Monogram Coffee in Altadore is one of the best cafes in Calgary, and for those centrally-located, there is now a Monogram Coffee Downtown location! The cafe is located in Fifth Avenue Place (office building), so to cater to downtown clients, it must have a lot of tables and seating. So, unlike its Altadore location, the […]

French Pastries at Sucre Patisserie and Cafe
Sucre Patisserie and Cafe is the latest newcomer (as of November 9, 2016) to the vibrant cafe scene in Calgary! And it is a welcomed addition with its French pastries and excellent coffee! I first heard about Sucre when I saw that it would be opening soon when I ate lunch at Posto Pizzeria and […]
Awesome Tropical Drinks at Mango Mania
Mango Mania is my new favourite go-to bubble tea/dessert drink cafe in Calgary! The dessert shop opened in Calgary during summer 2016, so it is still relatively new to the Calgary food scene. However, it’s since quickly become a gem in the dessert drink shop game. My sister and cousin brought me here for the […]

After walking around in downtown Banff and taking photos, I decided that I couldn’t stand the chill any longer (it was a chilly […]
Comfortable at Rosso Coffee Roasters on Stephen Ave
Rosso Coffee Roasters on Stephen Ave is the second location of the Calgary-based roaster. Starting off only as a cafe (called Caffe Rosso), Rosso branched out and started roasting their own coffee beans in 2012 and thus became “Rosso Coffee Roasters.” One of the underlying principles in Rosso is that they want to make everything […]
Retro Cafe at Vintage Caffeine Co in Kensington
After eating brunch at the wildly popular Dairy Lane Cafe, we decided to have coffee at a newly-opened cafe that was so raved about called Vintage Caffeine Co. Walking into Vintage Caffeine Co., it reminded me a bit of Philosafy Coffee on 17th Ave, perhaps because both are new hipster cafes with wooden accents and […]
