Burger Brawl, a trendy smash burger joint with a video game theme, sadly closed its doors for good.
Serving sides, cocktails, beers, and a wide array of creative burgers, this local spot was a favourite among many diners here in Edmonton.
There were more than 10 different wild burger creations to choose from, with names like the Dark Samus Burger and Sonic Burger.
Each was entirely original, with inventive and gourmet toppings loaded onto the smashed patties.

Cafe Blackbird was one of the most popular cafes in Edmonton.
Known for being much more than a coffee spot, this espresso-style neighbourhood cafe had amazing food options and killer drinks.
Located right in the heart of the Crestwood community, the focus here was on making hand-crafted food and drinks.
“After nearly eight wonderful years we are sad to announce the permanent closure of Café Blackbird,” the cafe stated in a recent Instagram post.
