Sierra Cafe Inc.

Maaaan! I've been to many many local coffee shops in Calgary, and this place has the tastiest food.

Great coffee, too. You won't be disappointed here.

Decent amount of plugs, good wifi, super friendly staff.

I recommend

Came here for a lunch, second time. Great atmosphere and vibe, very clean with adequate seating inside. Staff are very friendly and helpful and the coffee here is amazing. However the food is very subpar and expensive for what you get. For 4 people, it was over $100 for lunch including coffees for everyone. The Poke bowl which is supposed to be one of the most popular didn't deliver. While the veggies were fresh, the sauce was very meh and the rice was extremely undercooked, so inedible I unfortunately had to send it back. Staff were kind to replace it with another option. Knocked off one star for the expensive food and bad poke but otherwise great place for coffee!

Home owned and family run. You got it right. The ideal place for a coffee and meetup or just sit with your lap top and enjoy the buzz. All 5's.

Excellent find. Went for the first time yesterday. Coffee is great - and coffee at a coffee shop has to be good. Had a cookie, which was also good and other food I spied on other plates looked worth trying too.

Their Chai Latte is waaaaay better than Starbucks!

Just wanted to say.make sure you check out local cafés on your own.there are lots of people who purposely give bad reviews.don't know why but it will be a mystery.
But this place is great!

So far, I have had 2/2 amazing experiences! The breakfast sandwich is 10/10 and please do not forget to get a iced mocha - one of the best I’ve had! Will be back!

Fantastic food, great ambiance. Lots of outlets for charging laptops, so it’s a super underrated place to study or get work done!

Highly recommended.
Lovely cozy place with unique coffee.
Super friendly staff.
Hats off.

I come here weekly either for my own coffee or our teacher batch or the coach coffee run. The coffee is so smooth and everything is so balanced. It is my go-to for coffee meetings or lunch dates.

Fantastic cafe, we live in the deep se and drive up occasionally for coffee here. In addition to great coffee and food, they have a fantastic vibe with a friendly team.

Nice environment, good selection on menu fast service even when really busy. They also have outdoor seating. Will come back when warmer to try outside seats.

We’ve been a few times and it is a delightful neighbourhood coffee spot. The almond croissant was amazing.

My go to place for coffee/teas, and they have great food options for lunch and breakfast. They also have a patio.

Hi great place very good coffee, did not have orange juice which I like with my morning coffee, but said would have some tomorrow,

THE BEST! I’ll admit it. I’m addicted. I go to sleep dreaming of my morning coffee run. The staff are super friendly, the goodies are delicious, and for you dairy free peeps, the macadamia nut milk is where it’s at.

Good coffeeshop. I wish if they offer longer hours like open a little later in the evening as well. Located very close to North Glenmore Park which is a big plus.

I've been back a few times because their staff is so wonderfully friendly and always ready to recommend something if I can't make up my mind. I'm really sad their Spring Specials are gone but their London fog is always delicious!

They aren't the cheapest place, but you'll definitely get quality drinks and service! Don't forget to grab a stamp on their loyalty card if you do grab a drink cuz you'll definitely be going back!

Great coffee, amazing food, nice patio and the aesthetics are amazing inside and out. Hope one day the patio is open evenings during the summer for beers

Always consistent! Food and coffees. Love their beans for my French press too. #1 place for me.

I was going for a walk at North Glenmore park and stopped in this lovely little gem. I had the most amazing macadamia milk London fog and a delicious blueberry sour cream muffin! Will definitely be recommending Sierra to my friends. The staff were full of smiles and took great care of me. I will be back!

Love this place, it's so needed! The breakfast and lunch items are awesome! The only reason I dropped a star is that I've found the coffee the guy who works there makes is not good, it's watered down. So I probably go half as much as I would otherwise go, just because of him. Let that guy go, and keep all the women, they make way better coffee!

Absolute neighbourhood gem! Fantastic coffee, great pastries (pretty sure they are made in house) and top notch service. The menu is small but offers a great selection. If they have Cheese & Jalapeño scones - do yourself a favour and get one. My parents loved them so much that they took 2 more to go.

Best cafe in Calgary! Coffee is fresh and delicious, and the food is to die for. My favourite is the london fog with macadamia milk!:)

This is a gem of a place in Lakeview! On a weekday morning it was busy with people seated inside and outside, and we were so glad we visited here. The decor inside is quaint and upscale, and showcases the fantastic food and beverages available. Selections on the wall are read easily, and, what a selection! We ordered smoked salmon and bagels, and they were delicious. The servers here are so attentive and efficient, and genuinely care about their customers and the quality of the service they provide.
Coffee, tea, baked goods and many many meal items are available here. The tables are spaced well and we were not rushed at all. Try Sierra - you will not be disappointed!

What a cool little place! Lovely atmosphere, great coffee and the staff was so friendly! Highly recommend it.

Hidden gem in Lakeview. Great interior design and spacious seating inside and outside. Full kitchen with a a great healthy menu with options to cater to all. Super friendly staff completes the atmosphere making you feel welcomed.

Hidden gem in Calgary. Best coffee I had in a long time. The avocado toast was to die for. Highly recommend

This is such a cool new business. Great coffee, and delicious food, plus a nice little patio out front. A real hidden treasure!

A great place to stop for a specialty coffee and and lunch or a snack. Baked goods are awesome and service is very friendly and quick.
A refreshing non-starbucks experience just off Glenmore in Lakeview.

What a gem! My husband and I stopped in to check this place out yesterday and we were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the service, safety protocols and product. My husband is a coffee connoisseur and says it's the best flat white he's had in years. I was thrilled to try macadamia milk for the first time - a great new alternative for someone who is lactose intolerant and avoiding the oat milk craze.
We hope you do great business Sierra Cafe!

I'm always hunting for a quality breakfast sandwich and Sierra's is amazing!
Along with a wonderful drip coffee.

Very nicely decorated, staff was very welcoming and kind. Me and my friend came just for a cookie and cinnamon bun, and the treated us with a glass of cold water and ice. Would definitely come again!

Friendly staff, quick service, beautiful interior and a fabulous cup of dark roast! I absolutely intend to return.

They're also very clearly following and enforcing Covid guidelines, and I felt safe and comfortable the whole transaction.

It’s hard enough to run a small business but try opening during a pandemic. Delicious coffee and food. Support local!

Great cafe! So happy to finally see a nice cafe in this complex, it is a very welcome addition to Lakeview. The lattes are amazing, and I've tried the breakfast sandwich and the pulled pork bao buns both are unreal! Definitely worth your while to check this place out.

Finally a decent cafe in this shopping centre. Great coffee and the food is also good. A varied menu with options for most diets.

Very slow (and borderline rude) service and really mediocre coffee. I will not be back, plenty of superior cafe options in this city!

Exceptional service. The staff always has time for a visit. Delicious food and I love their beverages. So grateful to have you in our neighbourhood. Thank you for all that you do, Andre and Kim.

Great little place with nice decor and plenty of seating (and a big spaced out patio). Coffee is excellent and my partner enjoyed her oat milk chai latte. I had an almond croissant that I swear to god weighed about a pound - not stingy with the filling. The bao bun pulled pork sandwich is also insanely good.

Welcome to Lakeview! We are delighted to have you as part of our community and will be spreading the good news to other communities, as well.

Great new cafe with a nice interior and awesome coffee. Food service has been terribly slow on all of my visits so far though, even if it's not busy inside.

I have been at this cafe a few times now and I've found the staff and owner to be pleasant and engaging. They know their product and offer great value for your money especially with their food offerings. I had the breakfast wrap this morning which is large, hot, and tasty especially when paired with one of their coffees! I hate to review this place and potentially lose a place to do work but I have to rave about them! This local cafe has it all and I'll keep coming back as long as I can!

Amazing experience. Excellent coffee, friendly staff and the food is fresh and delicious. I'm definitely coming back and highly recommend

Fantastic cafe in Lakeview. Love the food, service and bevvies. The avocado toast with sunny side egg is a particular favourite. And they carry oat milk for those of us who prefer it.

WOW! So happy I finally visited this lovely Cafe today (and am even more happy that it is just across the street). Customer service was a delight, had the medium roast drip and it was one of the best coffees I've had in MONTHS. The salmon avocado toast was unlike anything I'd ever had - it was so delicious & flavorful. So grateful you guys are here

Really nice coffee and baked goods, they do a kids temperature hot chocolate and even gave the kids little candy treat bags for Halloween!

Very urban for the burbs in a good way. The area totally needs this. Small patio to boot. Just took a sip of my first flat white here and very impressed!

Amazing experience. Avocado toast with salmon was delicious and the Americano had good flavour and depth. Service was excellent too. Highly recommended.

Stopped in with a business colleague for a coffee in the afternoon on their ‘soft opening’. Coffee was delicious, served up quick, with friendly staff, and reasonable prices. I will also add it was spotless clean inside, everything had a sheen and polish to it. Maybe not that unexpected since it was the first official day of being open. This quaint but still upscale coffee shop will do well, and I will be back.

I have coming to this cafe since they opened and let me tell you: best chai in Calgary hands down (I always ask extra hot)! For the food, I love everything they have but my favorite it's the poke bowl! Definitely recommend trying!

Had a Latte and Cappuchino at Sierra Cafe this morning and it was very good. Staff were very friendly and the decor was beautiful.

Sierra Café has been open for a month or so and my wife and I walked over from our house for coffees to go. I was very pleased with the decor, friendly staff and the coffee, too. People were social distancing pretty well and wearing masks. There’s specious patio seating that’s a perfect addition on sunny days. I sure enjoy having a good quality coffee shop in Lakeview!
