| - Ice cream, all day breakfast, snacks, coffee, lattes, steamers and cappuccinos, Angel's is a lot packed into just a wee porch-three tables in all.
There was a mother/son combo running the joint while I was there. I'm going to guess it's a family run place altogether.
As I sat here eating my breakfast bun, I listened to the banter between Cathy, owner, and a couple of regulars. Friendly, fun and upbeat in her demeanor, I found out Cathy is a Maritimer orginally and that Angel's has been around for about 14 years.
The breakfast bun beats out most that I've had at any coffee spots in Calgary yet. It was anything fancy, just a straight forward egg, cheese and bacon on a wholesome toasted bun. But it hit the spot.
The menu fits the name of Angels... Morning Prayers for breakfast items, Gateway to Heaven for wraps, sandwiches and soups, Garden of Eden (summer only) for the salads, Hugs for Your Soul as the hot drink menu... Not to mention Heavenly Desserts like that peanut butter marshmallow square that stared needlessly at me from the display case.
It's been many a moon since I was last year for some ice cream, but I'm glad to see they've still got the ice cream freezer stocked and that ice cream bars and popsicles are still listed on the menu. As the only business this close to Edworthy Park, I can't wait to find myself strolling along on the next warm spring evening with an ice cream cone in hand.
