I didn't have a fade or a soul patch but I managed to communicate with the villagers who worked there. We used signs and grunts given how little street cred I had at 60. I used to drive from Edmonton. A woman once worked here with the most amazing tattoo work everywhere. Very groovy.

As far as I could gather she makes most of the sweets there but the gluten free she sources from another local venue. It's not a large space but well arranged and bright with some lovely seating directly by the windows on the main floor. To access the coffee shop you need to enter the building first. There's a gradual incline of a step depending on where you approach the building but I didn't spot if it's accessible for wheelchairs. Maybe I needed to walk further along the building? I'll let my photos tell the rest of the story as I was only able to try a date square and my cousin a tasty chocolate mousse of something as we had lunch prior to this stop.

I'm in Red Deer for a couple of hours so for lunch I consulted Yelp. Café Mellenium was not far so…read morethat's where we went. This café is downtown so we had to use the meters. After empting our pockets of change it gave us 48 minutes. Neither of us were ready for anything big so we both had soup and a muffin with coffee. They had four kinds of soup so I ordered cheddar broccoli. It was good, not from a can but not exceptional either. Bassically it's what we were looking for. The café offered some unique muffins which were satisfying. Our coffees were fine, although mine could have been a bit warmer than it was. The service was very friendly so I think they were also the owners. The café is located in the common area of the building which presumably is for a variety of offices. There were people coming and going like you would see at a shopping mall so that might prove distracting for people studying or working but it was very quiet while we were here. Will I come back? Certainly if I'm near the downtown and looking for a light lunch. Otherwise Red Deer is a large city now so there are many other places to explore. Tip: the washrooms are up the escalators and you need a code for the doors so ask for it at the café.

Pleasantly happy to find City Roast on yelp. Upon entering there are a couple of tables with adequate seating. We were greeted nicely by the gal behind the counter. The menu was a little overwhelming and decided to order a latte and a cappuccino along with a slice of hummingbird cake and a Saskatoon rhubarb scone. Our coffees were made and they were served they looked delicious as you'll see in the photo. First sip coffee was smooth and full of flavor no bitter taste to follow at all, so please with my order. Perhaps we'll stop by again before we leave.

Sometimes bubble tea places are slammed but when we arrived it wasn't too busy, but the longer we stayed the more people arrived! Not much for seating, definitely a pick up and take out kind of place. I like being able to pick regular or a jumbo size, plus options with amounts of sugar/sweetener and ice amounts! They had some seats still and a fun photo op spot. BUT absolutely no public washrooms! What we tried: New Red mango coconut Pearl coolers - amazing! With fresh mango this one was my absolute fav for flavor Yamtaro mochi milk tea - really interesting, with a classic milk tea kind of flavor. Fun to try different mochi/pearls. Kyoto Matcha cheesecake - rich and thick. Had a nice matcha flavor as well

Out of the four bubble tea stores in Red Deer, Bestea is my second favourite choice. It's…read moreconveniently located in downtown, but this also means it can be a sketchy venture at night. I do appreciate that they are open later however (10pm on weekdays, 11pm on weekends, 9pm on Sunday) for those late-night boba cravings! Their interior is very inviting but it is a smaller space with a few tables and a counter to sit down at. The back of the store has a backdrop, ring light, and phone holder for those looking for a mini photo session while waiting for your drinks! The simple reason that they are not my top pick is because I've had a fair share of not-so-great flavours while exploring their selection. Many of their blends that use strawberry tastes like the artificial powder stuff vs. real fruit, and leaves a gritty mouthfeel. I've tried many of their seasonal featured drinks as well and have been left feeling disappointed more than impressed. On the other hand, their milk brulee and cheesecake series have been really good! I also enjoy their fresh avocado latte. Their pearls have also been inconsistent, sometimes being overcooked and other times, too chewy. We've also visited when they ran out of their tapioca but we were still charged full price for our drinks. This is why I think they are deserving of a 3/5 as they have a mix of great, mediocre, and not so great drinks.
