Worst Cafe ever visited 🙂

If you are looking for a perfect spot for a quiet coffee moment, with soft jazz music and comfortable seating, this is it. With the fast service and friendly baristas, the seatings can be a bit crowded during peak hours.
Also if you love a good latte or flatwhite, this place nails it every time with just the right balance. Especially with their signature organic coffee beans, which is very rare to see coffee shops using organic coffee beans now a day.
And I absolutely love the vintage decor and rustic feel, really gives the place character. In addition, they have the live music weekly to enjoy your moment there.

This morning planing to get a coffee and there was only one staff working at the moment. I lined up and wait more than 5 mins and a lady was lining up at my back. When the staff calling the next client she just call the client behind instead of me (I was at the front of the one she was calling) .What????????? I am feeling so disrespectful and embarrassed. Since I was a bit rush heading back to work so I just left without buying anything. I felt so disappointed about this coffee shop and WON’T BE BACK any more. I believe in calgary there’s a lot good service and effective coffee shop.

Tuesday nights at Higher Ground are truly something special. The open mic is consistently fantastic, and the host brings such warmth and charisma to the space. He has a way of encouraging even the most hesitant performers (like me!) to step up and share, creating a welcoming atmosphere that builds confidence and community. It’s clear the other musicians feel it too. Add to that the delicious drinks and cozy vibe, and you’ve got the perfect midweek hangout. I genuinely look forward to Tuesdays here—and love introducing friends to the magic.

Great atmosphere and great service. The mac and cheese was superb. I went to one of the open mic nights on Tuesday and was delighted to listen and perform live music. Enhanced the cafe experience for sure, definitely recommend the open mic nights at this place!

The flat white is okay, and the service is great, but the atmosphere doesn't feel great, like I just wanted to get out of there ASAP.

Internet doesn’t work, I went there to do work, and I couldn’t connect.

The table was not cleaned, a customer cup was left there.

Great coffee spot for studying or hanging out with friends. I tried their banana magic, it’s a good drink tastes like dessert.

This place is a very hidden gem. It's a small Cafe with a tonne of character.

Dinning experience - pure excellence
The serving team were friendly and courteous, nothing but a smile and a genuine appreciation for their customers.

Food - Outstanding. I had the Tuscan Breakfast Sandwich. Delicious and so full of flavours that worked synergisticly together.

I am looking forward to my next visit. 😁

Try it for yourself. You may be surprised.
