Neighbour Coffee - Altadore — Restaurant in Calgary

Tried this place several times and each time the service was awful. Feel like I’m interrupting their day coming in. No hellos, no smiles, no thank-yous. I went on and on the last time I brought my neighbour about the beef broth. We went in and that particular day it was not good. But the service was already so bad I didn’t even bother to mention it and left the cup three-quarters full. Pretty pricey considering I spent $5.00 on it. And to not get a stamp on my card after spending nearly $30.00 for the two of us because we didn’t have a coffee with our order is ludicrous! Even my friend mentioned if the three people in that day don’t like their jobs, don’t work there! Won’t be back. I even drove there from the other side of Crowchild three times because I liked the food and bragged about the place. Ended up looking like a fool. Tried to call but alas to their convenience they have no phone. Now I know why! So many other places to go. My new fave: Distilled in Marda Loop. Now their food and service is TOP NOTCH! Like they say with NHBR’s like you who...

Super sunny and cozy cafe, with a huge variety for the menu. It’s definitely priced quite well and their coffee is bold and strong.

I wouldn’t recommend getting what I ordered this time around though. The ricotta toast felt quite unbalanced- way too much ricotta. But maybe that’s a personal preference? It looked pretty but I don’t think it came together as a dish.

I also tried their yyc hot chocolate fest submission: campfire hot chocolate. Order without salt!!!!! It was way too overpowering and I got a mouthful of just salt. Definitely not a good experience. Also, the chocolate wasn’t well incorporated, had some chunks. Lastly, it seems like they added graham cracker crumbs, if you’re somebody who hates that ‘cookie fell in my drink and is now lumpy dough at the bottom of my cup’ vibe, you won’t like this. But I will say that they nailed the smoky component. Campfire...

The Altadore location has a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere! I often come here to do work over lunch and coffee. TBH, it feels like I'm on vacation with all the natural light and lush plants in the atrium. It's true! Come see for yourself - but be aware there is limited seating inside. Luckily they have a gorgeous little patio outside, canopied by trees to accommodate overflow for the warmer months.

The coffee/drinks are consistent and delicious. I will say that Neighbour's food is their strong point! My favourites right now are, the Avo toast, Avo Sesame Bowl & Tandoori Chicken Salad. It's next level guys! My weakness though? The soft serve! I was addicted to their mango tajin...flavours change frequently though so try feature soft serve while you can! UHG.... I'm basically begging this place to take my money. LOL I have yet to be disappointed with my...
