    It was only my second time to Sugarbowl in my many years in Edmonton. I don't really remember my first time though!! I had their mac and cheese and the lamb burger. Both were so very tasty, and did not disappoint. The ambiance of the restaurant is different than many places I've gone to. Being close to the University of Alberta main campus, many young students compose the clientele of Sugarbowl, but not limited to. The decor is very nice - brick walls and posters, and hand written beer menu, to name a few. Service was very good, professional, and friendly!! Overall good experience, and will return again in the future.

    Sugar bowl is a cozy friendly laid back neighborhood cafe!! The coffee is outstanding and the cinnamon roll ridiculously large and delicious. Service was outstanding too. Attentive and friendly. Pulled pork hash with cheese curds brilliant Well Dobe!!!

    Came here at 11AM on a Sunday. At first was warned it was 15-20minutes wait but had to wait 7minutes for a table to sit inside. Place is 100% full inside but there were patio tables still available. Problem was wasps were also outside and visibly bothering people. No wasps inside! Don't forget to register your license plate at the bar. Online menu has really clear good pictures. Staff are very friendly and never let my water go empty. We got the chicken and waffles. 9/10. Chicken is boneless and more like a schnitzel. Breading and flavor is 10/10. Watermelon salsa was great and I wish there was more. Carmel side dish was tasty but not very flavorful. My little cup was also bigger than my friend's which made him upset. Waffles were very meh. Overall I liked it more than I though I would, but the waffles were so boring I will try something else next time. In my personal option they needed to be cooked longer, needed a berry sauce and whipped cream or even bake them with ham and cheese or even just SOME flavor. I found them very bland and too soft for my liking.

    They are always busy -- and with good reason! It can get a tad cramped in the restaurant, but other than that the food is amazing and a favourite for me. Their drinks are also lovely. I heavily recommend trying this restaurant out, especially to try out their lovely ketchup.

    Got the chicken and waffles, delicious! Sat outdoors on the patio, nice environment, good service.

    Ok this place was awesome! If you're in Edmonton and want a breakfast/ brunch/ lunch place (not sure about dinner or evenings) that will keep you happy, you've came to the right place. We got there a bit too early and spent some time in the cute bakery open next door, and got in right as they were opening. The interior has an old western style bar look, one that they could easily use as a movie set with the right accompaniments. The food was great and was reco'd to me by both my nieces (locals) who frequent the place for their sister dates to catch up and enjoy a special meal. Great service! This was what clearly bumped up my review to 5 stars. It was the one thoughtful thing they did that was unforgettable. I just mumbled that the two of us wanted to share our orders and my friend nodded in agreement. So without any prompting they graciously served the two orders split up with our two servings! Fantastic and saved us fumbling around with the food and possibly making a mess. Thanks!!

    Chicken & Waffles ($19) Waffle topped with 2 fried & breaded chicken breasts, watermelon salsa, and maple butter $19 The service was really great amidst how busy the restaurant was for brunch! The maple butter was delicious and so were the thinly breaded chicken breasts. I enjoyed how filling the breakfast was, but I realized they only serve 3/4 of a waffle D: ... I think it's intentional because now that I'm looking at more pictures that's how they usually serve it

    Fran on the rocks!  Absolutely delicious and like nothing I have ever had before.

    The food did not disappoint! Plentiful portions, fresh clean foods, atmosphere was filled people socially having a good time and amazing Service! They were attentive yet not smothering. We will be coming back. Prices were very reasonable, left sated. Kitchen was clean and busy. Beautiful art on the walls.

    Cinnamon bun and pulled pork hash.

    Great spot with an awesome little patio. Seemed to be one of the few breakfast/brunch spots open early on the long weekend Monday. Only down side was they couldn't serve mimosas until 10am but had a lovely latte instead. The cinnamon bun was ginormous and very fresh. My husband had the pulled pork hash which was also delicious. It was a tad loud as it's a small restaurant but was manageable, and the patio was well covered.

    Giant cinnamon bun

    I've been coming here for brunch since I was in high school. My favourites are the huevos rancheros and of course the giant cinnamon bun. The huevos rancheros come with beans, deep fried tortillas, melted cheese and two poached eggs and is always delicious. I notice that their coffee has improved a great deal...they use Kaffa beans (a local roaster that opened up right next door). Service is always friendly and you can't beat the lively environment. On nice summer days, they open up the garage doors and offer quite a few patio tables.

    Feta cheese omelet @ Sugar Bowl
    Muhammad M.

    Went there recently for breakfast. Nice spot near university area with warm indoor ambiance. Very good service. The feta cheese omelet was tasty. However, the bread was too hard. They did not offer any options in bread. Parking can be an issue due to the location. Overall, it is recommended.

    Paper bags!

    Stopped in for a snack before I picked my kids up from school and I had to get a famous SugarBowl cinnamon bun! If you haven't had these, they're a HUGE fresh baked traditional cinnamon sugar bun. Fluffy and buttery inside with a crispy layer of cinnamon sugar baked into the crust. I like mine with a little bit of butter to really make it decadent. I can never finish eating one of these so I feel like it's a good one to share or have leftovers for breakfast the next day :) The cinnamon bun was $5 and they bake them fresh daily and have them ready to sell through the day. Next time you're in the area, pop in for one! Easy access parking right in front of the restaurant as well.

    Very misleading hours posted we showed up there at 9:41 and were told that they were closing soon…read moreand that they shut their kitchen down at 9:45pm & that they had already done last call for food for the night. They were still willing to serve us food to go though when my friend initially asked for menus they said to go? . Super disappointing we drove a half an hour to make it on time and rushed and everything thinking that an hour and 20 minutes before it closes is more than enough time for a quick Dinner service for two people and obviously we're not a-holes so when the entire staff is ready to just shutter early and leave, we're not gonna be the two people that insist that they stay open. The guy working there was really nice to my friend apparently though. So nothing against the staff personally or anything. Oh, and the gazebo is getting wild. There's some guy out there screaming about cutting some girl named Kristen's head off so if there's any violent crimes tonight, we're audible witnesses lol

The interior is beautiful exposed brick, warm grey chairs and banquets. Very comfortable and chic. The hostess and wait staff are friendly and extremely helpful with suggestions. For brunch I had the short rib benedict, atomic blond cocktail, and coffee. All were very good. For dinner I had the focaccia with whipped ricotta, a sazerac, the gnoochi, and an affogato for dessert. The whipped ricotta was the suggested appetizer by my server and of my goodness I could have crawled right into it--absolutely get that! If I went back to Edmonton for a visit I was definitely go back.

However service was blunt and not the friendly atmosphere that we are use to here. And since there was only one item on them menu, the food actually came out quickly. Food was okay. Lobster was good considering it needed to be flown in and they were on the bigger side. Corn was excellent. Potatoes were undercooked and the mussels were overcooked. It was hard to take them off the shell because they were that shrivelled. And the biscuits were terrible. They were an afterthought. Dry and sandy in texture. I would come back here for a restaurant for sure because we sure enjoyed the food. And they have teh best lobster rolls. But I wouldn't come back for the price point for the boil. ( I think it was close to 70 bucks a person). I will just grab my own lobster and make sure my potatoes are cooked.

One of the best things about Urban Diner is that they have their own parking lot. Street parking is difficult to find in this popular area of the city. I've nearly always been able to find a parking spot in their lot. Today I ordered the sandwich special which was a schnitzel burger with the daily soup instead of fries. It was nice, not extraordinary, but good. My guest had the breakfast special which was a schnitzel bennie. It looked really good and she enjoyed it. I've never had a bad meal here. I really appreciate the fact that it's not too noisy here. Too many cafes are so loud that it's hard to carry on a conversation. The Urban Diner certainly isn't quiet, but it's quiet enough to hear your guests talking. The service was quick and friendly. Prices were reasonable but not cheap. In the Highstreet area of Edmonton, this is probably one of the more reasonably priced cafes. The coffee was good and includes free refills. I'll definitely be back again and I can always recommend Urban Diner to anyone looking for unique dishes.
