Was on a surprise "unofficial food tour" that particular morning.
Tried Fife Country Bread and a chocolate chip cookie.
Fife Country Bread is something I've been dreaming of, it is one of the best loaves Ive had in Vancouver. Must order! They do half loaves. It was so good, I ate that bread naked when I had an array of condiments and meats, cheese, spreads all laid out. It was delicious the 8 hours I had it from hour one to hour 8 toasted.
I did a Chocolate chip cookie battle that day. Fife vs Flourist. Flourist won. However they gave us the wrong cookie that day for my friends

Delicious stuffs they bake in this store, sourdough-breads, croissants, etc...but their store opening time is a bit late for bakery (9am weekdays, 11am on Sunday). And croissant is not ready until noon...seriously !? Usually people want fresh croissants in the morning. Time management this business performs is a bit disappointing, but quality of their products are great.

The first time I went to Fife was to try their mango milk hot crossed buns. I got 2 very fresh ones (they were still warm) and absolutely loved it. The mango taste is very subtle to the point where I couldn't really notice though, but I really like the overall flavour of the spices and nuts/fruit inside. The cross was also very delicious, very reminiscent of the cookie topping of pineapple buns. The matcha latte was very tasty although I would have preferred a slightly stronger taste of matcha. Staff was very nice and attentive. Overall, great first impression and will definitely visit again

Visited for the Hot Chocolate Festival and it definitely did not disappoint. Truthfully, I only went because I wanted the adorable corgi cups and I didn't even look into what their hot chocolate was. I was very pleasantly surprised with the first taste of the fruity mango mixed with rich dark chocolate. It was absolutely delicious! I never would've thought mango goes well with chocolate, but now I know!
I also ordered a latte. Even though Moving Coffee is gone now, the coffee quality has not diminished at all. This was probably my first experience ever where I had to choose the coffee

This apple pie was scrumptious. A classic apple pie done extremely well. From the tender and flaky rich dough, offset by the sweet and tart moist apple slices and the aromatic hint of spices, it was a wonderfully made dessert.
A great balance of textures and flavours all in one bite. This was one of the better versions of apple pies we have tried. A perfect Christmas after dinner dessert, of course, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

I had the pleasure of encountering this cozy bakery a month after it opened in the Mount Pleasant neighborhood in 2016 and I have continued to be a return customer since then. Fife Bakery prides themselves for locally sourcing ingredients, as they always strive for quality and perfection in the nutritious baked goods and coffee they sell. The amazing one of a kind positivity that the owner Felix, and his staff embody is something that all establishments should possess. The knowledge that he has on creating food is beyond his years. He treats every customer with respect and answers each of their

I really liked the coffee here. I had the macchiato & had a taste of the espresso used in the macchiato on the side for an extra 0.50 cents. It was floral and full of flavor.
They also sell fresh baked bread and a few other goods. I bought a half of the raisin walnut bread and it tasted great. The cost of half a loaf is $5.75.
The service is very good and the space is just a small area but well designed. It's a great stop for a quick coffee, or you can order beans & bread to go.

Fantastic little bakery tucked away and hidden away. You can't see this unless you know know about this. On top of that it is a small little coffee place too.
Anyways, I mainly come here for the sourdough… bread. Living for the little bird feeder, if you are into special bread loaded with delicious little treats. And they make their bread fresh daily!
Their sourdough can be the life of the party, as I have brought them to many and just be eaten on their own with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Love their bread tons and will be buying more in the future!

First time in Vancouver and first time at Fife. I love soft chocolate chip cookies, and this bakery was selling my heaven in a bite. Don't even get me started on how delicious their sourdough is. So much so I took some back to the States with me, and still just as good despite its long journey! Already looking forward to my next trip to Vancouver and Fife~

I stopped by Fife before heading back to Seattle to try their porridge bread, sausage roll, and chocolate chip cookie.
Everything was so good!
I shared the sausage roll with my friend and we ended up fighting over who should get the last bite. I also brought the porridge bread back to share with my family and my mom loved it so much that she plans on stopping by this bakery when she drives up to Vancouver for Chinese New Years.

Given how tight the parking situation is in this neighbourhood it's not worth most people's time to bother with this odd little place.
Half the time there is nothing to eat but cookies- the bread is either all gone or not done yet and the attitude from the weirdos working there is just too much.
And the prices!
$11 for a loaf of bread FFS!
And since when did half of $11 become $7?
Guess I went to the wrong school.
Anyway look for the new Purebread up the street to wipe the floor with this marginal operation and no loss to anyone.

Fife Bakery is located on 3rd Ave and near Quebec Street. I heard about a young talent guy open his own bakery in town. I was quite excited to check it out.
It's small bakery shop and very limited of levain bread. I bought loaf of sourdough and baguette.
Crusty dough and moist inside, it's good to try but it's not my cup of tea.

We LOVE the bread from Fife--both the country and the porridge loaves are excellent ... when we can get them. This is a small bakery amidst Mt. Pleasant's industrial area. Definitely an excellent addition to the neighborhood.
...but the past two times I've been, there has been no bread available. On one occasion we were told loaves wouldn't be ready for another hour and on another occasion it was "only" going to be a 20 minute wait. I'd love to go, just once, and be able to walk in, order a loaf--or half loaf, which they kindly offer--and pay and leave. Now, both

Fife Bakery is a new addition to the Mount Pleasant neighbourhood that specializes in rustic old-school bread using traditional baking techniques. This is a bread lovers paradise! The loafs have a moist, fluffy, airy inside with a crispy crust. Felix Yau is the 22 year old owner and baker behind Fife. He baked his first loaf in a tiny toaster at the age of 9. Currently the space is shared with Moving Coffee, a local roaster and barista. The bakery is open for business Tues-Saturday while the coffee shop is open Tues-Sunday. On Sundays, the baked goods are from Moving Coffee.
