    This is the margarita pizza! And what a lovely presentation!

    The margarita pizza was fabulous! The base for the pizza is sour dough! We also had a ham and cheese on a croissant and it was very, very good! All fresh and delicious! The chocolate eclair is one of the best ever! The service was good and the staff super friendly! Don't miss this place!

    Ambiance is really good, the interior is very cute & vibey. The staff was friendly but the way they handed the drinks was confusing to customers, someone almost picked up my coffee. The coffee is pretty good, I'd give it a 4.5 My friend had the fresh orange juice and it was pretty watered down

    Turkey and Swiss Panino for $12.00 in 2022.

    This was my first visit to AYCO. We ordered brewed coffees and sandwiches. Mine was a Turkey and Swiss Panino for $12.00. There was very little cheese in it. It was a bit too crunchy for me but it tasted okay. One of my my guests ordered a ham and cheese croissant and she really enjoyed it it was a bargain at $5.00. My other guest had the smoked salmon and she enjoyed that sandwich as well. I really enjoyed the coffee. Not too strong, not too light, it was just right. The service was quite pleasant. The choices of sandwiches are limited but pastries are plentiful. If you are looking for a muffin or Danish you'll have lots to choose from. There's are lots of tables but most are designed for one or two people. For three or more people there are three or four tables. There's a large raised patio in the front of the café that is well separated from the sidewalk so it would be really nice in the summer. There are two unisex washrooms that were very nice, definitely above standard. I would prefer more selections of sandwiches myself but perhaps it was just timing because we were here at 10:00 am so it's after breakfast but too early for lunch. There were some empty spots under the counter and she said there are more coming. That's probably a good thing because it means that sandwiches are made in small quantities so that they are fresh when served. If you are looking for a place for coffee, lunch or even to catch up on some work on your laptop, you'll probably enjoy AYCO on Jasper Ave downtown.

    Entrance is a little tricky to find if you don't have Google maps. Parking is a nightmare and costs a small fortune. Contruction in the area prevented me from being able to park right in front of the cafe. Lots of selection fora Thursday at 2PM. Cafe was 25% full. Lots of very comfortable tables with cute decor great for a coffee date and great place to hang out. Cashier was super friendly and did not make me feel rushed ordering or while I ate. 2 single-use gender neutral bathrooms in the back. I tried the Mango Creme Puff based on the cashiers recommendation. I was torn between that and the Mango Donut and Cruffin. Mango Creme Puff was not as good as I hoped. The choux (dough) was perfect, great flavor, great texture. The filling was a little gritty for my liking. There was a Lot of filling - very generous. 5/10. Overall my dessert choice wasn't great, but the atmosphere and other food choices are really appealing and I think I would come back if I am ever in the area.

    Great selection of pastries including croissants, breakfast sandwiches, donuts, frontis, cinnamon rolls, empanadas and danishes. Service on a weekday mid morning was from one lone server who took orders and prepared the drinks/foods so it was a touch slow albeit friendly. Three different seating areas throughout the small cafe. They also do lots of catering from what I saw people come in for. Had an oat milk London Fog which was nothing particularly special. Take note the 15 cent bag charge includes the little paper bag any pastries go into so unless you want it wrapped in napkins perhaps consider bringing your own container.

    Wow, who knew this place was so large inside? This whole place is delightful, from the decor that ranges from white bright to darker as you make your way to the back, with the upper back seating area having honestly a bit of the Peppermill lounge ambiance. I am not kidding! Visited with friends and ordered a flat white. Sometimes I wish these were served a little hotter, especially in a glass cup which loses heat quickly, and this applied here, but I managed to drink most of it while it was at least warm. I didn't know that the place serves a full patisserie selection, so I ate beforehand, but on my next visit will arrive hungry. There was a mix of traditional pastries, like croissants and pain chocolat, along with trendy "cruffins" (which I still found enticing because they included selections with custard and pastry cream) and the variations on the croissant that seem very popular now -- flat croissants and the cubic ones caught my eye. My friend bought me a flat croissant to take home and I shared it with my son. it was kind of like a pastry cookie with toppings. Would always prefer a regular croissant, I think, but I can never really complain about pastry cream, puff pastry, whipped cream, or chocolate. Service was a real highlight, with the drinks being brought to our table after ordering/paying, and then cleared away after use. We did not feel rushed along. A very hospitable experience, and all three of us will be returning.

    Very Instagram-worthy cafe that opened downtown! Lots of seating inside and a wide variety of bakery items. I tried their Feta & Spinach croissant and their salted caramel cruffin. The croissant was warmed up which was nice and tasted decent. The cruffin had a croissant texture on the outside and it was filled with cream. It was a bit too creamy for me but it was not bad. It definitely a cute cafe to stop by if you're in the area!

    A must visit cafe in YEG. they have a nice variety ranging from different baked goods to drinks and even lunch items! Definitely a cute place to visit as well! * Iced hot chocolate ~ this is delicious, the iced chocolate was creamy, and good. The whipped cream complimented the chocolate well. 9/10. * Iced chai latte ~ nice flavour with lots of Cinnamon, it's creamy, and fragrant. Not too sweet and overall good pairing with the sweet donuts. 8/10. * Smoked salmon croissant sandwich ~ this was my favourite item. It was flakey and savoury with some sweetness. The smoked salmon was delicious with the spinach and dill cream cheese filling and the sweet and savoury croissant was such a good combination. 9.5/10. * Suprem Matcha strawberry croissant ~ this was good. I liked the matcha cream and strawberry flavouring. It was a good and I liked the croissant donut it was nice and buttery 8.5/10 * Suprem hazelnut croissant~ the chocolate hazelnut was so good. The chocolate on top was sweet and good with a nice crunch. I liked the pastry itself you can really taste the buttery texture 7.5/10 * Strawberry filled donut ~ definitely a sweet tooth donut. The cream was super sweet and thick, reminds of of a sweet strawberry candy. The donut was good the cream just a bit sweeter than expected. 5/10. * Pistachio cruffin ~ this was super delicious that yummy cream was stuffed well in the pastry and it was buttery, sweet and creamy! 8.5/10.

There was a large cake, cake slices, macarons in 2 different flavours, 2 different cream puffs, and I believe a few other items. They also advertised they have bubble tea, halo halo, and various pops. Behind the counter, there were white steamed buns and the gentleman working there told us there was pork inside. There were a few trays of baked breads and also a warmed with chicken empanadas. After lunch we went back to pick up a few things. I got 2 empanadas ($1.99 each) and 2 cream puffs ($2.25 each). My friend had one of the cakes before and said it was sweet so I decided not to try any as I don't like overly sweet desserts. Later that day, I had the cream puff and it was filled with lots of fluffy cream. The chicken empanada filling reminded me of what I use when I make chicken pot pie without the liquid. For $2, there was a decent amount of chicken but it was sweet and I prefer more savoury. I heated it in the toaster oven so the outside shell would be crispy and it was flaky and warm inside. If I'm in the area, I would go back and see what else they had. It's great to support a local business and the service was friendly.

I started the meal with the Don Vito cocktail, a spirit forward sweet concoction of Cognac, Bourbon and Limoncello. Immediately felt like it set the perfect tone for dinner. The tasting menu started with four appetizers, the Arancini, Goat Ricotta Crostini, Insalata Siciliana and the Culatello. My favorite was the arancini as it was packed full of melty cheese with so much flavor. The culatello was a crowd favorite and the crostini was a great palate cleanser. For secondi we had the Truffle Gnudi and Paccheri. For people who like meaty flavors go with the paccheri, but I liked the light cheese and truffle of the gnudi. By the time the Pollo Al Mattone came around, I could only manage a mouthful of the succulent brick chicken and the fresh cabbage salad as I was so full and would need to be rolled out of the restaurant. We ended with the Chocolate Budino, which was dark, creamy and delicious. A great tasting menu at a great price, especially compared to Toronto prices!

The appetizer with the cheese on toast was so much more flavorful than cheese on toast should be. Our companions had a pasta dish with sausage and it was amazing. If I lived in the area this would be a favorite to return to often. I like that the bartender just works on drinks for servers and there aren't patrons directly ordering drinks from him to slow the service.
