Closed for winter closure, will open again for the spring semester
A great spot on campus to both catch up with friends as well as study. Being inside ENR2 gives the whole area a serene, relaxing vibe. There is ample seating area, all maintained very well and clean. The university WiFi has strong signal inside the cafe as well, so no interruption to work at all.
Limited options on menu but all are reasonably priced (compared to other places on campus). Service was excellent, the sandwich was very tasty😋. Definitely a spot I’ll frequent the rest of my time at UofA.

Great place to study with a view of plants, coffee is fairly cheap and there are very good (but expensive) pastry and sandwich. Also sells preprepared student union sushi and some of the preprepared stuff from the on campus markets (these studrnt union sandwiches in the open fridge are gross. The display ones behind the glass are good).

The coffee is excellent and the staff is friendly. However, the noise level from the employees is uncomfortably high. Even though they are only a few feet apart, they tend to shout personal conversations that you can hear across the café, making it difficult to enjoy the atmosphere.

My coffee was great!
Slot Canyon was okay before its closure. It wasn’t the greatest but it got the job done. Somehow they have managed to get worse with their new reopening.
The coffee itself is average. The sandwiches and pastries are the saving grace. Any drink ordered outside of coffee is guaranteed to be a train wreck. Their chai latte has zero flavor - you are paying $4 for a cup of milk. There are no smoothies available yet - their machine is still “out.”
Today I ordered an earl grey latte - hot water, milk, & a tea bag in a cup. A few minutes after taking my order, the worker walked up to me and asked if I wanted milk or just the tea. I politely asked for milk, as I had ordered. Another few minutes and another worker tells me they are out of the tea bags. I told them it was fine, I would choose another one. They brought their selection over & had two different choices of earl grey available; they were trying to make my tea with English breakfast, even though that’s not what I ordered.
In the end I got my drink, though I feel that it’s pretty hard to mess up a 3 ingredient drink & a little odd that I had to answer questions every step of the way. Perhaps better training is needed for the new staff.

Cute cafe, great service but sooo expensive and the dirty chai was way too sweet and didn’t have any coffee flavor
GREAT STAFF!
Very good place and good taste
Limited selection, but quick. Coffee drinks good. Relaxed atmosphere,.
They have lots of seating options. And they stock breakfast and lunch foods. I always order a hot chai latte, and they are always delicious.
