Giancarlo Cafe
Coffee shop
👍 Only place to get a decent breakfast and coffee for cash on the Drive. Much better prices than those covidphobes in the area as well! The clientele give you a feeling that your not in politically correct pre-socialist Vancouver anymore, but in a northwestern suburb somewhere in Roma! TUTI BENNE!
