50 Best Bars in Edmonton

“Fantastic change from the norm“

“I come for their Bulldog and the outdoor patio to soak in the sun while having a refreshing cocktail. For a healthier option, dragon boat lettuce wraps is excellent . Great service by Jasmine, friendly..polite and efficient. It’s our happy hour venue for the summer and will be back again.“

“Seriously one of our most favorite spot in Edmonton. Chris is a legend and his staff are gems. Happy Hour never disappoint & special of the day is usually spectacular. We go as often as possible. A++“

“We are already planning our next visit because literally everything looked so good! And what we had was incredible! The service was phenomenal and the vibe felt so welcoming.“

“I would recommend it to anyone…It’s an all around great place for great food, cocktails and service!! 👍🏻“

“Went for jazz night and it was such a unique experience. An intimate full house with cool people and good music. The staff was so wonderful, supportive, kind, welcoming! The music was incredible, the vibes were immaculate, the beer is fun and yummy! Tried the pop corn, it was also spectacular. Thanks to Emily for making our experience as magical as it was. Would recommend to anyone (:“

“Great spot for small bites and an intimate drink. The exceptional hospitality provided by Tristan during my visits is deeply missed, and I am saddened to learn of his departure. The weekly tradition of Tuesday evenings at Henry was truly a highlight of my week. I highly valued the warmth and attentiveness of his service, and I consistently felt well-cared for.“

“great atmosphere, good food good company.“

“Have been to this location twice now while on holiday from Saskatoon. Leopolds Broadway in Saskatoon is my spot of choice and while in Edmonton Strathcona is a home away from home. My bartender was fantastic , she was very attentive and even open to banter about the ridiculous virtual golf league on the tv. 10/10 recommend as a sober person !“

“Great place for live music. If you like music with more rock, metal and punk flair with touches of grunge and glam, The Dive Bar is your place !!“

“Didn’t have food but the service and the beer were exceptional!!!!!“

“This is an awesome place. Friendly staff, decent prices and Amazing Food! Music Poker on Thursdays is the best!!!“

“this is the spot for real“

“amazing drinks & appies; great ambience Linda is the best!!! Definitely recommend checking it out!“

“We had William as our server, and he was truly superb!! Our reservation got mixed up, and he was more than accommodating to make sure we still had a great night! I truly would recommend coming here, and the servers (specifically William) are excellent!“

“The staff are great and friendly, the food is fenominal and I wouldn't want to go anywhere else to watch a oilers game than here. It's a 10 out of 10“

“Awesome place for low key nights and really fun nights too.“

“Ally is a very good bartender who is very professional and also respectful. Jessica Kay’s review is ignorant and very weird based on the fact that it’s a burner account. Alysha has always been a great server and even better person. I’m there pretty steady and she always has been close with her patrons and does her job excellently and efficiently.“

“Review: Time Out Pub – South Edmonton Tucked away in a residential area near Argyle on the south side of Edmonton, Time Out is a hidden gem of a sports pub. It’s not far out of the way and just a cheap Uber ride for a great night out. The vibe is laid-back, the drinks are cheap, and the pool tables are even cheaper. The pub food is fantastic—honestly, they might have the best nachos in Edmonton. Great spot to catch a game, shoot some pool, and enjoy solid comfort food without breaking the bank. A no-frills, feel-good kind of place that’s definitely worth checking out.“

“This place is great!! Such a wonderful experience with this music hall! My mom and I came to see Leith Ross in concert and we got great service, especially from one of your employees Ashton. He was so kind and downright cool! Wonderful service :)“

“OJ’s is a more “go at your own pace” sort of joint. You seat yourself, and you are left along most of the night. The server would defintely assist yoy whenever you need it, but it is not like an earls where they are constantly coming over, filling your water, checking in. The food was quite great and they have quite an extensive menu, lots of drinks and “Happy Hour every Day”. They have different deals for each day. There inside is very nice, more of a rustic feel, also very big, a stocked bar and a patio, the patio gives me a vibe of a German beer garden; but definitely great for people who appreciate thatt vibe. It’s in a great spot, right off of 102.“

“awesome service and the Food is amazing“

“Hello! My friend and I stopped by your location on the evening of June 13th and I just want to say thank you to the security guy that was working that night, he made us feel SOOOO comfortable and safe. When a drunk guy decided to join our table he kindly escorted him out after warning him of social distancing. He also cleaned off our table and asked us if we needed anything. The bartender and staff were also very accommodating and kind we will def be back! Thanks again guys :D“

“We've just moved to the city about a year ago and it's our first time to come here. We are not a pub/bar kind of people, but if we go, we go for the amazing food and service. And this place did not disappoint us one bit. Our experience tonight was amazing. Food was great and service was excellent. Darien was our waitress and she did an amazing job in spite of being incredibly busy and being all by herself. Thank you Darien and we will definitely be back😊“

“I had a great experience at Pizza 99 thanks to Irene’s excellent service. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was just right throughout my visit. She helped me choose a good beer, served everything promptly, and checked in at the right moments without being intrusive. The appetizers were fresh and delicious, and her positive attitude really added to the overall experience. It’s always nice to be served by someone who genuinely cares about customer satisfaction. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Since moving back home to the island The Bower is my go to venue when returning to Edmonton. Being a DJ this place hires incredible fellow DJs. Strongly recommend!!!!“

“Great people and good hospitality.“

“Our family of four came in for dinner. The service from Monica was excellent. She was very attentive and checked back with us often, but not too often. She was very in top of ensuring our drinks stayed full. Dishes were cleared any time staff members walked by which was nice as it freed up space on the table.
All four meals were delicious - the food was fresh and hot.
Will be glad to return again.“

“My family and I were evacuated from our home in Drayton Valley and this restaurant offered the evacuees a free meal which we had and it was awesome! We are incredibly grateful for places like this in such a stressful situation ❤️“

“Opus is a great little pub with pool tables and lots of dart boards. The food is good, they have decent wings, and the pizza was tasty too. We were super impressed with the bartender Michelle, she was doing 5 things at once and still managed to be attentive to customers and check in on us at the table when we were eating. She was a pleasure to deal with, her attitude and smile are infectious! We will definitely come back another Saturday night to play darts and get some wings!“

“Owner and staff are amazing. Best nachos on Whyte Ave…we’ll b back.“

“Just a great place to eat and hang out“

“I absolutely love The LUXX!!! This is my all time favourite dance bar. I will be coming here for my bachelorette in a few days and can’t wait to see my favourite bartender and dance the night away. Way better than beercade with good music, cheap drinks and amazing service. I can’t wait to come here again. I would recommend this place to anyone!“

“Fantastic food and better than fantastic service by Heather 5678! Lots of variety on the menu. Recommend to any NWT fire evacuees staying in Hotels off Ellerslie road.“

“great pub awesome patio, best wings“

“We had a wonderful date night while visiting Edmonton. Highly recommend this place. The food and service were both amazing. Thank you.“

“I booked a reservation for our anniversary thru open table, but somehow it reserved a table - at the Prince George restaurant…after speaking to the manager, Stefan, he sat us in the lounge at a nice table by the fireplace, gave us a couple of drinks on the house, and had a great steak dinner, then got a delicious dessert( on the house)… I just want to thank Stefan, our server and the rest of the staff for making our night out a success… Taras Pyzyk“

“Every order we've placed has been awesome! wings and burgers are the best!“

“My husband and I went to The Moon Cafe and Pizza yesterday (18thSeptember), we had the best lunch we have had in a long time. Service is brilliant and I had a Blue cheese pizza, which was to die for. Took home the Veg Lasagne and it was the best!!/ We will be going again with family and friends hopefully. Keep the great work up guys, yr one of the best.“

“Great bar. Three floors, basement, main and upstairs roof patio all with bartenders on each floor. Also outdoor patio in the back. Good selection of beer good music and DJs and friendly staff. Very popular on a Saturday night. Bathrooms are tiny.“

“Omgosh! The Kegs Tuna Tartare, it was amazing. I mean AMAZIiNG!!“

“I Am Very Impressed With The Amazing Bowling Deals On A Cheap Day On A Non-Game Day. Very Respectfully Got To Say The Service is Absolutely Amazing! Also Looking Forward To Eating There Next Time I Come. Also Look Forward To Bowling Again Too!“

“Awsome time with great friends and new people“

“Great Bartenders, nice ppl and always a variety of events happening.“

“We played here live as a band Nov 22, 2025. It’s great to see the renovations and changes the bar has introduced and that the support for live and local Edmonton rock & metal music is only growing, and supported by venues such as Bunkers. Staff is always helpful and supportive!“

“Excellent service, skilled bartender. Will be back.“

“Amazing food. Great staff.“

“My new favourite Pho place. The BEST costumer service, ever. Our food is always served so fast. I’ve tried a lot of Pho places and this one by far is the best. Great menu too. Definitely only going here from now on!😊“

“Good food Good service! Thumbs Up for a Delicious food we ate at Dorinku Tokyo. Surely to come back again for another taste…😊😊😊😋😋😋“
