Caffé Delish offers a refreshing take on the classic pumpkin spice latte

Just as the bloom of flowers mark a sure sign that spring has sprung, the arrival of pumpkin spice lattes (or PSLs as we like to call ‘em to cafes everywhere heralds the true start of fall.

Buuuuuuut we totally get it if you don’t want to go spending all your money over at Starbucks, especially when there are so many great local businesses that can be supported instead.

Luckily enough for you, us, and anyone else with a hankering for a sweet, delicious, and seasonally-appropriate beverage, PSLs are in no short supply at the Tri-Cities’ local coffee shops—but we think no one has done it quite as well as Caffé Delish.

The cafe’s early fall menu actually acknowledges that “early fall” can still mean “temperatures in the 20s” and provides a few fall options that won’t leave you sweating and asking for an ice water to go alongside that steaming cup of pumpkin spice.

We tried out the pumpkin spice frappe, which came topped with an adorable (and delicious) mini pumpkin spice donut.

The other options available are the pumpkin spice cold brew and the iced pumpkin chai latte, though we’re sure that some warmer PSL-themed drinks will become available as the weather cools off a bit.

The cozy location still offers outdoor seating, so you’ll be able to enjoy the last bit of summer-adjacent sunshine before the clouds roll on in.

Check out Caffé Delish at 2180 Kelly Ave. in Port Coquitlam from 9am to 5pm Tuesday through Sunday.
