WOW Bakery & Cafe (Marda Loop)

Sorry my daughter’s juice box is in the way of the pic.

My daughter’s favourite cake of all time is the strawberry cream cake from Wow. We went to pick one up for her birthday and they were so wonderful. The cake looked utterly perfect and tasted even better! They packaged it so beautifully and securely, that thing was NOT moving while in my car or while I carried it.

But the service, again, was stellar. Exemplary. Top notch.

Will absolutely visit again, thank you for everything!

This café gets the fundamentals right. Their coffee is excellent, no shortcuts, just a solid cup that shows they care about what they’re serving. The almond croissant was the standout: fresh, balanced, and clearly made by someone who knows what they’re doing. In fact, all of their baked goods looked and tasted like they actually come from a kitchen that takes pride in quality.

The atmosphere is relaxed without feeling staged. What really sets the place apart, though, is the staff. They act like real people, not robots cycling through a script. There’s an honesty and warmth to the way they interact that makes the whole experience feel human.

If you’re after great coffee, something genuinely good to eat, or just a spot that treats its craft seriously, this place is worth going out of your way for. You can tell they put their heart into it.

One of my favorite bakeries for sure🩷 The place feels really cozy and the Christmas decorations were so cute that it made the whole visit even nicer🎅
Their bread is always good and the bulgogi panini I had for brunch was honestly so tasty🤎 The smoky flavor was just right without being too heavy.
The macarons, donuts, and cakes all looked amazing, so I already know what I want to try next time!
The owner is also very friendly, which makes the place feel even more welcoming.
Overall, I keep coming back because it just has a really warm and delicious vibe every time. ✨

The vibe of the café is cozy, cute, and relaxing, perfect whether you want to study, read, or hang out with friends. They have a big variety of viennoiseries and pastries, and everything tastes fresh and high quality.

Their Korean style donuts are honestly the best, so soft and flavorful, and the macarons are just irresistible the cream filling is rich and delicious. They also have a turkey sandwich that’s both affordable and surprisingly filling.

The staff are always friendly and welcoming, and the place is very clean, including the washroom, which I really appreciate.

Overall, this café has amazing vibes, great food, and wonderful people. Highly recommend it for anyone who wants cute desserts, a calm atmosphere, and a genuinely pleasant experience. 💕 10/10

I really love the vibe at this place. The cafe feels warm and inviting the moment you walk in — bright, clean, and relaxing in a way that makes you actually want to slow down for a minute. The staff are always friendly and make the space feel comfortable rather than rushed.

I picked up a couple of pastries while I was there, and they were super fresh and tasted great without being overly sweet. It’s the perfect spot to sit for a bit, enjoy something good, and just take a break from the day. I always leave feeling better than when I arrived.

I love this place! I grabbed a matcha croissant, blueberry mochi cream cheese bun, and a sweet Rice twist donut, and everything was super fresh and tasted amazing. The croissant was flaky, the bun was soft and not overly sweet, and the donut was honestly one of the best I’ve had in Calgary.
