| - Right by the c-train station in Sunnyside, plenty of street parking nearby, pretty quiet location but just steps from 10th St and Kensington Ave.
Located in one of Calgary's heritage buildings, it get lots of light and has a great patio. Décor is rich and funky giving the place has a warm, hip vibe. There were all kinds of people: students, seniors, suits, sisters, etc.
Not a huge menu. Perhaps this café might be better suited for grabbing a freshly baked treat than a meal. Paninis are dry, which is odd because they are at the same time soaked with mayo and saturated with cheese. Roasted potatoes were soggy and needed seasoning. The food is why I am only giving this place a 3/5 - if you mess up sandwiched and potatoes.... I will return to try the baking, especially because my espresso was perfect.
Service was fine and dandy. I read a previous review about the café getting another till, but this is not a Starbucks. The pleasant, neatly dressed staff and timely service were a-ok.
Great location, great vibe, great coffee, but food needs improvement.
