| 24 hour coffee shops!
Anyone know any pretty good 24 hour coffee shops? Preferably in vancouver/burnaby area. Don't really care for amazing food like sandwiches or anything.
all I know of is waves, i'm not sure if bread garden is 24/7

I haven't been in ages, but Calhouns used to be awesome for fuelling up with late night coffee and food. It's a common place for UBC students to do some late night cramming before a test in the morning. I know I came across more than a few friends doing exactly that at 2 in the morning... |

Timmys usually depends if they have enough staff to operate 24hrs.
i knew 4 locations in edmonton that arent 24hrs when i lived there..
but yea, if you want coffee in the middle of the night, timmys are the best bet.
the only timmys in vancouver that i know for sure is 24hrs is on Terminal Ave and Main St. i get coffee there b4 i go work my graveyard shift.

Your best bet would be Bread Garden @ Robson and Bute. They have pretty sweet stuff to eat + Wi-Fi.

The one big problem with Calhouns is the lack of power outlets. Unless they put in more since I used to study there, there were only two places in the store to plug in. Also, I think now they ask you to buy something once per hour, and no studying during peak hours.
