    Big breakfast
    Jessica B.

    We have found that the service at this Cora's if fine. We are usually seated right away and our orders are taken pretty quick as well. Sometimes there is a long wait, but then again, we're used to it as there is almost always a line up. Our last visit we ordered savoury crepe (with eggs, bacon, and sausage) and a usually big breakfast (toast, hash, bacon, sausage, eggs - totally don't remember the names of both dishes, so please refer to the pictures). Everything tastes fine, nothing really crazy amazing, but that's normal with all Cora's/chain breakfast restaurants. There were a couple of visits that we had where our server forgot to refill our coffees and we had to ask another server to help us out. So, overall this Cora's isn't too bad, but will probably take the extra time to drive to another breakfast restaurant that has better food and better service.

    My boyfriend and I went to Cora for breakfast last weekend. It was our first having Cora breakfast in Calgary. We had Cora in Vancouver and other cities before. This time We've been to the location nearby our place on 130 Ave SE, Calgary. Cora is a Canadian chain of casual restaurants serving breakfast and lunch. The first Cora was opened in Quebec, and now just Cora elsewhere in Canada. There are more than 50 franchises in Quebec and 130 across Canada. Environment: We arrived the restaurant around 9 am. The restaurant was very busy. There were lots of people in the restaurant. Luckily, we didnt wait for too long to get a table. Inside the restaurant was nice and clean. All the decorations on the wall are very simple and cute looking. Server: After we sat down, our table server brought the menu to us and began to take an order for the drink. Both of us had Coffee. After took an order, the server brought our drink to the table very fast. Our server was nice and friendly. Food: After discussed few minutes about the menu, we decided to order Tomatoes, bacon and green onions and Julie the Girlfriend for breakfast. Tomatoes, bacon and green onions was made by Poached eggs on an English muffin covered with hollandaise sauce served with roasted potatoes and fresh fruit. Available with one, two or three poached eggs! Julie the Girlfriend included 2 eggs, bacon and roasted potatoes served with a tasty chocolate brioche dipped in French toast batter and garnished with bananas, English cream Cora style and strawberry sauce. All the food came out from kitchen fast. They were well cooked and fresh. Most importantly, all the food were very healthy. Prices: The prices of the food were a little bit of expensive. But, I strongly believe that it's worth the prices since they were all in super large portion, and healthier for people. In summary, we had a great experience in Cora.

    Cora's fruit displays always make me smile..... :) I first discovered "Chez Cora" in Montreal on a business trip, back in 1998. I remember at that time thinking that the concept was so unique, that all I needed was $250,000 unencumbered cash, to bring this business to Calgary. Yes... sadly.... I looked into it. But, I was a bit short in dough, and further, I am not a restauranteur. I eat in restaurants. That's what I do. I was delighted when Cora's made it to Calgary. I wouldn't say I am regular there by any stretch, but it is the breakfast place I choose when I am looking for a plate with more fruit, and less bacon. :) You can get the bacon there too, but you will be challenged to find that much fruit anywhere else. The "breakfast" food itself is comparable to any other family restaurant. A poached egg tastes like a poached egg, no matter where I go. However, the large fruit portions in a lovely display are what keep me going back there. Another consideration on whether I choose Cora over any other place is how I am "feeling". There are a lot of kids in this family restaurant, so be advised of that. This may not be your first choice on Saturday morning, after a wicked Friday. On most days for me, it is just what the doctor ordered!

    Bagle and lox - only lox on half the bagle, other half is tomato
    L R.

    Great brunch selection! The bagle and lox only has lox on half the bagle, the other half is tomato, and adding some lox for the other half of your bagle costs $7! Way overpriced for that, and too much extra fruit instead of enough lox. Delicious Cherries pancakes was delicious, and so was the April 89 fruit stuffed crepes with custard and nutella. Every dish comes with more fresh fruit than anyone could finish, not always ripe though.

    The customer service was pretty good, the waiters were nice and everything. I ate the Gigi Omelette, and maybe I'm just not a fan of goat cheese, but it had a very very strong taste, and I don't really like that. However, it may just be personal preference. The oranges I had wth the omelette was also bitter...? I'm not sure why it's bitter, but that was not good for me. Other than that, the atmosphere was great! The bread was served in a basket, which i was shocked at first, but I find that super cool.

    I already ordered so I was left with this to photograph.  It all looks great nonetheless!

    The decor is a little whack but the service and the food are absolutely outstanding! I had the breakfast poutine and it was unbelievably delish. I mean if I could go back into the kitchen with skid-steer I'd load up on that breakfast poutine and swim in it while eating. A must eat, the breakfast poutine includes roasted potatoes, cheese curds, sausage bits, bacon, sautéed roast peppers, an egg (I ordered a poached egg medium) all smothered in a delightful hollandaise sauce. Keep in mind it's a dish that probably boasts a days worth of calories. Whatevs. It's freaking great. Anyway, plan your next breakfast at Cora's. Seriously do it. But get there early. This place is no secret. It's that good.

    If you are celiac the menu is pathetic and unappetizing - you also can't get greens for breakfast - not very accommodating

    What I love about this place is how inclusive it is while being so flavor forward…read more Our group had vegetarians, vegans, pescatarians, folks with walnut allergy and dairy intolerance and we all found plenty of options to pick from and try the range. Vegan breakfast options that too savory are hard to come by. You're limited to soy or coconut yogurt or just potatoes but this place had buddha bowl, tofu bowl, ramen, salads. So many options. Additionally they can make modifications to accomodate any requirements. We had our coffees made with soy milk and sugar free syrup. Everything is plated so beautifully. Super fast and friendly service. You must reserve ahead online a day before atleast before you go to ensure they confirm a spot because the seating is limited. In addition to kitchen items they also have a small bakery shelf for banana breads or anything else. 10/10 would recommend.

We were shocked to find another couple sitting at our reserved table--frankly, I hadn't anticipated it would be a shared table for eight in the first place. To make matters worse, we were rushed to order and pay the bill. After that couple left, another pair were seated at our six-person table without any explanation. Our dishes arrived in two separate waves with a 10-minute gap. They also automatically added an 18% tip for parties of more than five people, which I expect at least we should have a private table. When I expressed my dissatisfaction to the server, the owner came out and became confrontational and aggressive. He raised his voice, saying I could "tell him what I am not satisfied with." Then he offered a refund, which I immediately declined, and afterward snatched a package of coffee from the counter and offered it as compensation. I refused again--it felt more like an insult than a genuine apology. After we posted our reviews, the owner privately messaged my friend, asking us to remove them and citing the "small Chinese community" as a reason we should support each other. That's incredibly manipulative. Using community guilt to pressure customers into deleting honest feedback is inappropriate and only reinforces our negative experience. I will not be returning.

By the time it arrived, everything was stone cold. The cheese was literally hard from melting and then going cold, the potatoes were undercooked and raw, and the entire meal was completely inedible. Spending $35 on food that went straight in the garbage is beyond frustrating, it's infuriating. And the $5 "seasonal fruit bowl" looked like someone's picked-over leftovers. A couple random pieces tossed in a container and sent out like that's acceptable? It's honestly disgusting and shows a complete lack of quality control. At this point, I would've been better off ordering McDonald's for a third of the price, because at least it would've shown up hot and edible. This is careless, overpriced, and completely unacceptable. 1STAR. Complete fail.
