Sprout Bread

Had a delightful experience at this coffee shop in Kelowna! The sandwiches and coffee were top-notch—I visited twice during my trip. It's a fantastic spot for breakfast or a quick bite. The place's design is appealing, and the service adds to the overall positive vibe. Highly recommend for a satisfying and enjoyable visit.

My friend and I walked to this location hoping to get some coffee and bread for our lunch today. Some reviews said that the sandwiches were lots of bread but not much meat or innards so we decided to take the bread home instead. We walked in and enjoyed the atmosphere inside. It looked like a great place to do some work or have a meeting. In fact, I did spot a group of people upstairs having a business meeting! They even have a kids table with small chairs up front for the kiddos. Something that confused us a tad was that there is another coffee shop beside this place that also serves coffee… so there’s two coffee shops side by side… why? We don’t know. It’s called sprout x slowside. After some inspection, it looked like slowside had some automatic pour over machines while sprout had espresso machines for the coffee. My friend said that most people don’t really know much about pour over coffee or order it for that matter. Most people get lattes and stuff from coffee shops… and if they do order pour overs, they want a barista to do it, not a machine. Where is the personality of the coffee if it is done by a machine! And those machines are expensive! Servers were often walking back and forth between shops which seemed a bit strange and unorganized. Also it looked like both shops had different baked goods at their counters. Also they had 2 coffee grinders. Are they grinding two different types of beans? Anyways, we ordered a flat white, a cappuccino and a rye bread from the lady at the till. She was very friendly and was quick to serve us! We got our bread from the counter and waited for our coffee to go. We waited for quite a while for the coffee .. maybe around 8 mins. It’s a good thing that there were lots of things to look at in the shop like plants, coffee beans, the bakers in the back who knead the dough. I would say that they are on the ‘slowside’ (pun intended) when it comes to making coffee. Eventually we did get our coffee and it tasted pretty good! I had the flat white and it wasn’t too bitter and it was definitely a smooth beverage. When we got to our air bnb we were excited to try the bread!! We got out the 2 serrated knives in the kitchen and one of the knives could not cut it so we had to try the other knife. It took a lot of patience and some strength to really cut this bread as the crust is really thicc! We had to really let the blade go back and forth quite a few times to cut some slices. Sadly my friend didn’t have the best of luck and cut it unevenly and could not toast it well on the frying pan for his open face sandwich. All in all though, the bread was delicious. The inside is moist and complex in flavour and the crust isn’t too hard to bite as it has a good chew.. after a while though, my jaw was a bit sore from the workout. UPDATE: It has been a few hours after eating the bread and drinking the coffee and we both have noticed that we are a bit gassy!! Is it from this place? It’s still a mystery.. Now would I would go back to this place for coffee and/or baked goods? Heck yes! I would even enjoy studying or reading here!

As a local, this is a must-visit place on your visit to Kelowna. The atmosphere is lovely and their patio is quaint on a sunny day. Great coffee and even better sourdough and pastries. All-time favorite is their table loaf (I use this for sandwiches) and their cheddar green onion scones. Today, we met friends here for brunch. I was blown away by the oatmeal with rhubarb compote. We also ordered the butcher sand which and soup. I recommend the butcher, among all sandwiches! As for parking: there is paid street parking and a paid lot next to the bakery.

I loved this cafe/restaurant and would definitely come back when I visit Kelowna in the future. The place is quite spacious and they bake their own bread in the kitchen behind the counter. Everything that we tried was fresh, delicious, seemed like it was made with local ingredients. We tried two sandwiches, the Gardner and the Ploughmen. My personal favourite was the Ploughmen but the Gardener was also pretty tasty. We also got the crème brûlée donut as a dessert and I also grabbed an americano to wash down all the food. I loved everything that we’ve tried and the lineup was definitely worth the wait! Check this place out if you’re ever in the city

Ok the pics on Google don't do this place justice. I thought I was just going to a regular old bakery. Not so. These folks are legit crafting their bread with meticulous precision and passion, as well as making amazing sandwiches with sides like in-house ketchup and great coffee. All this in a huge warehouse-like space with high ceilings. There's a second floor, ground floor and patio area outside so tons of space.

Always great food, relaxed atmosphere, and delicious drinks. Prices very reasonable and fair. Seating outdoors, indoors on main level, and upstairs. We go out of our way to come here every time we come into town. Great morning spot with family, friends or alone! Love their Iced Chai tea, Avocado toast and yogurt/granola bowl! Find it in the back alley way.

My favorite brunch spot in Kelowna. I love the rustic atmosphere and the quality of everything is top notch. The coffee here was delicious! We got a cappuccino and an iced latte. The crispy potatoes are a must-try. We ordered it with a side of cheese custard - yum! For sandwiches, we got the Montreal Smoked Meat & The Ploughman. Loved the Ploughman, it was sweet and savory. The smoked meat sandwich we found a little dry. Be careful with the toast, it scratched the roof of mouth a bit 😂 We tried a friends’ Salted Rye Cookie and it was so fudgey and decadent. A must-visit spot.
