The place itself is quite small with minimal seating. I was able to snag the last table when I arrived. Similar to a coffee shop, you grab your own table and head to the till to make an order. They will deliver your order to your table. They have a wide selection of pastries and desserts as well as food items. They have a Ukrainian breakfast menu as well as an American breakfast menu. They also have a freezer with homemade frozen goods you can purchase. Prices are on par with most restaurants/coffee shops. Everything looked SO tasty, it was very hard to make a decision. I ended up getting a the mushroom egg toast that came with salad, potatoes, and I added a sausage on the side. The food was sooo good and extremely filling. The potatoes were AMAZING! I ate around 1 and didn't eat dinner that night since I was still full. I also ordered a lavender latte, and got a lemon blueberry cake to go. Their coffee was delicious and you could actually taste the lavender flavour. I've gone to some places where the flavouring was almost non-existent. The cake was also quite nice. Only thing I found was that the bottom was a bit overbaked. I am excited to come back and try some of their Ukrainian dishes.

We would definitely recommend trying the pierogies and the chicken cutlets with dill mashed potatoes! We have also been here for breakfast, and it was just as great. Not to mention all of the drinks like flat whites, cappuccinos, and all kinds of lemonades as well. Thanks Malinas!!

My #1 choice for a donair in the city. Large clean eating area. Just donairs on the menu. Donairs…read moredone right. I have taste tested sp many donairs over the years and this place outshines them all. The meat is more flavourful that other donair shops. Its not overly saucy so the donair doesnt get soggy or too messy. I like how they have so many options to customize your donair. More than any other donair shop in the city. Its a classic that always hits. The jumbo donair is so big...its actually as long as the tray they serve it on!! Definetly worth the drive out or going back for it over and over again.

Back for a third time, you'd think we liked this place. Proximity is nice, but for us the place has…read moreto perform and Homefire did it again. Rudy was as once again our server and he knocked it out of the park again. The bison meatloaf with mashed potatoes was excellent as was the salad that we also shared. Thankfully the Christmas decor is gone, but Valentine's Day is in full bloom lol. It's a five minute stroll from our hotel, which also has a restaurant, but we will be coming back again for a fourth time. Thanks Rudy!

We were in the west end around supper time. We decided to give this another go…read more It was very busy there for a Monday. The staff was friendly and fairly prompt considering how busy it was. The ambiance is nice and warm. Lots of selections, you can find something for everyone. There is an emphasis on wild game which is something unique. We all decided on pizza. For kiddo Country Ham and Pineapple -black forest ham, smoked bacon, fresh pineapple . For hubby The Carnivore - pepperoni, salami, ham, ground elk and for me MeatHead Bison Sausage- white sauce, bison sausage, peppers, onions, goat cheese, chili oil. It took awhile for the food to come out slowly. But we enjoyed it once it came. Decent size, and good amount of toppings. Nice crust. I could have used more chili oil to cut the richness of the white sauce but they were so busy, it was hard to find someone to give us our bill. In general a pleasant evening.

When you belong to the Campio club, once in a while you get some good offers. (You can join for…read morefree online). Recently they had a deal, buy one main meal and get one free. I jumped on the chance because I love the pizzas here. They have a soft doughy crust. So we ventured here for lunch. It wasn't too full, and it took a while for someone to notice and get us seated. We actually debated leaving, however finally they seated us, it was all good. (Hence why it looses a star). Atmosphere is pretty typical for a craft brewery. I am not a huge sports bar fan, and I was pleased to see that TVs were not a focus here. Menu is good. Lots of different things to try, but they are well known for their pizzas. Great selection of beers. Also an okay selection of cocktails and wine. I am on medication, so I tried a "near beer" can that they offered and I was pleased with the flavour. I wish they would have a non alcoholic that is more local on tap. Hubby because of driving went with a coke. We decided on two pizzas - PB & J which contained roasted pineapple, smoked bacon, fresh jalapeño, mozzarella, brick blend and the Animal Style -Ezzo pepperoni, seasoned beef, bacon, pizza sauce, crushed chilis, Grana Padano. Both came out hot and fresh and tasty. I enjoyed my toppings better, however my husband's pizza sauce was absolutely perfect. Service (once we were seated) was pleasant. We received some chocolate dipped strawberries as a customer appreciation gift and that was lovely. My goal is to try all the pizzas. Give it a go if you like Detroit style pizzas.

The brewpub has certainly been seeing its time in the sun for several years now with the popularity…read moreof microbreweries reaching its peak. Edmonton is no different than anywhere else in the fact that our restaurantscape has been dotted with more and more local breweries - which is cool and all - but the part that has caught my attention is the elevation and refinement that has also evolved. Gone are the days when the average pub is slinging a beer in your general direction and calling it a day. Now there are chefs involved, complete dining programs, and entire concepts. It's more than just a boozy good time (but it's also still that). One of the standouts in this game is Campio Brewing Co., which first opened its doors in 2018 and have since expanded to a second location. In a previous life the original restaurant operated as Characters Fine Dining for twenty some years, which is why the space might feel familiar. (I remember dining at Characters in my 20s and believing that it was the height of luxury.) Voted Best Brewpub 2025 by EDify Magazine, Campio has positioned itself as a reliable standby when it comes to beers and eats Downtown, and they ain't slowing down anytime soon. I visited on a Monday evening, only half realizing that it was also an Oilers home game night. At only a seven minute walk away from Rogers Place, you can be sure that the place will be positively packed with jersey-wearing fans, the majority of which who are grabbing a bite before gametime. This was absolutely the case during my visit, and while it was crowded there's something about the buzz of a hockey night that feels pretty special. Peering through the sea of blue and orange in the main dining area, it was clear that tables were at a premium. I had no idea that there was additional seating downstairs but quickly learned as the hostess lead the way down the stairs. The basement appears to be the brewery itself, lined with fermentation tanks and wooden aging barrels. The picnic-style tables are communal. While it's not as nice as upstairs and certainly feels like an overflow area, it is kind of neat to be sitting where all of the brewery magic happens. (Think of when you try to go camping but the campground is already full, so they just stick you in a big empty field with the rest of the extras.) The main upstairs dining area is expansive, rich in wood, and feels historic. You'll find exposed brick and the same epic wooden pillars that exist in many of the old buildings downtown. But the best table in the entire restaurant? That would be the elevator shaft room - now converted into a small dining area. The elevator buttons are still on the wall! Our server was super personable and friendly, genuinely seeming like she was having a good time. Campio is obviously known for their 16 rotating craft beers on draft brewed right in the restaurant itself. They also sell their beer in cans (covered in beautiful artwork) which can be found in liquor stores everywhere, as well as offsale at the brewery itself. My husband is a big fan of their seasonal Once in Oaxaca (a prickly pear horchata sour). I, myself, am not much of a beer drinker so I was pleased to find a list of house cocktails to choose from - way more my jam. The Iced Edmonton Fog (Baileys, Cointreau, Amaretto, walnut bitters, earl grey tea - $14.50) sounded really delicious and fun. (They also make beer cocktails!) The flavour profile of this drink is right up my alley! The combination of almond, walnut and earl grey sounds cozy and delicious! However, I found that I wanted even more flavour from each sip. The beverage tasted quite watered down and could've been more full-bodied. It did remind me a lot of a paralyzer though, which I was not mad at. The main concept at Campio is to fuse Edmonton's blue-collar nature and artistic flair into one, serving up whimsy and quality with diverse offerings. I do think that this shows a clear understanding of the clientele in this city and it points toward Campio's success. The menu is fresh, playful, and approachable, offering the kind of food that people actually want to eat in a brewpub today. They've got Fried Pepperoni (With honey mustard - $9.00) on the snacks part of the menu and I'm not one to refuse! A Halifax stable, Edmonton and this Maritime city seem to have a lot in common when it comes to cuisine (RE: the donair). Sliced paper-thin, each ruby-hued round is crispy like a chip. You could easily toss about 20 of these into your mouth and barely notice. I liked the tangy honey mustard to dip into. This dish is like the best part of a pizza without all of the unnecessary rest of it. I'd happily start my meal with these every time! For the main event Campio offers two types of choices; you can opt for a handheld (I've had their Korean Fried Chicken Sandwich before and that tall stack is a good time!) or you can order a Detroit deep dish pizza (which I feel is kinda their "signature thing.") Detroit-style pizza really blew up arou
