See All Lists
1. Good Earth Coffeehouse & Bakery
Possibly my favourite coffee shop in the city. Big selection of baked goods - scones, muffins, cookies - that aren't necessarily good for you, but good to eat! Take your coffee and treat to the table of your choice, too. It's usually busy, but it's…More »
2. Original Joe's
Whether you are heading out for a casual dinner or late-night drinks, this location of Original Joe's consistently serves yummy food for a reasonable price, without music blasting right in your ear at full volume. I also love love LOVE that the…More »
3. The Movie Studio
The Movie Studio has all of your typical mainstream movies available for rent, plus a huge selection of indie and foreign films. They even have a few racks of rentals set aside for their "alternative" movie collection (think a ton of independent Bill…More »
4. Subway
If I'm in the mood for something quick and healthy, I usually run over to this location of Subway. At peak hours, a line-up can form because of its proximity to the University of Alberta and the U of A hospital. But the staff here are friendly and…More »
5. Leva Cappucino Bar
Plenty of bike parking and conveniently located just a block from the University of Alberta. The lattes here are priced higher-than-average ($5!), but they're worth it!
Make sure to try the pizza for a yummy lunch (I recommend the spinach and feta),…More »
6. Garneau Theatre
The first place to check out if you're looking for the hot indie flick of the moment, plus some more mainstream films occasionally. The theatre set-up is so cool. A lower level of flat seating, and an upper level behind the theatre entrance that…More »
7. Rodeo Burgers
I had pretty low expectations for Rodeo Burger going in, thinking it was just another fast-food burger joint. Dang, was I wrong! For a moderate price you can get a ton of food - a big burger, and don't skip on the fries, either. They are very yummy.

8. Mac's Convenience Stores
Open 24 hours (even over the Christmas season), Mac's is a convenient (haha!) store for grocery basics, your candy fix, or a magazine.
Most items are pricier here than a typical grocery store, but with its location right on 87th ave, it's closer to…More »
9. Sugar Bowl
Edmonton, AB T6G 0Z1
(780) 433-8369
Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Canadian (New),
Breakfast & Brunch
Just visited Sugarbowl for a dinner/dessert night out with friends, and I could NOT believe we were able to get a table on a Saturday night. Whether for breakfast, dinner, lunch, or late night drinks, a table at the Sugarbowl is hard to come by…More »
10. The Greenhouse
I would say that The Greenhouse is a secret indulgence for me, but with a menu of healthy healthy treats, it's not much very indulgent, and I don't keep it particularly secret!
My favourite salad here is the Sol Caesar. It has a light but creamy…More »
11. Transcend Coffee
What with Edmonton being one of the sunniest cities in Canada and all, the folks at Transcend seem to know what they're doing by installing massive windows along the front of their 109th street location. You can't sip a latte in Transcend without…More »
12. Mandarin Restaurant
I am a huge fan of Mandarin Restaurant! A quiet, family-owned place (adorable toddlers and all) that has a menu bursting at the seams with flavourful Chinese fare.
Two friends and I picked the "Dinner for Three" option - three full entrees of our…More »
13. Kyoto Japanese Cuisine
This was one of the first places I ever (reluctantly) tried sushi. (I grew up with a brother allergic to seafood, OK?) Even before I ever went down the raw fish route, I still liked Kyoto because of their great bento selections. 'Fraid of the fish? I…More »
14. Remedy Cafe
I stopped by Remedy Cafe for a late-night snack and coffee with a friend. The crowd is hip and young - a lot of university students finishing papers (free wi-fi!) and chatting philosophy. It's a great place to do some people watching.
I tried a vegan…More »
15. Safeway
If you're looking for a typical selection of food for higher-than-average prices, this Safeway is the place to go. I can usually find most of the items on my grocery list when I visit here. Even the organic and vegetarian section here isn't shabby (a…More »
16. Hudsons
If you're looking for a good pub with a full menu and beer that is flowing, Hudsons on Campus is a safe bet. With two levels (main floor and basement), there is plenty of seating, although the place really fills up on game nights.
The food here is…More »
17. Champ's Sports Bar & Grill
A pretty standard sports bar kind of place. It's a small-ish bar, but has the kind of atmosphere that encourages standing and mingling, so it works out OK.
The beer is always flowing here with the younger crowd of university-types. Other drinks are…More »
18. Avenue Pizza & Lounge
Avenue Pizza can be pretty hit or miss. A great place for after-work pizza and drinks, watching the game, or late-night partying. The pizza here is hot, if a bit slow to arrive to the table, but always on-taste.
It is also a good place for the pizza…More »
19. Urban Diner II
I enjoyed my first foray into the Urban Diner experience. Sunny yellow walls? Check. Super happy staff? Check! It was a long wait for the late lunch, and the disorganization of the place didn't help much, but I think that can be chalked up to the…More »
20. Beez Healthy Fast Food
No time between classes for a knife-and-fork kind of meal, but require something to keep you going? Beez is where it's at.
The name says it all - fast food that's healthy, too. A selection of fruity shakes to keep your energy levels up on your walk to…More »
21. Garneau Pub
Walk in here knowing what you're getting yourself into, and you're going to have a hell of a night.
It doesn't matter if you're a college student out for post-exam libations or part an older pack, just here for the pool tables and slot machines.
The…More »
22. Phobulous
Even as the not-greatest fan of pho, I still really like Phobulous. The location is just right and I love the big window along the front wall with the bar-style seating. It's the best spot to sit if you're just stopping in for a lunch by yourself.
…More »
23. Happy Joe's Pizza
This spot is kind of run down, but on a hot summer night when I lived in Garneau, there was nowhere I would have rather been for a pizza and cold beer on the patio. (Well, that's not entirely true, but it wasn't so bad.)
It's a pub at heart, but the…More »
24. Badass Jack's Subs & Wraps Company
I've only ever tried the Chicken Caesar Wrap at BAJ because it's the one thing on the menu that consistently appeals to me. Visiting this location last night was my first time in a BAJ in a couple of years, and I seem to remember there being way more…More »
25. City Arts Centre
I've just begun my second class at the City Arts Centre and I love it.
A couple of years ago I signed up for a painting class. I'm not super artsy or craftsy but I like having a hobby. The acrylic painting class was awesome. We were able to choose our…More »
26. Ponytails + Horseshoes
I just had the best salon experience of my life.
I need to give a bit of backstory, which I swear will have a point: I went to the same stylist, Danielle, for 6 years. She was amazing. Then she moved to Toronto, and since then I've been bouncing…More »
