Humble Beginnings Lead to Rapid Success

Our story begins in the fall of 1993, when I opened our first espresso bar in Tijuana, Mexico. At the time, I had realized there was no one else providing the high-quality espresso drinks I had grown accustomed to enjoying in cafes just over the border in San Diego.

Our espresso bar was the first of its kind in the area—and it quickly became a success. Eventually, we found ourselves as the go-to specialty espresso bar and lounge, frequented by several generations of the city’s most passionate coffee lovers.

Nearly 25 years later, destiny has brought us to Canada. Although we’re now in a brand-new place, we maintain our desire to create the rich espresso drinks that made us famous back in Mexico.

Above all else, we aim to offer the best-quality ingredients as we craft your tea, espresso and chocolate drink experience—each and every time. At SOLE, we stand behind all our products. If, for any reason, you’re not completely satisfied with your purchase, just let us know. We’ll make it right.

Giving back

We dream of making a difference in the world and are extremely passionate about giving to those who are less fortunate than we are. As a socially conscious company that shares in its success, a portion of our sales go to nonprofit organizations that support important causes.

Discover the SOLE difference

We believe there’s no use in keeping a good thing secret. That’s why we’ve decided to share our ingredients with everyone who has enjoyed our beverages in the past, along with those we are confident will quickly become fans of our products.

We take great pride in developing an extensive selection of some of the most aromatic, flavorful and high-quality teas available. In fact, we use coffee beans that produce the smoothest, most palatable espresso you’re likely to find anywhere in the world. And, we use an artisan-crafted version of Mexican chocolate that gives our chocolate-based drinks the truly unique flavor profile for which we’ve become so well known.

These products are now available for you to enjoy in the comfort of your own home. We invite you to experience the SOLE difference for yourself!

You can also visit us at our espresso bar Caffé Sole located at 9911 72 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB, and try all our teas and signature drinks.
