Experience the flavours of Europe at The Cup 'n Saucer in Downtown Lethbridge








WATCH THIS VIDEO


NOTE: The Cup 'n Saucer has closed for business.

Sarah talks to us about the inspiration behind The Cup 'n Saucer and why she and her partners have brought a taste of Europe to downtown Lethbridge. Sarah and Marga decided to open their restaurant because they wanted to have a place where they could go for a nice coffee in a proper cup and saucer and enjoy some of the comfort foods and treats that they miss from their native countries of England and The Netherlands.

Marga is passionate about cooking while Sarah enjoys meeting and pampering their customers. Their extensive menu includes a wide-variety of dishes - full English breakfast which includes bacon, eggs, sausage, black pudding, mushrooms, tomatoes and beans; full Canadian breakfast which includes bacon, eggs, sausage, hashbrowns and toast; Dutch pancakes served with either syrup, cheese, meat or veggies; steak and kidney pies; chicken and mushroom pies; Dutch kebab (shoarma); fish and chips with mushy peas or coleslaw; fresh pastries and much, much more.

Besides their extensive menu and exceptional service, The Cup 'n Saucer also puts together a number of special events for their loyal customers. They host English pub-style quiz nights where customers are invited to put together teams for an evening of fun and laughs. Every six weeks they also put on a full British-style Sunday dinner. Tickets are sold in advance for a full-course meal comprised of roast beef, roasted or mashed potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, vegetables, gravy and desert - apple crumble with custard, coffee and chocolate mints ... now that's a meal!

However, if you're just looking for a place to go after a bit of shopping, you can relax and visit over The Cup & Saucer's wide selection of coffee and tea. They offer locally roasted coffee provided by Cuppers, as well as imported Italian coffee by Lavazza. If you're too busy to leave the office, they also offer a catering and delivery service that includes a selection of sandwiches, wraps, salads, sweets and beverages. After work, The Cup 'n Saucer is a great place to sit back and unwind over a bottle of European beer or a glass of wine.

So, if you're looking for a great little restaurant with lots of charm, character and excellent food, make sure to check out The Cup 'n Saucer at 309 - 7 Street South - Phone 403 317-7797.
