Your family or coworkers will love you when you show up with a dozen assorted!

And they have magic coffee cups, I drove 2 blocks with one on top my car and it did not spill !!!!!!

Check them out.“

“Welcome to Hazeldean! From the decor, to the lattes, to the food, to the staff, everything was fantastic during my visit. A high-end coffee was exactly what our little community needed, adding to the other wonderful local businesses we have in the area. Looking forward to many more breakfasts and brunches in the future.“

“Lovely little cafe with friendly service good coffee and AMAZING croissants. These are the best I’ve had anywhere, and I’ve spent a bit of time in Paris. Very limited seating (two stool inside and a few seats outside) but it’s a small place that knows what it does and does it well. Respect.“

“This place is amazing... must try! Best iced coffee I've ever had. You can also buy the cream from them. If you are vegan or can't eat dairy, this place is a game changer.“

“Great coffee & love their support for the community!“

“Great coffee ☕️ great food and amazing customer service. Looks like the staff actually want to be there.

Natural sunlight: so nice! ☀️

Don’t usually give reviews but this one deserved it. So good!“

“Excellent coffee shop. I can see why some people say it's their favorite coffee place in the city. Their drip coffee and latte are great. The chai is okay. The service is excellent! The worker at the counter (didn't catch her name) went above and beyond to share briefly about the history of the shop, and since I was there on my birthday, said the drink was on them! Really surprised me and made my day. Thank you! We'll be back for sure.“

“Love this please excellent coffee and great service highly recommended“

“Great cafe/restaurant on 124st, their sandwiches are delicious highly recommend the fish and their veggie sandwich/panini. Their mixed fruit juice cocktail smoothie is delicious too. The owner was nice and gave me some lentil soup while I was waiting for my takeout order. Definitely check this place out if your in the area.“

“My friend and I had high tea! The food was delicious, the service fantastic and the atmosphere very relaxing and cosy. Highly, highly recommend Cafe Bel-Air!“

“Wonderful place and great service! First we were impressed by attentive and welcoming staff. The atmosphere is very pleasant and all the desserts are very delicious! We were served by Shanu and he did great job! Definitely recommend this place“

“This place is so vibey! I came to shoot some photos at the Confusionaires album release show, and I was really drawn in to the retro decor and great sound. It made for a really fun show!“

“One of my favorite coffee shops in Edmonton. This locations proximity to the Mill Creek ravine is perfect for enjoying a leisurely river valley stroll along with a hot beverage.

In my experience, the staff are always welcoming and friendly. The cafe is often very busy so seating may be limited if visiting during a peak period.

I haven't tried the food here, but the baked treats always look delicious!“

“A friend and I went to Candid Coffee Roasters this morning and were so glad we did. I am a latte lover and had the best latte ever! Also a couple of stroopwafels. So yummy. (Be sure to have them lightly grilled.) Going back tomorrow with hubby.“

“A cute little cafe that has delicious treats and a lovely little artisan/gift gallery!“

“Very unique and authentic taste. love this restaurant. Juri such a nice hostess. My favorite lunch hangout“

“Hey now, this cafe is soooooo NAKED, I’m telling you… No, but really, this place has great cozy vibes, fabulous tea lattes made with love by Bob, and an excellent open mic every Thursday evening. Best of all is their inclusivity, in that nudity is not a requirement, which is great for me because I have never been naked (no, not even when I was born). Plus, as this is a public place, and public nudity is illegal, there’s that too. Worry not, readers, as no one here actually has their kit off, despite the name. Apologies to nudists seeking a suitable venue for their nudism.“

“I live in St.Albert but I go to Table Top because I like the setup, food and Brian (owner) and staff are fun and great at explaining the games.“

“Awesome place!“

“Had a great time here! We played Dutch Blitz, Catan, and Exploding Kittens — they’ve got a wide range of games to choose from. The staff were super friendly and helpful, and even took the time to explain the rules when we needed.

One drink per person is mandatory, but that’s fair considering how affordable the hourly game rates are. The atmosphere is awesome — well-lit, cozy, and welcoming. Good coffee, good service, and a perfect place to hang out with friends for a few hours.“

“I recommend Pact to anyone who is NOT celiac or gluten free due to allergies. But they are no longer a dedicated gluten free facility. Confirmed by restaurant themselves. "Unfortunately we are not completely gluten free anymore. after a high demand for non GF products, we have introduced a few to our cafe. We do take the sanitization of our work space very seriously."“

“Excellent coffee, pastries, sandwiches and room.“

“My first visit was a delicious experience so I will be back. Tried the burek - so good! Took a slice of carrot cake home for dessert. Seriously the best carrot cake I’ve ever had! Friendly and kind service as well!“

“An Edmonton original—creative, bright café with rich flavours, fresh baking, and a welcoming community vibe. Great for studying, meetings, or relaxing.

For a fuller picture —
Crum Coffee Bar is a true Edmonton original — bright, creative, and full of personality. The café blends art, community, and great flavour in a way you don’t see often: chalkboard walls encourage creativity, natural light fills the space, and the atmosphere supports studying (tech friendly), business meetings, or just unwinding.

Food is rich, freshly crafted, and beautifully presented, and drinks have a depth of flavour that reflects real care. Patio seating shines in the summer, and shelves of coffee gear make it easy to bring the Crum experience home.

A memorable community café that feels both fresh and familiar.

Visited summer 2025“

“Un frigen believable cups of coffee. I always buy a flat white or two & There is something sort of floating on top & I think that it’s coffee oil (& it’s never a dark roast).“

“great food and very polite and helpful staff ✊🏽“

“Staff are amazing, coffee is great, and the best dang sandwich I’ve had in a long time.“

“Today was the BEST morning of the year!! From a family member passing away, to mice noises creaking throughout the nights, and even truly understanding I dont have the support system that I thought I had.

I have been looking for a cafe to really relax and get away from my kryptonites that are bingeing Youtube and Netflix. Respire Coffeehouse not only has a Superb owner with such an amazing story that she should write books about it, but an atmosphere so inviting and welcoming. Its so unique infact that even the exterior is something you would think could only be availible in The Ice District in Downtown. A little cherry on top is that for each season, decorations are placed throughout the space, even the washrooms. I cant wait to comeback during the christmas season and see the big christmas tree I see in other peoples pictures.

I thought I would never find the perfect cafe, but I really think I have. Respire Coffeehouse hits all the right criteria: Caring Owner, Yummy Drinks, Delectible Treats, Cozy / Inclusive Environment, Free Wifi, and most of all, WALL PLUG INS I CAN PLUG MY CHARGER INTO!! (Its such a pet peeve when a cafe doesnt have any!)

Go for yourself and feel the warm welcome I recieved because there are not many places you can recieve such geniune care such as Respire Coffeehouse!

P.S. I will forever be mad at myself that I havent once visited Respire Coffeehouse in the 3 years it has been open until today.“

“This is a very clean restaurant, with friendly staff and outstanding service The food was very delicious and the portion sizes huge. Will come here again!“

“Stopped seen on TikTok to grab the smores latte iced they are amazing so good. Definitely will have to come back when we are in town.“

“Every time I have ordered from Malina the food has been amazing. I love trying new things here, I am never disappointed!“

“We popped in Krew yesterday after going to Southgate. It is inside the children's store in Lendrum Plaza. We ordered two lattes both were very good. The individual serving us was very pleasant! The atmosphere was nice, they do have limited seating which wasn't a problem for us as we were grabbing it to go.“

“Great experience, good drinks and share treats with the kitties“

“Pretty cozy place! Would sure come again! Cheers!!! Keep it up 👍“

“Just ordered the Sweet and Sour Soup and I've never tasted anything better than that! I've also had a colleague that ordered the butter chicken and it was fantastic! The thing I love about this place when the new owner took over, is he kept the American food as an option and then expanded with specialties which is obviously paying off. Amazing staff, amazing food. Keep up the good work!“

“Is a sterile looking place that also houses a pharmacy, the latte I had was standard, however the scone I indulged in was absolutely incredible. There is wifi and outlets to rejuice devices. Clean and minimalistic. I like it but it definitely lacks Hygge“

“it's been a while but this is a beautiful family run business. I love the chili dark chocolate. and the ambiance. ☕🇲🇽 looking forward to next visit“

“Hole in the wall, hidden gem. I hope you like perfectly executed short order diner cooking, and I mean perfect lol. Breakfast and lunch joint, small and cozy, best diner coffee, amazing portions for amazing prices, the list goes on. Slightly dated interior but feels homey, staff knows their regulars orders. You will definitely become a regular after your first breakfast here, especially after you see their prices. You can get a hearty filling breakfast for less than at a fast food chain.“

“Imported meats from Italy. Friendly staff. great tasting coffee.“

“Best Donair I ever had in Edmonton. very authentic taste. the meat and the Tzatziki sauce are so yummy and delicious. I wait to work close by to have a sandwich from High Voltage Donair. Toasting the sandwich is an extra plus. I am very happy every time I eat from their food. this place is a hidden Gem.“
