Explore Our MenuOur Journey, One Cup at a Time
From a simple dream to Edmonton's beloved gathering place
The Spark
It started with a question: "Why can't Edmonton have a café that feels like home?" Two friends, a shared vision, and countless late-night conversations over espresso.
The Roastery
We partnered with local Alberta roasters, perfecting our signature blends. Hundreds of taste tests later (yes, we were very caffeinated), Elvirax was born.
Opening Day
Despite the challenges, we opened our doors. The community showed up, and suddenly, we weren't just serving coffee—we were building connections.
Your Third Place
Five years, thousands of conversations, and countless smiles later, Elvirax has become what we always dreamed: a place where everyone belongs.
