    I came across this coffee shop today and it's so cute!! The atmosphere is very comfy, the staff is lovely, and the coffee has great quality. I think I've found a hidden gem and my new to-go spot for coffee close to home!

    Cafe 1892 is a hidden gem, located inside a plumbing store, which gives it a unique charm. The coffee here is excellent—rich in flavor and perfectly brewed. What stands out is the affordability; for the quality, the prices are more than reasonable. Another great feature is that the payment system doesn’t default to asking for a tip, which is refreshing. It makes for a relaxed and enjoyable experience without any pressure. This is definitely a highly praised spot for grabbing a good coffee at a fair price. I highly recommend it if you’re in the area and want a quality coffee experience!

    Delicious coffee, amazing service (thank you Morgan). This place is a gem, and it reflects the owners who are also awesome!. I found the machine doesn't even take tips, the staff is well paid. It's sad that it's surprising when a place doesn't take a tip(should be the other way). The employees are happy,I loved my coffee and interaction with Morgan. The vibe of the shop was so different, and it's so cool to be in this industrial area, inside a plumbing store! Wow. What an experience. I'm driving back from the Fraser valley for this!.
