“Stopped in at The Koffee Cafe and had one of the best London Fogs I’ve ever tasted. Perfectly balanced, rich, and silky with just the right hint of vanilla — it’s the kind of drink that makes you slow down and actually enjoy the moment.

The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with plenty of space to sit, chat, or get some work done. You can tell the staff take pride in every cup they make, and that attention to detail shows from the first sip to the last.

If you’re a tea lover or just looking for a cozy spot with top-tier drinks in Edmonton, The Koffee Cafe is absolutely worth the visit.

“I love coming to this cafe. Whether I decide to have food from their kitchen, a ready to go pastry, or a drink, I know that it's going to be made with care. It gets a little busy around lunch, I wish it was bigger, but it's a wonderful space. The staff are amazing, and it's fun to chat with them when they're less busy. They're very kind and all very good at their jobs. Definitely one of my favourites in the city for sure!“

“Quaint little cafe Northside of Edmonton. It's cute space and staff were very friendly. Coffee was delicious (ordered a cappuccino) and their Brekky sandwich was also great. So happy to have a local spot nearby us, will definitely be back and letting people know about this spot.“

“Mokha Coffee House lives up to its name — bright, warm, and full of life. A welcoming Yemeni-inspired space with great drinks, local baked goods, and friendly staff. Cozy corners, greenery, and natural light make it perfect for conversation or quiet time.

–– For those who enjoy more detail: ––

Bright, sunny, and alive with greenery, Mokha Coffee House offers a welcoming space that blends a unique Yemeni cultural touch with modern warmth — the name fits the space perfectly. The décor, live plants, and thoughtful layout create distinct experiences in every corner: the quiet intimacy of the loft, the cozy restaurant section with its private nooks, and the four-walled glass room surrounded by light and foliage.

Drinks are crafted with care — the Spanish Latte (quarter sweet), the chai-spiced Adani tea, and the smooth, rich coffee all stand out. Most of the baked goods are made in-house, and those that aren’t are baked locally in Edmonton — a lovely nod to community pride. Friendly staff elevate the experience even further, offering samples like Adani tea to welcome guests. During warmer months, the outdoor courtyard and water feature add to the uplifting atmosphere, making the café both grounding and inspiring.“

“Wow, fabulous desserts: a good as being in France, without the airfare.“

“My favourite place with delicious sweets! The perfect place to treat yourself 💯“

“Visited for the first time as part of the CoffeePass program. The cafe is very pretty and is a nice place to sit and relax. I had a flat white that was super tasty and exactly the way I like it. The star of the show, however, was their cruffins. Absolutely delicious and jam packed with a cream filling. I had a salted caramel one while my partner had pistachio. I will def be back to try the other flavours...well worth the trip!“

“Leonardo is the backbone of this community it seems. Super friendly, knows me and my mom, truly goes the extra mile. You can tell that it's run by someone who truly cares about running a quality place with amazing coffee and delicious sandwiches. 10/10“

“Yesterday was my first time visiting this place since moving from Vancouver to Griesbach, and both the Biscoff cake and the latte were absolutely amazing. A young man took my order, and he was so kind with excellent service. Experiencing this kind of hospitality, which is rare to see in Edmonton, will definitely make me want to come back again. Keep up the great work🙌🏻“

“Beans List is hands down the best coffee shop! The staff here are amazing, you can truly tell they pour their heart into everything they do. All their drinks are incredible, and the warm, friendly atmosphere makes it the perfect spot to grab a cup. Definitely the best place on campus!“

“Tried their food at the Taste of Edmonton and absolutely loved the meatball lollipops so much, we had to sample everything! First time trying baklava and it was delicious“

“Came across this when visiting Canada Place. It's towards the back of the food court, so a little hidden. Was greeted by the owner as I walked by. He politely introduced all the pizzas that were on display. If a full individual size ($8.95) is too much for you, they do offer a half portion ($5.00), which I chose. It was hot , fresh , and delicious. The owner was very pleasant and friendly. Great price for downtown office building. Highly recommend.“

“I like the friendliness here, and the service. I enjoy the variety of food here, and I had many different items, more than any other place. When I am not sure what I want, staff are eager to make suggestions, and I have never been disappointed. Lattes are $5, hard to find lattes for that price in this neighbourhood. Somewhat higher prices, but good-sized servings to match.Only two tables, and chairs at the bar but the manager introduces people to each other and they can sit together. I have met a lot of people here.Favourites are the soups and wraps.Try the tuxedo cookies- a real treat!“

“Amazing coffee with incredible service and food🥰“

“Great ambiance, great food and great drinks. There is a great vibe when you come. This coffee bar is attached to Italian Centre we came for lunch and really enjoyed our pizza and panini’s. Part of the coffee shop and Italian store is a fantastic bakery. My wife and I along with our son and parents really loved the he coffee shop. There is difficulty finding a parking spot but when you do you won’t be disappointed. We will return again“

“I would like to share my experience of great service I received at deli department. There is a selection of cured and smoked meats & sausage. It happen that mostly I had been served by Mykola. He helps me so quickly by describing meat product and providing a sample. So, I always buy what I like atmost the taste of dried cured meat that sliced very thinly and simply melt in the mouth. Mykola is always polite and attentive. He is able to vacuum seal it, so, it can last longer in the fridge or freezer. Definitely, he provides an excellent customer service.“

“Amazing food, great atmosphere and kind and prompt staff!“

“Take out Christmas dinner was excellent“

“The one and only complaint I have is that they sell decaf. Bonnie saved my life today. I switched our subscription temporarily as we were going through more than usual, and when I switched back I somehow chose decaf. Decaf!?! It just isn't sustainable make-go juice. I emailed right away to see if we could exchange it after it arrived, but Bonnie managed to switch it out for me just in the much of time before Canada Post got there. Life. Saver. Ever since we've started using Transcend beans, other coffees just don't taste the same. It's definitely the favorite in this home. I haven't had a roast I don't like yet!“

“When for lunch with two friends. Had there Bison Burger and fries . It all was fantastic will be back“

“Great organzation to network with aspirational women especially if you're a goal-oriented immigrant woman“

“Super reasonable prices and friendly people. Kale salad is delicious (love the dressing!). I love the snack box because it's like charcuterie for lunch and the vegan cheese is SO GOOD (I am not vegan...it is THAT tasty!) I love the chill vibes - you can order a coffee and hang out all day on your lap top and it's all good.“

“my husband and I have been craving a good portuguese chicken restaurant place since we got to Edmonton in 2022 and we finally got a chance to try this place and OMG! it's not good..... it's absolutely amazing!!! we can't wait to come back!“

“I've been here 3 times while visiting Edmonton over the last few months. I have always had a great time, good music, good vibe. Doesn't get super packed which like, you can always find somewhere to sit or hang out without feeling squashed. Will definitely come back next time I'm in Edmonton!“

“I love this cafe! The staff are so personable - they remembered my name from early on and always greet me by name, all the food and treats are homemade, and they have the most delicious drinks! I would highly recommend this place for anyone in the area wanting lunch, coffee, or a sweet treat!“

“Well, I gotta say. Was a pinch skeptical about getting a Donair here. I had a preconceived notion about what I was about to eat.Lemme tell ya. The Donair I had ranks right up there. Nice portion (for me). Nice spice and moist meat … dam, that was a good Donair and I consider myself a Donair guy.Employees were top notch as well. Very niceI’ll definitely hit this place up again if I’m ever in the neighbourhood.“
