When a baby doesn’t get its bottle, the result is a lot of crying, shrieking and the angry flailing of miniature fists. Even more lethal, when a grown up doesn’t get their coffee fix, it causes a wrath of sobbing and howling that leaves behind trails of upturned tables and popped birthday balloons. Avoid this roastless rage with today’s warm, rich WagJag: $10 for a $20 gift certificate to Waves Coffee House. This voucher must be redeemed at the 17th Avenue location, but the card may be used at any Waves location in Alberta.

Waves Coffee House brews the freshest of caffeinated beverages and serves a comforting collection of snack-sized treats. Their organic coffee blend placates philanthropic drinkers with its fair trade, sustainable background, bringing together good taste and good business. Wet your whistle with something classic or alternative - like the London Fog, a vanilla-infused Earl Grey tea, or a Matcha Frappe, antioxidant-rich and blended with ice cream and tea extract. A host of other hot, blended and iced fluids are available.

The modern cafe setting hosts an intoxicating, freshly-brewed aroma and cozy atmosphere. Grab your cup of Joe to go on a busy morning or plunk down on a soft couch or armchair to coddle yourself with slow sips of the sweet nectar we call coffee. The joint is great for peaceful alone time, a catch-up session with friends or even a small meeting with co-workers.
