I have been frequenting Moja since the spring/summer 09. It came to me by word of mouth advertising which usually means something is right. I live in Richmond, otherwise known as, the coffee deadzone. I work in the film business and usually work at Lions Gate Studio or Vancouver Film studios. I ,quite literally, will plan my day around landing at Moja for my early afternoon cup.

The staff are knowledgable and are intimate with the manual press machine. There IS a variance to the coffee that comes out but it’s more like a range of different good tastes as infused by the hand that pulls it rather than same as last time stuff .

The owners are hands on guys who seem to empower their employees and thats a good feeling too.

I have also been drinking their coffee at home . Always good choices, even the American coffees which aren’t normally for my palette. I am an old school one cup at a time brewer that likes to pour hot water over fresh grinds. The coffee is always rich and fresh.

Can’t say enough good. Only bad is that they aren’t in Richmond too :0

LOVE this place. i’ve only been there once (it’s quite a trip from ubc to north van. esp if you dont have a car) but definitely hoping to go back again soon.
great coffee & latte art. knowledgeable and super nice baristas. & the cafe itself (including the lever machine & the roasting room window/showcase) is uber cute. a really good experience overall. =]

finally got the chance to go here today, glad we did. love the lever machine and the window to the roasting plant in the corner there. Probably one of the nicer cafes in vancouver, really comfortable feel.

Nice op. I never have any chances to go out anymore, but definitely will put this one on my top top priority. Cafe Crema is nice too. Good to see the small individual op. doing a nice job and getting the attention.

Sounds awesome. I’ll have to make my way over to North Vancouver one of these days. When I lived there (about four years ago) there were no decent joints until Brazza came along.
