Edelweiss Village

We have heard a lot about this place and finally came to check it out. It is exactly like a village as its name suggests. It has so much to offer, from unique European gifts to German baked goods to deli items to a dining room/takeout station with hot food. It definitely made us feel like we were in a mini European village...they got good vibes here. We bought a few items including some deli items, a cool cookie cutter, a few hot chocolate packs, and some hot food to try. Some items are a bit pricey but hopefully it's worth it. I am looking forward to see how the German cookie cutter works. We tried the pork schnitzel and mild bratwurst. Both were good but the bratwurst definitely had more flavour. We will visit again later if we need to get a feeling of Europe again.

Quaint European exterior. I love the hybrid concept of a cafe, butchery/deli, gift shop, grocer in a single establishment. The staff were asking if I needed help finding anything and seemed very friendly and lovely. Definitely will revisit to try the eats.

Fantastic selection all year round but this year's Easter treats are exceptional! Love the international food selection and wonderful service. This is truly a Calgary treasure. #yyc

A magical place Visiting this store just before Christmas for the first time gave me probably the best possible impression. The store is filled with the most beautiful baked goods, meals, Christmas decorations, ceramics, baking and cooking utensils, sweets and even some remedies - everything original from Western Europe Germany, Austria, Holland etc. I was mainly blown away by their cookie cutter selection, but found other gems like molten wine spice and a Marzipan Stollen as well.

Visited this place upon recommendation by my Auntie in-law. The establishment is really nicely located and quite pretty from the outside. Inside is super clean, and I REALLY enjoyed the selection of gorgeous hand made steins and cuckoo clocks! We had a bit of food too: schnitzel, Rouladen, and some Black Forest cake. The highlight was certainly the cake, the rest was just alright. I also managed to find some Dutch peppermints that I really enjoy, and remind me of my youth. What a fun nostalgic place for me to visit!

This is not just a store. It is a destination shopping experience. It is like a instant trip to Europe. Sure I could buy some of their items other places but I am willing to pay a bit more to support the atmosphere they have created here. The food is also outstanding! Go here when you need a mini vacation!

RUDE STAFF AND OVERPRICED ITEMS. As a German myself, I am very disappointed. The food/grocery items are not just a little overpriced. Because I frequently travel to Germany, I am very familiar with brands and prices. On top of that the quality is more than disappointing too. The Cheesecake has no flavor at all. Furthermore, most of the staff is very rude and not willing to help whatsoever. I wont be going back there anymore. Luckily Calgary has other amazing European food stores that are reasonable priced and almost have the same selection.

Big store with a huge selection of everything European, a lot of decorations, clocks etc. They also have a bakery. I love their Christmassy shelves and the atmosphere - it feels magical! It was very busy but still well stocked and tidy. The staff at the tills speak German.

Great selection of German foods and products. The deli and bakery are amazing. Huge selection of deli meats, cheeses, breads and desserts. Delicious lunch menu makes it tough to pass up.

Having lived in Berlin for almost 6-years this small place definitely brings me back. The food, the decoration and the occasional German from some of their staff. Highly recommend it, go for a coffee and have a treat you won't regret it.
