Another restaurant has opened to serve the seemingly endless desire of Calgarians for a place to enjoy breakfast and brunch.
Ace Coffee & Diner is similar to the likes of Diner Deluxe and the Beltliner. Serving both classic and trendy breakfast items (along with a more limited lunch menu), the restaurant places a lot of focus on locally sourced ingredients.
On my first visit, I tried the breakfast sandwich which included an over easy egg and fig jam on a brioche bun. The highlight of the dish was the smashed baby potatoes on the side.
Phil and Sebastian coffee is the available brew. In addition to standard coffee and lattes, the restaurant also offers fancier flavours for their coffee drinks including Nutella, ducle and Spanich lattes.
The restaurant advertises their baked goods as being made fresh on site. On this visit, they had a small selection of cookies and scones plus one variety of donut from Jelly Modern.
The prices are a little higher than standard diner breakfasts, but I feel its worth it for the better quality ingredients.
