I ordered the Matcha Lemonade, which had a mixture of lemonade soda and a matcha flavor to it for $7.50. Given the price and the small portion cup, I felt like it was a bit underwhelming at best given the price, and I don't feel like I got my money's worth. However, given the experience, I would reccomend this coffee shop to tourists in the area! Just not great for the price.

Recently visited this place again, several times in fact. My experience this time was different…read more I didn't get the vibe of indifference. It was a nice experience each time I came in. The staff were nice and warm. Offered fresh brewed coffee and even brought it to my table one time. It's easy to ask questions when you know you have a friendly staff in front of you and interaction was pleasant. I ordered a Cinnamon bun and the guy offered to heat it up. Went well with my regular black coffee. On a different instance they even brought me another coffee from a fresh batch when they realized the one I just ordered was from an older one. That was really nice. I just realized it's nice to come here in the mornings as well. The walls are all glass so it lets a lot of ambient light from the outside in. It's refreshing to have sunlight on your face while having breakfast or when reading. I tried the bacon and egg sandwich and I know it was fresh because the egg yoke oozed out when I took a bite. I was pleasantly surprised. The bread tasted and smelled good. The bacon crisp. The veggie fresh and green. There's a lot more pastry options during the day. I posted it here. I love sitting on the full sized sofa when I'm lazy and just want to read a book. The ambient music is just right, not too loud, so friends can have a relaxed conversation without the music drowning their voices. It can be busy during late Saturday mornings so come early if you want to find a table and not planning to take your coffee to go. This is located in the nice Mahogany condos. There's plenty of free street parking. When you step out there's plenty of other shops to explore. They have the Marble Slab Creamery. Of course the Chairman's Steakhouse. There's a high end wine store, a bar, etc. Plenty of other service oriented shops and more. In the summer it's great because the Mahogany Beach Club is next door. Yes there's a beach and sand, in the middle of the neighbourhood. Awesome! A paved running trail is conveniently located around the beach. When the water is frozen I've seen people ice skating and playing hockey on the ice. It's in a really nice area and enjoyable!

My children have been taking music lessons at Cornerstone Music Café for the past 4 years. The…read morequality of instruction exceeds every expectation we held. My children have excelled in their musical pursuits. We have had the pleasure of working with two talented guitar instructors over the years, Kyle Tenove and Linden Conroy. Both have been extremely patient, knowledgeable, kind and clear communicators. They have created a supportive and positive learning experience. My kids are always excited to go to lessons. The lessons are always on time and the instructors have been quite flexible in providing online classes if required. The kids have been exposed to numerous styles and types of music. My son has recently learned finger picking style and jazz, and my daughter has been loving learning new chords and playing her favourite punk songs. They have grown in confidence and ability over the past several years and we could not be happier with the calibre and quality of the instructors, whom are professional working musicians. We love the ambiance of the café, staff are wonderful and welcoming. The food is always great and the cooler is packed full of soups and stews to take home. The treats are to die for. There is a great selection of locally made products as well. Couldn't be happier we found Cornerstone Music. We feel like we are part of a wonderful and supportive community there.

The cafe is located at #139 - 14919 Deer Ridge Dr SE (in a strip mall) with lots of parking in the front. The space is comfortable, spacious and well laid out.     There is an expanded selection of "local vendor market" giftware (perfect for the upcoming holiday season - shop early!) and take-away delicious food items including meals!  All food items (VERY reasonably priced) are gluten free and absolutely delicious (that's a high compliment coming from a non-celiac and a total "foody"). Their award winning hot chocolate is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!   Service by Jen really made the evening extra special,  she's friendly, casual yet professional and has a great sense of humor - we felt like we'd made a new friend!! Check their website for upcoming events: https://www.cornerstonemusic.ca/ NOW, Jory Kinjo and Aaron Young (band 'Kinjo and Young') performed for over 2 hours and took our breath away.  They're local, highly talented musicians who tour the world (Jory Kinjo played 3 tours with the infamous BB King!).  It was a powerhouse performance, they're so engaged with the audience, clearly LOVE performing and blew us away.  I lost count how many standing ovations we gave them,  each one well deserved.  I will track their tours and definitely see them again! (kinjoyoung.com). MAKE A POINT of taking advantage of this jewel cafe in Calgary and book tickets to see the band!

Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious: egg salad sandwich, meat pie of the day (sausage and cheese), and to share, a butterhorn. I had never heard of a butterhorn but when it comes to baked goods, am usually up to trying anything. And I am so glad I did. Best way to describe it is that it is like a cinnamon bun but with vanilla and white sugar that caramelizes with the butter. And no cinnamon. If only we weren't driving through with no way to get back any time soon. I should have bought 6. Or even 12. They were that good.

Chunks of cheesecake over shaved ice, topped with whipped cream and a bit of condensed milk. This was my favorite! We also ordered mango bingsu which was topped with fresh mango, mango puree and whipped cream. I wasn't a fan of the mango puree as I found it a bit too sweet for my liking. If neither of these are too tie liking, they also have matcha, melon, blueberry, strawberry, etc flavors as well. Also, they have taiyaki and a few other menu items. Service is just like a take out place in which you order at the counter but they bring you your order. It does take a few minutes to make so bear that in mind. Tables are clean and orderly. Overall, great place conveniently located inside a strip mall.

I've tasted some of the Strawberry and I say it's one of the best flavor since it reminded me of a Strawberry shortcake. The Strawberry toppings are generous too and just enough sweetness that it's a nice indulgence. The honeydew is also generous but I found it a little hard since it might have been placed in a frozen honeydew fruit bowl . That idea is ingenious but maybe don't store it too long in the freezer prior to serving since it will make the rounded honeydew bits too cold for people with sensitive teeth. Mine isn't as generous on the toppings which I find the least appealing since there's no apt topping to boot it made the flavor a little bit lackluster. Overall tho it's a good experience. I suggest making some more variety of snacks so there's more choices if possible. Ambiance is great too. Comfy and nice touch with the warm and inviting decor and color palette and the people working are always helpful and friendly.
