Things To Do
River Valley Overlook
On the way from the Metro to the Community League, one of the best views of downtown Edmonton!
Main Quad
Check out the Main Quad or the Arts Quad at the University of Alberta -- about a 10 minute walk west of the Metro. Ben and Gabby met just off-campus at the now-defunct Devaney's Irish Pub. (RIP)
Walterdale Bridge
The hottest club of Summer '21! Pack a picnic or explore Kinsmen Park! (Unfortunately, not super walkable from the Metro, as it's down a steep-ish hill.)
Sugarbowl
One of our first dates was at the Sugarbowl — it’s a classic Edmonton restaurant with a very comprehensive beer list!
Highlevel Diner
Another nearby haunt! Try out their chicken and cheddar sandwich!
Made By Marcus - Whyte Ave
Grab a scoop or two of ice cream while you explore! Gabby recommends Earl Grey Cassis Royale, and Ben recommends Ace Coffee and Cocoa Nib! (We both recommend Sea Salt and Goat Milk Caramel!)
La Poutine
We (Gabby) would be remiss without recommending one of the best authentic poutine spots in Edmonton!
ACE Coffee Roasters - Garneau
One of the best roasts in the city! Located a few blocks west of the Metro. Ben recommends the No. 9 Roast, Gabby recommends the bagel with herb cream cheese!
Farrow Garneau
Probably too messy for wedding day (Ben has experienced many Yolk Disasters), but an Edmonton legend nonetheless! Try the Grick and try your luck with your own Yolk Roulette!
DaDeO
Looking for a meal in the area? DaDeO has the best Creole/Cajun food in town!
