So if you're looking for a 8am coffee, you will need to bring your own. This morning I was the first customer and was greeted by a friendly young man who made the perfect iced matcha latte! I will definitely be ordering this again! Beverages here come in one size (or at least I think they do). Their syrups are 183 and you can opt for sugar free even as their matcha powder is pure and unsweetened and then they add syrup! See you soon! Oh and remember to register your license plate for feee parking!

Easy to find via Google Maps. Not on a main road. Parking is interesting as it's not very close to…read morethe front door. Would be difficult if you had trouble walking but they do have a ramp to get to the front door. Could drop your passenger off at the front and then park too. Fairly busy for a Sunday at 1:30PM. We took our latte and desserts to go. Snack cake and mini cakes looked Amazing. We tried the cheddar chive scone. 9/10. So moist and fluffy and perfectly cooked, just wish it was more flavorful. Banoffee tart - 9/10 tastes like a banana cream pie! Needed more toffee/caramel layer. Crust was hard to cut but tasted fine. Mini egg cheesecake - 7/10, personally not a fan of Graham crumb and this one was definitely not an exception. And the cheesecake was just fine but not wow. Overall better than I expected and would come back to sit and have coffee on a date or grab a snack cake for a special occasion!

The first time we went it was Christmas time and there was an enormous real Christmas tree set up and adorable Christmas treats and cookie boxes for purchase. Everything is made on site. We ordered coffee, hot chocolate, gingerbread and the kids got milk and cookies. The cookies were baked while we had our drinks and came out hot and fresh, ready to dunk. The adults even wished they had ordered some for themselves. Before we left we got a special surprise, Santa Claus! This place offers special baking classes, custom made cakes and goodies as well as holiday themed treat boxes such as valentines and Easter cookie kits. Book a private party, or even pop in for free movie nights! It is a cozy, adorable place and the owners are very friendly, definitely recommend!

Staff is always friendly and nice and they definitely the big part of the great experience! I love their products and almost for every special occasion, we get something from them.

I bought a rhubarb galette and chai latte - the galette was described as having "flaky pastry" but…read moreit was more like a short crust pastry, not much filling either. The chai latte was pee warm and nothing but sugar syrup. Pitiful.

Needed some pastries ASAP without venturing too far away from work, so Google led me to this little…read morebakery in the sketchy part of Chinatown/downtown. It's a cute little space once you get inside. The display case is packed full of a large variety of goods. They have a lot of their pastries frozen "in the back" if you can't eat/serve it within the next day or two. I bought a bunch of eclairs for Christmas dinner. They're pretty large eclairs, colorful and generously filled with cream. I bought a box of tarts for a friend; she said the lemon and key lime tarts were a hit at her dinner table. Price-wise, I find it on the upper end of average. Excellent service. The person serving me was more than happy to answer all my questions about how long each item would last in the fridge. (and, if you're curious, I had an eclair in a container for a few days and it was still fine when I ate it) It was pretty quiet inside. Given the location, I'm not sure how much foot location they get. Free parking out back, but be careful of all the homeless folk milling around. I definitely did not feel very safe walking around from the parking lot in back to the entrace of the bakery on the main street in broad daylight.

I ordered the Ferrero inspired cake for a birthday, it looked absolute amazing but it was a bit too sweet for my liking. The lemon tart had a meringue topping and tasted ok. They macarons were also a bit lacking as well. Overall, I was a bit disappointed. The store itself is nicely decorated, nice pastel colors and lots of beautiful display cases. The service is good as well.

So I took home an assortment of pastries which included Mini rose green tea macron, mini mont blanc, strawberry honey lime panna cotta, cherry pistachio vanilla cake, matcha madeline, sugar cookie, and strawberry, matcha and vanilla macrons. I am not a huge sweet fan so this was a stretch for me, but I really enjoyed it. Everything was tasty and not super sweet except for the sugar cookie which was expected. It was really pretty looking and really pretty tasting. I can't say anything about the ambiance because I did not dine in. Same with the service. In general I would definitely try more things on the menu. I liked everything but the standout was the panna cotta and the match madaline.

Reinette café and pâtisserie is one of my favourite places to go for coffee!!…read moreReinette is maybe more on the fancier side, but the coffee I had there is definitely high quality and delicious. I also had some of their macarons, which were very tasty. Service is always great there, friendly. The ambiance is great there, a great place to relax with food and a drink!! Coffee can be bought there to take home. Other deserts are sold there, along with sandwiches, tea and coffee!!

And believe me I was not disappointed. The flavours are SO good and the presentation is worth it. These little filled cookies are not just for popping in your mouth but for savouring. Depending on where you live in Edmonton it is a bit of a drive to go get theM ( but really what else are we doing these days?) They do offer free delivery on larger orders. Once you are at the warehouse there's lots of free parking so no worries about that. Plus they seem to always be changing the monthly flavour- so there's always the opportunity to try something new!

Do you like macarons? Then Oh. My. Goodness. This place is for you! It's only open limited hours -…read moreat time of writing, noon to 5pm on Thursday through Sundays - so it's a little hard to get to if you don't live near the area. However, it's so worth it. The selection of flavours is wide and eclectic, somewhat korean inspired I think? Plenty of more traditional flavours too, but my absolute favourite so far is the Taro macaron. Absolutely mouth-watering. The macarons come individually wrapped so they stay fresh, and are also notable in that they have about triple the normal filling that a regular macaron would have. At about 240 calories each you'll want to save these as an occasional treat, but what a treat it is!

Oh goodness, it is a whole store by Duchess filled with the most amazing, well like the name says: Provisions! There are cookie, cake and pie making equipment. A How-To kit for duplicating their famous macaroons. All the gadgets one would need to bake a masterpiece are in this delicious little side venture. They even have a wall stocked with jams, honeys, caramels, chocolates, nuts, salts, sugars and other high end, super must have ingredients to wow your taste buds (and show off to your dinner guests!) I bought a delightful crystallized honey as well as a jar of salted caramel that is so amazing it could be drizzled on a dust bunny and make it taste divine! I also added to my insane cookie-cutter collection, which I hide from my other half so he doesn't think I'm Kitchen Cuckoo! Oh, wait... I think he's on to me ;) This is definitely a must visit store if you are a culinary wizard, or just like to wing-it! It is a go-to destination to pick up that perfect hostess gift or for your super foodie friend. And even a $4 jar of something, in its beautiful package, will make anyone feel like a Duke or a Duchess!

As I entered this store, at their new location, the first thing that caught my eye were their displays. They are like little pieces of art telling stories about the items they carry. They have a kids section inspiring fun ideas on how to engage kids in the kitchen. There is a wide selection of flours, sugars and other baking gems (some organic and some not). They carry cookware, bakeware, bread making products, books, teas, chocolates, extracts and compounds, preserves, canning supplies, mixers, cake stands, serveware, kitchen linens, aprons and so much more. With Christmas approaching this is an excellent place to find gifts. And if you're hungry, Café Linnea is definitely worth a try next door.
