1886 Buffalo is our family business that we have owned and operated for over 40 years. We take pride in celebrating Calgary's history while serving home-style comfort dishes that are made with high quality ingredients that we strive to get from local artisans. We specialize in breakfast but have expanded our menu recently to include lunch and dinner fare
We are focused on making our guests feel like they are at home while being out on the town as well. Every single person who walks through our doors is considered family - from our guests to our staff. Comfort food has always been our style. Yes we like to keep up with the food trends but it really is all about comfort for us
My dad Blaise was a district manager for a large manufacturing company and therefore traveled extensively. Blaise never ever had trouble finding a great dinner or lunch but he was always challenge to find a good breakfast. One weekend, he discovered 1886 Buffalo Café right in Calgary. He fell in love with the fabulous breakfast, friendly service and the heritage ambience so much so that within 6 months of his first visit, he bought 50% of the company and eventually he became sole owner
