Lovely coffee, beautiful venue with a lovely outdoor area, well priced, and the breakfast was delicious, staff were really helpful, kind and knew what they were talking about, well worth popping in for brunch, lunch or breakfast! Very happy read more

I visited Caffe Rosso for the first time last month. I was eager to try it because I heard such great things about the place. I'll admit, I wasn't wowed by the place. It looked like every other coffee shop in Calgary with it's own little red flair. Of course, I ordered my standard soy latte and also decided to get the breakfast wrap. The soy latte itself wasn't anything spectacular, but the breakfast wrap was fantastic! They press it on a panini grill and serve it with a side of salsa. I am a big fan of breakfast wraps and this one was a perfect start to the morning, not too heavy, and kept me going till lunch. Overall, it was pretty standard. What I did like about the place was the reading material they offered and the cute asian barista with the thick framed glasses. He basically made my morning. read more

With about 30 minutes to spare before my bus Red Arrow bus left for Edmonton, I asked an attendant if there would be anywhere I could grab a quick lunch. She recommended I give A&W a try. However, I saw a sign promising Montreal Smoked Meat at Caffe Rosso. I walked in only to find a line about 5 people deep. So then I checked out A&W, only to find nobody at the counter. So I decided to deal with the line at Caffe Rosso. And despite the easy going and friendly nature of the people who take your order, the line moved fairly quickly and I had my Smoked Meat sandwich within 5 minutes of my arrival. And while the sandwich was a fairly standard Panini, it surely beats a Teen Burger. read more

Two words, sweet latte! It's there latte sweetened with honey and it's addictive. Service with a smile and atmosphere much more laid back than Deville. If your in down town near Stephen Ave. make the effort to hit up Rosso! read more

Rosso Coffee Roasters - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

See all

Excellent coffee, awesome staff, and really good "to go" coffee. Get the Americana or the Nutella coffee! In a city of coffee microrosaries it's hard to find one that stands out. We went twice in 2 days! It's a must if you're in Calgary. Also, go to Calgary. read more

I don't give five stars much. But for great espresso and pour over coffee. Alon with freshly made breakfast sandwiches and wraps. This place scores high.try their egg and bacon sandwich. I still crave the maple bacon. Conviently on the main restaurant street in Calgary. Near most large hotels. Forget their pricey breakfast and go for the walk to this great coffee place. read more

Love this place, the baristas are always very professional, courteous, and friendly, and they have a nice selection of food to choose from as well. It's never too busy, and the place is always clean. I would recommend it. read more

Cafe Rosso is a hidden Gem in Ramsay. Tucked beside a warehouse office conversion this spot offers well prepared coffee (which they roast themselves), baked goods and light meals. I enjoyed the breakfast sandwich although simple (eggs, bacon, bagel) the grainy mustard offered a flavour combo I was not use in a morning meal but worked great. Vibe relaxing but awesome, Food/Coffee um-um, Service great read more

I can say this is easily the best coffee in Calgary! Staff is great and the coffee is very consistent. Their food seems to be fresh, I wish they had a bit more variety, but as long as the coffee doesn't change I'll keep on coming back. read more

Consistently the best TradCap I have found. The baristas know what they are doing - and being in the coffee industry myself, I engage the staff in coffee talk and tasting, an element where they are sure to hold their own. I have personally seen their training, cupping, and bar tests executed, these cats KNOW coffee. I have yet to try the food, however the pastries are a sure win. Although not prepared on site or ordered daily, they are always fresh. The music is hit or miss and very dependant on the staff, but the décor and furniture are a major win. Wonderful large windows line the front side of this spot, perfect for people watching. Also, I love the fact that they do not have flavoured syrups. Good one, guys ;) read more

Thanks for the suggestion Yelp! The hotel I was staying at had a Starbucks in it and I really wanted to try out something new while I was in Calgary. Rosso was top billing for cafes within walking distance so off I went. When I got inside I headed straight for the pastry display, even though their selection of breakfast sandwiches looked amazing. As I was looking at the scones debating what deliciousness I would be consuming for breakfast Call Me Maybe, the summertime hit of 2012 came on and totally threw me off. For being a trendy/hipster cafe in DT Calgary I was not expecting that first thing in the morning. It seemed like the staff at Rosso agreed because all at once everyone behind the bar was just yelling "NO! NOO" and then the music immediately changed to Paul Simon then to Prince and then to Mungo James. I appreciated that they realized the horror of what came over the speakers and rectified it with more appropriate music. If ambience is what you care about, Rosso has got you covered. The coffee and scone were really good too! read more

This cafe is adorable. I first stumbled upon them at the ingelwood night market. I purchased coffee beans but they were unable to grind the, at the market. Feeling bad they sent me to this cafe with 2 free beverages. The staff were very friendly and I was happy to have free iced lattes while I picked up lunch. Lunch was great and I'm really quite happy that they offer a coffee subscription program. When I move back to Calgary I'm definitely taking advantage of it! read more

Fantastic coffee and one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had in the city. The sandwich took a little longer than I expected, but if you're not in a rush it's worth it. read more

Not bad. Terrific coffee. Not many gluten free options. Fair enough. Few cafés have g-free options. I saw sandwiches with chips and hoped I could have the soup. Unfortunately not g-free. But soul and chips would be lovely. I mentioned that there were crumbs from the cookies and muffins ending up on the gluten free banana bread. The cashier said he'd change it for next time and hadn't considered cross contamination. What a great attitude and reaction to my suggestion. No rudeness just positivity. I asked if it was ok to take out my lunch with my late and the staff were super nice about it. Most places won't let you do that so I'm grateful. Again absolutely fantastic late. Thank you. I'll be back! read more

Everyone around downtown is holding a Rosso coffee cup. Im travrlling, so of course I had to check it out. Just had a large cappucino and a gluten free banana loaf. The loaf was moist and delicious and very generous serving. The cappuccino was delicious with no bitter after taste and very smooth, however it had a very distinct flavour and aroma that I have never experienced. It tasted almost as if it was spiced. Nevertheless it was very good. $7.50 for both which is how much I would expect to pay. I would come back next time. read more

Made the walk from downtown/CBD and it was definitely worth the walk. Had the breakfast sandwich, which was fantastic. Best cheddar biscuit I've ever had! read more

Caffe Rosso is quite far from where I work, but sometimes I just have such a craving for their thai chicken soup. It's delicious. I also like their Turkey Club - yum. Once I had an ice coffee to go, it was very good. For a central downtown location, this place is great. For a weekend cup of coffee I would probably pick something more cozy. read more

Coffee quality is good but the atmosphere is preposterous. Major hipster place with a smattering of snobs.

Yum. Seriously smooth and full bodied coffee, with yummy bakery treats and paninis on the menu as well.

Really love their lattes and coffee and it tastes way better than the five-bucks franchises. Staff are always pleasant and accommodating. And it has a nice atmosphere. This place gives Cafe Beano a run for the best coffee house in Calgary. read more

THANK YOU Rosso Coffee. For the best cup of coffee I've had in weeks. Visiting Calgary from Seattle on business. I walked all around downtown and the awful +15 (I get it, it's cold, but your streets are depressing). Looking for the REAL thing, figured I'd recognise a real coffee shop if I saw one. I'm not a snob, I just want good coffee and I can tell the difference. I was about to give up my search when I came upon the Stephen avenue cafe. Had a traditional cappuccino, which was so soooo good, maybe perfect. Ahhh. Now my mood is lifted and today is a lovely day. read more

This is my absolute favourite coffee shop. Coffee is always right and awesome. The staff are excellent and I am always greeted by name. The breakfast sandwich is fantastic as well as the meatloaf sandwich at lunch. read more

I went there for lunch and I really enjoyed my sandwich ... The coffee was great as well... The place is very small and not fancy, but is a cool place to go once in a while ... read more

Had a great panini there last week - chicken pesto. grilled just right, quite tasty. Went back today to grab a late lunch. They were sold out of my pesto delight, so tried the grilled veg. I'm sure it would have been great had it been grilled... it was microwaved, all spongey and a total diappointment. read more

The spicy Thai chicken soup with the club sandwich is amazing.... So tasted like more.

We just got americanos but they were our favorite in downtown Calgary. The atmosphere is nice and clean and service was fast.

Best lattes in Calgary, and the servers at this location are great.

Went for a quick breakfast the other day while in town. Great coffee, food is pretty good, wish they had some fresh juices.

Ok we found it. If you like and appreciate the coffee you will appreciate this place. Yum. Great roast and great brew. Great job. I had a latte and my wife had a sweet latte (made with honey). I think we will buy some of their home roasted beans as well. Will be back. read more

Had a coupon for a free latte- it was really good. Ate here twice for lunch a few months ago and it was very good. They made an error - gave me the small soup when I paid for the larger one but corrected it without too much fuss :) read more

Met up for a quick meeting with a contact I met on the Bumble Bizz app, this was a great location as it was close to both of our works. Great coffee and a great chat! read more

I visited this coffee place with high expectations. I've had their coffee at local restaurants and I felt as though they were always great. Why not try an actual shop of theirs. To my disappoint the coffee was terrible. I ordered an Americano and it arrived with no crema. It's colour was similar to red rose tea. It wasn't very dark and it oddly tasted burnt. Perhaps the baskets were dirty. The service was still good but unfortunately, their coffee didn't meet my expectations. Maybe their places serve darker roasts or maybe it was an off day for this location. read more

Awsome! The poor barista making coffee's for a million social media unplugged attendees was fantastic. Even though he was slammed busy,every coffee,tea and latte was made with love. Will definitely return for a delicious mocha! read more

I've been to Cafe Rosso a couple of times, I would have rated this place 5 stars based on my first experience but the follow up visit was quite unpleasant. The first occasion I visited on a Weekend and service was quick very friendly and the coffee tasted great. I decided to try the place again on the way to work and grab something for breakfast as well. I was ignored for about 10 minutes while the staff chatted with someone else ordered a panini to go which took another 15 minutes and was handed over in a greasy paper bag that was being held as if it held excrement (pinched from one corner and held straight out). However good food may be if you are made to feel unwelcome then they obviously don't need my business. read more

Excellent service, within a nice coffeeshop atmosphere serving a very nice cup of coffee

I like their atmosphere! So nice and relaxing. Beautiful (rustic-ish?) kind of decor and minimalistic. They have cucumber water you can help yourself too. Tea and coffee and drinks in general are very expensive. Not sure if this is a Calgary thing? 6 dollars for a small matcha latte seems really pricy to me. I choose the muffin. It was ok- 3 dollar which is ok. Not the best tasting - quite greasy and you can see the grease on the muffin paper and on your hands. They don't have a lot of other selection for food. read more

Absolutely awesome spicy chicken Thai soup!! Coffee was great. Very nice atmosphere and great service!

After driving around for a breakfast joint that didn't have a line up out the front door we decided to check out cafe rosso in inglewood. I have to say I think the offering of breakfast joints in Calgary is all pretty boring.I miss Avenue diner. Anyways our breakfast sandwichs and coffee at Rosso where great. It was a chilled out joint to just relax, catch up on the Saturday Globe, and enjoy the sunshine. I be hiding out here often. read more

Great place for a morning coffee break, afternoon coffee break, or any time you just want to order sit at a coffee shop to work on your laptop. Their coffee and staff are amazing. I left my wallet there once and didn't realize it until they called me later in the day to notify me it was missing. 10/10 read more

amazing -you must check this caffe out. Coffee is amazing as is the food and the service. Warm and inviting, owners are interested and hands on. In house roasting, in house bakery- back to the basics with love and attention to detail. These guys are awesome. If you have not checked out Caffe Rosso it is a must if you care about simplicity at it's finest - great products at a great price and nice people who care about you and your experience; you must try my now, one and only, caffe. You will not find better value for an excellent product anywhere in Calgary. read more
