Cozy Cafe

Communitea is my go to spot in Canmore— reliably good food and coffee.

They are now selling their sauces which is a blessing.

Can get a bit busy as it is popular.

Pros: Good vegan options, Fresh

Cons: Sometimes a busy spot

Canmore Must

I come here every time i'm in Canmore for lunch or breakfast. There are lots of vegan options and the food is fresh and healthy.

Only downside is the avacado toast is ridiculously expensive.

Le burrito vegan était bon, mais le toast à l’avocat était délicieux!

Authentique matcha latte et le popcorn au curry était étonnant!

Amazing, Delicious and Wholesome Bowls!

Communitea Cafe is an adorable, charming and friendly cafe in Canmore. During a recent visit to the Rockies in September 2020, I ate here nearly every day (sometimes twice a day)! Their menu is amazing and features a variety of healthy, creative and nourishing bowls, lots of teas, etc.. Items that are gluten free and vegan are clearly marked and there are options to make anything vegan on the menu with substitutions.

Due to the pandemic, the cafe is only open for take-out and patio seating at the moment (no indoor seating). The online ordering system was very efficient and smooth. I liked that the take-out containers were compostable.

I tried the Buddha Bowl, Yoga Bowl and Kale Caesar Salad during my visits and loved all of them. Such delicious and unique flavours and packed with wholesome ingredients. If I could give this place more than 5 stars, it would deserve it. Fantastic and cute little cafe and I will continue to eat here on future travels.

The best hummus

I go here every time I stay in Canmore for breakfast. The hummus they use for their avocado toast is delicious! They have a few marked vegan options on their menu. There is a great selection of locally made tea, too, and they have a choice of oat or almond milk.

Pros: Atmosphere, Downtown location

Multiple delicious vegan options on their food menu for breakfast or lunch. My favourite is the vegan breakfast bowl. They often have vegan baked goods as well!

Pros: Many vegan options - savoury and sweet, Knowledgeable staff

Cons: Can be a long wait during tourist season

Delicious bowl!

This was my second time at Communitea, and it was really tasty. I would definitely recommend getting a bowl, as it's a good amount of food and the ones I've had are really delicious. There definitely can be a longer wait on weekends so keep that in mind. They also have vegan snacks (energy balls) but I haven't tried those yet.

Healthy options

A bright, welcoming and busy cafe serving some healthy vegan options. We tried the Mega Fresh Bowl with sesame tofu add on and the Vegan Burrito - both delicious and filling. We ordered a Blueberry Mint iced tea on a whim which was great as well.

Would have loved a treat at the end but the only vegan option (cinnamon bun) was sold out.

Pros: Healthy, fresh meals, Good vegan options/subs, Nice space

Cons: Slow service , Hard to find a table, Limited vegan treat options

Vegan breakfast options

We came by for a weekday breakfast. Lots of vegan and gluten free options. We had v/gf scones, a vegan burrito, and the hemp bowl. The food was delicious, service was friendly and helpful, and the coffees were well crafted and delicious.

Good Healthy Food

I've been to Communitea twice and both times tried one of their bowls. Healthy ingredients and good portion size and also really delicious, both times.
They generally seem to be fairly busy but service is fast if it's not at peak times (haven't gone for peak times yet).
Their tea is also really good!

Pros: Good number of vegan options, Healthy, Delicious

Cons: Can be busy

Bustling community vibe

Very busy restaurant, can be difficult to find a seat. Very much community vibe with lots of children and friends gathering. My yoga bowl was excellent. Large tea selection. Service a little slow, but friendly.

Pros: It's one of the few options in Canmore for vegans

Cons: can be difficult to find a seat., can be noisy

Coffee break

popped in here for a coffee break one afternoon, it was very busy and almost a full house but the coffee was really tasty, we looked at the lunch menu but didn't have enough time to grab a bite to eat but will return for lunch another day.

Pros: matcha latte, lots of options

Cons: very busy, long line

Cute Place with Wonderful Options

This was a cute little establishment in the mellow town of Canmore... We weren't expecting to find such a café, let alone any good vegan options, but we were very happy with the service and choices here! My mom and I got Buddha Bowls and my brother got one of their sandwiches... Seriously one of the best bowls I've had! This was a great place to fuel up after a long several days of travel.

Pros: Good Portion Sizes, Healthy, Vegan Options Clearly Indicated

Great Vegan Options

I stumbled across this place whilst wandering around Canmore in desperate search for something vegan to eat. I thought this was just a tea/coffee shop but the menu is amazing!! I ordered the classic avocado sandwich (which is served with a side of organic popcorn) with a side of the kale caesar salad. The sandwich was just as good as you could expect any avocado on toast to be but there wasn't a lot of room for wow factor there. The Kale Caesar Salad, however, was absolutely phenomenal. I want to eat this every day for the rest of my life!! I am by no means a salad person and simply decided to order this on a whim but I am definitely going back for that! Its also available in a wrap or just a big bowl of salad. I also ordered the strawberry green tea which was super tasty.

Would definitely recommend this place to absolutely everyone, I can't get enough!!!

Pros: So many vegan options, Delicious kale caesar salad, Great selection of teas

Cons: Super busy

Enjoyable

Another positive experience dining out as a gluten free vegan. Very good menu for my needs and my hubby. He enjoyed the "salmon wrap"....not a vegan.... and I loved the "fresh bowl" with tahini garlic dressing. Vast and great tea menu. Nice and airy environment. Would definitely go again.

Pros: Cheery, Yummy, Friendly

Cons: Counter ordering
