It’s the end of one chapter and the beginning of another in Highlands. The Mandolin years have been good ones and we will all carry special memories of this place. Goodbye ❤️

Hello friends and neighbours! September is flying by and, already, next week will be Mandolin's last. Starting Monday, September 16th, the store will be on reduced hours of operation.

Please note that, while Sunday will be the last day of in service dining, we will continue to serve whatever stock we have available during the final week for take out. We encourage you to come to store and buy that latte or grab a scone while supplies last and to also say farewell to the store, staff and Lianne. We look forward to seeing you all next week ❤️

One question we've been getting is: "Where do I buy coffee beans when you close?!" We have compiled a list of (most) locations around Edmonton that sell a selection.

If you are looking for somewhere close to Highlands, Felice Cafe is the spot! Nestled in Stadium Yard, Felice is a lovely little cafe with tasty treats and coffee!

(Cafe La Reine's address is: 8927D 82 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB, T6C 0Z2)

By now, you may all know of Mandolin's closure and the support from our friends and neighbours has been incredibly heartwarming. We are presenting our latest chance for you to share your love of Mandolin with an auction.

This is an opportunity for anyone and everyone who loves Mandolin to bid on their favourite item of memorabilia to take home as a keepsake. Whether it's an antique, a pottery coffee mug, or a vintage chair, all the unique decor and furniture that has made Mandolin so cozy is available for auction. Ten percent of the profits will be donated towards the new Highlands Community League Hall.

Please note that the auction will go live September 1st and you can access the page through the QR code in the image or the link below. Thank you, from Lianne and her team for all the support ❤️

ICYMI: CTV did a touching news segment on Mandolin last night. There is a video in the link!

For more than 20 years, a unique book and coffee shop has been tucked away in Edmonton's Highlands neighbourhood.
