    Lemon poppyseed loaf, blueberry white chocolate scone, lavender latte, cherry tea
    Audrey L.

    Really solid coffee shop! It's super cute inside and they have local art/things to buy. They have a good menu selection but we just stopped in for coffee and pastries. The scone was delish- the flavor particularly. Also would recommend a loaf cake- perfectly moist! They don't use homemade coffee flavors, but the coffee itself has a great taste. Their teas are cool too, it's like a fresh homemade concentrate

    Got breakfast burrito on my way back to Calgary from Banff NP. Food was good and came out really hot. Coffee had no sour flavor which I liked.

    I ordered a flat white, iced latte and coconut cream matcha. All 5/10, busy should not affect quality. Skip the latte and just get pastries. We had the brownie, banana choc muffin and ham / cheese croissant. Average 7.5/10.

    Great place to enjoy coffee and pastries. The breakfast sandwich was ok. Coffee no doubt was awesome. Long lines, but they love quite fast. You'll have to pay for parking so be prepared

    Almond croissant and apple pie cinnamon oat tea latte
    Evan C.

    Really nice little cafe with excellent pastries. I had the almond croissant. Crispy with tons of almonds and a decent almond flavour. The almond paste is to die for - clearly amongst the best. Sweet and rich but not too sweet. Clearly they bake it themselves and it's very substantial. I tried the apple pie cinnamon oat tea latte. Yes the name is a mouthful. It is an amazing drink. Wonderful taste! Good place to stop by and hang out in the morning. Not crowded and people are just hanging out on their laptops etc.

    Employees were nice. There was a bit of a wait when we got here. I got the Peppermint Mocha Latte. Coffee taste is strong. The peppermint wasn't enjoyable for me. Not enough sweetness to counteract the bitterness. I would not get this drink again. The latte art is pretty. There's a lot of merch to peruse if you're interested.

    Croissant was amazingly buttery and the sourdough loafs were so fragrant and tasty. I bought one unsliced loaf to take home to the states as a souvenir of sorts but it was so tasty my friends and I tore at it and ate half of it in merely one car ride to Lake Louise. I went back in the afternoon to get a replacement loafs but all the unsliced loafs were already sold it! Lesson learned ~ but I bought a sliced on to take back and it was still tasty. Lines are long but move fast. It's a bit hectic inside during rush hour since space can be cramped but the outdoor seating is good too if you don't mind the magpies stealing your drinks.

    Banana croissant

    The line here is long, but it moves at a decent pace. Their items are extensive and kind of pricey, but they do seem very high quality. I tried their banana croissant which looked like a pain suisse. It had fresh banana slices and cream inside, within a nice buttery pastry. It was quite good!

    Good service and great lattes. Got the breakfast sandwich and the bread was so perfectly toasted. Paired perfectly with the softer egg plus the white mocha latte I got. It was a perfect little breakfast for me before I head over to lake louise.

    Chai Latte
    Navdha V.

    Service: sweet, authentic, sincere Ambiance: casual and caring Food: ahhhh so gooooood 1) Chai latte: served in a huge orange cup and saucer. Amazing with a cinnamon-hint 2) Breakfast Sandwich: extremely filling, generous portion of egg, bread was fresh and delightful, with a tomato chutney that wasn't perfect not too sour or sugary. 3) Yogurt, Granola & Berry Compote: Refreshing and light, compote was tart, sweet and fresh tasting, granola crunch was awesome! 4) Cold Pressed Juice: Apple Rhubarb, Lemon, Ginger one: I loveeeeeeee this! We'll be in Banff for a few more days and I'm coming here without family so I can peacefully enjoy everything once again.

    Cappuccino

    Came here for a coffee and breakfast to start off our day in Banff. The pastries here are really amazing! We had a few different varieties, I liked everything from their muffins to their scones. They have a great variety of options and their bread is second to none. The coffee on the other hand was just okay. We got a cappuccino and while it was decent it definitely could have been made a bit better. Still recommend this place. It's a cool cafe with seating inside and outdoors and a good option for breakfast in Banff. Service was good but did forget one of our pastries ln the second visit.

    The white chocolate mocha was not sweet but not too bitter either. I love the latte art. We asked them what their most popular drink was and they said the caramel latte. There's a lot of tables indoors. The staff was very friendly.

    In Banff for a couple of days. Took some time to stroll through the mainstreet area of town. Lots of cute shops and restaurants. The place was busy, and very hot. I mean super, uncomfortable HOT. My spouse had to wait outside before they over heated. Lots of yummy looking bakery items. They also were selling some packaged chocolate bars, which looked interesting, so I got a couple of those. Looking for an unsweetened ice tea, and all they had was made up sweet teas. The suggestion was to get a tea, steep it, and pour it over ice. That was okay, but not as good (or cold) as what might have been cold steeped in a large container. Not sure if this is a place that I would return to.

We ordered to share: Bison carpaccio: 8/10, the large pieces of black salt(?) was overwhelming the bison, but otherwise very unique and worth trying Burrata salad: 100/10, super refreshing and unique palate of thinly ribboned squash covered with tarragon vinaigrette and burrata. Smoked trout doughnut: 8/10, interesting combination of sweet (donut, lemon glaze) and savory (smoked trout, herbed Crème Fraîche, everything bagel seasoning, pickled shallot) Individually: Strip sirloin: I didn't have this one but 10/10 for work of art presentation. Huge piece of steak though. Roasted chicken: 9/10 myself and one other got the chicken. Tender and well seasoned with sweet and spicy harissa honey glaze and chili crisps. It looked like they gave half a whole chicken to her and the other half to me, huge portions. Probably could've been 3 meals. Peyto's ribs: 9/10 had to get it for the touch of maple paprika. Seared ling cod: 9/10 it's the only portion that remotely made sense for a single person and didn't end with leftovers. The dimly lit atmosphere at Brazen is perfect to unwind in after a long day of hiking and exploring. The portions are generous and flavor profile recommendations between appetizers, mains, and drinks well explored. Highly recommend making an advance reservation to try!

The steak was truly the best steak I have ever had and it paired so nicely with the eggs. This is my husband's first time trying poutine and I think this really was a great first poutine for him.

I can definitely feel a little bit intimidating by the people who obviously enjoy a nice alcoholic beverage in the morning, but the server was amazing and made us feel super comfortable very quickly.

We then shared a Waldorf salad, which was refreshing and nice. Then we both selected red wine varietals grown in Canada. I had a Cabernet/Merlot blend which was super great. Would've never guessed it was from Canada. Next, My wife enjoyed a Pinot Noir that was light and complimented our entrée perfectly. Our entrée was the fillet and prawns served over a garlic mashed potato. This is an absolutely extraordinary dish. We shared it and it was just enough for two people. It is a full meal for one person. The filet temperature preparation was perfect. The prawns were extraordinary, and the garlic mashed potato made you curl your toes! Then we closed the evening with the melted chocolate soufflé, which was divine. Here's the one thing that they missed and to me it's an important miss. They use an automated system for taking reservations. And it kept asking for my name to which I said "Chris" and the automated system kept asking me what's your name!? So it asked hey fourth time and in my frustration I got playful and I said "Big Daddy." And it happily received my name and took my reservation. And then asked if there was any special occasion and I said yes my wife and I are celebrating our anniversary. I get that it may not seem normal to say "Big Daddy party for two". So I'll kind of let that pass because neither front door or upstairs Host was willing to ask. But what I don't like that was missed was our anniversary wasn't acknowledged. I was a server for years, and every host gave the server some type of chit or note to let them know if there is a special occasion. We specifically selected a higher end restaurant for anniversary. So somewhere in there, even if you weren't brave enough to say "Big Daddy for two." Someone still should've checked if you were celebrating any special occasion to which we were. Our anniversary. Our server was fabulous. She was super kind helpful and shared about her experience being in Banff. She made us feel great. My overall experience, the Mapleleaf is a great restaurant. But I'm scoring you an A- because you missed our anniversary. and that's why we chose you. So if you're going to use AI, you can't miss special occasions. Chris & Trisha from Long Beach, CA
