I was attracted to House simply because of its design graphic, I am funny that way.
I went to meet our web designer there for a meeting and he was a little late, so I decided to have something to eat while waiting. I decided on a cup of soup and a sandwich for 7.95 which was what I had spent on a small sandwich down the street at Higher Ground.
All in all service was good, the food was very nice, not too pricey and my coffee was under two dollars and delicious. The House sells and serves fair-trade & organic coffee as well as a great variety of organic loose leaf teas, fresh baking, soup & sandwiches and specialty cold beverages including smoothies!
I guess House is a non-profit coffee house run by the First Alliance Church in Calgary to bring people together in the community of Kensington. For this reason at House you will find certain events happening on certain nights, Monday nights are for classic board games, on Thursday nights expect an open mike night, Friday and Saturday come down for live music and on Sundays get in on some Bridge talk.
The House also sponsors on Wednesday a community night offering bowls of chilli at the Hillshurst/ Sunnyside Community Centre. Have I sold you yet? If so come over to my HOUSE in Kensington
