We had a fantastic experience at Communitea Café during recent trip to Banff / Canmore! We always lookout for places that offer tasty, plant-based options — and this café was a great find. We had bowls, sandwich, soup of the day and coffee. We liked the food, and the atmosphere is warm, and welcoming.

The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed — a nice spot for a late morning meal. Service was pleasant and the staff were friendly and attentive.
The food was just okay overall. Nothing particularly memorable or unique. One downside was the sourdough bread — it was really hard. Biting into it actually hurt my gums, which definitely took away from the experience.
On the bright side, the drinks were quite good. Both the coffee and the hot chocolate were well made, flavorful, and comforting — probably the highlight of the meal.
In summary, it’s an alright place if you’re not expecting too much. Great drinks, decent service, but the food (especially the bread) could use some improvement.

Have visited several times when in Canmore. Convenient location with street parking. Food is vegetarian and plant based. Love the vibe. Place is bright and clean. Order at the counter and they bring your food to you. Lots of tasty options but love the grilled cheese and soup combo. Tasty popcorn on the side. Takeout available. Worth stopping in.

Love the food here. Great vibe. It’s my go to place in Canmore - especially for healthy alternatives. Service can be slow coming out of the kitchen, so just good to know you will need patience. But a direct correlation to quality in sure.

I loved this place! Most of the menu is or can be made vegan, they have a few options with meat so it’s a great choice for eating out with non-vegans. They have a huge tea collection that is super cool, and the cafe has a very nice vibe. I got the vegan burrito which was 10/10

Real food ?! Super healthy and so many options. Turmeric tonic tea is absolutely delicious. Consistently great food and service too. Needs 10 stars ?
I wanted to update this review to say their breakfast menu is ? amazing... It's worth a trip no matter your diet but their vegan options are outstanding.

Selection of tea. Few desserts. Tried their lunch menu before and it's really good!
Been here every time I'm in Canmore. Really great food, tons of vegetarian/vegan options, fresh food, and healthy to boot!
Will continue visiting every time I'm back in town.

Came for a few coffees.
Place is busy but not loud/noisy. Good vibes. Menu is great for vegan options!
The bean water is nice. I personally cannot do black anymore, so I couldn't tell you the finer bean details, but I didn't feel the price point was too high for the quality.
Connie was very sweet and offered to top up my thermos with the extra milk she steamed. Also helped grab some hot water despite her busy running around the entire time I was there. 10/10 service, hard working, and makes a great cuppa ??. Made my morning.

Absolutely delicious. Had the vegan breakfast panini 'VLT' and have been thinking of it ever since. Nice vibe, friendly service. Definitely recommend.
