Since opening in 2008, Café Medina has carved out a niche as a truly exceptional breakfast, lunch and weekend-brunch destination that effortlessly blends eclectic bistro fare, connoisseur-savvy coffee and sweet nourishment via the city’s best Belgian waffles and in this very different time is extending its menu with dinner-friendly dishes and an elevated cocktail, wine and beer menu.
While the name Medina has many interpretations, it was selected for its connotation to “radiant or enlightened city”. Indeed, this unique café quickly shone as one of the city’s most stylish additions, thanks to owner Robbie Kane’s pioneering attitude towards café culture and distinctive brand of enlightened hospitality — an ideal complement for the café’s instantly memorable, Mediterranean-inspired cuisine.
Café Medina doesn’t simply serve food — Kane and his staff pride themselves on feeding the soul of each and every guest and providing them with sustenance in every way, shape and form.
It's this signature Medina mystique that has made the café a Vancouver institution, and is the reason its guests keep returning again and again, and is now extending that hospitality to take away and delivery.
