analog coffee 17th avenue

now, for the drinks. honestly, if you’re really in a rush or looking for a non-fat triple venti caramel mocha whatever, than analog coffee probably isn’t for you. like anything of quality in this world, the fratello brothers believe that a good cup of coffee takes time. here, their team of baristas operate the slayer — a top-of-the-line espresso machine created by fratello (now used in many top cafés all over the world) — to create espresso-based beverages, complete with latte art of course, and a pour-over system for drip coffee…

our recent favorite is analog cafe on 17th, such a lively ambiance and a terrific hipster crowd. their coffee is incredible, i had one of the most delicious and silky-smooth lattes that i’ve ever enjoyed. for this laid back cafe afternoon, i paired my casual leggings with my new adored military-inspired jacket. have a wonderful week friends! hugs, v&v also, i am excited to share that i was spotted by the famous aldona b where my style and outfit was featured in calgary herald and swerve magazine from the schmancy style event this past thursday. also, be sure to check out aldona’s style blog, she is an author of an incredible blog that can be found here . ♥ parka jacket: garage | faux-fur vest: suiteblanco (dubai) | leggings: hue | red booties: aldo | white button blouse: katie (toronto) | satchel: street level | authentic fox tail | watch: michael kors | link bracelet: forever 21 |

meet owner chris at the apple store, and with my love of fratello coffee was star struck! i think i threw the owner who was a wonderful gentleman with my excitement. before knowing anything about the company i had already fallen head over heels for the coffee. even just a brewed coffee by fratello is an absolute art form! exquisite aroma, and and extraordinary taste to match. each coffee hits the pallet differently so there is for sure a brew for every coffee lover here. chris told me to come to 17th to try the coffee shop that does fratello the justice it deserves, and he was correct. amazing location great service, and food that is almost at part with the heavenly brew. a must go see for any coffee lover. not only is it great for coffee, food, environment, and service, but also is owned by a humble and lovely gentleman and his brothers who i assume are as equally as wonderful! it is a rare thing i find these days when the people behind the products are as sweet as what they sell.

nice lecture. went to analog and asked for a dark roast coffee.

received a lecture on how analog would never roast anything dark........please.

i settled on an americano that had zero body.

nice staff but the lecture i can do without.

it’s a beautiful cafe, newly built and renovated, but still showing off its antique roots. when sam and i went to analog, the cafe had only been open for a few days. although it was new to the neighbourhood, nearly every seat was taken inside. the cafe had clearly been welcomed as a new spot to get great coffee. since i don’t drink coffee, i can’t testify to it’s taste, but from what sam told me, his latte was smooth, creamy and skillfully crafted. for drip coffee orders, analog uses a hario drip coffee method, which is similar to how you would make a quick coffee on a hiking trip through the mountains. this hario bar, however, is nothing like the plastic drippers you would find hanging from an outdoor enthusiast’s backpack. although our experience with analog cafe was brief, i

great coffe and pastry. i finally made there and i was not dissapointed. being originally from europe i was missing a real coffee and i found it. also, pastry they offer is to die for! unfortunatelly analog is on my way to my gym. here we go! 1 more hr of cardio! can't say no to their goodies! very nice coffee and pleasant interior.

now thats how u make a coffee! and the staff are awesome! my new rdgular! love it!

if this place didn't have great coffee and cool interior design(which it does) i'd come here just for the staff, consistent, charming and knowledgable.

i didn't even make it as far as recovering a coffee. i asked the cashier for a double espresso run long if they could to which she replied that they could, but would not as it would change the flavor of the coffee: i know, that was what i wanted. the snooty arrogant attitudes of the baristas and cashier were not appreciated, and neither i or any of my family will be back.

congrats analog!. been by 4 - 5 times since it opened - so far it is consistently great for both taste and service! i love that it's local & they use sidewalk citizen too. there's some other great coffee available in this area, but it will be the service that sets the winners apart - hope they keep it up at analog.

looking for a great coffee?. then get yourself to analog! i've had a couple of coffees, one which was decaf and a chai latte. all rivaled my personal barista's creations which says a lot since he's mr. perfectionism when it comes to making cappuccinos. loved the quick and easy in and out access.

and boom, fratello suddenly matters.. i didn't want to like it... like a mac fanboy at a surface launch party, i wanted to hate it. i'm a p&s guy, through and through and i've flexed my coffee snobbery pretentiousness more than once by scoffing at fratello's attempts to compete.

but they've done it. their so espresso simply kills it... which puts them into the category of legit 3rd wave roasters in my books. i haven't ventured to try their pour-over bar yet, but that's just because i haven't gotten tired of the espresso.

this is a landmark for calgary.

loved it!. what a great place to come in from the cold and sit down to enjoy good company and tasty treats! their hot chocolate was perfectly creamy.....it just hit the spot! the staff was professional and friendly and added to the welcoming atmosphere this place has to offer. i will most certainly be returning there!

loved it!. besides being an amazing location, and amazingly remodeled, it's the best latte i have had in a long time. perfect night cap for a great night out on 17th. whoever does their baking (didn't check) makes killer scones. all around, fantastic!

latte. i had the chance to go check out this cafe for the first time, was not disappointed! great espresso tied into a great latte and very kind staff. i will certainly return to analog.
