Grab-A-Java Coffeehouse & Roasterie

#sbshine has stood the test of time, continually improving in business ethics and community involvement. I have fond memories of when they first opened, serving an incredible cup of coffee in Mission. Now with their own roastery, they produce rich and flavorful beans that I enjoy both at home and when dining out. They even went above and beyond by delivering coffee to me during quarantine. Let's support this local gem and continue to enjoy their amazing products! #buylocal #amazing

Whenever I visit Mission, British Columbia, I always make sure to buy my coffee there, sometimes two or three times a day. The staff is incredibly friendly. When I go back to Ontario, I always bring back their coffee beans, which last me until my next visit.

We decided to grab a coffee to take with us on our way to Sasquatch Park. We had heard good things about this local spot and enjoy supporting small businesses. Both of us ordered lattes, one with soy milk. The service was excellent, very friendly, and the coffee was delicious. We didn't sample any of the snacks, but we definitely would stop in again in the future.

Friendly staff, good service. The espresso is decent. The drip coffee leaves something to be desired. They had roasts on drip, both of which were blends. I’m not sure if their brew ratio is correct or their brewer is not of very good quality,...but it doesn’t taste great. They sell single origin beans, so I’m not sure why they wouldn’t brew them. I had them make a pourover with my choice of beans, so that is nice. I chose the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe and it was ok. It seemed over-roasted, but judging by their cafe name, they are a bit behind the times in coffee trends.

I really enjoy the staff but have sadly observed the owner (I’m assuming he is, an older bald guy) yelling at them. I love the coffee but refuse to go somewhere that mistreats the people who work there. Experiences like these are really upsetting and...disappointing, ecspecially when the establishment is supposed to support ethical treatment.
