If there's anyone who tells you not to check this place out, they'd have to be checked into a mental clinic!

Give me an old theatre with a beautiful marquee and I'm a happy man! Princess theatre is an extremely old theatre, built in 1915 and given that Edmonton was established as a city in 1904, just going for a movie here transports you to the early…More »

I must certainly add that after going there a few more times, I've had the opportunity to try out the food. Trust me, their savory meat pies are just terrific (you could easily get addicted to the beef and mushroom pie).
Also, it's worth adding…More »

There's no real reason to not give Jojo's coffee bar at La Piazza Dasee a full 5 star rating. A very spacious cafe with comfortable furniture, free wifi, several plug points, great menu of eats and coffees, including the spiked varieties, airy,…More »
Sunterra is a true gem of a grocery store. I wish I was shopping here more often. Firstly, it's a co-op grocery store in that it is made up of the owners of Sunterra farms, a group of individually run farms around parts of Alberta.
While they offer…More »
D'Lish is an elegant & modern wine & tapas bar that serves a unique menu. Although tapas are originally a spanish idea, the theme of the menu shows phenomenal adaptation. Unlike other modern loungey places that have a great décor and music serving…More »
Battista serves up a menu of 4 calzones from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. everyday, except Sunday. I went with Liv V.'s suggestion and got the Classico calzone which consists of delicious Canadian mozzarella oozing out of the bread pocket, green & red peppers,…More »
I've become a regular at this Transcend over the last six months or so, so much so that a couple of the staff know that my favorite drink is the Flat White. Of course, my morning cup still remains the clover coffee and I always spend a couple of…More »
Transcend has a very specific goal - serve a masterful cup of coffee. The prices are about a dollar… Read more »
Woohoo! No complaints here. The thing is that it's not really a high end bistro with great plating techniques and chef hats that cost thousands of dollars.
It's just an awesome little bistro on the High Street that serves really nice food. Went…More »
Sequel is a completely adorable cafe that serves a modern, almost Californian menu of lunch options. From delicious sounding unheard of stuff like cream of cauliflower soup, to sausage calzones, veggie burritos and a lot more!

Oooooh mama maaa! Duchess bakery is certainly the duchess of my heart. I have no clue how they do it, but they make such delicious and seemingly guilt free (although I'm sure my bulging equator would disagree) baked goods, be it buttery light…More »
Luzzara is a true class-act and certainly something that every neighborhood cafe should strive to achieve. Sarah, the owner, is friendly and happy to entertain her customers and creates an atmosphere that is really unmatched with anything else that…More »
I went to Luzzara for the first time today and boy, can't wait to hang out again, whenever I get a… Read more »
Although Notables is technically a stationery store, it has so much in it that one could keep visiting this place for a long time. My work requires a lot of the use of pencils, pens and paper; Notables has the best collection of stationery in…More »
I'm glad that this block of Whyte ave has somehow remained primarily small business driven. It's probably that last beacon of hope! Coral de Cuba recently opened and I had to opportunity to make it with a few friends, amongst which was my friend…More »
It's hard to not give High Voltage a 5 star rating. They're basically a gyros/falafel/donair place with also a few options for sandwiches served on white buns. They have Montreal smoked meat too, but I'm not sure if I'd have it out here simply…More »
