Blue Plate Diner - Edmonton, Alberta

We got there and it wasn't too busy and still we had to wait for around 1/2 hr for our food. We were served water, I finished my glass and was not offered more water until after I was already eating my food and had finished the water in the ... first 15 mins we were there. Food was good, not exceptional but good, the drink menu is a bit insane, for a breakfast/brunch diner, I mean coffee for $5? I had looked at the menu online before heading there and what I really wanted wasn't even offered anymore. I was excited to go there but we were dissapointed, simple as that. Read more

One of the best dining experiences I've had in a very long time. Exceptional service and quality food. If you're in town looking for a great breakfast with good coffee service this is the spot.

Went for my sister's birthday and it was really great, I had a/the French toast, bro had bacon cheddar burger, sis had chicken burger. Everyone thought it was delicious. Drinks were good. Don't recall what we all got. We were all super excited for this place and it definitely met our expectations. It was ... nice to hang with them as I don't see them often. Will definitely come again Read more

My first time at the new location (Ya don't get out much). Food was very good, is it the best cinnamon bun I had this weekend, no (high level all the way) but it was a more than passable brunch appetizer; the potatoes and eggs were top notch really some ... of the best, sausage was very good as well. Also had their cold tea with was nicely sweetened - almost like a tea/lemonade - a very refreshing drink on a hot day. Read more

Awesome food, great service, lovely coffee (that's locally roasted!) Parents brought me here with family for brunch back in November and it was an absolutely wonderful brunch! Ordered the duck confit eggs benedict (with regular sauce, it usually comes with jalapeno hollandaise), and it was quite the lovely meal. Oh right ... and I started with a cinnamon bun that was insanely fluffy and ever so delicious, with icing that while sweet, wasn't overpoweringly sweet like a lot of places tend to do. It was a nice sweetness that complimented the soft fluffy cinnamon bun perfectly. While my plate did unfortunately leave the kitchen with an eggshell on the one half (instead of the egg), when it was brought to the waiter's attention it was not only fixed, but they gave me a whole entire half a meal of food to replace it.. Now that's service and fixing a mistake to say the least! Coffee was also rather lovely, and it was definitely great that when asked what kind of coffee they had our waiter immediately asked if I was wondering about the roaster, origin of the coffee, and type of roast, to which I replied yes, and got a detailed reply of what kind of coffee they had, which is so wonderful! At so many places you tend to get a blank stare when you ask this question. Read more
