Excellent customer service. I tried several of the roasts. The coffee is roasted in house. Located right near the airport. If you want to experience fresh roasted coffee in your espresso machine, pour over or French press, then this is a great place to check out. They also have a website.
Great place to go for a “real coffee” near the airport. Super friendly staff was super stoked to make me an amazing pourover. My only regret is not buying beans! Stopped here for coffee on my way into the city from YEG, 10/10 would recommend the 2 min detour!
Went for Tasting Event by far the best most informative session yet! Very knowledgeable and get variety of high quality coffees. If your have a coffee bar and don’t use Alternative Coffee you are missing out on unique coffee, top quality, small batch producer. No going back! Get a coffee subscription now. I’m in..,,5 star coffee roasters
Our favorite monthly stop!! Awesome people, awesome variety of coffees and super convenient being right beside the airport. Their beans have been feulling our drive home and my husband's days off for over 3 years now and we look forward to stopping every time.
My office tried the coffee tasting experience. I have always been a tea drinker, because I’ve never been able to enjoy the taste of coffee. It turns out that is because I’ve never had good coffee before! We tried several different roasts and they were all amazing! The owners are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about their craft, so it makes for a very educational and fun experience. They also make the best PSL I have ever had!
