Brunch in Vancouver, WA: What's on the Menu at Kafiex Gastro Café
Good coffee deserves good food next to it. At Kafiex Gastro Café on the Vancouver, WA waterfront, breakfast and brunch are served daily — house-made from scratch, with a weekend lineup that goes a little further than the weekday menu. Here's everything on the board right now, plus how to plan your visit.
Where and When
Kafiex Gastro Café is located at 100 Parkway Pl, Vancouver, WA 98660, right on the waterfront. Breakfast and brunch service runs:
-
Monday–Friday: 8:00 am – 12:30 pm
-
Saturday–Sunday: 8:00 am – 3:00 pm
The weekend window is longer, which lines up with a slightly bigger menu — more on that below. Hours and the live menu are always confirmed on the official menu page, so check there before you head over if you're cutting it close to close.
Everyday Menu (Available All Week)
These items are on the board seven days a week:
Most savory items can be built out further with add-ons like ham, an extra sausage patty, avocado, or chorizo for +$3.
Weekend-Only Additions
Saturday and Sunday bring three extra items that don't show up on the weekday board:
If you're planning a weekend visit specifically for the pancakes or the omelette, remember the extended 8am–3pm window gives you more room to make it work around a lazy morning.
Something for Everyone
The menu is marked with dietary icons for vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, so it's easy to scan for what fits. The Yogurt Bowl and Avocado Toast are both vegetarian and gluten-free as served, and most egg dishes can flex with dietary needs on request.
What We'd Order With Your Coffee
Kafiex runs one of the larger siphon coffee bars in the Pacific Northwest alongside a rotating pour-over lineup, so pairing your food with the right cup is part of the fun (Kafiex):
-
Avocado Toast + a bright pour-over — a washed, high-acidity coffee cuts through the richness of the avocado and EVOO.
-
Breakfast Burrito or Chorizo Scramble Bowl + a bold espresso drink — the chipotle aioli and chorizo hold their own against a darker, chocolatey shot.
-
Buttermilk Pancakes + a nitro cold brew — a cold, slightly sweet contrast to the spiced whipped cream.
There's no official pairing menu — this is just where we'd start.
More Than One Way to Visit
Gastro Café is the full breakfast and brunch destination, but it's not the only Kafiex spot in town. The original Kafiex Coffee Lab on Esther Street — right beside the Vancouver Farmers Market — also serves coffee and pastries, plus retail beans and coffee classes, if you're looking for something quicker before or after market hours.
Plan Your Visit
