Blue Plate Diner

Edmonton


In a redbrick building in Edmonton's warehouse district, this diner serves healthy food in hearty portions with vegetarian options. And there's style, too. Cool colored lighting and exposed brickwork mean you can eat locally grown veggies without feeling as if you've joined a hippie commune. The creative menu is well executed, there's an excellent kids' menu, and the desserts? Mmm…

Try the tofu stir-fry or steak sandwich and enjoy larger-than-average plates of crisp, locally grown vegetables. Alternatively, go for the enormous sticky buns, available weekends only, which the menu claims are 'larger than your head' (not quite, but they're big, trust us!).
