I was so excited to try out this place, and it was a huge disappointment. We were there during Valentine's weekend. First of all we walked in and had no idea what to do.( do we order, and carry our own stuff? Do we sit down and order?)

Bread is good. Been buying at Safeway. I was however surprised and disappointed when I noticed the size of the loaf this morning was much smaller. I looked at the label and saw it has gone down from 850g to 650g (almost a quarter less) for the same price (so 24% price increase).

The Uprising Bake Shop + Espresso Bar, also known as The Lounge at The Uprising, is a charming coffee shop off the main street in Canmore. They offer a variety of options, from decaf coffee to ham and cheese croissants, as well as house-baked goods like apple strudel and an amazing 80% Rye Bread. The service is noted to be exceptional, with staff going the extra mile to warm up treats and plate them beautifully. Customers have enjoyed the food, including fabulous cappuccinos and lattes, and many have praised the avocado toast as possibly the best they have ever had. The atmosphere is welcoming and aesthetically pleasing, featuring a beautiful two-story layout, fresh-looking furniture, and plenty of beautiful plants. There is outside seating along with an upstairs sitting area that offers a lovely view. The washroom is very clean, and while some customers found certain staff members to be less friendly, the overall experience has been positive, with the coffee and food receiving high marks. While there are critiques on specific dishes like pizza, with comments on the crust and dough being amazing but preparation needing improvement, the potential for greatness is clear. This spot is highly recommended for anyone looking for a delightful café experience in Canmore.
