Looks like it used to be nice. Got charged for an item I didn't receive and asked for a refund, and they paid a partial refund out of their tip jar. Not sure if the usual staff didn't show up today or if everyone was new. Drinks served in to go cups even if sit in. Good music, centrally located in Kensington. Prices are higher than neighbouring coffee shops, though with the size of the location lots of room to spread out if you are studying.

Came here on a whim was quite good. The French toast was amazing and very picturesque. It sort of lacks an atmosphere though. Very pretty in design but it is always empty when you go. The staff are sweet enough too.

Do not! go there under ANY circumstances. I used to go to Espresso Cafe from the openning, and it was my go to place since. There were music nights, live concerts and buffe Sundays. They scratched that I think due to covid and I still supported them every Sunday to help their business, but I couldnt keep up anymore. They maintained desserts in their fridge that existed for months! and hard as a brick... they have fired all their chefs and hired a new one who thinks frozen mccaine potatoes is such a good idea for the brunch. No woffles or pancakes exists in the menu anymore... Iwouldnt go for croissants either. Overall, nothing good is left in that establishment. They must have been thinking "a penny saved is a penny earned"... naaa its not working for me unfortunately! im gonna take my hard earned dollars some where else and i regret all my previous support for the cafe.

The place is very spacious and clean. Theynhad some exciting , unique food. However not all food and drinks were great .
The crepes , croissant were and glitter hot chocolate was lovely ..but the lemon tart and normal hot chocolate was not good.
This is in a very convenient location .

So bad experience!
We were a group of 15 people.
Nothing was available. Long waiting. The brunch was not hot and delicious. My order arrived when my friends were leaving the table. The management is changed and the cafe is not set yet. Do not recommend at all!! I wish I could get less than one star!

Stopped in for brunch with some friends and absolutely loved the messy bowl. Food and drinks were delicious! The staff were all incredibly nice and well mannered, and the manager personally checked in at every table. Will be back for brunch!

Overall the food was delicious, they had great service. The grand piano in the corner of the restaurant was fascinating. They have the most comfortable chairs and made eating that much more enjoyable. 5/5 would definitely eat there again.

I used to love stopping in here for an upper-class cafe experience. I don’t know what’s happened, I go in now and the place has empty dirty tables everywhere and the floors were covered in food which I almost slipped on. The bathrooms weren’t stocked with soap, the toilet sprayed at me from a leak when I tried to flush it. It was a really bad experience. After eating there my stomach has also been upset. Although my latte was good tasting? So 2 stars

What a fabulous place! Great food and fantastic service. Highly recommend to go with friends and just hang out. Calgary should have more places like this one. Well done! Will come back more often

Amazing place with great staff! I absolutely love the grand piano! When there, you've got to try the Ali Special (Chocolate Chai Latte) and the Britny Special (Raspberry Mocha)!!

Cafe was very nice.
Service was terrible! Wasn't super busy, coffee wasn't ready, so we had to wait, brought my 'to go' latte in a stay cup and we informed the server of the error (did I mention the foam was already gone as it sat for so long). She proceeded to dump it into a paper cup and put a lid on it and just dropped it on the table, not a word said and walked away.
I got a cold $5+ dollar latte and terrible service on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.

Took to family there and found it to be a great place to hang on a Saturday afternoon.
