffee and coconut doughnut is to die for!

Crew

Best doughnuts you'll ever taste. Plugs all along the communal table . Free Wi-Fi, password not required. Read more

Colleen Wong

The doughnuts are the stars here. Peanut butter and Jelly is a messy delicious treat.

Y C

It's always packed but it's a cozy spot on a rainy, winter afternoon for studying or having light conversation.

Duygu ????

It is good to drink ur coffee when it is raining outside and especially if there r some oldsters sitting besides ur table..

Ada Juristovski

A donut that you can feel the weight of in your hand. Can't go wrong here.

Katya N

The cranberry/strawberry doughnut is great!

Ken S

The coffee . The doughnuts !! It's amazing there aren't more cops here =]

Katherine Moore

French cruller is to die for! Ask staff for suggestions, they are very knowledgeable .

Leanna Kotecki

I can't stop eating the bacon and apple fritters . I've been meaning to try others but its so hard to say no.

Raphael Marinho

Great cafe Gotta check it out, make sure to get the pistachio donuts .

Josay E

All about the French Cruller!! I enjoyed it with the iced tea .

William Ng

Lucky's Donuts and 49th Parallel make for a great symbiosis!

Karen Hamilton

Buy six or more doughnuts and get an 18% volume discount . No flat pricing for a dozen or 1/2 dozen since each item is priced differently.

Wong Keekee

Try the salted caramel old fashion , but should definitely get a coffee to go w the ooeeyy gooey goodness!!

irishboyinlondon

Well worth visiting! The coffee is great! Staff are really friendly too!

Jamie Wolfe

I'd say salted caramel doughnut I just ate was the best doughnut in the world

Timothy Chan

Everything! Yummy coffee and delicious donuts .

Roger Dash

Everything!

Tina Belcher

Coffee is great and donuts are good but not amazing

Ariela Badenas

People might hate me for saying that their donuts aren't amazing... It's good but not quite life-changing. Must commend them for the design though!

Neil Bruder

Come for great coffee and delicious donuts .

Roger Dash

I would stop off at Kafka for a coffee first then come here for donuts .
