Cultivate cafe

Fairfield Island is not an obvious place for a coffee shop, which is most of what makes this one interesting. The Hope Slough curls around the southern edge of the neighborhood and cuts it off from the downtown, and what sits inside is about as close to purely residential as Chilliwack gets: a grid of detached houses, roughly 95 per cent single family, with more parkland per block than anywhere else in the city. It is the second smallest neighborhood in Chilliwack by area and still holds more people than half the others, which works out as a great many households and very little commercial frontage between them.

Cultivate cafe publishes a website, and that is the only channel this record carries; there is no phone number and no street address, so the postal code above is the way to place it on a map. Hours, days and what is actually on the counter are not things this page can tell you, and small independent cafes change all three more often than larger operations do. The site is the thing to check before making a trip, particularly a trip that involves crossing the slough from somewhere else in Chilliwack. A record this sparse is normal for a business of this size rather than a mark against it.
