We partner with local partners and “all-star” line-up of Saskatoon-based local and international food artisans to bring you fresh pastries, sweets, foods and refreshments.
In addition, we have made it a point to offer Saskatoon the very best from around the world. Our fair trade hand-selected, single source, organic coffee comes via Belgium, where Rombouts coffee is the preferred choice of the Belgian Royal Court. Our variety of decadent, preservative-free hot chocolates come from the very best sources from Italy. Our European mini-cakes are delivered made to order.
While we try to rotate our offerings, our patrons demand that we keep many staples a constant. We want to ensure that no two visits are the same for you…so you can find something new and exotic with every trip to Botté Chai Bar. We suggest ordering a variety of items, and share them family style. Noosheh Jaan – may it be sustenance for your soul!
