Where to Eat in Edmonton
See All Lists
1. Blue Plate Diner
Blue Plate, you're just like dinner at gramma's: complete with the creaky, circa 1975 chairs and a tiled floor (tiled like industrial kitchen tile). It's not fancy, water served in a mason jar style... it's homey, and that's it's allure. It's okay to…More »
2. Three Bananas Cafe
If you're thinking of hunkering down for any length of time, this is a great spot. Large windows fill the space with daylight. Tables (high tops, four tops and loungy chairs) give social gatherings or solo workerbees a choice for their cabooses.…More »
3. Sunterra Market
This would be better if I was better equipped and knowledgeable about how this space worked, which would've been clearer had I just kept my mouth shut and walked in to explore. Instead, I inquired with the gatekeeper, aka the cashier, asking if I…More »
4. The Hat
Don't let the narrow front turn you away. In the back there's a few large communal style tables, perfect for rubbing elbows with a new friend or two at this sports bar slash lounge.
But more importantly than the large draft selection and the…More »
5. Block 1912
Edmonton, AB T6E 1Z9
(780) 433-6575
Categories:
Bakeries,
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt,
Coffee & Tea
I like a place that lets you camp out all day long. It almost feels like home with quick speed wireless. But while you could camp out all day long, surf you could not, sans big battery life. Not one plug in the place... reason told: computers could…More »
6. Jasper Bar and Grill
Yes, an airport bar. Hockey game on. Groups of friends saying hellos and goodbyes. Slightly bustling servers and a menu that caused me a laugh... I almost took a picture... almost.
Devoting an entire page to how "healthy" the menu is, it described…More »
7. Cafe Dabar - CLOSED
Large mochas on Mondays are Medium size priced! You heard it here first folks! And by large, I really mean large.
Cafe Dabar is a clean and quiet pit stop or lounge out with quick wi-fi and plugs -- hooray. For me, it screamed "hang out for a while!"…More »
8. Credo Coffee
Grinding Intelligentsia beans, I'd *bean* wanting to spend some serious time here. The space is hopping, meetings happening, ideas percolating, stories sharing. The wi-fi marches to the beat of a good drum and the staff is snap-snap on top of it.…More »
9. Flirt Cupcakes
When E-town's Community Manager, Brittany told me that Flirt had Flavours of the Month at Flirt, I thought it sounded like fun. When she said January's flavour was Chai, I believe my reaction was a gasp, followed quickly by me demanding to get these…More »
10. Health Fare Restaurant - CLOSED
Bright green broccoli, crispy veggies, brown rice and chunks of chicken. A selling point for my peanut lime rice bowl might have been it's heart healthiness, but I don't think that matters as much as its freshly-freshed-freshness.
HealthFare might be…More »
11. The King & I Thai Cuisine
Tom Yam, you spiced up my night and my life! The broth was exactly what I was yearning for as I fight my way through a tickle in my throat. And the mushrooms, carrots, cauliflower and beans added a crunch and a hearty dose of veggies.
Dining with a…More »
12. MRKT
Edmonton in the wintertime is a good time to get your soup on. And that is just what I did at my first foray into Mrkt. The space is just my speed. Long bar, cute booths, eco-ish and modern. It would be a hot-rocking-bar at night if I had it my way.…More »
13. The Pourhouse Bier Bistro
Past the overturned "Corona Slurpees" at Julios, dodging the bros fist bumping, there's the Pourhouse. A beacon of light for a west coast spoiled girl with a penchant for fruity beers.
What I found truly remarkable about The Pourhouse was the layout…More »
14. Famoso Neapolitan Pizzaria
What an interesting concept: read the menu at the table, remember your table number, order at the counter, sit down and they bring it to you. Why don't the servers just take the orders? Whatever...
This is a cool spot. The red brick oven that triumphs…More »
