    Default Coffee shop in NW - Not Starbucks

    Looking for a good place for coffee in the NW, around the Royal Oak/Rocky Ridge/Tuscany area. Not really wanting to go to Starbucks or Good Earth. Needs to be open on Saturday afternoons.

    Closest thing out that way I can think of are Lazy Loaf and Cadence. Neither of which are that close to there unfortunately.

    Or Cochrane LOL

    Cafe Fresco in Royal Oak? Never been there but that's one non-chain cafe in the area. It's right by the Church up the hill from Tuscany/Rocky Ridge Station. You can let me know how it is.

    Are you looking for good coffee, or a good meeting/workspace with wifi?
    I can eat more hot wings than you.

    I haven't been there in about 6 months, but Friends Cappuccino Bar in Edgemont had pretty decent coffee -- 45 Edenwold Dr NW #104

    Cafe fresco. It's good.

    If you don't mind Cochrane, they have Cochrane Coffee Traders, Legacy and The Gentry. All are great.

    I used to work next to it. This was way before good coffee was a thing. That place ruined my ability to drink bad coffee.

    Euphoria cafe sounds like the winner! Definitely going to try this place next time.

    Doing a little work from Cafe Fresco this morning. Nice place, lots of natural light. If you need a little booze in the morning they also serve Kahlua, Baileys, or beer. I just went with a latte. Looks good, although no art in the foam. Also two dudes working here, so I decided to forego my normal flirting with the barista. Your mileage may vary.

    Was in Calgary a week ago and tried Euphoria Cafe. Great little coffee place - plus they serve waffles, so
