High quality delicious food and the customer service is extraordinary. Everything o the menu is superb.

Stopped by with my husband & his buddy Don for mid afternoon coffee at the ladybug Bakery mid August. Inside was very busy & noisy so we grabbed a table in the outside tent in front of the shop . A waitress came to take our order . We enjoyed a couple nice lattes & a regular Americano . We tried a neat bakery item called a Cruffin .. a large baked treat which is like a croissant and muffin mix . It was great & I will have to come back to try other flavors . They had a filling inside and were delicious! read more

I always have an amazing experience whenever I go. The staff are kind and the food is always great.

just lovemy. Delicious coffee. My avocado toast with poached eggs was divine. My son had Chicken and Waffles Poutine - delicious super friendly, will be back, desserts look outstanding read more

Cute little place but must say very expensive. They charge if you substitute anything. There were a lot of hidden charges that I was unaware of till I went to the till to pay for. The custom service was good but it's extremely Slow. We had waited over an hour to Get Our food. The food has amazing presentation and the Nutella Crepe was our favourite! The wedges were also good. The food was good but defiantly $$$. read more

We lived close to ladybug cafe for years back in 2010s. It was always known as a boutique bakery with unbelievably delicious items. They added a few delicate brunch options later on which were all great. After moving from Calgary about five years ago, I went back recently to Ladybug in one of my visits and was a bit disappointed. The place has gone through a major change and has become ore a less a full on American style diner. The coffee and the brunch items I tried were average at best, but I could see they can now accommodate more people and had a bigger market. I realize the original owners sold the business years ago, so it is definitely not what it once was. read more

I moved to the area a couple of months ago and one of the first places I went was this cafe. I have come here an average of 3 times per week since. I've eaten at probably 100 different restaurants in this city and I have to say this is among my most favorite. Not only is the food good but the ambiance is nice, and what really put it over the top is the owner's friendliness. She makes every customer feel like they are special. I would come in here with my girls most days in the mornings for breakfast and she would always check in on us. Her friendly staff is always so helpful and kind. I definitely recommend this place, and all (so hard to choose) the items on the menu, you will be happy you did! read more

Lovely place for a nice coffee break in the afternoon on a Sunday with a colleague .I ordered the mochaccino - apparently it's espresso, dark chocolate and a bunch of other awesome stuff.my colleague had one of the "red" (ie rooibos) drinks. I actually saw the place when I was at sushi place right next to it earlier this year and I wanted to try it so today I made the effort to come over with a colleague to enjoy this café place today. I really enjoyed the atmosphere.and the set up.People working there were lovely. read more

The cashier is very rude, bad attitude, and not really having a customer first mindset. My friend and I waited for our breakfast order longer than 30 minute, we were only waiting for the parfait. Half way through, we ask one of the server, she was very annoyed that we interrupted her and she just say they will call your name when it's ready. We waited for another 10 minute, still nothing, we went back to another cashier, end up they actually forgot our order. This could all be avoided if they care about their customer a little more. They are very unorganized, customer pretty much have to fend for yourself to get a table. Very disappointed that this place is still not customer focus. read more

Just had their Pizza "the Veggie Shack" for the first time!! OMG! This is by far the best pizza I have ever had!! And that's saying a lot! The crust is incredible. The toppings are as fresh and abundant as I've ever tasted! You've got to try the pizza!! read more

I came to the Ladybug Cafe in September 2022, I had heard great things about it, and ladybugs have a special meaning to my heart. Cute little place, atmosphere was amazing, vibrant and energetic. The service was absolutely terrible, (7) new waitresses in 2 weeks, not very knowledgeable, chaotic people everywhere, pastries were way over priced but the place was extremely busy... must be doing something right. Most likely will not go there again. Very Very disappointed. read more

Not only this place has very nice desserts, it also has very good breakfast and lunch food. I love their buckwheat crapes and Cobbs salad. Everything is very good quality with European flair. Service is very good. read more

Great food. Order from here frequently. They are not wearing masks during recent visit. Will be looking for this before ordering again.

This restaurant is not what it used to be. The costumer service was not the friendliest. Ordered the chicken and waffles benedict with medium eggs and was greeted with a waffle benedict with ham, bacon, spinach and extremely leaky over easy eggs (With a side of pear that was quite rotten and brown). My friend ordered the beef poutine and received overly salted potato wedges and a sauce that had an orange flavour that was not pleasing with the savory beef and wedges. Also, there appeared to be a strange fluffy substance in the sauce. And my friend pulled a twig like item out of her mouth while eating. I ordered the dream chocolate cake and it was quite strange. The mousse was an awful texture and the bottom of the cake tasted like yeast and admitted a foul odor. Also, I found more fluffy substances in my cake. My friend ordered the raspberry tarte and the shell was rock solid. The raspberries tasted awful and the mousse was not fresh and left her feeling ill. The bottled Fiji Water was the best part of this meal. We have had a negative experience and will remember this forever. read more

I have now been here twice. The first time I went I just had a latte and a cruffin, the lady at the till was very welcoming and friendly and was great when I asked questions. We sat down with our pastries and our coffees took forever to be made, we had finished our pastries and sat and talked and still had no coffees so I went up to the bar and asked for them to go. Second time I went for breakfast, much better experience. Everything came very quickly and service was great. Only complaint is there are very few waitresses working during a brunch rush on a weekend. My boyfriend had requested hot sauce and it was never brought to him as the girl was helping a lot every table in the restaurant. read more

Such a cute little cafe in Aspen. I came at a non busy time, so I had the luxury of browsing the counters and the pretty jam-packed signs filled with what they serve. Despite it not being busy, even I felt overwhelmed with all the somewhat kitschy stuff everywhere. There's a little corner for juices, and weird pamphlets all over. It just made me feel sort of anxious when trying to make a decision on what to order. I panicked and just ordered a chai latte. They charge $3 for an upgrade to almond milk - almost the same price as an entire carton. So I ended up paying almost $8 for a teeny latte. Insanity! Yes, it was delicious and the art was cute, but the price is ridiculous. They really pack people in on busy days, as even though it wasn't busy, the tables were SUPER close together. This place needs to get an identity and simplify - less is more I think, as they just have too much going on with their menu. read more

I've come here twice within a week while visiting Calgary. I'm not too keen on the ordering process where u line up and look at the menu above. I feel like I need to rush to decide what to order. Then u get a number and they bring out your order to your table. It gets soooo packed in there on a Saturday afternoon you cannot even get a seat. Sure, you can order but after that you may need to stand wherever while waiting for a table to leave. The concept is flawed. On the other hand, the food is absolutely of the highest quality. It is very pricey at about $13.50 for a crepe but they do use organic ingredients. The strawberries are very fresh. The coffee is really quite good too. Even with the steep price I keep going back because I gotta say, you do get what you pay for in this case. I usually order strawberry with banana crepes & a bowl of chicken soup. (Because crepes alone won't fill me up.) The soup is really quite good. It is very baby friendly and they have high chairs that attach to the table for them. The staff is so helpful and absolutely friendly. Love it! The lost star is merely only for the crazy prices. read more

I take some of it back. I was there visiting the Cafe (the owners are old clients of mine) and they surprised me with a Crepe and Coffee. I was floored. The Ham and Cheese Crepe was absolutely awesome. I was also pleasantly surprised by the equally impressive cappuccino as it offered a good sublime flavour that complimented the crepe well. The only issue I find still is that it's still pretty far and out of the way for me in general (a 1/2 hour drive) especially as none of my friends and family live anywhere near there. But I'd like to run down there on a lazy Sunday with nothing to do and enjoy a brunch soon. read more

1. Very Nice staff they always had a smile on. Hard to come by these days. Also they said thank you for your business many times I truly think the staff must be happy or very good at faking it hahah... 2. Salmon bagel was very tasty would recommend it haven't tried anything else but did see some of the other dishes they looked amazing also very clean looking. 3. Price is fair 17 $ for a lunch with a drink and muffin not bad when you go to Starbucks you definitely don't get the a+ service or the fresh meal as I got today. Thanks guys keep up the good work. read more

Great food and service! The smoked salmon eggs Benedict with potato pancakes were amazing! I also tried some pastries, the lemon tart was to die for! Will definitely be back :) read more

Why so many bad reviews? This place is DELICIOUS!! Can be Pricy, buy fair for the quality, portions and ingredients. Different ordering and table system, but it's a small place and it works well. I've been coming here for years and their food is consistently delicious and always fresh! I've tried many items but we come back for the smoked salmon crepe and chicken sausage potato crepe. Both are delicious, fresh and filling but not greasy what so ever! Makes a treat brunch feel a bit lighter. We usually end off with a dark chocolate waffle. All their crepe and waffle combos are awesome though! Coffee and pastries are yummy too. If you like quality food, don't miss out! read more

Visited today August 8/2021 Do not recommend . Service was terrible . Very expensive for quality of food and service . Coffee took 20 minutes to get . Service was poor . Food quality was below standard . Mistakes in order. Corrections made with little concern for customer . Waited long to be served. Cleanliness in washrooms and kitchen not up to par . This place is nothing like it was 5 years ago .It must have changed ownership as the quality of staff now to then is miles apart . Will not be back Ina read more

One of my best modern cafe and I would go here more often if it wasn't so far. The service is great, the staff are friendly and can assist in recommending dishes. I highly recommend eggs Benedict, but I mostly love all of their food. If you want something different, try their kimchi pasta or kimchi crepe. The pastries are also recommended. read more

I went to Ladybug Cafe the other day with my friend because we had heard good things about it. We walked in, and were really confused about the ordering process, however, seeing as they are going for that European type vibe, I can see why they wanted to do it like that. I don't mind the whole ordering process, except since it was our first time there we both wanted to look at everything and take our time deciding. We had to let several people budge in front of us in the line because we were taking so long to decide, and it was a little awkward and I felt rushed...In the end I got the chocolate crepe and my friend got some fruit and yogurt crepe. We both decided to just get tea because we were paying outrageous amounts for our crepes and tea was the cheapest haha. Our food was really good. The presentation of it was beautiful and I almost wanted to just stare at my food rather than eat it. One thing I liked about this place is that their staff are really friendly and on top of everything. Although it is a cafe, we had a dining experience because the girl working kept coming over to see how everything was and cleared our plates for us etc...which only happens in regular cafes (such as starbucks) if you get an ambitious worker. This place is nice and the food was good, I just can't afford to ever come back again and get a crepe for 15$...it's a really nice place to treat yourself to but for the amount I paid I would've expected something that filled me up a bit more. read more

Since last visiting, the cafe is under new ownership and thank goodness for that! The vibe of the place has gotten much better and the staff are much more friendlier and accommodating! Food and drinks still taste the same - good and the atmosphere has changed for the better since under new ownership! Keep up the great work! read more

A great neighbourhood option. The atmosphere is refined and polished while being relaxed. My food and beverages have been good with many options. I think their speciality is breakfast and I often order lunch choices at breakfast, which is why I haven't given 5 stars. A good option for those that want a nice atmosphere. read more

It is a nice neighbourhood café, But they brewed coffee was not very good. I find a price a little bit expensive for what you get on your plate read more

One of my favourite breakfast restaurants in the city, the eggs benny is unreal. Service is always quick and great.

It has been a destination of our family for years now. Their pastries are decadent and well worth the drive.

I came here for the first time yesterday morning and was really excited because the place looked cute and despite hearing that the owner is super rude, I wanted to give it a chance and it's close to my house. I walked in and immediately no one offered to help and i had to say "excuse me". The owner was also there and was clearly agitated with her staff like I've heard. I started by asking if they have almond milk to make an almond milk latte. She said yes for 50 cents extra, so both my friend and I ordered one. When the total came up, it was almost $17, to which I asked if it was a mistake. She said no, and that it is $2.50 each extra for almond milk. WHAT????? So I'm paying over $8 for a medium almond milk latte? You could go next door to blush lane and get a carton of almond milk for $4, which is cheaper than paying for it at this place in my latte. What the actual F***? After I was extremely shocked at the price, she just stood there and shrugged her shoulders. I said that's absolutely ridiculous and if I could talk to a manager and she still just shrugged her shoulders and told the workers to hold on making the lattes. So I ended up walking out and going to Good Earth and the second i walked in there the girl said "hi girls! You look so cute, what can I get you?" I asked how much almond milk was and she said "50 cents!", then I told her about my experience at LadyBug and she told me she went there once and spent $20 on half a sandwich and a coffee. Ridiculous ..... I was hoping this place would be a lot friendlier and affordable but nope. if you want to spend $8.50 on a latte then this is the place for you! read more

Truly disappointed. Today is my birthday and to be very honest this was not fist my choice. But I thought I will give it a try and every time I go there I get disappointed over and over again. Today One of the crapes was hard to even cut through it and the other one was disappointing didn't even eat the whole thing. They made us pay $34 for something that wasn't even fished. She gave is 2 macaroons and they were soggy. No one bothered to even look or ask how the food was. I would have paid two times more than what I did just to have a pleasant decent birthday breakfast. read more

Would never go back again. Went to the Ladybug Cafe for mothers day with my family. When my brother went to pay the cashier said "I bet your dad pays the Visa bill anyway" Incredibly rude will never go back again. read more

WORST SERVICE EVER, DO NOT COME HERE. You can't sit down without an ordering number, you can't even wait for your friends to come first. The Owner came by while I was on the phone and my friend was in line to kick me out off the table and spoke very rudely and loudly such that other diners were looking at me; it was really embarrassing. She came over and yelled "WHERE IS YOUR NUMBER?" I said my friend is ordering, she responded with "WHERE'S YOUR NUMBER? YOU CAN'T BE HERE WITHOUT A NUMBER, YOU HAVE TO LEAVE." All the while I was on the phone and she was just shouting in my other ear. I was more shocked than anything. This is NOT a cafeteria, what kind of system is this? It's definitely not cheap enough to tolerate terrible service; in fact, this place is outrageously overprice. $12 for an onion soup? read more

I simply can't give this cafe more than two stars. Were it not for it's incredibly cute interior and beautiful pastry case I'd be giving them one star. I was there in the morning to get some work done while waiting for a doctor's appointment, excited to try a new place. I didn't check it out on Yelp! beforehand though. They don't have free wi-fi, so my mistake for not checking ahead of time. I told the cashier that it was my first time here and wasn't sure how this all worked - there is a process, believe me. She was more than happy to explain the number and table system. I think it's just confusingbecause it's a little like being a mouse in a maze when you walk in the door - narrow path going in front of the pastry case, then to the cashier, with not room to turn back if there are people behind you. When reviewing the milk options for hot drinks I was pleasantly surprised that they offered soy and almond milk. However, I just about fell over when she pointed out that it was an extra $2 to have almond milk!!! Really now, this is not even remotely close to fair for people who have intolerances. Once recovered from my sticker shock, I chose their Signature iced tea and wove my way through the tightly packed tables with my rolling laptop bag in tow (now that, my friends, was funny). The server brought me a glass and a stoppered bottle of water while I waited, but I quickly had to call her back because the water glass smelled musty. Then, the final straw came... I tried the Signture iced tea and it was incredibly, sickly sweet. Unsure of what to do since the server was very busy running around, I brought my drink up to the barista and asked about getting a cup of tea instead. The owner just happened to walk up, listened to my request and said it wouldn't be a problem. My next question was if I needed to see the cashier. After all, the iced tea was around $5 and the tea was just over $2, so fair is fair. She looked at me and said not to worry. "Not to worry about what?", I wondered. Not to worry that ey wouldn't refund the difference? When I brought this to her attention, she looked stunned that I would dare ask for even a partial refund, and walked off. She later found me at my table and told me she would "go to her car to get the change". What the !?!?!? The one nice thing I have to say is that their patrons are open and friendly. I chatted with the people sitting next to me and they, too, admitted that this place is pretty pricey. My only hope is that the owner would see that people may be willing to try her establishment, but many more will be unwilling to return. So very unfortunate. read more
