The Eddie Burger and Bar serves great burgers and drinks for a casual dine-in at Downtown Banff. After arriving at Banff (at 2:30PM), I immediately made my way down to Eddie to have lunch because I was starving. My first restaurant choice (Chaya) was closed, so instead I ate at Eddie’s since it is highly-rated […]

Comfortable at Rosso Coffee Roasters on Stephen Ave

Monogram Coffee in Altadore is The Most Hipster Cafe in Calgary
In all honestly, Monogram Coffee in Altadore is the most hipster cafe in Calgary. Everything seems hipster: the obscure location in southwest, the hole-in-the-wall venue, the wood decor, the incandescent lightbulbs (maybe?) and the homemade almond-cashew milk.
