The buns are 1.75 + tax but right now they're 15% off so 1.50 each. I got a curry beef bun. Bun was soft and the curry beef inside was legit curry tasting beef.

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED!!…read more Disappointing first experience. I ordered three bags of espresso but received only two. Although all three items were marked as shipped on the packing slip, the La Laguneta espresso was missing from the shipment. I contacted the business on August 21, the day my order arrived, and followed up four times--three emails and one phone message. By August 29, I still had not received a response or any resolution. Mistakes can happen, but the lack of communication and accountability was extremely frustrating. I specifically ordered three different varieties because this was my first purchase and I wanted to try each one before deciding whether to order again. I had hoped to support a local business, but this experience has made me question whether future orders would be handled reliably. I am giving the business only a couple more business days to ship the missing bag or refund the charge for the product I did not receive. If the issue is not resolved within that time, I will dispute the charge for the unfulfilled portion of the order with my credit card company. An incomplete order should have been a simple matter to correct, but the lack of response has made it unnecessarily difficult.

Right on Memorial Drive, so it is extremely convenient when I am heading out of downtown via Edmonton Trail. 2. Staff are friendly 3. Quality is consistent with other Starbucks Room for Improvement 1. The parking lot is shared with Esso and it is an accident waiting to happen. There are cars coming and going through 2 entrances, and people are jonesing to get out of there once they have their gas and/or coffee. It is deadlocked due to the traffic to exit this establishment 2. On the date that I was there (April 20, 2011), there was an issue with the drive though. The mic and speaker were not working correctly, so the barista was having an impossible time hearing me. On the flipside, they were tough to hear too. Quite walky-talky-ish. So.... 5 stars... 5 comments. 3 were positive, 2 were suggestions.... so... 3 out of 5 for this location for me.

The first time I went, there was a trainee barista which was very kind and patient but unfortunately they don't do pour overs anymore - when I pressed them about it, the reason was Covid. I'm not sure what covid has to do with anything since it's a pretty easy thing to keep on the side with low operating cost (I have one at home - total cost about $80) I ended up getting the drip coffee which was quite delicious- they were serving an Ethiopian origin coffee which was bright, fruity, floral but quite acidic. The next day I went back and met another barista who was clearly not interested in being there and was making conversation with another customer about how he hated Calgary and wished he never moved here (apparently from vancouver). While I can understand his sentiment being from Calgary myself and then moving away, it's not really a great way to start the day. The negativity was filling the air. He seemed like a knowledgeable enough guy but I don't think I'll go back if he's there. I ended up getting a bag of the Ethiopian coffee and I'll just make it myself when I get home If you're looking for a place to get a great cup of coffee and go, then definitely check this place out but don't expect to leave feeling energized by the environment. 4/5 bc the coffee and donuts are delicious
