      I dropped by this location and spoke with the owner. He is not a big fan of Yelp and that is all he talked about. Of course, every one is entitled to their opinion and I respect that. I was very disappointed in the coffee. Probably the worst I have had in months. Definitely overpriced for the size you get. I have to say the decor was interesting and I can see where people who are into coffee might like this place. But if their regular coffee is any indication of their roasted coffee I have to say I was not impressed. In fact, as soon as I left I just threw the coffee in the trash can as I just couldn't drink it. Won't be going back there.

      The cafe is clean and the workers are polite.

      It's a nice cafe to sit and work (I was editing my novel near an outlet without issues).

      The matcha latte was good. Would have liked it a tad sweeter but still some of the best hmm at h I've had at a cafe. I wasn't a huge fan of the cinnamon roll but it wasn't bad.

      Sought x Found has quietly become one of the best coffeehouses in the country.

      I hadn't been in many months, but I had the pleasure of a visit a few days ago and- wow. First, SxF now is its own roaster and they take it SERIOUSLY, with many rare options and it's all carefully curated, and the staff knows its stuff. I love how your options are espresso and "espresso with milk" in four sizes. Moreover you have a choice from, when I was there, six different espressos- yes, now, Q.Lab does the same thing, but with full respect to Q.Lab, SxF is its own roaster (Q.Lab sources from several different local roasters) and is a lot more luxurious, with rare beans that are distinctive. I got a "small" (this'd be a cortado or piccolo at most other shops), at 4.5 ounces, and chose an anaerobic process, single-origin option for the espresso portion and the flavour notes checked out- it was "boozy" and fascinating, and the milk was PERFECTLY steamed and at a PERFECT temperature. The whole experience was very special.

      Now, I'd not get that coffee every time, it's a $3 premium on top of the very-reasonable base charge of $4.50, with which you get the standard house espresso, but for once in a while this is a memorable experience. This is the place to take out-of-town guests who don't know what a world-class coffee scene we are blessed with in Calgary.

      Sought x Found was an incredible experience!

      We were greeted with the fantastic aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans. The coffee options abound, as there were easily ten or more different bags of coffee that one could purchase, at about $29 a piece. The store also sells coffee paraphernalia, which is always fun!

      The staff were so welcoming and took the time to not only explain the options, but what made them special. We had both warm and cold lattes and each were wonderful, though the warm was my preference! The espresso they were using was wonderful, with lots of dynamic fruit flavours. It was called Paradise Tabi, a Columbia bean, that had notes of lavender, passionfruit, guava, and peppermint. This espresso was easily one of my favourites I have ever had! However, the espresso they use changes week-to-week based on availability, so coming back regularly for new things is certainly in the plan!

      The shop has indoor seating with a ton of plants that can be viewed, and purchased. However sitting outside was certainly worth it, as there was a fun street side patio that was great for spending some quality time.

      The coffee was accompanied by an order of their Toast: On the Pasture, and Toast: In the Forest. We split each order into three so each of us could try both kinds, and they were awesome! It isn't a meal to be certain, but I would certainly order it again. Toast: On the Pasture is Sidewalk Citizen sourdough bread with cream cheese, organic pumpkin seeds, dried apricots, and handcrafted ginger orange jelly. Toast: In the Forest also uses Sidewalk Citizen sourdough bread, however has an incredible with in house-made hazelnut butter, topped with organic apple slices, handcrafted Saskatoon berry jam, and toasted maple oats. Toast: In the Forest was certainly the crowd favourite, though both were delicious!

      After enjoying coffee and snacks you can go next door to several cute shops!

      There is parking, though limited, in the back of the store. It shares with the brewery next door, so you may have luck though I suspect it fills up quickly.

      Will absolutely be going back!

      We go weekly for their Sunday coffee flights. The vibe is great, the staff are always so friendly and helpful. It's a little more expensive than most coffee shops, but the experience is totally worth it! Highly recommend!

      I have always been supportive to local coffee roasters. But this small coffee shop up on Crescent Heights gives above and beyond.

      I finally got the chance to sit in the dining room since reopening after COVID. I've ordered an espresso and a pour over coffee.

      All coffee beans are blend and roasted in-house.

      Not getting into the fancy terms in taste. Their coffee has a smooth and fruity (more towards berry) taste. Who said coffee are meant to have a sole purpose of awakening?

      Thanks Celeb and your team for all you offer. I will and continue to support!

      Ok so being a person that is not a coffee drinker I can't really comment on the coffee. The tea I had was good not my favourite but they added lavender to a London fog and I'm not big on lavender to begin with and I don't really feel like it's a flavour to add to a black tea and vanilla based drink.
      Trendy Looking place really rustic cozy kind of feet to it, with a little bit of pizzazz here and there.

      By far the best coffee shop in Calgary, AB. The staff is very knowledgeable of every type of bean they have as well as extremely friendly. They have awesome pastries and the shop itself is very cozy. 10/10
