From a Spark of Passion
Ember Brew began not just as a business, but as a burning passion for crafting the perfect cup of coffee and fostering genuine connection. Our founders, Alex and Jamie, bonded over countless late-night conversations fueled by their shared love for artisanal coffee and a vision for a community space that felt like home.
The 'aha!' moment struck them during a serene morning walk through Burnaby's vibrant Oakhaven Lane. They realized the neighbourhood craved a spot where quality coffee met a warm, inviting atmosphere – a place where stories could be shared, ideas could brew, and friendships could flourish. And just like that, Ember Brew was born.
We invite you to join our story, one cup at a time. Experience the dedication, the warmth, and the craftsmanship that goes into every brew at Ember Brew, your neighbourhood cafe.
