I love Elm Cafe. I was so excited when it opened. No more Second Cup for this girl! Their coffee is great, the sandwiches are delicious, the muffins are tasty, the service is friendly. I highly recommend it. My only issue with the place is that it's…More »
Luzzara is a gem. Unlike most other places in town, you can expect an interesting conversation when you stop by here (although don't stop by expecting to get some work done like in other coffeeshops). It's a refreshing change from the impersonal,…More »
I'd heard about Luzzara on the intertubes, and decided to stop by for a bit to do some work while I… Read more »
I think Sequel (CASH ONLY!) is now at the top of my list for downtown lunch destinations. It is located in the building kitty-corner to Churchill Square, with just a little sign out front on the sidewalk to let you know it's there. There's a couple…More »
Transcend just keeps getting better and better. This is their third location, where Axis used to be on Jasper Ave. I never made it to Axis, so I can't comment on how much it's changed inside, but given how quickly they opened up, I'm impressed with…More »
Duchess is definitely worth a try, or two, or three.... or more?
On my second visit, a friend and I bought 6 (ok maybe 7) items between us to share. Everything was fantastic. It's great to have a bakery like this in Edmonton, we're definitely lacking…More »
This is my favourite Second Cup in town. The employees are super friendly, and they have great window seating with lots of plug ins for laptops and excellent people watching. I think most of my thesis has been written here. (Maybe I shouldn't have…More »
Places like Remedy are fairly common in bigger cities, but I think this place is fairly unique in Edmonton. (If you know of other similar places, I'd love to hear about them!)
They serve coffees, chai, indian food, desserts and a small selection of…More »
Cram Dunk wins the SUB coffee competition for me. You get more coffee for less dollars than Java Jive, but it's still fair trade and usually pretty decent, unlike Subway.
I'm also a pretty bit fan of the Subnut. Indecisive? How about a big cinnamon…More »
After a hard day of grocery shopping at the Italian Centre, I like to treat myself to an espresso and a cannoli here. I haven't ventured out to try anything else they offer yet, but it all looks delicious.
The atmosphere here is nice too, and if you…More »
Bistro 112 deserves some credit for staying open across the street from a Second Cup and a couple blocks away from Starbucks (and another Second Cup). The biggest draw for me here is coffee and baked goods for less than across the street, with the…More »
Mmm chai... I'm a big Remedy fan, but now that I'm not in school anymore, I don't find myself on the south side of the river much and I was really missing it.
This new location doesn't quite have the atmosphere of the southside, but the food and…More »
This cafe feels a bit out of place in City Center mall, but I like it. Their sandwiches are ok, although a bit pricey. They have good coffee, a full bar, and they sell Baci chocolate bars which seem like the most amazing thing ever. They also have…More »
I've been going to this Starbucks more often since the Second Cup across the street closed, and I've always found the staff here particularly friendly and helpful. I've even got a free latte when they were out of my first choice, and I went with what…More »
Considering I've been here for brunch 3 weekends in a row, plus some evening snack visits, it's probably time for me to update my review.
The staff here continue to be amazing.. so welcoming and friendly, and the food is delicious. I'm still in love…More »
Fresh Cafe opened up not too long ago, just around the corner from my apartment, and filling a… Read more »
