First off, the service was top notch. Rafaelle (spelling?) made sure our water was topped off at all times and checked up on us in perfect intervals. He really made our experience great.

Stopped in for a quick treat and stayed for the good vibes. Big props to our bartender cherry who was not only providing us with amazing service but also about 6 or 7 other tables all her herself. Seriously impressive!!!!

I had the loveliest Afternoon Tea at Prologue Café!The atmosphere was cozy and elegant, with such attention to detail.The tea selection was fantastic, and every bite - especially the scones and delicate pastries - was delicious.The service was warm and attentive without being overbearing. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into the whole experience.

Enjoyed a delicious and tasty lunch at the Prologue Café. Restaurant is part of the Dorian Hotel on the 1st floor. Received friendly and excellent service! Would go back again!

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary with afternoon tea at Prologue Cafe in Calgary, and we honestly had such a lovely time. The petite fours were delicate and delicious, and the tea selection had so many wonderful options to choose from. We especially enjoyed the sandwiches and all the sweet treats served with the high tea, everything felt thoughtfully prepared and special. It was such a cozy, memorable experience and a perfect way to celebrate together.
