tea (and coffee) list
See All Lists
1. The Naked Leaf
The Naked Leaf has, by far, my favourite selection of teas in Calgary. If you are in Kensington, strolling about and looking to treat yourself, let it be to one of the beautiful teas the Naked Leaf has to offer.
It is very clear that each tea has been…More »
2. Samovar Tea Lounge
San Francisco, CA 94102
USA

Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Restaurants,
Tea Rooms
Neighbourhood: Hayes Valley
I am part of Calgary's very tiny little tea nerd community. When I told all of my friends I was going to San Francisco for the first time, alllll I heard were raves about Samovar, and their amazing staff that attended the World Tea Expo and were…More »
3. Caffe Beano
I really like Caffe Beano. For years I was too intimidated to go in, as I have always been much more knowledgeable in the field of tea than coffee. However, I am glad I got over myself because I was missing out.
I usually like to hit up Beano with…More »
4. Remedy Cafe
Once upon a time, I had come to this cafe while visiting a friend. However, I forgot where it was and what it was called. This was a couple years ago. I had been woeful ever since, for every cafe I from then on stumbled across in Edmonton was not…More »
5. Glowing Hearts Coffee Company
I stopped over at the Kingsland Farmer's Market on my way home from a friend's house this morning specifically to seek out a good cup of coffee. Glowing Hearts is a charming little Farmer's Market Vendor. It looks like they sell gelato as well as…More »
6. communitea cafe
I have a soft spot for visits to Canmore, and Communitea is a spot I love taking my friends and family along to. The food is delicious, and caters well to vegans. I have never had a terrible pot of tea here, although I usually have to press my leaves…More »
7. Wild Flour Bakery
To Wild Flour,
I dig you and your tasty coffee, and delicious bread, and how you have the option of loose leaf tea (although you ruin it by putting it in those gross reuseable bags and not letting it float freeeeeee). I also love how you have vegan…More »
8. Venus Sophia Tea Room & Vegetarian Eatery
Victoria, BC V8W 1R4

My last visit to Victoria, I had the pleasure of visiting this charming little teashop a few times. My most pleasant visit was with a friend who had actually travelled to London and was able to make comparisons about the quaint little High Tea…More »
9. Oolong Tea House
I do not necessarily visit Oolong Tea House just for the tea. The quality of the tea is definitely surpassed by other shops in the area, and their loose leaf offerings, while a large selection, can be found in other teashops as well. However, Oolong…More »
10. The House Coffee & Sanctuary
First, let me just say that I love the whole philosophy of the House.
I forgot that I liked the House, until the other day I stopped in with a friend for lunch. Recently undergoing a pumpkin obsession, I jumped at the chance to try the Pumpkin Chai…More »
11. Higher Ground
I am updating my review in order to reflect upon my experience at Higher Ground's Global Vegetarian Night this past Wednesday!
I attended with Tiffany, Wendy, and Danielle, lovely company. Tiff has already listed the menu on her review but I feel…More »

I dig Higher Ground. While the coffee isn't completely remarkable, the loose leaf teas can be beat… Read more »
12. Good Earth Cafes
Chai latte with soy milk+pumpkin spice muffin (vegans take note of this muffin as it is the best ever)= love
Good thing Good Earth is so bloody expensive or else I'd feast on these things every morning.
Recently updated lists from Sarah Louise F.
vegan friendly in calgary (45)not necessarily veeeeegan restaurants, as calgary has no strictly vegan places in the city, but places one can go that have at least an option or two. :) |
My vegan quest for the world's best falafel. (5)In a horribly omnivorous world, where vegans are considered strange by weirdos who munch on carcasses, falafel often becomes a default staple food for us. I have had falafel both good and horrible, and this is the list to end all falafel lists telling of my plight for the best falafel ever. |
"And this also... has been one of the dark places of the earth." (8)"The horror! The horror!"This is my Heart of Darkness list, if you will. I have voyaged to these dark establishments, witnessed the evils of humanity, the germs of empires. I shall tell you tales of my journeys, and hope that you do not fall into the darkness, like so many before us. ;) |
om! shanti! shanti! shanti! (5)yoga studios i have tried in the city. |

a list for book worms, musicphiles, and film nerds. (15)"Uhm... a film festival? No thanks. My friend went to one of those...and now she doesn't eat meat."These are the places in Calgary and the surrounding area that elate the literature/film/music nerd in me. |
