Solid bakery and coffee shop in a hip part of town. Clean and charming with a hip alt soundtrack to boot. The almond croissant was a bit dense but good and their coffee cake was insane. Great coffee, and they open earlier than most other places on a Saturday. read more

Analog Coffee - Vanilla cappuccino - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

I was wandering down 17th when the need for a coffee hit me. I love trying out anything independent (I.e. Not Starbucks), so when I cam across Analog, it looked the sufficient amount of interesting, but not crowded. The staff was really friendly and on top of that, the coffee was really tasty. read more

Analog Coffee - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Hipster place to sip your coffee and people watch. I think the coffees are great, but I don't know about being one of the World's best coffee place.. I'm not super picky about my coffee though, all I care is that my americanos are served hot and don't leave an icky, acidic after taste in my mouth after a sip. I took off a star because this place is always really busy and it's next to impossible to find a seat. I like to be able to sit at a cafe and sip my coffee without having to fight people for a seat. read more

Analog, I serious love you. Now if you weren't stupidly busy every single time I walk in the door; I would love you even more. read more

Analog Coffee - Analog on a beautiful spring Sunday in Calgary - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Analog has great coffee--this is something we all know as this shop gains popularity here on Yelp. Some of their options can be a little intimidating, and the line moves quick. So you may be tempted to order an old standby (the panic Americano, for example). But I do encourage you to ask questions. Analog's staff is probably one of their highlights. Friendly, courteous, informative, and also very efficient--something you'll appreciate when you need that early AM coffee. Ultimately I'd say it's slightly on the expensive side when compared to its notable competitors such as Bumpy's, Artigiano, and Beano. However, they make up for it with attentive staff and great coffee selection. If you're still chasing that ultimate espresso, I do suggest Bumpy's. But if what you're after is expanding your palate with a mind-boggling variety of Fratello coffee, this is the place to go. Plan for about $15 for a drink and snack. read more

I'm probably going against the grain here but I feel like this place is popular because it's super hipster and trendy looking and not necessarily because the coffee is the greatest ever. My misto was pretty good, although TBH I don't feel like it was a whole ton better than at Starbucks but, I'm no coffee connoisseur so what do I know. The incredibly hipster vibe this place has is more of a con than a pro for me. It has a kind of pretentious feel, if that makes any sense, and that's just not my personal cup of tea. It is also SO loud and packed. I think if you like people watching it could be entertaining because there are families with children alongside hipsters but if you're trying to be productive it's a bit distracting. There are also only outlets at the bar seating along the windows. I think if I come back it will just be with a friend or two to hang out rather than to do work! read more

Analog Coffee - Misto - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Analog.... Best. Espresso. In Calgary. No competition. The "Godfather" espresso ... Hits. The. Spot. It hits all the spots. Even the secret spots. Analog's hipster elite staff run the show like groovy/happy caffeine commandos!! ... They deserve ALL THE PRIZES!! Bonus: Red Velvet Cupcakes. That's MY prize. White chocolate cookies and blue macaroons from outer space! A showcase showdown in my tum! read more

Analog Coffee - Street caffeine - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Great coffee, great service, great atmosphere, I really like this shop. Very modern and trendy feel here, not a lazy sunday feel, more of an urban evening place- like you want to wear a clean shirt and nice shoes when you stop in. Not a bad thing though, there are lots of hipster coffee bars around, nice to see a place with a different feel. I love that they saved the old corner store sign and incorporated it in too the decor inside- a nice touch for those who have hung around 17th for way too long ;) Super clean and modern inside, they make a decent chai latte that is not all sugary and syrupy. Dare i say it they used actual tea leaves not just 3 pumps form a bottle of pre made stuff! *gasp*! Didn't try the food, but it looked good. I would go back for sure, but I would treat this as a place to end a nice meal or an evening out with grown ups doing grown up things (ie after the ballet or a gallery opening, etc.) Basically they class it up a little, and i think that is a good thing now and then :) read more

Great people watching and decent coffee. Though if we are being honest, I prefer the coffee from Phil & Seb or Beano. One of the best things I've ever eaten is this smoky bacon and cheddar biscuit. It's a pretty crazy indulgence but I think it's worth it. Don't bank on getting a seat, best to grab and go. read more

We came because the coffee shop was listed as one of the "25 Coffee Shops Around The World You Have To See Before You Die" in http://www.buzzfeed.com/yezminvillarreal/coffeeshops-you-need-to-see-before-you-die#.jtRMWYeJ2 The location - at the corner of a crossroad - was awesome for some chilling in the afternoon. The atmosphere inside the coffee shop was so relaxing. People was working with smiles on their faces. My friend and I took a long time choosing which hand brew coffee we would like, which is a must try. We did not get a chance to talk to the staff but just by looking at their brewing behind the bar was already a pleasure. read more

What an amazing eclectic atmosphere, this is where to impress on a first date, and show your creativity instead of the boring Starbucks down the block. Great corner location with lots of light, and free wifi. Came in to check out some munchies while waiting for the burg next door at Clive's, and ended up with the lemon tart, which wasn't earth shattering, as to be expected compared to a bakery (probably an unfair comparison). friendly service. no amex. too bad they close so early, 10pm, this place will still be raking it in ;) read more

Visiting from Seattle and find myself coming back to this place everyday. They have great pastries, sandwiches and excellent coffee. The atmosphere is awesome, the staff is friendly, and they are throwing down some sick tunes all day. You're sure to love this place. They do everything right. :) read more

Analog Coffee - Great coffee, great staff and great atmosphere. - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

The best coffee in Calgary! Every time. The best baristas anywhere :) The food is ok but the coffee MmMm!!

My girlfriend and I decided to get off our suburban butts and headed to the core to try something new. It was my first time here so I cannot really give a full review. I got an iced Chai tea while she got an iced latte. I'll be honest that this is the first time I've ever tried an iced chai tea. It was not bad but it did taste a little too sweet for me. It also had a weird after taste, it's definitely possible that it requires an acquired taste. The iced latte is pretty good with its fragrant aroma and a smooth as well as a balanced flavour. The service is excellent, but the fact that the place was busy, we weren't able to stay in the café for long and enjoy the interior design. We sat out on the chairs provided outside. They were a bit flimsy but they did the trick. The place is clean and bright. Their drinks a on the pricey side. But overall, the establishment is good enough that we will for sure visit again. read more

The espresso is delicious here! Definitely some of the best roast/pull in the city. And the skill from each of the baristas is exceptional. My cappuccino couldn't have been any more perfect. Not to mention the location is beautiful. read more

I think the coffee here is decent, but nothing to scream home about. I like the environment - I only wish it was possible to find a seat. When it's busy (which is often) the place feels a little too cramped. I've probably been here about 15 times, and was able to find a seat right away maybe 3 of those times. At the time of this posting, I prefer both Kawa and Philosafy and both are a short walk from Analog read more

Amazing place, amazing café, great hangout place. Just loved it. You can enjoy a very romantic rainy day, snowed morning or sunny afternoon here and feel like you're living in a beautiful friendly magical world. Staff are very nice and friendly. read more

Analog Coffee - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

WOW! I love this coffee shop. It's a new fave, f'sho! . I have walked by it five hundred thousand times and never gone in. Why? Well, I'm not sure. But now I know what I was missing....and I'm ever so glad I decided to finally check it out. I'll tell you why I love it: 1) Cool and interesting people work here. And their sunny dispositions permeates the entire space - helping create a sunny vibe for all to experience. 2) The caramel steamed milk is BOMB. And I'd imagine the other beverages are equally as delicious (can't wait to find out). 3) Lots of natural light insight, and there are little tables outside where you can sit and people watch. The prices are what you'd expect for a trendy coffee shop on 17th, and the lay out of the place is pretty basic (but with a fashionably elegant design). read more

Nice coffee shop in a very trendy area of Calgary. Service was good I had a latte, but was unable to find anything to eat it was not a sugar high. Just an offering have a English muffin or toast would be wonderful. Everything is baked and loaded with icing sugar, corn syrup etc. I would come back, but not when I'm hungry Really nicely decorated, I love the idea of playing old records read more

Beautiful views of 17th avenue! No better way to enjoy your morning, afternoon, and evening cafe!

Although you are sometimes paying close to $5 for a drip coffee, I would have to say that there is a distinctiveness and certain quality that is brewed into your cup. I like how they change up the selections and describe what tastes you can expect. My only complaint is that the coffee seems to be a little colder than other places. The staff are friendly and the place has a nice, clean vibe. Baked goods are delicious too. I'd say this place is more of a 'treat' than my daily coffee shop as you can easily rack up $7 - $10 per visit for your cup of joe and a light snack. read more

After a stroll along 17th one beautiful Spring day (without snow) we made a coffee stop at Analog. And I'm so glad we did. This is the second Analog location that I know of (other one is at the Calgary Farmer's Market). They locally roast their own beans and have the ever so popular pour-over system for drip coffee. For some reason I love watching the coffee drip, taking a moment in space & time to remove noise & technology from my mind, relax and smell the coffee. Since these moments are far & few between, when they happen, I am grateful. The kids were in tow and were fascinated as well. This is not a place to rush in and out of if you are in a hurry. I like you can walk in one door.....follow the counter along as you order & pay and at the end is your coffee fixin's station by a second door, of which you can exit. There is a modest amount of seating if you are in for the long haul or want to take a load off. Sidewalk Citizen Bakery provides Analog with some delectable goodies if you are hungry. And for a Saturday afternoon it was busy. The coffee was supreme, service delightful. read more

If you're looking for a balanced, well made cup of coffee, Analog is a sure bet. They also have a number of non-coffee options, such as a rich hot chocolate and a decent selection of tea. Analog's pastries and snacks are also worthwhile. Indoor seating is a hot commodity and may be a challenge, similar to 17th Ave's parking situation. On sunny days, Analog's outdoor seating is perfect for getting your daily dose of vitamin D and people watching. read more

Coffee was pretty strong. The selection of pastries looked good, but overpriced. There was good atmosphere and it as cool place to sit and just people watch. I sat outside drinking my coffee w/my e-reader. Wi-fi was a bit spotty at times, but it generally worked. Overall, nice place with rather average coffee. read more

I'm in love with Analog. It's such a quaint coffee shop on 17th, I could spend many hours here enjoying a cup of Joe. They have great drinks and the pastries are pretty good as well. The staff are friendly and I would have to say my favorite part was the the pour-over system they are famous for. I loved watching them make the coffee, it was a really neat experience. Making coffee this way just seems so wonderful, and I'm sure it enhances the flavour and frankly all of you senses as you can really smell the coffee as it drips. I love Analog, I'll definitely be back! read more

Analog Coffee - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Decent coffee, good background music but I hate the attitude! The girl at the register seems like she is dead inside and trying so hard to be cool. (She bleached her hair blonde, shoulder length.) I haven't met a rude Canadian until I went to Analog. read more

Stopped in here for some hot chocolate after a nice walk in the snow. Even with the construction and epic snowfall underway, this joint was busy. I can't blame anyone for wanting to hang out here and enjoy a warm bev, our hot chocolate was yummy and frothy! Though I wish there was more space inside, every inch of what Analog has is utilized well. read more

One of the best Cafes in the city with some of the best staff as well. Bree should get a promotion. Very aesthetically pleasing.

I only had a few hours in Calgary but I made sure to stop by since Fratello coffee was highly recommended by a friend. There was no line when I entered, but also no available seats as they were mainly taken up by people working on their laptops. We ordered a latte as well as an iced mocha to go. The latte was pretty good, but what got me was the iced mocha. Absolutely delicious - it was incredibly smooth with a slight sweetness to it. I almost wanted another one immediately! Both drinks were roughly $4.50 each. It's a little on the pricey side for the size of drink. Their card machine also asked for a tip, but I found their attitude to be subpar that day. As we left, we noticed a line all the way to the door; in fact, we had to squeeze ourselves between the line and the door to get out. The coffee here is great, decor is wonderful, but it's too busy. read more

I went to this location last Saturday to meet with a friend. We specifically chose this place (I had never been) because, on their website, they advertise their 'from scratch' bakery, with croissants, etc, and I was really looking forward to a rare indulgence of a croissant in the morning. I was incredibly disappointed to see their mostly empty, meager display of some sandwiches and pastries, but no croissants. When I got to order, after waiting in a long lineup (I get it, busy location on a Saturday, no biggie) I was told they are discontinuing the croissants so they are no longer making them. To me, the fact that they are still boasting a 'from scratch bakery' on their website, this is false advertising. I ordered a Kouign-amann instead, which I couldn't even eat because it was way too sweet. Suffice it to say I won't be back here - what a travesty! Can I give this poor excuse of a 'bakery' 0 stars?! read more

Any visit to Calgary MUST include a stop at this amazing coffee shop. Take time to sit and enjoy the atmosphere in this lovely, sunny, comfortable location. The latte's are consistently amazing and the treats are truly top notch. Also, the staff is ALWAYS kind and friendly, something unusual for Calgary coffee shops. I would highly recommend this spot. read more

We just got americanos and they were good. I liked Monogram Coffee and Rosso more as far as coffee in Calgary, but this is a fun place in downtown to go for coffee and a sweet treat. read more

Analog Coffee - Cafes Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Great coffee. I can see why this is such a popular place in Calgary! Their location always seems to be bustling no matter what time it is.

Came from Toronto and was recommended this place by multiple locals. I absolutely have to agree. This had the best coffee I've had in a long time. I ordered the flat white, nicely done by the barista. The almond croissant had this almond paste that was went well with my coffee. My only comment would be that I had paid using an AMEX card during at least 2 visits, and when I returned a 3rd time, I was told by another barista that they don't take AMEX. Not being able to take it and refusing to take it is a different thing. I understand merchant fees cost, but at the same time, to say "you don't receive AMEX", when I've been using it multiple times with other baristas was a turn off. Don't get me wrong, multiple places won't take the card, but the conversation that took place was not ideal. read more

I like the coffee here, the bakery is good, the sandwiches suck. The attitude from the some of the staff is great and others are brutal. Calling a name for a drink is simple. At this place They barely bother and when they do they say it quietly - and this place is noisy. When you say it would be helpful if they did, they argue and say they did. It's too bad - they seem to be getting attitudes that weren't there before. read more

Probably my favorite cafe in Calgary. Great selection of coffee, friendly staff, and quick service even in busy hours. Try their pour over using different coffee origins to taste the different notes in their coffee. read more

I'm glad Analog popped up on 17th - it's a great addition to the neighbourhood and one of my favourite places to meet up with friends who work downtown. The concept for Analog is pretty neat - sort of vintage record store. It's bright and open and has bar-style seating along all the windows which is great for people-watching. The service is great - although their to-go drinks aren't as nicely presented as in their own mugs. Be sure to ask for your lattes extra hot - they are delicious but can sometimes cool too quickly. I haven't tried any of their lunch items, but their baked goods are always amazing (my favourite is the hazelnut brownie). Also, I love that it's open a little bit later - 10PM. read more

I'm Australian, and have struggled for good coffee round Canada but this place had great coffee !!!! I Recommend ! read more

I finally got to try the Calgary coffeeshop everyone raves about when I met my business partner here early Saturday morning for a weekend work meeting. We had delicious lattes on their tiny patio chairs and it felt exactly as a coffeeshop should. This place is BUSY so best to grab your goods to go unless you're early like we were. I've tried to visit Analog before as a study spot to catch up on MBA homework, but it's tiny with limited seating -- and no one willing to give up their chair -- so I've frequently passed it over. While the coffee and bakery goods are delish, if you're looking for the same with less mayhem, maybe stop by one of the many P&S locations, including one just off 17th ave down 4th street. Staff is friendly and this spot delivers exactly as it should, I just wish it was bigger! read more

This spot has great hours and delicious baked goods. I wish they had the incentive for repeat customer like most other local coffee shops that have coffee cards/rewards, and if they did I would go more often. Good music here, too. read more
