“ We ducked into this place to escape the rain—cold, wet, and not planning to stop originally. But stepping inside, we were welcomed by large bay windows letting in a flood of natural light, giving the space a calm and inviting vibe. My partner was just looking for a small snack and a drink and wasn't sure what to order, so they asked one of the staff for a recommendation. The staff member mentioned they make both their mocha ganache and caramel for lattes in-house. That sealed the deal—they went with the caramel latte and a slice of poppyseed loaf. Everything was cozy, simple, and delicious. We’ll definitely be coming back—and highly recommend it if you’re looking for chill vibes and warm service. ”
“ Great coffee shop! Their donuts and pastries are amazing. A must stop if you're on Whyte ave for the market or out and about! The staff are always friendly and the atmosphere is great. It's usually hard to snag a spot to sit on the weekends but cozy if you do. Highly recommend!! ”
“ I recently spent a snowy afternoon at PACT Coffee, and it was exactly what I needed. With beautiful plants, cozy lighting, and a front-row view of the street through large windows, the atmosphere felt calm and grounding—a little pocket of warmth in the middle of a wintry day. I ordered a cup of their coffee, and it was rich, smooth, and brewed to perfection. Whether you’re looking to catch up with a friend or spend a few quiet hours reading and reflecting, this cafe is great for both social and focused experiences. I had Love in the Time of Cholera with me and found the ambiance ideal for getting lost in its pages while sipping my drink and watching the snowfall outside. ”
“ My gf and I went on a coffee date and we really liked the overall atmosphere. We both ordered a Chai Latte, I ordered mine with skim milk, she had 2% added to her drink from what I remember. It tasted really good! On top of the latte's, we ordered a Dark chocolate Matcha donut, this was so good. The placed is decorated with some really neat artwork. The service was good and we were greeted almost instantly, you'll also enter this establishment through one of the biggest doors I have ever walked through; we thought it was a window! lol This place would be awesome for first dates! We were thoroughly entertained by the Whyte Ave preacher the entire time we were there, good times on Whyte... I'd recommend this place to my friends and family. ”
“ Went early on Friday to grab coffee and work with a colleague. Good coffee. Good service. Great ambiance. Excellent location. Ordered a croissant and it tasted great, fresh. ”
“ I had the blueberry pastry thing, and it was SO good. Not as sweet as it looks, but still a pastry. The doughnut part had a perfect texture. Had an oat latte as well, it was on the frothier side, excellent considering I was hungry. The layout of the seats is nice, and there is a lot of seating. The washrooms are also top drawer. This was my first time trying a coffee shop in this neighbourhood and if there's any better one, I'll be surprised. ”
“ I always like coming to Pact; great coffee and delicious baked goodies, always friendly service and a comfortable atmosphere. The only downside is that they stopped selling pizza buns. They were SO good and it's been probably 2 years since they discontinued them but I still miss them. (Pact owners, please consider bringing them back) :) ”
“ I stumbled in here for the first time the other day in search of caffeine. Much to my delight their latte was delicious and came with an adorable heart on it. (I'm such a sucker for that kinda thing.) What I was not prepared for, was how epic their donuts are! I got the Caramel Marshmallow and it blew my mind - not exaggerating. You know when you bite into something and you're anticipating what it will taste like? Well I was not anticipating it to taste THAT good. I took pause, my friends. They had some sort of piped cream on there that just sent me. It wasn't until I mentioned how good this donut was to someone else that I learned their donuts are not only vegan but also gluten free! Mind blown - just do yourself a favour and go!!! ”
