It's worth disclosing that a close friend of mine works here and this is how I found myself at Lock Stock. I'm picky about my coffee, but not so picky that I'm unwilling to risk a bad cup. I love taking my friends' suggestions... I'm just glad that I didn't have to feign enjoyment with my experience at Lock Stock. The space is quiet and well curated - not kitschy or tacky or overwhelming - and even though this space is technically in a basement, the lighting feels welcoming and cozy. The espresso is pulled well and they use beans (Ace roasters, I think?) that really please my palate. Not acidic, not flowery, and a perfect medium. Prices are expected for a contemporary cafe like this. I didn't try the food, nothing particularly enticed me for lunch as I'm not a huge fan of sandwiches, but I'd like to return for dinner and drinks in the evening when it's Red Star. So, yes, get your coffee here if you're in the heart of downtown. It's well worth it, and makes for a delightful place to work or chat or just take a break.

Such a cool hidden gem on Jasper. I’ve wanted to visit for a couple years, and it didn’t disappoint! Love the old wood and unique atmosphere. Friendly baristas. Enjoyed a well balanced latte with smooth espresso paired with quality Elmhurst almond milk. My father had a hot chocolate, which looked to be steamed with dark chocolate chunks (maybe not for those with extreme sweet tooth’s, but perfect for the dark chocolate connoisseurs). They are also on top of the covid precautions, with plexi glass, disinfecting and hand sanitizer. It doesn’t appear to have wifi, but I may be wrong. Plenty of pay parking, or find somewhere residential and take a 15 walk, like we did.
I have only been here in the mornings a few times, so I only had the chance to try out a few of their breakfast sandwiches and coffee. While simple in presentation, you can really taste the flavour of all the ingredients. For instance, the subtle sweetness of the house-made tomato jam stands out with the savoury taste of the meat. Americano is pretty much what you would expect as well. Service is also pretty quick, and the workers are friendly. I’ll definitely be back to try out some more, especially some of their fresh baked goods. Also worth mentioning it’s quite interesting to visit the place during the day when comparing it to the bar atmosphere of Red Star during pre-pandemic nights. When restrictions aren’t in place, it can be a nice getaway for productivity settling in one of the booths.
Super cute and great drinks. I had the lok bagel and it was FANTASTIC
My favourite cafe in Edmonton! Excellent espresso drinks and the best breakfast sandwiches. Great atmosphere inside too.
