Promising an “epic culinary experience unlike anything else in Edmonton,” the menu here is massive, with more than 10 different kinds of noodle bowls alone. The house special pho is made with a 24-hour broth, steak, brisket, tendon, tripe, and meatballs, but there are options for wonton, tom yum, pad Thai, and many more as well.

This new concept is bringing all the tiki-inspired vibes to YEG. There are already several amazing spots to escape to a vacation-like atmosphere in Edmonton, and this new concept aims to be another.

Located underneath Fox Burger, this low-key underground bar is in the exact same place as the old boiler room that heated the entire building back in the day — hence the name. The cast iron boiler is still in the room and is an interesting centrepiece of the space.

Fox Burger is known for its burgers and drinks, and this basement bar will offer the same.

Chai Chill & Grill Cafe

Located on 82nd Avenue near Bonnie Doon, this spot specializes in serving authentic chai, this new spot also has lassi drinks, hot food, coffee, desserts, and more.

If you’ve never had chai, it’s a popular Indian black tea brewed in milk and water and is also usually sweetened with sugar. Some of the different options here include karak (strong and black), adrak (fresh ginger), golden milk (turmeric, ghee, and black pepper), and the classic marsala (black loose leaf with five spices).

PhatBar Bakery & Café

Serving tea, treats, spicy loaves, pies, cookies, and so much more, this menu is unique and delicious, with vibes that embrace all things grunge, modern preppy, punk, and hip-hop. There are even a few retro arcade games that’ll feel like a blast from the past, like the high-flying NBA Tournament Edition game.
