Reviews for Angel's Cafe in Calgary, AB
Visited here with friends today. Only stopped here before for icecream so decided to try some food. Ordered the beef burger with... fries. Totally excellent food and atmosphere. The staff are great although run off there feet. Lineup was out the door. Shelfpacked tons of board and card games. Don't miss this place next to the Bow River. Read more
I just stumbled across this little gem on the Bow River bike path after a nearby appointment! Great setting, friendly service... and delicious tomato basil soup! The only bad thing was the soup bowl was a bit too deep to lick it clean????! I?ll beback!???????? Read more
Great place on the river, taking a break from a bike ride and ordered a little snack. Ordered some ciders and pop floats. ... Ordered hot dogs and smokies. And some fries as well. Great little place and patio to relax and take a break from a walk orbike ride. Friendly staff as well. Would definitely come back. I believe it's a family owned and operated business Read more
Cozy café. Love the patio! Beautiful scenery! Friendly staff. I really enjoyed the soup! While we sat on the patio, the Café... has board games. The relaxing environment makes for a great place to spend an afternoon or evening playing games and having ameal or snack. While, as a wheelchair user I'm glad there is a ramp, unfortunately I did not see it readily coming from theparking lot - it is further back from the parking lot next to the river pathway. It would be helpful to have a sign by theparking lot pointing to the ramp and it would be helpful if the first two parking spots would be marked as accessible parking.The only marked accessible spots are by the access to the river pathway at the other end of the parking lot. Those are good forthe walkway but additional spots by the door would be helpful. I was able to use the stairs and walk in with my cane because Igot a parking spot near the door. Read more
After moving across town 4 years ago to a new ?hood after 30 years, I found a new weekend refuge in this wonderful, welcoming... little haven of well-prepared food, authentic connection, and fantastic live, collaborative music. Cathy and her dedicated crewhave created a well-loved community hub, whether it be supplying seniors and Ronald McDonald House with home-cooked,volunteer-delivered meals, or just a caring ear and that one place where you truly feel included. The magical deck overlookingthe river is always my first pick when someone asks me, ?Where should we go eat?? ?? Read more
Angel's Café is an amazing place with lots of room inside and a patio with several patio heaters outside. The service was... prompt and very courteous with a great selection on the menu such as drinks, baked goods, frozen treats, ice creams, as well asfresh cooked food and meals. It was nice they had menus near the door which you could look at before getting up to order whichkeeps the line-up moving. Every time I've been there it has been a bustle of people coming and going and always some friendlystranger there to have a chat with and network. My favourite has always been the spicy chicken sandwich loaded with lots offresh shredded cheese, cucumbers and lettuce with a choice of two different sauces. It is great for when I have to keep drivingand don't have time to sit especially when I'm carrying on to Banff for a day hike. The last couple times there I had a baconcheese burger which was hot and fresh and the bun was soft and fresh also. I was so happy that it wasn't one of those storebought dried out burgers that a lot of burger joints serve. It was actually a great hand made fresh juicy burger! The last timeI was there they had a special on chicken wings and I ordered a poutine to go with it. Both of the items were super steaming hotthat I had to let cool a bit before eating which I loved! And the wings had the right amount of sauce with a great taste and nottoo sweet and they mixed my up the hot and bbq sauce just right, and the gravy is that thick rich flavour kind. I've been heremany times over the past several years and even though I don't live in Calgary anymore it is my one guaranteed stop on mybusiness trips. And always amazed that no matter how busy the restaurant is that the washrooms and tables are always superclean. Many garbage and recycle bins available for self disposal but rarely get a chance to use as the staff is continuallywandering through making sure everyone is happy and tables are clean. Glad that they have been doing their Read more
Came here to try out their brunch menu. We were here on January 2 but they were closed for the holidays. We called ahead to... make sure they were open this time. This is a cozy cafe where you feel like home and can come to hang out with families orfriends. They even have board games on the shelves. Too bad their dining room is currently closed. At the front, you can finditems for sale made by locals such as baby blankets, etc. It shows the cafe has a big heart in helping other local smallbusinesses. We ordered a smashed avocado marble rye toasts and a breakfast wrap to share. The staff were very friendly and thefood was good. They packed our boxes for sharing so we had half of the each item in the boxes. Both the toasts and wrap tastedfresh and filled with flavours. Contrary to a previous review, all their staff followed health protocols. Proud to support alocal business with friendly staff. Take care. We will see you again. Read more
A special evening with Mary and Dave singing popular songs from Frank Sinatra to Buffalo Springfield in such a beautiful setting... as Angel's Café! The patio is fully covered with heaters so you can enjoy a great private concert in the Fall. The intimatesetting is a great background for meeting with friends and enjoying each other's company. The Chili Nachos were delicious! Nexttime I will take the time to unwind and play some board games. Read more
