Located literally…read morehidden in the garden centre it was a little hard to find but I did get to take a very cool flat escalator. I forgot how many cool nich-nacks were in this store so walking through it to find a bakery was a blast. A large variety of goodies with clearly marked flavors and prices was nice to see. I ended up with a mint choc chip meringue and a caramel square. The meringue was large and impressive looking. Definitely a looker but I wish the flavor was stronger and that there were Choc chips throughout and not just on-top. It was melting your mouth as expected. The caramel square was Amazing. Soft definitely homemade caramel on-top a soft cookie crust. The proportion of cookie to caramel was spot on. I would definitely buy the Carmel on its own if that becomes an option! Definitely a great spot to kill some time or look for unique trinkets and grab a tasty snack.

Ice cold drinks. Hot coffee. Cakes and sandwiches. Pretty much everything to snack on if you forgot to pack or prepare for your visit to the zoo. I ussually come in for the air conditioning bc edmonton summer dry heat can get to you if you dont have air conditioning. The place is big and bright. Great for people watching, it was amusing watching the kids play at the fountain from here. There is an outdoor patio as well. Overall its nice to have here. Conveinent. But the coffee is made poorly and its way way way too bitter. But at least now the zoo has a decent place to get a drink or snack in a jiffy. Bonus points: this place serves beer and wine.

The cafe is also so cozy and not usually crowded unless you go during one of the nearby schools' lunch breaks. They have such a large menu of boba so everyone can find something they like, as well as daily discounts on certain items (I often go for Taro Tuesday) that helps out a lot when you're a student or just don't want to spend $8 on one drink. Overall, this place is awesome and I totally reccomend it!

The ambience is honestly beautiful, and the place itself has a lot of potential. Unfortunately,…read morethat's where the positives end. The service was awful. One of the staff members came across as demanding and constantly pressured people to buy something. My friend and I had already purchased food and wanted to share because everything was expensive, but we were basically forced to buy more. It felt less like customer service and more like being pushed into spending money. The favoritism was also impossible to ignore. I ordered a croissant and didn't receive any chips. When we asked if chips came with the order, we were told no. But the customer sitting right next to us had chips anyway. When we asked why, the only explanation we got was that they were "special." It made absolutely no sense and left us feeling singled out. A nice interior doesn't make up for rude service. The atmosphere might look welcoming, but the way customers are treated tells a completely different story. I won't be coming back, and I definitely wouldn't recommend this place unless they seriously improve how they treat people.

I specifically went to the bank to grab cash to try this place because I was excited about the variety of flavours. But just look at the photo of the menu... there were 23 flavours available, no frozen yogurt, no sherbert, no sorbet... even just regular old "Chocolate" wasn't available. I fully expected them to have a few flavours out, but over half the menu? What? If your whole schtick is to have 80 flavours perhaps you should actually have the flavours. I had the lactose free Chocolate macaroon flavour and it was good. It wasn't anything to write home about though. You're better off just going to DQ or Marble Slab where you actually get the variety that this place is advertising.

Woooo, finally a place on the west end where you can get ice cream! Okay okay, technically, you can…read morego to Pa Peterson's but if I'm heading that way, I'm going to spend my money on Cô Dô Hue. Recently opened, this is 80 Flavours second location (their original location is on the south side at 4025 Gateway Boulevard). The exact location is 159 Street and 87 Avenue on the south west corner of the street. You can't miss the massive trailer. Perfect spot to grab some ice cream after shopping at Meadowlark Mall or if you've been to the Jasper Place EPL branch. I was craving ice cream after eating dinner out on Whyte so I decided to hit up 80 Flavours on the way home. There's a small parking lot and a few benches scattered around the area but most people found a nice grassy spot on the ground to enjoy their ice creams. I made it there by 9pm and was surprised to see there was a lineup of about 10 people. Lo and behold, I bumped into a buddy of mine who just happened to show up at the same time for some late night 'cream. Small world brah. There's only one bro working the counter but he was quick. We even watched him serve a family of four around 9:30pm when he was closing down and cleaning up. Nice guy. The menu is broken into ice cream, no sugar added ice cream, frozen yogurt, sorbet and sherbet. They were out of a couple flavours when my buddy ordered which is probably frustrating for people that want to try all 80 flavours. Let's just say he's a 80 Flavours connoisseur. $4.00 for a single and $6.00 for a double, which is pretty standard fare. Trip #1 - Rocky raspberry with Saskatoon berry and hokey pokey with caramel coconut blondie ($6.00) - I went with the rocky raspberry and Saskatoon berry combo while A-town went with a hokey pokey and caramel coconut blondie combo. Mine was light, fruity and refreshing which was just what I wanted. Hit the spot. I didn't try my bud's but he couldn't figure out what hokey pokey was supposed to be. He still devoured it. Trip #2 Crispy peanut butter crunch ($4.00) and raspberry ripple with butter pecan ($6.00) Second time hitting up 80 Flavours. My friend opted for only one flavour, the crispy peanut butter crunch. It had a couple good chunks in it but our server scooped some ice chunks in it. That's a no no. Hopefully, that's just a one off. I went with the raspberry ripple and butter pecan. The pecan was the winner of the two. Smooth, flavourful without being too sweet. Excellent après dinner spot to grab dessert. Bring yo date or whomever. We'll see how long they stick around for but don't miss out on grabbing some ice cream while it's summer time. Don't forget, cash only!

Love the eclectic charm and the variety of intimate seating areas the Cafe offers. The owner, Heather, went above & beyond to make this night special for everyone attending. She is so hospitable and truly has a love for what she does, you can see it with her smile and taste it in the food & drinks her Cafe offers. We had great communication with her before and during the event, she worked with us in everyway, from the event price, to food choices & drinks, setup of event, and was extremely flexible on giving us what we wanted to make this night special. From the variety of fresh sandwiches, desserts, fruit, vegetables, and water/coffee/drink areas setup, everyone was beyond impressed. Great variety of delicious sandwiches, the lemon squares are so good here, and I highly recommend Cafe Haven's carrot cake, very flavourful, moist and it has the best icing topping it off. The food at this place is incredible and there is heart put into everything made here. Thank you Cafe Haven for the unforgettable event, and I highly recommend this Cafe for anyone needing an event location or a relaxing place to chill with a huge variety of great food & drinks.

I had a Homestead Sandwich which was served on a ciabatta bun. It was very good. My partner had the Davey Jones tuna sandwich but found that there was too much bread.

I enjoyed Cafe Haven but Columbia Coffee is just a block away so it makes for a tough choice.

I tried some kind of sweet bread and it was very tasty. I also love the little seating area outside. It's so cute. I hope this place stays open for a long time!
