    Holiday drink and red velvet cookie
    Amanda T.

    Very good vibes. The lady making our drinks was so sweet. The holiday drink was good nothing spectacular though. The red velvet cookie was unreal. The marshmallow gooeyness perfectly meshed with the red velvet and chocolate chips. The consistency of the cookie was the perfect amount of chewiness.

    The cookie was good. The hot chocolate was not good. Very sub par. I had moderate expectations and yet was far from met. It was so underwhelming for its price ($5.50) I'd go back for the cookie. Never again for the hot chocolate it tasted almost like water with a hint of chocolate. Although, it did look pretty as you can see in the photo. Service was great, couldn't ask for more. Ambiance was good, nothing too great. I was seated in a not so comfy chair but they had couches and lounge areas that I think would've been a better option. Overall 4/5 because everything was ok, conveniently placed and relatively well priced. The hot chocolate just sucked so bad.

    Flight of Lattes
    Sarah S.

    The staff was friendly but was super busy. It took 45 minutes for 1 flight of lattes, a blueberry muffin, and a cinnamon twist that was premade. Drinks were hot and good, definitely on the sweet side as they were dessert lattes, which was perfect. The food was okay, nothing mind-blowing. They have no highchairs or booster seats for children, which wasn't ideal.

    I can't say enough AMAZING THINGS ABOUT THIS LOCATION! The owner welcomed us with a smile and warm greeting. We shared we had made a reservation and the table was ready for us. We were visiting from Nashville and we asked questions and shared stories. We ordered coffee, pastries and a sandwich and when I say it was delicious, it's an understatement. Fresh hot lattes in my Coffee Flight with homemade Honey Coconut syrup--- out of this world! We had ZERO positive experiences in Calgary and THIS was the highlight of our visit! The owner even brought us a fresh Birthday Cake cookie to sample!! Calgary, LISTEN Up! If you're not going here EVERY DAY! You are missing out on something special! Thank you so much!! It meant more than you know!

    This cafe is one of the cutest ones I've went to so far on the trip in YYC. They have a nice variety of vegan and non vegan drinks and foods! Not to mention all of their baked goods, and syrups are all made in house at one of their bakeries right down the road! Definitely hope they expand to more places! * Werthers original latte (hot/cold). This was super delicious, all the ingredients are homemade, and the whipped cream is not store bought. Super creamy and sweet. Paired perfectly with that dolce drizzle and sweet coffee drink. This drink is on the sweeter side but perfect for a sweet tooth like me. 9/10. * Ferrero rocher latte (hot/cold) ~ this is made as a deconstructed Ferrero rocher, their housemate Nutella chocolate blend is whipped together with some wafer crackers topped with Nutella based whipped cream. 10/10. * Vegan orange creamsicle refresher~ super refreshing it's so good and taste exactly like an orange creamsicle. The coconut milk mixed with orange juice and their special vanilla syrup is the perfect combination of a creamsicle! Super good summery drink choices. 9/10. * Maple bourbon latte (hot/cold) ~ 2.5 Oz bourbon and it's actually delicious. They have 1.5oz in the drink and 1oz in the whipped cream. It has a good sweetness to it, and the coffee taste helps balance out the liquor and sweetness taste. Alcoholic coffee is a new concept you gotta check out! 10/10. * Cappuccino eclair ~ caramel is super sweet but when you eat it with the cappuccino cream it evens it out and blends it nicely. Good contrast of sweet and coffee taste. Super soft donut and made in their own bakery. 7/10.

    Hi it chocolate flights.

    I just savored the hot chocolate flights - utterly amazing.Crafted like a work of art, the heavenly taste completes the experience.

    First of all i ordered a bourbon maple drink and it tasted sooo sweet. I also ordered a "Orange creamsicle refresher" for my sister and it tasted like watered down orange juice. It's so overpriced, i paid $25 for 2 drinks and the wait time is soo long. Other than that i like the planty rustic vibe

    I have gone here a few times years apart since visiting and I have always enjoyed this cafe. I have…read moregotten a matcha here in the past that was okay, but their fall drinks currently look so good. This time around I tried something they offer by reservation called afternoon tea for $40. We each got to pick a tea for our tea pot and had about 8 options. The tea itself wasn't anything special. We tried the chai and the alforno blend which both didn't taste very strong. The afternoon tea deal also came with a snack tower, the bottom consisting of savory sandwich bites, and the top two levels with pastries and sweets. The things that stood out to me were the lemon meringue, fruit tart, and the carrot cake (the cream cheese frosting was really tasty). Overall, this was a super cute and fun thing to try. I'd definitely recommend it if you want to try little bites of various things they carry.

One for now and a ham and brie sandwich for later. Everything was so delicious and fresh. I had the brisket bowl with scrambled eggs. So amazing. I want to replicate this at home but fear it will take some work. The gremalata was superior. The cronut was so light and almost melted in your mouth. The raspberry filled coconut cookie was chewy and light. The breakfast with sausage eggs and potatoes and toast was enough for two. We couldn't begin to eat it all and took some away for later. Love this place. Wish we had one. We received multiple recommendations to try this from locals as well. Lots of seating. Craft coffees. Bakery and savory and food for all hours. This is the spot for you!!

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.

I was expecting just a decent meal but was pleasantly surprised. First off, the service was top notch. Rafaelle (spelling?) made sure our water was topped off at all times and checked up on us in perfect intervals. He really made our experience great. The food and beers were great as well. I got the papardelle bourguignon and we split the house kettle chips. Both were very tasty. The bourguignon was cooked perfectly and the portion was just right; not too heavy and not too light. I want to come back and try the poke bowl next time. The atmosphere there is also very nice. It was a great location for us to discuss business and enjoy our food. Thank you for the great experience! I will definitely be back.

The scone was a big and I could only eat half of them, but it was good. I tried Tuna Poke Bowl for dinner. The tuna was seasoned, and the rice underneath was just the right amount, but it was quite voluminous. I tried Chicken Tikka Masala for dinner the next day. This brings salad to basmati rice and naan to chicken tikka masala. Chicken tikka masala and naan were delicious, but the salad was a little watery. There was a piano performance on Friday night. It's a nice place with a cozy atmosphere even by myself. The server was bright and friendly. I would like to stop by again if I get the chance.
