Shonna and Zack!! I’ve made a wee website that’s an overview of all the things in and around Calgary that I thought may interest you for your trip! Below you’ll find a map that has everything pinned to it.
____ cafes + sweets ____
Higher Ground Cafe – Classic Calgary cafe, it’s licensed as well. Try a tea misto and try to get a window seat. One of the few cafes open late in town. Open mic on Tuesday
The Roasterie – They roast their own beans and in the summer you can order from the window. The wee plaza in front of it is always a good hang out spot
Crave Cupcakes – Local Calgary business, they sell fancy cupcakes. Their cookies are also really quite good.
CHUNK’D Cookies – it’s a NZ chain. They have giant $6 gourmet cookies.
Alforno Bakery & Cafe – Nice cafe pretty close to the river pathway
River Café – Fancy cafe in the park. Grab a spot on the patio!
Made By Marcus- Hillhurst – Local YYC company. Try one of their weird flavours!
Village Ice Cream – I love this Village ice cream ’cause it’s kind of hidden away so you have to know it’s there to go to it, fun little back street adventure
Yann Haute Patisserie – Fancy bakery with lots of super yummy treats!
