I don’t usually drink coffee, but this morning I got to work a little early so I thought I’d treat myself to a mocha before heading in. The barista (blond hair, Eastern European accent) at the counter could not have been less interested in being there or serving me. I asked for a mocha & then asked if they had any flavoured syrups. She rolled her eyes and said no. They had vanilla. Okay, no problem, I’ll just have a regular mocha. She then seemed maybe confused about what a mocha was? Or maybe a better way to describe her response was disgusted that I would have the audacity to order something so common? She asked if I meant a latte with chocolate. And honestly, as I said, I’m not really a coffee drinker, so I wasn’t 100% sure if that’s what it consists of. So I said, “I think so?” She just said “We don’t really do those here.” and seemed really put out that I’d even asked. I was just made to feel stupid and like I was a massive inconvenience, so I said it was okay, not to worry about it & then headed out. It was just meant to be a morning treat, it wasn’t worth trying to hammer out this request with someone who had no interest in making a simple coffee. But as I’m walking out, she yells after me, “We’re not Starbucks.” Ummm… yeah. I know. I’m not particularly fond of Starbucks, there is no Starbucks in the area, and I prefer to support small businesses when I can. I wasn’t ordering some monstrous frappa-Frankenstein concoction. I had ordered a mocha. So thank you to the Gravity barista for going well out of their way to make someone feel so small and stupid and inconvenient for daring to order a mocha this morning. I certainly won’t be recommending this business any time soon, and I certainly won’t be back. At least Starbucks baristas can offer some modicum of civility.

It was an average place. It was my first time there but it didn't impress me in any way. The food was expensive for such a simple fare but that's to be expected when the sign says "they have lazy owners". I'm sure that's supposed to be a joke. I had a simple matcha drink & a bagel. The drink didn't have sugar & the bagel was served with two little packets of cream cheese I put on myself. I paid $10 for those two items and I was asked to tip on the machine. I thought to myself I don't know how good either one of these will be and I have barely received any service so I didn't tip. Again it was my first time there. Once I received the items I thought it was a steep price. Considering the person dropping them off didn't even say there was no sugar in the drink. Where I could find the sugar. Which I hunted down myself and didn't even bother asking the staff. I mean this is the service industry. If you don't tip you don't receive service. So I thought I didn't get the service cause I didn't tip. I would get treated better at Starbucks but Starbucks is all about customer service cause everything there is expensive. These guys should just charge a little more for there items and give better customer service if money is the issue. Match drink was just a match drink and not a matcha latte. Bagel was just a bagel with two packets of cream cheese. I suppose with today's inflation it's a fair price but I don't feel welcome enough to return. Just my personal feeling nothing to do with the business.

I was originally eying on the Blueberry white chocolate scone as it looks tasty. I changed my mind when I saw a plaque saying they have the best vegetable quiche. The vegetable quiche was mouthwatering! It was toasted in perfection. We also tried the ham and cheese muffin… it was okay. The smokiness flavour in the ham stands out. Otherwise, it was just okay. The price is a bit high for the food, but acceptable with the crazy inflation we are experiencing. I saw some reviews about their coffee being the best in town. I would disagree with it. I mean it’s comparable with Starbucks, but definitely not as great as what the other reviews stated. The atmosphere is great and service is also great.

I am not a coffee drinker, but we went here to see a friend play live and it was a lovely experience, the way the Cafe is set up you cannot really hear the artist that well from the other end of the Cafe. The spinach dip is so good, I would definitely recommend. My qualms for not a 5 star review are that I noticed a few of the tables were wobbly, and it was unclear where the menu was or if someone was serving you. We did get some hot chocolates but they were not good at all. It is not a regular menu item but they could have something better than the basically milk they offered us. I thought the price was a bit high. 2 hot chocolates and a spinach dip was just over $40 with then the cover fee to watch our friend play included. It's a cute place and the staff were friendly, and like I said the spinach dip was phenomenal.

2021 UPDATE » 7 years later and Gravity remains as my favourite cafe in the city. Yes, I'm biassed - I love coffee, scotch, and great food, all of which is served here. The owner is a bit of a winging bloke but he grows on you after a while ;-) In all seriousness, Andy is committed to community which is abundantly clear when you spend a little time experiencing the cafe. 2015 » I love Gravity. Everything about it is awesome. A great and unique menu, be it food or drink. Open concept - super high ceilings. Table for 4? 8? Seating at the bar or window. Very convenient. Parking is available... hour free in the back or metred parking on the street. Staff? Terrific. Andy, the owner, is often around. He's the one with the English accent. You'll find him walking around, tidying up and treating patrons. His team are just a wonderful. They are attentive and accurate with my order. If you've not been to Inglewood and taken in the Gravity experience... make it happen, you won't be disappointed.

  • Candice H

What a wonderful Monday afternoon date with my husband. First time coming to Cafe Gravity in Inglewood and we were greeted by this lovely lady with long hair straight hair and I wish I had gotten her name because she deserves the recognition. She was very helpful and patient, given us recommendations on latte drinks and warmed up our scone (which was delectable). She even snuck me a small taste of butter chicken curry soup which then purchased a container to go. Thank you for your smile and sharing your kindness. We will be back. Please take the time to check this cafe out it’s so full of atmosphere and live bands every night but Mondays I believe. Free books to read and lots of food choices all made in house.

  • James Allinson

Very friendly staff and a cool vibe, served promptly. Unfortunately, the coffee was lacking. The place was busy, seating was at about half capacity, and the staff were keeping the line moving and keeping it orderly which was great. I ordered a cortado and a cheese bagel with philly cheese spread. Didn't wait long at all, but the coffee tasted under-extracted (sour) and I had to get up and ask for my spread after I was just given a toasted bagel. Overall, the bagel was decent, I was served promptly though the main attraction wasn't what I was expecting after hearing great reviews about the coffee. Would I go here again? Maybe when quiet, but not when it's busy. I can seriously appreciate a barista needs to move fast when there's a rush, but I'd expect good espresso from an espresso bar.

  • Ash Pooley

Hi Andy, sorry it won't let me see your response currently so I thought I'd voice my concerns here. Firstly, this is a beautiful trendy establishment with a great variety of drinks. That being said it was my first time visiting and when I initially approached the counter there were two staff members behind it. I approached one and she directed me to the other member that I hadn't seen. When I approached the staff member I asked if take out cups were available to which I received a standoffish 'of course' response which was off putting. When I did receive my coffee it was quite bitter, I'm not sure if this is due to the type of bean used and its typically a bit more of a bitter brew or if it had been an older pot. Hopefully my next experience is more pleasant. Thanks!

  • John William Wade

The café Mocha here has a deep, rich flavour to it here. The Barista is extremely careful to make a pretty image of a flower at the top with the milk froth, which tops it all off! The Pizza Panini actually tastes like a pizza! Who would have thought??? Haha... most places that serve them have so little toppings on them that all you really taste is the bread. That is NOT the case here. Cheese and pizza sauce were continuously oozing all over from the sandwich. I had to lean over my many times to not have it leak on to me. (Great problem to have btw) The staff are friendly and efficient. Also, as an added bonus, parking is quite easy to find in this little corner of Inglewood. That is definitely something to consider over there! All in all I do recommend here.

  • James Cale

This is one of those little gems that you stumble upon when traveling through inglewood, the first couple times I saw it, I passed it thinking, "Oh, I might like to try that!" and I must say I'm glad I did! The owner, A great guy who is there so often, always brings a positive energy to the room. I really enjoy when I get the chance to stop in and soak in the surroundings. Live music on occasion, Fresh and different foods, and a large selections of wine and beer embrace you in this modern styled environment. Even better yet is it shares a wall with Bite Groceteria who features a large selection of foods and other additions to your kitchen. keep in mind for before or after your time at Gravity

  • Donna McTaggart

How can you not love a place that has cheesecake in a jar that is to die for! And the Lattes are awesome. Great space for a small meeting - for me I cap it at 4. They can accomodate a larger group, however the sound is challanging and it is difficult to hear when there are more than 4 around a table. Food specials are always tastey. Staff is always friendly. Love spending alone time in this venue. Large windows allow for much light. It's a sweet spot to have a local musician provide some background music. Since the sound is challenging - it's not ideal for musicians. But it definitely adds to the abmiance. I book appointments and stop by when I'm in Inglewood. Definitely a favorite of mine.

  • fa aa

Very good Americano from always friendly staff. Small patio outside and nice indoor seating available normally. Currently closed due to pandemic. Good selection of foods and baking for a coffee or lunch stop. Parking is in the street or one of the paid lots close by. Wheelchair and stroller friendly. Pre-pandemic there were some live performances and events in the evenings. The community support here is alive and well. We work 15mins away and this is a great destination for a lunch walk and talk outing. Thanks for your hard work! You help make Inglewood one of the best neighborhoods in town.

  • Maria CS

There is a coffee shop near my house that I dislike going to because the staff is so miserable as if it's cool to be standoffish - like do you want my business? Gravity on the other hand is in it's own universe of friendliness and warmth. The server was super cheery, delightful, made friendly conversation and had patience in spades as this was my first time visiting the cafe. Maybe it was the sunlight permeating through the building or maybe it's just the friendly vibe - whatever you folks do, don't lose it!

I really loved this spot! There was great seating outside with umbrellas. I ended up moving inside because it got a bit too hot. But found a nice spot by the window inside to do some work! The coffee was delicious. I just got an Americano - so I can’t speak to the lattes or specialty drinks. But I’ve already been back since and enjoyed it just as much as the first time. Also, the staff were absolutely delightful and welcoming! (My only feedback for the barista’s is to make sure to shake the oat milk before pouring, it was separating quite a bit in my drink. But small potatoes overall!)

  • Charlie Mac

Overall Gravity has a pleasant atmosphere. I went there instead of Rosso’s because there were more places to sit. But little did I know that many of these seats are reserved. We ended up finding a great spot because my friend is in a wheelchair so accessibility was important. With the music starting at 7, I thought we’d be great getting there at 5. They started setting up for the band at 5:40, so we felt pushed out. Ended up going next door to finish our coffee at Bite. The service is good, but I wish there wasn’t such a focus on the nightly entertainment. Doesn’t make me feel welcome.

  • Heather Trotter

Gravity is my go-to place to meet anyone for a coffee date. I love the atmosphere. There is always beautiful art showcased on the wall. The artists change frequently. They host local talented musicians and even comedy for a reasonable cover. They have amazing treats. I recommend the flourless chocolate cake pair with the Market Spice tea. But they also do a delicious almond milk latte and a vegan chocolate coconut brownie. There are regular treats and eats for people who can eat all the good things in life as well. The staff are warm and welcoming. You will not be disappointed.

  • Shawn Canada

Last week came in to get 2 hot chocolates as we were very cold. After ordering them the lady went off to do other things like cleaning up dishes. Then after a couple minutes she started making the drinks and brought them to use. Wow were they not even warm :/. Then she was way to busy on her own to let her know they were not hot. I have been here a few times in the summer and know that this place can be a bit better then this but not much better.

I've had the pleasure enjoying a coffee here a few times over the years. Service is always great. I appreciate a small business owner that cares about the safety of their patrons. Some of the most recent negative reviews from individuals whom clearly do not live in this province, let alone this city are disappointing. Have some respect for these hardworking people who are trying to get through this whole mess. I will continue to bring myself and my entire fully vaccinated family here. Thank you!

  • Tassianna

I think I found a hidden gem, the staff was so polite and friendly. I think it was the owner that brought our food out and he was extremely polite as well. I had the Jamaican meat pie and my mom had the vegetarian quiche. The food was out of this world delicious, overall we had an amazing experience I had to leave a tip! Thank you guys so much and we’ll be back with more friends and family.

Overall I was disappointed. I had visited gravity a few years ago, and enjoyed it at the time. I tried it again today and was disappointed. The staff were unable to describe what was in the meat and cheese plate, and it was served with out knives - only forks were presented. I would have expected the staff to be able to describe what is included in the meal. The wines on the menu are described without reference to their year or location. I don't think I'll return.

  • Brandy Greco

Combining coffee and wine into one place is always a good idea. After walking around Calgary for a few hours we were looking for a place to sit and grab a coffee and dodge the rain. This place was easy to find and provided a cozy atmosphere with excellent service. There is also a neat art exhibit on the right hand side that we enjoyed. Whether you're looking to wake up with a cup of coffee or relax with a glass of wine, I would definitely recommend this place.

  • Adrienne T

My favourite coffee spot in the city and I’ll tell you why: great coffee, wines, and snacks. The staff are all very friendly and take the time get to know you, especially Andy. The live music helps with depression (especially in winter) as does the ample bike parking right out front. Calgary is lucky to have such a cosy spot with lovely atmosphere and dedicated people running it. P.S. For those who understand, the free life drawing setup is excellent

  • Michelle Blythen

I really like gravity. Their coffee is good, great ambience. However, I find their service consistently painfully slow. I was there a few days ago and there was three staff behind the counter and no one was in any particular hurry to serve me. After they eventually did, the coffee was also slow to be made. If I had plenty of time, I love this place to sit down and enjoy my coffee and delicious food. I won't be stopping in for a coffee to go any time soon.

  • Linda Tyler

This place is my go to meeting spot for business. I'm not a coffee drinker but I've heard the coffee is excellent. Big fan of their tea and their treats - some of the best gluten free ones I've had anywhere. The service is terrific and it's got a really fun vibe which suites me perfectly. I've never had the wine but the selection looks good - going to have try that soon. I'll keep coming back with my friends and business contacts in tow.

  • Colin Martens

I love how trendy this place is! I always tell people about it. I would honestly go at least once a week if I didn’t live so far away from it. They serve Phil & Sebastian coffee which in my opinion is Calgary’s best coffee. The food was house made and delicious. They serve alcohol and seemed to have a good selection of that too. They have live shows regularly which is so cool. Had a decent amount of seating too! Definitely recommend it.

  • aneesa idris

My first time here, I was served by Dabria and Dakota. And holy smokes, the coffee was amazing, the cheesecake was amazing. It was a great place to sit down, do my work, and study. It had outlets, good table space, and these two girls were so nice and smiling and speaking kindly with everyone, they gave me great suggestions and helped me get exactly what I wanted. I’d give it 6 stars if I could. The girls and this place are gems.

  • Joelle Johnson

Best coffee shop in Inglewood by far. I love this place. Coffee is great. Staff are very good and there is a definite sense of humour about this place. Food is great. And they offer live music. Plus the ambiance makes you want to slow down, sit and enjoy, rather than grab your coffee and keep running through your day. I love this place. 10/10

You've never been to a coffee bar/beer/cafe like this before - we love this place, and were so happy to know that they have catering options!? I know right, we were just as excited! Their service is impeccable and they truly care for their staff and customers. Nice to see a local coffee shop doing great things. Stop in, order catering, buy a gift card and support local - you won't be disappointed! :)

Had lunch with a friend at this bright and happy establishment. You can buy their quiches and pies by the slice or pick up a complete one to take home. We shared a Buffalo chicken spread and a chicken flat bread which was more then enough food for the two of us. Great spot for a quick bite or a hang out with your friends

I will keep coming back to Gravity. Their wine and beer selection is excellent, and as someone who doesn't drink coffee, I really appreciate having other drinks to rely on! Their menu isn't huge, but what they have is excellent. Their vegetarian options are delicious, and I say that as an omnivore. They also host a great variety of music, I'm sure there's something there for everyone.

  • Ariel Ambling Abroad

Apparently "we make all of our drinks extra wet". Not bad beans or bad service at all, a cute place - however, the staff could be more knowledgeable on how to make specialty drinks, i had a good experience none the less. Although, I don't appreciate excuses or lies - I do appreciate kindness. Would i go back? Not before trying other coffee shops in the area.

  • Jesi Dawn

Quaint little place, friendly staff, good music, unique variety of drink and food, small and cozy. Something new to see each time I'm there. Live music. Friendly and rustic environment. Hands down will go again, great place to meet people, and I seriously saw ALL ages from young children to the elderly and it was clear we all felt welcomed and comfortable.

  • Andrew Lau

A local favourite. They brew and pull local Phil and Sebastian coffee and espresso and have an assortment of delicious food and pastries as well. I'm partial to the chicken and mushroom curry and naan. As the name suggests, they also have a solid selection of beer and wine. Stop by Friday/Saturday for live music to accompany the already great ambience.

  • Yoana Georgieva

I love the atmosphere in here! Great place to study in! And they have an outdoor patio. Plus once you get tired of studying you can go thrifting down the road. The only kinda annoying thing is there is some flies. And also their chocolate cake is dry af. I do wish they also had more food options.

  • Michael Claeren

Easily best coffee shop in Calgary, authentic community vibe, lots going on each day/evening, and of course great coffee. Owners are often in the Cafe working the machine and greeting guests themselves. They have a hip wine, beer and cheese scene at night that is pretty cool too, especially if the right crowd is in the house.

  • Champagne Jane

The carrot cake and raspberry cheesecake are very good, as well as their lattes. Enjoyed the musical performance as well. Prices are extremely good. Will visit again when I'm next in the area. Only downside is parking, but that's not on them. Staff was all friendly and attentive.

Let's see how Latin I came to visit this place with live music, a quite expensive place, the drinks are not that good, light cocktails like for people who are not used to drinking there are none, a chocolate cake that looks like a rock , very small place, would I go back to this place? Absolutely not.

Grabbed less sweet caramel latte at the recommendation of the barista today and it was very nice. I found it a little weak on the espresso taste/milk ratio (I had a regular size) but I still enjoyed it. The staff were super friendly and helpful so I'll definitely be back to try more from their menu.

My wife and I love this cafe. I enjoyed my panini immensely, and after tasting my wife's I wanted to eat hers as well. My favourite aspect has to be the self serve water area. I went for a bike ride after my panini and loved grabbing some water when I got back, without having to hassle the staff.

Went in at 7am in the morning on a weekday. Great vegetable quiche. The tea latte was also good. I liked the service as well. If I lived in the area I can definitely see myself coming here. I think it might be a great place to work for an hour or two in the morning if you do remote work

Great coffee. They serve Phil and Sebastien coffee. The tables and space are beautiful. Great live musicians in the evening. Great service. Always enjoy coming here. And their loyalty card is a nice perk. They carry local flyers that you can browse. Thanks for a great experience.

  • Alex

My favourite cafe in town. An awesome and friendly staff expertly pulling Phil & Sebastian in a beautiful space. They also have great food, and quite an extensive beer and wine selection. Gravity is open late with weekly live music, and a real part of the community. A must visit.

  • Debra St

The live music was lovely. Nice location in Inglewood. Food was definitely a disappointment though. Butter chicken, although very flavorful, had no rice and was more like a soup. The cheesecake in a jar was missing the jar and came in a 2 inch plastic cup. Service was very slow.

  • Elise Vogels

A very versatile space. Great spot to get work done, relax or socialize. They have drink specials, warm and cold food options, good coffee, fast wifi and lots of seating options. They play live music sometimes so you might want to check in advance before coming to get work done.

Perfect coffee shop for hosting a meeting. There's always tables available, great service, great coffee/tea and there's plenty of parking around back. (Go I to the gated lot - the first 1.5hrs is free, then you just pay the difference). This place is a gem for sure.

We went to see a friend play here and we totally enjoyed ourselves. The wine and beer menu was good and not too costly we had a bottle of wine an couple of beers and all for under $70ish. It's great that there is places like this that local talent can be supported.

  • Oscar Kwok

This place is more than just coffee. They have food, beer, live music from a DJ, and wine. We got a latte with soy milk and machiato which was pretty good. The atmosphere is very vintage like and makes you feel comfortable. Overall a good place to relax and chill.

  • Bruce Gilkes

Gravity is a beautiful coffee shop in the trendy Inglewood district. The rustic finishes and mix of table sizes are ideal for meetings. The coffee menu is outstanding and they have a variety of interesting food for purchase. Great for small or medium sized groups.

Always great food, great drinks, great selection of craft beer and wine, and great music almost every night. You can't go wrong here ... And in the day time, a great place for local business meetings, a darling of the tech, advertising and startup community

  • S K

Probably my favourite cafe in town to study at! Most of the time there is adequate seating but there have been a few times where it's super packed! The staff is super nice and friendly and make you feel as ease there. Love their coffee stamp card too!

  • Garrett Hendriks

Nice selection of wine, odd but good craft beer selection(only odd in that it's mostly Ontario's Collective Arts) lots of dad jokes on menus and chalkboards but pretty nice food choices. Very friendly staff. Didn't much care for the espresso though.

  • Chris Potvin

Great place for a cup of coffee. Great coffee. A bit on the pricier side for a small black coffee at 2.90 but the atmosphere is great and the service is excellent. Favourite place to go for coffee in Inglewood. Make sure you ask for the stamp card.

  • Nora Ready

I really enjoyed the quaintness of the Cafe & the very friendly ladies who waited on us. Also enjoyed the kickass Americano & delicious quich & lentil salad. Will definitely be going back fir more!!!

Pretty 'hip' little place, maybe around 60 seats. Nice decor, big sunny windows. The staff was very pleasant, smiling and welcoming. They knew their product very well. I think they have live music on occasion there which is kind of neat.

  • Chantal Laforest

What a lovely spot to listen to some live music! The flatbread is delicious and I had the best latte of my life here. Staff are super friendly and attentive. Strongly recommend going here!

High end coffee shop that has ran out of cream for their coffee. Grocery store is literally next door but that’s too far to run over and grab a carton of cream. Unacceptable when charging premium prices for the coffee. Do better.

  • Genegie B

One of my spots for watching live music, while having coffee (Phil & Sebastian)/wine or both. The ambiance and atmosphere are to my taste. The food was decent, the soup was surprisingly filling and hearty. I would go back again.

  • Taylor Braun

Such amazing staff! Super helpful and friendly. I would love to come again however I did find my americano sour, perhaps the shot was pulled wrong or it was the coffee? But thanks for having a great environment and great staff!

Gravity is one of my favourite cafes. Great coffee, but the staff is always friendly and Andy the owner is one of the most hilarious people I’ve met. Plenty of power outlets as well for doing any work or meeting with people.

  • Mahwish Jaffar Rizvi

Barista was outside playing with a customer's dog and then came in and made our lattes without washing her hands, gross! The coffee was good and so was the atmosphere, but a little attention to hygiene would be nice

  • Carol Reynolds

Great little shop with yummy gluten free options. Must try the gf espresso brownie!

Amazing live music location in Calgary. Gravity always makes for a great space when I'm looking to get work done over some awesome snacks or have a nice relaxing night out with some friends over some local tunes.

  • Adam Erickson

Some of the best coffee I've had in the city. Good variety of food and desserts to choose from, as well as a unique beer and wine selection. All this, plus affordable live music makes Gravity a must-visit.

  • Shavonne Perreault

Love this place! The prices are good, the food is varied and delicious, and the coffee is one of the best tasting in Calgary. Huge Espresso and drink menu to boot. Will come here again with friends :)

Very cozy and a good location. Decent latte and kind baristas, all you could want from a coffee shop! I did not try any of the wine or that experience; this is simply from a cafe goers point of view.

  • Merry Kuchle

Great space! Gravity is the perfect place to work, grab coffee with a friend or go see a bit of live music. There aren’t a ton of places that do a lot of things and do them all well but this is one!

  • Jada Stricker

A VERY good place to go to for a coffee. Always busy. They have done a very good job catering to customers needs with music, Friday night meals and so on. There is also free parking out back!

  • Daniela Perez

The place is great, lovely music and very friendly staff. It was out first time visiting and will definitely come back. We tried the Chai Latte and the Vainilla Late and both were delicious.

  • Megan Szanik

This day time coffee shop and night time live music wine bar has Dad Humour at its finest (thanks to owner Andy). It is a great local cafe with live music 5 nights a week and a lovely staff.

  • Donna Savarie

I love the ambience here. You can come with work colleagues, friends, spouse, alone, etc. and it's just right each time. I love their variety of bites and of course their coffee selection.

  • Gianluca D'Antonio

Cappuccino was very well crafted. The cheese scone was perfect. Patio seating was cool and breezy on a hot day. Only thing I could say was it was a little pricey compared to competitors.
