I recently went there with a couple of friends, and I'm inclined to say that it could become one of my new favorite restaurants in Calgary. They have a seasonal menu, which makes the thought of coming back each time pretty exciting. When we went the first time, we tried the Korean fried chicken sandwich, the daily special - honey kimchi burger, and the halloumi sandwich. All were excellent! The desserts were also amazing, the panna cotta was frozen, which they explained, but I wasn't mad about it. At first, it felt a little strange to be eating inside a gym, but I actually liked seeing all the action. It was also really decent prices for the quality of food! I'm really looking forward to going back and trying their newest creations.

This is a nice hidden gem in Shawnessy. It's in a weird location with terrible parking and zero…read moresignage. Therefore, it's hard to find. They are located in a Climbing centre. Have a look at my photos and you will understand. It's a small menu and it looks as though they specialize in the Benedicts. Therefore, I ordered the zucchini benny and it was delicious. The Egg was cooked perfectly and the flavours are there. The presentation is very nice. Also, while you eat you get to watch people climb. Like I mention before, it's a weird place to a cafe and because of this I don't think too many people know about this restaurant. They definitely need some type of sign because there is zero outside. They are only attracting the climbing patrons and they need to do a better job advertise to bring in other members of the public. I only heard about this place thanks to the YYC Facebook Foodie group. Otherwise I wouldn't have known about this place. There isn't too many breakfast cafes in this area so I think it would attract more customers if they advertise themselves more.

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.

The interior is bright and welcoming, with lots of wood tones in the cafe. We were able to order and find seats pretty quickly, as there are good amount of spots inside. I decided to order one of their seasonal drinks, which I think was a fruit-based matcha. The drink was quite good, although it was a bit on the pricey side. I can see why people come here, since the other lattes I saw also seemed to be intriguing with some interesting flavors. Pretty solid cafe in the downtown area, it's a nice one to stop by.

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!
