Standard layout, standard establishment. Nothing really sticks out with this business, but it certainly gets the job done(in terms of getting your caffeine or snack fix). I would only grab said fix, if it’s convenient and on the way.

This is one of 2 second cups in st Albert and I visit both. This location has a great patio and café. Comfy chairs and newspapers make you feel like you’re in someone’s living room. The patio faces south so you get a lot of sun. The funny thing is that the drive thru goes right around it so if youre lounging you do hear the order being taken by the staff. On that note the staff do a good job taking and making your order. I went back and asked for more ice in my iced coffee and got it no questions asked. I like a few of their food items but they are usually over priced and just go into a microwave to be heated.

This is an awesome Second Cup. I love the layout of the tables and chairs, no matter where you sit it always feels cozy. This is a great location for studying, meeting with friends, or just going to do the crossword puzzle. The drinks are always made to perfection and the staff don’t roll their eyes when you make special requests or double check that they used sugar free syrup. The staff are definitely a highlight here as they are unusually helpful for a coffee shop and very friendly. My favorite summer drink is the Italian Soda! I agree that the outside patio is not ideal. It is in an awkward space and sometimes you are breathing in exhaust fumes when you want to be enjoying the sunshine. However that drive thru does come in handy when you just finished at the gym and don’t want to go inside all sweaty!

This might just be my favourite Second Cup in the Edmonton area(but as a St. Albert girl born and raised, I might just be biased)! The staff here are great, and always try to get through multiple customers in the line-up at a time. The drinks come quickly, and they always make sure to ask if you’d like it in a to-stay mug(three cheers for the environment). I love the Espresso Chillers and nanaimo bars! My one criticism? The patio is awkwardly positioned between the café and the drive through, meaning your outdoor conversation is constantly interrupted by car engines in summertime.
