My husband and I were visiting Calgary from California and The Coup was so phenomenal we actually ate here twice during our trip! Everything about this place is top notch: the food, the vibe, and the people. Our server was incredibly knowledgeable about vegan food and made fantastic recommendations. The hot pot was hands down the best curry I've ever tasted. The sauce had this gorgeous brightness and depth that made every bite unforgettable. The yam fries with miso gravy were exceptional, and the peanut sauce with the tofu satay was absolute perfection. The dinner ambiance was lovely and cozy and you can tell the servers genuinely enjoy their jobs. That kind of positive energy makes the whole experience even better. If you're in Calgary, vegan or not, The Coup is a must visit. Phenomenal food, phenomenal service, phenomenal atmosphere. read more

The Coup had been on my to-go list for a number of months as one of Calgary's trendier vegetarian spots on 17th Ave. I finally got a chance to go last week after work, and I was not disappointed! My partner and I went for happy hour, and we were the only ones in the restaurant when we walked in just after 4pm. I really liked having a bit of a quieter atmosphere. Our server was quite personable and recommended a variety of dishes. We got the Brussels sprouts, satay broccoli, eggplant nigiri, and the soup of the day (Indian style tomato chickpea). The Brussels sprouts were punchy in flavor, and the broccoli was nicely fried with an earthy peanuty sauce. I would highly recommend both. I also got the Sunny cider, which wasn't too sweet. To finish off, we got the ube cake to go. Unfortunately it wasn't our favorite, and it was too small a portion to be priced at $12 in my opinion. With happy hour discounts, our bill came out to about $60 including tax and tip. Not cheap, but it works nicely for a little "treat yourself here and there" outing. Hoping to go back sometime in the new year! read more

Lovely ambiance and great service. The portion seems to be small though. I ordered eggplant sushi which was unique and well done but there were so much rice and just one thin slice of eggplant sitting on each piece. So overall it was an ok but not awesome experience read more

One of my absolute favourite restaurants. Arrived during "happy hour" and we thoroughly enjoyed double orders of all the sushi items. Definitely enough for 4 people. Amazing! Our sever was awesome and attentive. Sitting at a high-top table was quieter and we enjoyed that very much. Happy Birthday to me! read more

Really cool place. Food is great. Service is awesome. Cool vibe drinks and food. Highly recommend.

The food was so delicious here that we made a point of returning on our 2nd pass-through in Calgary! Super easy and delicious vegetarian and vegan options. The sweet potatoes (yams) are just amazing. The wait staff is dedicated and hard working. Restaurant is comfortable and elegant at the same time. Very highly recommend this place! read more

I guess it really depends on how much you like vegan or vegetarian food. Well I am so so. I came here because I had a friend from Vancouver come over to visit me and she is a vegetarian. I don't know a lot of vegetarian places in Calgary. So the three of us (my sister, Yelper P and myself), decided to give this place a try. My sister and I, shared the vegan benedict. I do like the mushroom in the benedict. We had potatoes on the side and they were ok. The food was slightly on the salty side. Yelper P seemed to like her food. We were also given free sample drinks to try. It was ginger, cucumber drink with an interesting kick. They were served in shot glass. We came on a Sunday morning and it seemed quite quiet. There was only 2 other tables occupied before noon. After noon a few more people showed up. Getting a table was not difficult and of course no wait. read more

Really cute place in a safe and touristy shopping area. Free on street parking after 6 pm on Saturdays. We ordered the mushroom bacon sushi (excellent), the crispy Brussels sprouts (excellent x 10), the cauliflower (I thought it was pretty good but it was my husband's favorite), the roasted potatoes (excellent!), and the drunken noodles. I didn't like the drunken noodles, but my husband did. They were fresh and flavorful but not really my thing. I also got the blueberry yuzu cider which I loved. The service was good, the atmosphere was very chill. All genders bathrooms, thank god! Would go here again. read more

I absolutely love this restaurant but I think it is out of business now I went to it a while ago but I heard it's out of business in Calgary. If there's one in your town you should go do it it's very like farmhouse sea organic actually I don't think it's all organic but it's like farmhouse sea. It's really cool I love this place but check Google first to make sure it's still in business. read more

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Creative, delicious vegetarian/vegan food and cocktails with great service and ambiance. For our last night in Calgary we wanted a pretty nice dinner. Yelp gave us several suggestions but this place went right to the top of the list because it was vegetarian/vegan and had such good reviews. We made reservations, which was a good thing because the place isn't very large and was packed. It had that retro-mod but slightly rustic look with lots of wood and plants, which was stylish yet still friendly and cozy. They also had a live DJ spinning some loungey electronic music, which was a nice touch. We got seated at one of the tall communal tables by the windows, which turned out to be a good place to see what's going on in the resto as well as the outside. We started out with a couple of cocktails, which turned out to be really well-made and delicious. Then we chose a variety of items from the menu to share--everything was really great, with just a minor quibble with a sushi roll's rice being a little too al dente. It was really exciting for the bf to know that he could order anything on the menu. For the record, everything is vegetarian, but not necessarily vegan, but they can make a lot of the items vegan so there is that. The meal and service were wonderful. I think this place is a must-visit in Calgary for any vegetarian or vegan (or even an omnivore who just likes tasty food). read more

We enjoyed the variety of options. We appreciated the flexibility of the menu--they are able to accommodate vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and even onion/garlic allergies. The coffee crisp cheesecake was amazing! read more

Tempeh Shawarma was excellent. And so was hot pot. Although hot pot is not everybody's cup of tea, it's has a lot of flavors, lots of veggies and basically a lot going on. It might make an even better dish if they removed a couple of ingredients/flavors. It tastes like Tom Yum soup with its lemongrass flavor and perfect for a cold day when you want a soothing soup while still feeling you up. I had only had half the portion and was full and packed the other half for later. The prices are a little steep with $20+ for main course/large plates and while bowls have good portion sizes, the sandwiches don't. Fresh, high quality ingredients though. I just can't justify going there often because of the price point but I do love the food. read more

The Coup located in a beautiful and trendy area of Calgary. The parking around there isn't ideal but there are some options. The restaurant is beautiful inside very relaxed and trendy. The food is amazing! Many vegan options with reasonable prices and portions. The biggest thing with this restaurant are the unique flavors. Honestly as a vegan it is rare to have food that appeals to non vegans while staying true to non complicated vegan cuisine. I definitely recommend this restaurant to try veganism while enjoying what good gastronomy is. read more

Thoroughly impressed with my dinner. I wish I had room to try the desserts because they sounded so amazing as well. I had the soup of the day which was a cauliflower turmeric tandoori, a sushi roll appetizer (which was good but probably my least favorite of the dishes), some large assorted appetizer plate and a main dish of the hot pot bowl, which with the soup was the highlight of my meal. I have eaten at a massive number of vegetarian / vegan friendly restaurants worldwide and this was some of the best food that I have had. My drinks were also good as well, I had a maple matcha tea and a Vietnamese iced coffee. The drinks were on the small size for the price, but the meal was enormous, so large that I had trouble finishing it and no room left for dessert. Waitress was super attentive as well. Came with a large party, most of who are not vegetarians and the food was a hit for almost everyone in the crowd. read more

Made an order on Uber tonight and typed a note to the kitchen, asking for a bit more sauce than usual because they had been lacking with the food to dip ratio and I was always left without dip half way through the crudités and bread. The manager promptly called and informed me that she would need to charge me and and I kind of snapped at her saying that I order it from there all the time and I mentioned it before in my notes but I still loved the dishes Even though sometimes they aren't perfect (which is cool - pobodys nerfect) Anyway we initially both got defensive but after hearing of the inconsistencies, she genuinely apologized and then I said I was sorry for being a b*tch. We had a good chuckle and said bye. When I received the order - there was so much dip !! everything was Delish! She also hooked up a vegan cheesecake and wrote a sweet note. Excellent manager skills, love this place even more. read more

Super delicious! I had a marinated eggplant dish while my partner had the banh mi. We were both very happy with what we got. Our waitress was very polite and attentive. It wasn't too busy when we went in for lunch so it was chill. We keep talking about how we'll absolutely go back again soon. read more

We saw an ad for this place in a local magazine and decided to check them out after reading some great reviews on Yelp. They did not disappoint! The atmosphere was inviting and the service was great. We both enjoyed a tasty chai beverage and their whip dip appetizer. I had a sandwich with the featured carrot soup and my boyfriend had the burger. Before we had our meal the server brought out a complimentary vinegar shot (shrub shot) which is said to help cleanse your organs. This business does a lot to do their part in helping our plant as well. Their ingredients are locally sourced and organic. To help off-set their waste, they plant 36 trees a month through Tree-Canada. Amazing! read more

Stayed in Calgary for a few days and wanted to find some food that met my high standards of health. One of the best restaurants I've been to. Their menu is amazing with some Asian inspired entrees that were my idea of a perfect dish. Portions are acceptable for the price. Cool atmosphere and great location as well. read more

I was wandering around the city killing time and figured some light bites and a cocktail would be great. So I wandered a few blocks further and stumbled right into The Coup. The doors were open and there were a few guests seated inside, but it wasn't all that busy. I chalked that up to the fact is was nearly 3pm on a weekday and checked out the cocktail menu outside before walking in to see what's up. Apparently, I'd missed the hours outside because they were just about to close between lunch and dinner. Regardless, I explained I was only after a drink and the bartender was happy to oblige. Sadly the cocktail I had eyed outside was taken off the menu, and seeing as many of the drinks have housemade ingredients, it's not that easy to just whip one up. So I went with option B, a scotch cocktail with chambord. I was nervous about it because chambord is so sweet, but the bartender insisted it was balanced. The drink was rich and slightly syrupy, but in a good way. You didn't want to chug it, but it did go down easy. The chambord was pretty prominent, but the savory smokey notes of the scotch peeked through, breaking it up. The entire experience at The Coup was incredibly warm, friendly, and comfortable. I ended up sitting next to a local reporter who was interviewing the owner, so I got a bit of the backstory. When I'm back in Calgary I'll certainly swing in DURING OPEN HOURS to try some of the food! read more

My friend and I were in Calgary for the weekend and being a vegetarian I love to visit any popular vegetarian recommendations. The Coup was recommended by many people and I've heard the name before so it was the night to give it a shot! It was quite busy so I recommend making a reservation before coming out. The restaurant is very trendy and your classic vegan atmosphere. The menu had many appealing options and the staff were very willing to work around my coconut allergy. I tried the pear hot cider and was intrigued by the taste but not inlove with it. The trio dip was very healthy filling to the point when the main course came out I was too full to really taste or enjoy it. I would recommend sharing an appetizer with a group or simply just ordering a main dish. I can't quite put my finger on it, but something about the restaurant had me wanting more, and didn't live up to the expectations that were set. It wouldn't be my first choice for a night out. read more

[Starters] 1) gyoza 2) chard 3) crispy cauliflower wings WORTH The gyoza was the best in all the starters we had. NOT WORTH: The chard dish wasn't worth it and the cauliflower wings were nothing special [Main Course] 1) Hotpot Was pretty good, would give it a 3/5 as something I'd get in any other restaurant but this was a vegan dish so I guess that makes it something special. Missed out on trying the dragon bowl but will do next time [Drinks] 1) Cuke Collins 2) blueberry fizz 3) kombucha gimlet WORTH: the fizz and the gimlet were super good and worth it NOT WORTH: cuke colline.. was pretty meh [Desserts] 1) Alberta potato donuts 2) asparagus & pistachio cheesecake WORTH: both were quite yummy but the cheesecake tops the donuts as they tasted quite different (yet really good!). The donuts, taste wise, was really good but it tasted normal like the dessert you can get at Denny's. read more

One of my all-time favourite restaurants. This restaurant is amazing veg restaurant with unique Vegan options. We ordered the Vietnamese sub with wild mushrooms and the noodles stirfry. My husband thought the stirfry was a little plain but I loved the Vietnamese sub. We also ordered a veggie juice and the chocolate tarts which were delicious!!! I also really appreciate that they have metal vs plastic straws. They don't take reservations except for big parties and it's a very popular place so go early or expect to wait 30 to 60 minutes. They also have a small but nice patio. I would highly recommend this place even if you eat meat read more

Perfect dinner place for vegetarians/ vegans! Loved the hot pot. It came with all these vegetables mixed in a really delicious broth. There's a lot of spices and herbs mixed together but it wasn't much spicy. It was so good, I could have it every day for dinner, if only I knew the recipe. read more

Food was so delicious from the vegetarian sushi to the hot pot and the drunken noodles. We got the recommendation from a bartender at the "sister restaurant" Nourish Bistro in Banaff.

Tuesday at 5:30pm with a gf. Had a lovely waitress who explained their huge drink menu and was very good about assuring me which items are dairy free. We tried the tempeh sticks - tasty but not a huge fan of them. Texture thing in my part. I'd like to give the cauliflower appie a try next time. Had a lovely bowl- coconut rice, eggplant peanut salad and mushrooms that looked like scallops. Presentation was beautiful and highest of marks on creativity!!! I'm not vegetarian but I enjoy a meatless meal about twice/week. My gf had a quinoa veggie and tofu bowl with adobo sauce which she loved. We were so full but I could not resist the lime coconut cashew square- which is actually round haha! Brought it home and devoured it on my own. It was tart in flavour, light like a mousse and decadently rich from the nuts. Wow, great job!!! I will be back to try more items!!! I don't know if there are more veggie places in town but this is hard to beat! read more

Fabulous food. Honestly, it's hard to describe. I've had vegan and vegetarian food almost all my life and the Korean mushrooms were something I had never seen before. They were enormous and tender and the batter was perfection. The kimchi and broccoli samosas (I think they were something different... Not samosas, but right now I can't think of the exact appetizer name) we're cooked perfectly and super tasty. Soup was amazing and doughnut dessert as well. The food was way better than most vegetarian places in San Francisco. Staff was very nice. Ambience was good. I will definitely be back. read more

Really loved this place. On a cute street and very cozy inside. Both the alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks were fantastic and both my husband and I were happy.

The Coup is my absolute favourite vegetarian restaurant anywhere (and I've been to some stellar places!) I always try to stop by for a meal whenever I'm in Calgary. While everything on the menu is vegetarian, most items can be made vegan to accomodate dietary needs. During my last visit I started with a delicious Ruby Crush cocktail made with cherry juice and bourbon. It was hard to pace myself from drinking it too fast because it was so delicious. My friend tried the Lost in the Woods and we were both excited by its "light flame" when the drin was brought to our table. For dinner I ordered the falafel quesadillas. By this point I think I've had most of the menu items. While the Green House Effect salad is still my favourite, this is a close 2nd. This non-traditional quesadilla was stuff full of flavourful falafel, hummus, feta, and vegetables. I chose to get it with vegan tzatziki and feta which I highly recommend, even if you do eat dairy. They were both delicious and added to an already fantastic dish. read more

Canadian Food = Bland Wholesome and Comforting Vegetarian Food = Bland Wholesome and Comforting Sounds like a marriage made in heaven to me. Coup really delivers the goods on High Quality Good Time Vegetarian food. Everything is all natural, bio-sustainable, locally produced, non-GMO, watered by organic water and fertilized only by poop from 100% organic folk singers. The ingredients are pretty high quality. The room is nice and the bowls are beautiful. It does not hurt that they have an excellent excellent bar (heh heh). This is an all natural place - so I had a Cucumber Collins. There was gin in it, but there was also cucumber in it. This means it counts as a salad. It tasted magnificent and was certifiably potent. The Lemongrass soup tasted like pea soup, and had the consistency of pea soup. No lemon, no grass, but that was probably the result of being pureed. There is nothing wrong with tasting like pea soup. I like pea soup, so I was happy. Main dishes run to the bowl of noodles or plate of healthy grains with steamed veggies and the sauce of your choice. Great big coarsely cut veggies. Good miso sauce. I was filled to the gills with garbanzo beans and brown rice. Mild happy happy food. Dessert? Eh. Dessert was not as spartan as those macrobiotic desserts served by the high priests of no-sugar who believe that if you want dessert, your shakras are out of balance, and the only solution is to give you a dessert you would never want to order again. Dessert was not as spectacular as the great vegan cooks of the twenty first century who know how to make healthy desserts that are utterly decadent. We labored through a vegan gluten free chocolate torte that was neither a punishment nor a treat. But never mind dessert, get happy, get healthy and get balanced with grains vegetables and miso sauce. And bartender, make me another six or seven of them cucumber things, while I wait for the floor to stop undulating........ read more

The coup is located downtown Calgary on 17th ave and has been around for at least a decade, if not more. As someone who isn't even a vegetarian, I can't speak highly enough of The Coup. Their menu is a vegetarian based menu but the way they create their dishes, you would never even know it. They have a lovely little patio when the weather permits, house created cocktails and drinks and just a overall warming vibe. I first started going there when I was completing my graduate studies at the University of Calgary and, even though I have since moved away from Calgary, I still try and make a point of going on in for dinner or lunch every time I am in Calgary or at least order take out. I have never had something on the menu that I didn't like but I have to admit that hands down my favorite meal on the menu is the falafel quesadilla with yam fries and garlic aoli. There is just something about it that makes me crave it and is hearty and filling all at the same time. I recently took my plant based partner there for dinner while we were in town visiting a friend and he also loved it. We started off with the cauliflower wings and sushi, which were both delicious. I generally don't even like cauliflower but The Coup managed to change my mind with at least this dish. I, again, had the falafel and it was just as good I remember it being while he had the panda bowl and our friend had a salad. Everyone enjoyed their entrees and we shared a chocolate torte dessert with coffees and chais at the end. The coup definitely never disappoints and it is a wonderful place to go for brunch, lunch or dinner, as they cater to all meals. I will definitely continue my routine of trying to stop in my next trip to Calgary. read more

Stopped by for dinner for two on a Sunday. Got a table right away without a reservation. Our server was delightful, charming, and very helpful. All of our food arrived very quickly. I am vegan and my companion is an omnivore; we both enjoyed everything we tried on the menu. Our server pointed out what was & could be made vegan for me. The drink menu is hefty and exciting. Regretfully, I didn't try anything from it, but was extremely tempted. My companion tried a cocktail, I forget which, but found that near the end the strong herbal flavours were a bit too much for her liking. She enjoyed the first, milder half of the drink, but did not finish the rest of it. To start, we shared the Baked Rosemary Yam Fries with Garlic Aioli. No picture of that because we ate it so quickly-- it was delicious, cooked perfectly. My companion enjoyed the Midori Tsukemen, which our server let us know was served chilled so not to surprise us. It comes beautifully poured with a bright green sauce, as well as some purple plants on the side. I ordered the Giant Panda. I am a sucker for seitan, so the seitan yakitori excited me. The Giant Panda comes with quite a bit of rice, and though it was delicious, I felt that there could have been a bit more peanut sauce to balance it out (or a bit less rice), and I did mix it around to distribute the flavours. It was not mentioned on the menu but the Giant Panda comes with cilantro, to my delight. Fresh shaved vegetables balanced the heaviness of the seitan and peanut sauce. It is a pretty heavy and filling dish, but quite tasty. Though we were pretty full, we entertained the dessert menu, and surrendered to the Flowers, Blossoms, & Petals "Cheese" Cake. My companion also ordered the Coconut Berry Fog drink, which arrived with a white heart swirled into its pink froth. I loved the "cheese" cake, and we took the rest to go since we were both too stuffed to finish it. I highly recommend trying it. Our experience at The Coup was warm, positive, and delicious overall. Quite a bit of the menu can be made vegan or already is. My companion, who does eat meat but is open to try some vegetarian cuisine, very much enjoyed it. I had heard about The Coup a few times from some vegetarian friends, and am very impressed by the food and atmosphere. I will definitely be returning to try some other menu items that piqued my interest (there were many). read more

Delicious vegetables for all! Even the meat eaters! Love everything the do here food wise. Normally it takes only a little while to work out what I feel like ordering but with the menu at Coop I deliberated for a quite a while before making my choice. In fact my boyfriend and I made sure that what the other was ordering was something we wanted to try. The boy had the Thai Pizza - they use a tortilla shell as the base topped with peanut satay sauce, chili flakes, smoked cheddar cheese, smoked tofu, green onion, black sesame seeds, inca fire salt and scallions. The tortilla shell is lovely and thin and stay crisp through to the middle. They pile the toppings on so even though a tortilla shells sounds like a small meal the toppings get you fill fast. I had the Chow Mein Unplugged. Noodles with a ton of seasonal veg which also included purple cabbage & kale, delicious garlic-juniper sauce, all topped with applewood smoked oyster mushrooms - amazing! Love these mushrooms. Who thinks to take mushrooms and applewood smoke them? These guys. Applause! Good size portion and filled me up. Their drink menu is extensive - one page all non-alcholic and different teas, the opposite page all great sounding cocktails. They dont take reservations but we were told that if you generally arrive around 6pm its not too long of a wait. We were seated next to a couple at a 6-top table so we had some space between us and didn't feel like we were crowding eat other. Great experience and looking at their brunch menu online it seems they have great options there too. read more

Had a lovely breaky at the coup. Food: my el sombrero with smoked tofu was VERY good (can choose between egg or tofu filling) with a side of hash, salsa and sour cream....the salsa had a sweet taste to it and was quite enjoyable. ($13.50). Friends had the frittata daily special, and mediterranean scramble which both looked very good as well. Drink: basil lemon-limeade was also very good being the right amount of tartness! ($6.50) Great food, good service, busy busy, I think we got the last table @ 9:30 am, so go a bit earlier for breakfast/brunch. Would definitely come back for lunch / dinner. read more
