I just went into Ollia’s and she gave me a little baggie of delicious meringue cookies for my birthday! Very thoughtful and lovely of the employees working there! I went for pistacio macaroons and they’re so yummy.
Really enjoyed the box of macarons. The salted caramel and the chocolate passion fruit were excellent! The service was friendly and I would go back again!

I’ve ordered a box of 24 macarons for my husband birthday. Literally just 4 of all flavours were fresh and soft. All others were very dry and crumbly. I was very disappointed as it was a gift. Two stars for Earl Gary and Vanilla

A Whimsical Stop on 17th Ave | Colorful, Delicious, and Uniquely Calgary
If you’re strolling down 17th Avenue and in need of something that lifts your day, Olia Macarons & Tea is that joyful little stop you didn’t know you needed. From the moment you step inside, you’re welcomed by a playful palette of colors and delightful aromas that promise more than just dessert, they offer a moment of happiness.
The macaron selection is impressive, elegant, vibrant, and full of flavor. Each one is a delicacy in its own right, with textures and tastes that balance sweetness and creativity. Though I didn’t have tea this time around, the setting clearly invites it: a warm cup of tea paired with a few delicate treats is what this place was made for.
Location is prime, right on 17th Ave, across from a small park that offers a perfect place to sit, reflect, and enjoy your selection. Inside, you’ll also find charming little trinkets and curated gifts, another reason to walk in even if you weren’t originally planning to. Whether you’re looking for a thoughtful gift or simply want to treat yourself, Olia fits the occasion.
The service was warm and welcoming, adding to the experience. This shop is more than just a macaron stop, it’s a local gem that adds charm to Calgary’s culinary and cultural scene.
Wishing the owners continued success and creativity. May every visitor walk out not only with a sweet treat in hand, but also with a little more joy in their heart.
“May your day be sweet, your tea warm, and your hope renewed.”

I had such a wonderful experience at the macaron-making class at Ollia Macarons & Tea! The instructor was incredibly friendly and sweet, and she did a fantastic job explaining each step of the process, including why each technique was important for making light, airy, and delicious macarons. It was perfect for beginners and made the whole experience fun and approachable.
During our break, we were treated to a selection of Ollia’s own macarons along with some absolutely delicious teas—such a nice touch! The shop itself was clean, cozy, and very inviting. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone looking to learn something new and enjoy a lovely evening out.
I recently had the absolute pleasure of attending the Macaron 101 Baking Class at Ollia Macarons & Tea, and it was a truly delightful experience from start to finish. The class was well-organized, informative, and hands-on — perfect for beginners and macaron enthusiasts alike.
The instructor was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire process feel approachable, even for someone who’s never baked macarons before. We learned step-by-step how to create these delicate French treats, from whipping the perfect meringue to piping and filling them with delicious ganache. The tips and tricks shared were so helpful and easy to remember.
The ambiance of the shop added to the charm — it’s cozy, elegant, and filled with the sweet aroma of fresh macarons and tea. Plus, getting to take home our creations (and a few extras) was such a lovely touch!
Whether you're looking for a fun date idea, a unique gift, or just a way to treat yourself, I highly recommend this class. Ollia made learning something new feel joyful, delicious, and beautifully French.

Really cute shop located a short distance off of 17th Ave. The shop itself has sum unique and fun products including greeting cards, specialty sugars, and other items that pair well with sweets. The main star are the macarons which are both colour and delicious. The biggest problem is deciding which ones to try! They are delicious! Packaging is thoughtfully done, and only adds to the appeal. Overall well worth the trip to stop in and try some of the best macarons in the city.

I took a macron baking class and it was fabulous. We learned the technique of making a perfect little macron, and our pastry chef was incredibly patient. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, the little shop has amazing things to purchase and we were served delicious tea and professionally made macrons. Thank you for a very entertaining and informative session. Highly recommend.

Best macarons in town! Their consistency is astounding. And their flavours are incredible. Perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. I’m obsessed with their goat cheese & apricot flavour! I can’t get enough of Ollia, honestly!
Dietary restrictions: I am gluten free. Their selection is gluten free. I’ve had no issues!
