About Purple Perk
History
The Purple Perk Coffee Market was established in October of 2005. That’s over a decade ago! My, how time flies. Well, actually, time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
Mandate
Our Mandate is to provide a neighbourhood coffee experience to, well, the neighbourhood. The neighbourhood AND BEYOND!!! Whoosh!
Neighbourhood
Our neighbourhood is the historic Mission district of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It used to be the “French Section” and known as Rouleauville. It isn’t any more. Hardly anybody speaks French now, except for the French speakers.
Coffee
Our coffee is organic and Rainforest Alliance certified. Find out more about what that means here
. And find out less about what that means here (no, that’s not us, we’re exactly not like that!).
Food
All our food is made from scratch in our kitchen. We have 3 chefs, a baker and & a prep cook on hand to prepare your food! It makes for one crowded kitchen, let me tell you!
Containers
All our coffee cups and take-out trays are made from post-consumer recycled materials. That means they’re not pre-cycled, they’re re-cycled!
Owner
Paul is the only guy at the Perk who has two offices. His natural habitat is either lurking in the newish basement office or behind the glass door near the rear exit. (Except when he’s restocking the washrooms.) Either way, he’s still Paul!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Searched for coffee nearby when we had an errand in the area and decided to get an early lunch. I had the breakfast sandwich and my husband had the club house. The food was delicious, it was reasonably priced and the service was great. Can't ask for much more besides that!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Its been a few years since I came here, but starving & in area, this was the first place I thought of. Still a very busy place & still a lot of delish choices...actually they have added to their menu! Very happy with my lunch choice and now have to go back for the other two choices I didn't make THIS TIME!
Parking can be a challenge as it is on the main street, & there is usually a line up, but worth it. I think they have wifi as I didn't stay.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great vibe, good food, and all around pretty great little spot. The lunch meals are worth the price but $16 for two coffees and two bagels? Maybe a little steep. Because of the nice atmosphere you don’t really realize it’s actually pricer than Starbucks.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very trendy local owned coffee shop. I enjoyed the items we ordered and consumed. I felt that the staff at that time could have been a little friendlier. Prices are not super competitive but I guess a small shop like that needs to charge more to survive in these trying times. I’d still go back. Hopefully the next customer service experience will add a star

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Purple Perk has always been a great place to grab a coffee or a bite. Lots of options for a hot breakfast/lunch and a wide selection of baked goods.
It's a great place to have a solo coffee or meet with friends. If you're looking to have your coffee to stay, just be aware that it's a very popular spot and seating can be tight!
The coffee is great, and they have extensive options for syrups as well, including many that are sugar free. Today I had an americano misto and it was excellent, a great espresso flavour nicely balanced with a perfect amount of steamed milk.
I tried their "everything but the kitchen sink" muffin for the first time as well, but found it a bit underwhelming. While it was nice and moist with a lovely coconut topping, the batter was very plain and overwhelmed the muffin- it felt a bit light on the add-ins.
