Possibly my favourite coffee shop in the city. Big selection of baked goods - scones, muffins, cookies - that aren't necessarily good for you, but good to eat! Take your coffee and treat to the table of your choice, too. It's usually busy, but it's…More »
I was left stranded at Southgate Mall for about an hour the other night, my fiancee having taken our car, and me, stupidly, forgetting house keys. Just a typical Thursday is all.
After some shopping, I needed a caffeine hit and a place to rest of my…More »
In addition to computers snug in the back of this coffee shop, wireless is reliable here (although you have to ask for the password) plus plug-ins - so many plug-ins! Hallelujah!
Seating all around is very comfy, with a big set of couches in the…More »

This is my new all-time favourite coffee shop ever. For any purpose. In fact, scratch that first sentence. This is my new all-time favourite place ever. Period.
As Stefon would say, this place has everything. Fresh flowers, home decor, hot coffee,…More »
What with Edmonton being one of the sunniest cities in Canada and all, the folks at Transcend seem to know what they're doing by installing massive windows along the front of their 109th street location. You can't sip a latte in Transcend without…More »
My soy latte was quite the nice steamy and frothy concoction. It came out quickly and I settled into one of the cozy oversized arm chairs and pulled out my laptop to rock out some caffeine-fueled yelping. It wasn't too busy - 9 AM-ish on a Friday…More »
Big shout out to all of the yelpers who wrote reviews about this place already. I was meeting with some old friends for breakfast and they wanted a new place to go to that wasn't IHOP. This place sounded pretty awesome based on those reviews and we…More »

How do I not have a review of this wonderful, wonderful coffee shop?
Only a tiny doorway leads you into Block 1912. Very deceptive indeed. Inside is an absolutely massive cafe. It goes super far back and the high ceilings really top it off. I'm not…More »
I like this place because it's such a surprise. Being in the dead centre of Manulife Place (an office building/mall kind of a thing), you wouldn't expect this place to be an awesome Italian restaurant with a ton of seating.
Grab a chair inside of the…More »
You might not know this place exists unless you frequent the Italian Bakeshop it's housed in. Off to the right of the main grocery store's doors, this quiet little cafe serves typical lite Italian fare: paninis, a huge selection of cakes, and…More »
This might just be my new favourite coffee shop! If it isn't the rich hot chocolate or flavourful teas, it's the fun conversation with Luzzara owner Sarah.
The space is so cool. Super-cute black and white wallpapering (and curtains to match!) and cute…More »
Very cool coffee art - an artistic leaf design to top my London Fog. The perfect amount of strong tea and sweetness in my cup, too.
I like the vibe in here. It's perfect for business meetings, and freelancers with laptops surround you. The only…More »
Coffee here is amazing, and will perk you up right up for the massive meal that is about to follow! What I love about Artisan's big menu is its diversity. Big and small meals, food for the carnivores, omnivores, and herbivores.
In addition to a pipin'…More »

Just visited Sugarbowl for a dinner/dessert night out with friends, and I could NOT believe we were able to get a table on a Saturday night. Whether for breakfast, dinner, lunch, or late night drinks, a table at the Sugarbowl is hard to come by…More »
A neat, Italian-style bistro with typical Italian fare: for a lighter meal, try a salad, soup, or panini. I had the caesar salad, and although I wish I had asked for the dressing on the side (it was too thick and goopy for my tastes), it was still a…More »

This unassuming booth in HUB Mall has some of the most inexpensive coffee in the area, but no one seems to know it! There isn't usually a line-up because BT is more well-known for its paninis and frozen yogurt, and the university crowd is usually…More »
Da Capo is a cute, upscale little cafe located in the Garneau area. It's a great place for a date, a pizza with friends, or a summer gelato.
Speaking of which -- pistachio gelato? Be still, my heart! I think I found a new favourite food in Edmonton!
…More »
Plenty of bike parking and conveniently located just a block from the University of Alberta. The lattes here are priced higher-than-average ($5!), but they're worth it!
Make sure to try the pizza for a yummy lunch (I recommend the spinach and feta),…More »
It's kind of cool to have a coffee bar with hookahs now on Whyte Ave. It seems like the kind of thing that should have been a long time coming, don't ya think?
It's a pretty large coffee shop, and although it was empty when I went in, I didn't read…More »
This might just be my favourite Second Cup in the Edmonton area (but as a St. Albert girl born and raised, I might just be biased)!
The staff here are great, and always try to get through multiple customers in the line-up at a time. The drinks come…More »
I stopped by Remedy Cafe for a late-night snack and coffee with a friend. The crowd is hip and young - a lot of university students finishing papers (free wi-fi!) and chatting philosophy. It's a great place to do some people watching.
I tried a vegan…More »
Bonus points for the free parking (lots of it) and outdoor seating at this S-Bux location just outside of Edmonton. I was surprised at how little seating there was, because it's a medium-sized coffee shop, but they do have some comfy couch-style…More »
I was cold and hungry today, out and about with no clue as to what I wanted for lunch, so this Tim Horton's and the familiar fare it offers called my name as I drove past it.
I was kind of disappointed with the wait time when I got in - only one man…More »
I'm always afraid to give a big chain such an overwhelming super-positive review, but this Second Cup really takes the (coffee) cake.
It's got a bright, big, sunshine-streaming window right in front with a bar in place where you can sit, sip on your…More »
I walk by Death By Chocolate all the time. Whenever I park on Calgary Trail and walk to Block 1912 (which is often), I pass Death By Chocolate and fondly remember that one time I ate really good cheesecake here for a friend's birthday.
I was making my…More »
One thing I truly can't believe is how friggin' long it took me to finally try the newest location of Edmonton. Yes, a week is a long time in Brittany Land to go without trying a new coffee place.
This new Transcend takes thing to a whole 'nother…More »
After years of tasting Duchess at various events 'round town, I finally dragged my sweet-loving feet over to the 124th street location for my favourite Office Hours yet.
The staff were so accomodating for our big group and even turned a blue…More »
Mmmm, London Fog. I know Transcend is all about great coffee (and their coffee is fantastic), but they serve up a mean London Fog, too.
A cute little location off Argyll with lots of seating both on the main level and upstairs. I was the only one…More »
Out on the very north side of town, Jax is a cute (and quirk-ily named) little cafe in a much larger strip mall.
The decor is very "crazy-great-aunt's house." Lots of little knick knacks for sale, and then you turn around, and bam! Hookahs for sale,…More »
The nanaimo bar was the bizzomb. I should probably try the pie, since that is what they're famous for, but I don't know if I'll be able to come back here and not order the nanaimo bar. Like, dang.
I just stopped in here with some time to kill on my…More »
I don't like going into a new cafe/restaurant/shop/whatever with high expectations because I'm usually disappointed. So not the case with The Sequel Cafe.
A small part of me wants to knock a star off for their lack of signage (it was definitely tricky…More »
I have so many fond memories of Cram Dunk. Actually, the circumstances of said memories are usually not so fond. Staying overnight in SUB to write a paper or study for finals...that was when I needed Cram Dunk the most.
The donuts and pastries are…More »
I love a few things in life. Coffee, Italian food, and places off the beaten track. OK, so McKernan isn't so "off the beaten track," but it's far enough away from Whyte Avenue and far enough into the residential streets of McK that it feels worlds…More »
Stopped in for lunch and it was A-OK. It's a bit of a weird spot, more of an older crowd. My gal pal and I were definitely the youngest ones in there by several years.
The food was actually was pretty good (my clubhouse had a delicious sweet mayo) and…More »
I am Jeffrey's newest and biggest fan. I love cafes. I love wine bars. Jeffrey's is both!
It's quieter during the day, with plenty of tables and a few couches perfect for getting work done or catching up with friends. They offer some light lunch items…More »
I've found my new favourite coffee shop in the city, I think. Just maybe.
Swung by last weekend for a morning date with Sarah J. Now, after reading this review, you can't say I didn't warn you when I tell you that it might be awfully tricky to find a…More »
Awesome! Awesome awesome awesome. How else can I describe The Carrot? Oh, wait - awesome.
To kick things off, The Carrot has everything I look for in a coffee shop. Lots of tables, piping hot coffee, friendly staff, free wifi, and an eclectic…More »
I come to Heartland almost every time I come to Calgary! We stay with the in-laws in Renfew and this Bridgeland cafe is a quick walk or drive. I love the area and all of the other little businesses along this street, too. The only thing I don't like…More »
I grew up in St. Albert, and while I go back frequently (usually every week or so), my trips are usually only to my parents' place (my childhood home!) and back home again.
Yesterday, I had an appointment with my eye doctor, the same one I've been…More »
Mmm, Kids in the Hall Bistro! I don't get here as often as I would like to, but when I worked downtown I would try to eat here sometimes.
I was at City Hall with a group of friends and acquaintances a while back and we all took in lunch here. Awkward…More »
