This is a little coffee shop with great coffee, great selection of cheese and Sandwiches. There is also a mini market inside which you can find Coffee Beans, Pasta, Pasta Sauce, Olive Oil, etc. all imported from Europe.
The service is great in there, staff very welcoming.

If I could give 0 stars I would, the guy who was working was incredibly rude and when I asked for no mayo on my sandwhich he freaked out and told me it wasn’t a subway. He then told the sandwhich maker (who was really nice) not to make what I asked because it was a «bastard sandwhich» (his words). I will not be coming back to this place nor would I ever recommend it to anyone. Working in the service industry myself i know to do whatever the customer asks and this experience was overall shocking to me.

Great neighborhood coffee shop! The cheese selection is amazing but yes sometimes they have had issues restocking the better ones. Love the espresso they stock from Fratello roasters. There is also a selection of food including items from the famous Valbella deli in Canmore. This place is a gem!

I love this little place! Great coffee, great service and great food! Too bad it’s so far out of my way, otherwise I would be there more often.
My #1 concern when going to a coffee shop is if they offer dairy free alternative. Francesco’s has two, both soy and almond. Score! No milkmageddon for me today.
#2 concern: is the coffee delicious? The answer is yes. Yes it is. Get in my belly.
Now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s talk about the food offerings. They have a huge selection of delectable-​sounding cheeses. Oh how I wish I could eat cheese. Then there is the deli meat that comes from Scarpone’s (a local Italian market). Then, there is sausages and meats, from Valbella, a gourmet food place in Canmore. Then, there is Take Home stuff, made in-​house, like Mac n cheese fondue and lasagne. Then, there are sandwiches. It just doesn’t end.
So many cheesy things I can’t eat but want to, so many temptations. I have to go back. I have no choice.

I host a grilled cheese club at work and was looking forward to Francesco’s «large selection of fine cheeses», yet there were only a dozen cheeses in total. Regardless, the staff was really helpful and able to describe any one, and offered samples. I was happy with the cheese and meat she helped me select, so I’ll have to go back to try the coffee and sandwiches!

Francesco’s is a sweet and cozy little neighbourhood café/​deli. I went in on Good Friday, and ordered the most delicious veggie panini, and americano. The young man working by himself was super friendly, and let us stay and hang out without rushing us, despite the fact that he could have probably closed earlier, since it was a holiday.
The have some amazing looking pastas in the freezer, that I’ll have to go back for at another time. Calgary could do with a dozen more local places like Francesco’s.

This little Café has gone through an amazing transformation over the last six months.
The renovations have added class and comfort, the hot lattes, fresh scones and aromatic coffees are first rate, not to mention that the selection of wholesome eggs, chickens, fresh deli meats, cheeses and other authentic Italian foods are guaranteed to stock your kitchen with goodness!
The owner is personable and always willing to share a recipie if you are looking for inspiration for dinner. The seating area is cozy and it has wifi.
I feel so lucky to have this business in my neighbourhood. Can’t recommend them enough!

Bought fresh pizza dough here on Sunday. It was so fresh, it had been made an hour before we picked it up. I wish I had waited to get cheese and meats. The prices looked great! The owner so friendly and helpful. Will be going back often.

Nice little deli in my part of town. Great meats and cheeses. Great sandwiches, soups and coffee. I hope that these owners make a success of this store and add a little more goods and produce. I am itching to give them 5 stars once they are truly settled.
Go for a coffee if nothing else. They bring in their own roasted beans.

The frozen pizza dough is incredible. (I would definitely give them a 5 if they had wholewheat). Unfortunately Francesco is a white crust purist.
Try the meats, cheeses and Mario’s gelato.

Francesco’s Italian Market and Deli is an unassuming little shop with a lot more to offer than you might expect. The authentic market has all the elements needed to create your own Italian masterpiece at home. The deli boasts a wide variety of cured Italian meats (Capicola, Mortadella, etc) and a large selection of fine cheeses. The shelves are lined with premium Italian canned goods (no Chef Boyardee here!) and a vast assortment of dried pastas and olive oils. If you don’t want to cook, not to worry, as the fridge is stocked with a variety of already prepared pastas and homemade sauces, so all you have to do is heat n’ eat. If you just have to eat right away, that’s no problem either, as the deli offers fresh made sandwiches that you can munch on at one of the few tables they have upfront.
Viva Italia!

A delectable and decent Italian delicatessen.

Located in Killarney, Francesco’s Italian Food Store & Deli carries everything for that Italian inside of you.
Famous for their home-​made tomato sauce, calzones, pizza dough, takeout dinners and pasta, Francesco’s stole my heart on my very first visit.
Their locally made frozen ravioli is to die for, as is their locally-​made Calgarian Pesto, and thier Italian and Canadian cold cuts & cheeses draw crowds from all over the city.
Open Tuesday through Saturday, and boasting some of the greatest service I“ve had in awhile, Francesco’s is one helluvah find.
