    My favourite cookie place. Consistent quality no matter which location you go to - this one included! Ordered a peanut butter and 2 double trouble chocolate cookies for the airplane ride. However we didn't end up eating them until the next day and they were just as good despite being in the paper bag for over 24 hours! They have a loyalty stamp card so be sure to start one if you don't have it already!

    We passed a CBG flying in so I was craving some and had to stop. The cookies are thick so they all looked scrumptious. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/cookies-by-george-nisku?select=wA2OH158pjwqaISSgHCNog#wA2OH158pjwqaISSgHCNog http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/cookies-by-george-nisku?select=wA2OH158pjwqaISSgHCNog#4cXTSSFCBCLd6jqShXB0OA HALF DOZEN: (It's cheaper) PEANUT BUTTER: This was chewy and delicious. CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER: Found it a bit sweet but was good nonetheless. MILK CHOCOLATE: I needed milk badly after eating this. PEACHES 'N' CREAM: Light and creamy. This was quite good. All the cookies here were pretty good, probably one of the better chain-cookie places I've tasted. Nice and thick, chewy and the flavors were really great.

    The cookies weren't too expensive you can buy either a half or a full dozen for a better deal..

    Dark Kiss Coffee is a to-go drive-up coffee spot in Leduc. They run out of a trailer that is in the…read moresame parking lot of the Leduc Chamber of Commerce on the north end of Leduc. They've been here for a few years and I've been here a lot. Dark Kiss has great coffee drinks like lattes and wide variety of syrups to try (all sugar free so great if you're diabetic). There's also tea drinks on the menu, smoothies, and I think milkshakes too. I'm lactose intolerant so I usually get a latte with oat milk. They have also started roasting their own coffee, which you can also buy. If you want a sweet treat temhey usually have a variety of baked goods from local bakers. They have Calmar donuts a few times a week (those will sell out quickly). And their bagels are from The Bagel Bar. Today I got one of their seasonal drinks "A Christmas Story Macchiato" and a dill bagel, both were delicious. Even if you don't opt for a baked treat with your coffee they always give you a little biscoff cookie. Staff is always really friendly and able to give recommendations if you don't know what to order. I've never been disappointed here. Lines can sometimes get long but it takes time to get a drink. The only downside to Dark Kiss is that they're only open until 3pm and they are a drive- up place. If Dark Kiss had an actual space to sit down as enjoy a drink that would be amazing. Maybe one day, but for now I'm happy to take my coffee (and hopefully a Calmar donut) to go.

    Figured it was time to update my review since Phat Tony's has moved…read more Their new space is much bigger then the previous location, with lots more tables than before, and even some couches. They've also extended their hours a bit so they're open earlier and little later than before, but Phat Tony's is still a breakfast/lunch place. They're not open for dinner. I haven't tried any of the breakfast sandwiches, but I've come here for lunch a couple of times. You can dine in or take your sandwich to do. Their sandwiches are freshly made and massive. They come with a dill pickle wedge, and side (garden salad or coleslaw or potato salad). I always opt for the potato salad. I generally don't like restaurant potato salads (prefer homemade) but I love the potato salad at Phat Tony's. They also usually have a few soups on hand if you want something warm. And there are salads and wraps too. They also usually have some baked goods and squares, but the portions are so large I never have room for dessert. If you leave Phat Tony's hungry you've done it wrong. If you're looking for a sandwich in Leduc definitely give Phat Tony's a go. I'll be back again.

    Lots of parking in the communal parking lot. Easy to find, but make sure to use the mall entrance…read more Didn't have more than a 5 minutes wait to order take-out in person at 11:15AM and order was ready in under 7 minutes. Got take out twice. Donair Grilled cheese: 12/10 delicious. Will be getting again! Great price too. Potato salad it comes with is 10/10 too. Potato soup: 12/10 best I've had in a very long time! Phat Tony's Ultimate Sandwich: 9/10, just not as good as the Donair sandwich. Chicken Noodle soup: 4/10. Way too may vegetables and not enough noodles for my liking.

    Rise Coffee is a small locally run coffeeshop located in Nisku inside the Leduc County Business and…read moreEntrepreneur Centre. This is also the location of Chartier's Mother's Bakery so it may smell like fresh baked bread when you get inside. That's a separate business though. Rise Coffee has a small coffee menu, but they've got a few standard coffee and tea drinks, and some some seasonal offerings. They do sometimes have pastries, but you'd need to get there early in the day because they'll sell out. Why I love Rise Coffee is because of what it supports. It was started by the Riseup Society, a charity (CRA registered) in Leduc that offers support for those experiencing domestic violence. And while I wish we lived in a world where this wasn't needed that's not the case. And if I can support Riseup, which I'm sure has helped many people, by purchasing a latte then I'm happy to do so. All of the proceeds from Rise Coffee goes back to Riseup Society. And you can book their coffee cart for special events including weddings. Rise Coffee is in a strange location, being in the middle of an industrial park. There isn't a big sign on the building saying Rise Coffee (least not from my last visit), but if you see two big red Muskoka chairs outside you're at the right place. Rise Coffee occupies just a small space in this building, which I'm sure is used for conferences and events. You can take your drink to go but there is lots of space to stay and enjoy your drink too. Rise Coffee is a nice place to stop and get a coffee and to support a great organization. If you're passing by Nisku between 8am and 4pm during the week then take a detour and stop in at Rise Coffee.

    Stopped in after the airport for a coffee and some sourdough baked treats from Mother (in the same…read morebuilding). Fantastic atmosphere! Lovely view, tasty coffee, friendly staff, and proceeds going to a great cause? Literally can't imagine a better spot. Stop by if you are in the area, it is sooo worth it!

    Leduc Coffee Shop - The almost famous orange roll. $3.50 in 2024.

    I'm always up for a little journey out of town in the name of food and that's precisely what my…read morerecent visit to the city of Leduc was all about. Fifteen minutes (or so) south of the city makes Leduc feel more like a suburb and very much a part of the greater Edmonton area. It didn't take me much convincing to jump in the car when I heard that a little cafe was home to the Best Dessert 2024 as named by EDify Magazine. What delicious secrets were being kept in Leduc and how could I taste them?? Step one is to drive yourself to Leduc, which I did on a Saturday morning. While nearby, I haven't spent a whole lot of time in Leduc and found myself pleasantly surprised when the navigation took me to a quaint and cute small-town-style main street area. I really don't think that I'd ever been there before. Sweet little independent shops lined both sides of the street, lending to an idyllic pedestrian experience. Shopping areas like these always feel good to stroll through. Leduc Coffee Shop is located within two other stores; Magpies Collection and Playing For Keeps Toys. So don't get confused when you enter into a retail space; home decor and gifts on the left and children's toys on the right. Head to the back of the store and keep going until you find yourself surrounded by bistro tables and can smell the coffee. The space is cozy and cafe-like with chocolate-coloured walls and pieces of local art as decoration. I noted that each table was adorned with a vase of fresh flowers - a lovely touch. I also noticed a very adorable China cabinet filled with antique cups and saucers. The idea is that you can choose your own teacup to use, select your tea of choice, and then sit down to enjoy! What a beautiful idea that only adds to the experience! I was surprised by how large the menu is - the whole thing is posted right on the wall and it's huge both in physical size and in terms of content. In the end, the offerings include; drinks, eats, and sweets n treats. If you're looking for visual guidance most of the food items are on display in the glass case, which is helpful. I knew that I wanted to order a coffee-based beverage - it is a coffee shop after all - and I was delighted to find a special "Winter Drinks" menu. I am someone who loves a seasonal beverage, to the point of ordering off of these types of menus almost exclusively. I just like trying new things and enjoying flavours that compliment the season. This menu included six different choices, each sounding perfectly appropriate for the winter. The Gingerbread Spiced Mocha (Espresso, white chocolate, topped with whip cream & cinnamon) stood out to me, which I ordered in the small size. The girl at the counter was pleasant and got to work on preparing our drinks and eats. The drink looked like everything that I wanted it to be (AKA more like dessert than coffee) but unfortunately the flavour didn't really hit the mark for me. It mostly just tasted like a mediocre, watered down cup of coffee and didn't deliver on all of the gingerbread and spice and mocha that was promised. It just seemed like this coffee was supposed to have a lot of exciting stuff going on and I felt disappointed as I sipped it. The food menu includes a whole array of sandwiches that look really appetizing - many on croissants or bagels. And each sandwich is served with a side of corn chips which is something that I can totally get behind! I would recommend taking a look in the case and choosing whatever appears the most delicious on that particular day. However, I was visiting for one item and one item only: the Orange Bun ($3.50). This is the current best dessert in the Edmonton area and I couldn't wait to try it. These golden twirly rounds are baked in-house from scratch using real butter. The orange buns are served warm and seem to be a member of the cinnamon roll family. I know that this isn't a popular opinion but I'm not much of a cinnamon roll fan (unless we're talking about the ones at Sugarbowl, in which case I love them). This, however, is not a cinnamon roll. The homemade dough is hand-stretched every morning and the freshness is evident in every bite. There's a gooey mix of orange zest and coconut within every warm layer, bringing a sweet and unique flavour all its own. I loved this comforting bun, like something that a grandma would make. The flavour of the dough itself was almost the best part because it wasn't too sweet and it held the orange and coconut together so well. An absolute delight! I totally understand why this orange bun is on the foodie radar. It's wonderful that a little cafe like this, off the beaten path, is getting some notice. The food is the highlight at Leduc Coffee Shop but it would be nice if the coffee beverages were up to the same level. Delivering every bit the cozy cafe experience, this is the type of space that you'll be happy to spend some time in.

    I came here because their orange rolls were featured in Edify Magazine. I ordered them for each of…read moremy guests. They loved the orange rolls. The rolls are like cinnamon buns but with orange instead of cinnamon. For lunch two of us ordered the Chicken Chipotle Melt. They were $9.99 each which is very reasonable. They were good, but not special. We noticed a steady stream of people coming in and ordering and looking for a table so this could be the most popular coffee house in Leduc. Coffee is self serve and includes refills. The cafe is located in the back of another business which I think is a gift shop. There's usually lots of steet parking available and, of course, being Leduc the parking is free.
