I enjoyed my experience here when I stopped in. They had vegan donuts, which were delicious (and more than one flavor!), they had many alternative milk options, which was amazing to have so many to choose from. It's very busy in this location, and staff that served us weren't all that friendly, but perhaps because they were very busy. I would still recommend this spot, delicious vegan donuts, and really great specialty drinks offered.

Service could be better, not the most friendly. I am also not a fan of places asking me to clear my table, I would assume this is part of the service I am paying for. However, the coffee was really good and so was the donut, with a lot of choices. The coffee and donut combo is a nice touch. I also enjoyed the conservatory area, nice chilled vibe, perfect for when it is raining.

I gave a 3 star overall due to unfriendly/unhelpful staff. Two individuals in particular. Two young woman, one in a dark long sleeved shirt and one in a striped red and white shirt.I came in today around 3pm for a coffee and a pastry with a friend. They were chatting happily behind the pastries, dark shirt came to the front and immediately dropped her friendly expression and avoided eye contact.I ordered a coffee and a pastry, she put it through said it'll come up on the machine and went to get my pastry. It wasn't put through, so I waited while she continued her friendly conversation with red/white shirt and got my doughnut. When she returned and realized she hadn't put it through, her expression immediately changed and it felt disingenuous.So anyway, I waited at the bar and a young woman in a green cardigan with winged earrings was making my drink. When she put it up, the flat white wasn't topped all the way up. She explained that it doesn't fit in the Togo cups, but fits the small cups and showed me the for here cup. Totally plausible, I accepted the reason.Well red/white shirt walked up to her and proceeded to coach her, advising that the milk does need to be topped all the way up. I'm literally standing in front of them during this and she doesn't once look at me or offer to fix it. So I spoke up and asked for a redoGreen cardigan said she would steam more milk and top it up. I appreciated her doing that. Of the 3 people I interacted with, she was by far the most helpful/approachable, so her service was great.As my friend and I sat with our coffees and chatted, I occasionally looked up and saw how dark shirt interacted with other customers, and her demeanor was inconsistent with them as well. If someone is having an off day, perhaps they shouldn't be the first point of contact.The coffee/pastry/atmosphere were just fine, but I don't feel encouraged to come back.

I've enjoyed 49th parallel coffee lots of times but this was my first time actually visiting the Cafe! (I'm from Alberta). Such a trendy and bright space, delicious lattes and so many options for vegan baked goods! I got an almond milk latte and vegan banana bread on my way to the airport and I will most definitely be back! Perfect latte and super fresh baked goods, I wish you had a location in Edmonton!5 happy coffee-fueled stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Vegetarian options: Lots of vegan donut flavors and several non-dairy milk options to choose from.
