Delicious breakfasts!

Tried the hash one day and the sunrise sandwich the next. All delicious and big portions. Side potatoes and coffees were also amazing. Got a few other bakery items to go and they were fantastic.

Pros: Nice atmosphere and staff, Clean, Excellent food

Sweet pea cafe

Got their sausage sandwich and just egg sandwich with the iced mocha and cinnamon bun.
I liked it all honestly. Prices maybe a little high but everything is these days

Great food and space. Found this magical place during a business trip in Edmonton. The food was fantastic and the service was great. Definitely a new “must” when I’m in town.

Pros: Great food, Great space, Great people

Cons: Nothing

Fun for kids

Nice little place to go with kids on a rainy day.
Make a reservation (they charge the play fees for parents too).
Nothing really special about the food though.

Amazing vegan café

Went to this little hidden gem after my friend recommended I try it out. I had the spanakopita and it was so creamy and flavourful! I also tried the butterfly pea latte with oat milk, a delicately sweetened floral tea. Some of the best vegan food I’ve had! Will definitely be coming back to try out more items on the menu. #Veganuary

Pros: Fully Vegan menu! , Very friendly and welcoming staff

Super cute café

Although I haven't tried many items, everything I had was delicious. The Cheezy Hash was delicious, as was the Beyond Burger and Caesar Salad! They really shine with their desserts, though. The dark chocolate raspberry scone was the best scone I've ever had 😲 and their cinnamon buns are next level amazing. Highly recommend!

Great baked goods

With the start of our road trip in Edmonton, we were searching for vegan food. We were very surprised that we could even find a bakery here. A very cozy space with loads of vegan yummies.
I would definitely recommend this place for all things sweet!

Ok lunch spot

We had the bean quinoa salad, curry tofu wrap, spanakopita, cinnamon bun and millionaire bar. Everything thing was good and I will come here again to try some more things. Based on how everyone was raving about the cinnamon buns I expected too much, It's a pretty standard cinnamon bun, good but not amazing.

Update - went for dinner and had the mac and cheese and the big Mac flatbread. Both were not great.

A must visit while in the city

A fantastic atmosphere with a super friendly and helpful staff. I stop in every time I’m in the city and stock up on yummy treats and have never been disappointed. Best chai latte in the city (sorry remedy cafe)

Pros: Everything is vegan, They don’t try to make treats healthy, Very friendly staff

Cons: Nada

Huge selection of vegan food

This place has a huge selection of vegan options to choose from. When we were there, they even offered full dinners of lasagna and cheesy pasta at a pretty decent price for the number of people it would feed.

They have options for kids that I would like as an adult.

They have all the coffees and teas you could want, as well as smoothies. My husband had a single shot of espresso, which he liked, and I had the Dreamy Chocolate smoothie which was delicious.

There really is something for everyone there - and something for every meal. Whether you want breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a snack, they have something that sounds good.

We went early morning and had the curry wrap and scramble wrap and they were both delicious. The Havarti cheese they used in the scramble wrap was so good. It reminded me of lasagna... but in a wrap!

We plan to work our way through the entire menu because everything looks so good. This is going to be our go-to date night place, which happens to fall on a Wednesday, and I've noticed on their Facebook page that they have specials on Wednesdays, so it works out great!

Cinnamon buns to die for

A wonderful addition to Edmonton’s vegan restaurants. The location is easily accessible and parking is available. This is a wonderful place to stop for hot lunch. And if you are full after your meal make sure that you treat yourself with a cinnamon bun to go, you won’t regret it.

Pros: Everything is vegan - yes!!!!, Food is freshly prepared, Friendly service

Cons: A bit loud at times

Sweet Pea fun for the whole family

Had an amazing time bringing my niece's here to play on the kids side. And then eat incredible vegan food after! I'm always so happy with their food. Lots of gluten free options and fully vegan.

Wohlfühlen und lecker Essen

Wir haben zu zweit die Nudeln mit geröstetem Gemüse und Käsesauce (cheezy Pasta with roasted vegetables) das hausgemachte Brot mit Cheddarcheese (grilled cheddar cheese pickie vegan seedy) und sehr leckere kleine gewürzte Pellkartoffeln (side potatoes) gegessen. Danach haben wir uns jeweils ein Stück Erdbeercremetorte und ein Stück Cookie-dough-Torte (den Originalnamen habe ich leider vergessen) und zwei Cappuccini mit Hafermilch gegönnt. Alles sehr lecker. Die Torten waren für unseren Geschmack ganz schön süß.
Die Bedienung ist sehr nett. Sollten wir nochmal in diese Gegend kommen, würden wir hier gerne wieder essen. Herzliche Grüße von den beiden Berlinern (Germany), die zum ersten Mal Urlaub in Kanada machen 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

Pros: Komplett vegan 👍👍👍

Lovely place for kids

This is my second time here and also tried the food at an event! Their beet salad is delicious, so is the spanakopita with the tzatziki sauce! I don’t have little kids but they have an awesome inside playground with little markets, toys and costumes!

Pros: Only affordable vegan options, Fun for kids, A place for the adults too

Their cinnamon bun is incredible (or any of their baking!) And the tofu scramble wrap was pretty amazing! Fun plain options for your veggie children too!

Pros: All plant based! , Creative ways to include kid items, Incredible bakery section

Cons: Service is slow, Inexperienced and young front end staff

Could not be happier with this place! Nice lunch menu with the best vegan spanakopita I’ve ever had. Desserts look amazing too. I had a great raspberry chocolate scone and everything we tried was excellent. Prices are reasonable and place is lovely. Don’t miss it!!!

Visited twice in less than a weeks time.

Met a friend for lunch on Sunday. Staff amazingly friendly and helpful! Food was fantastic. Brought another friend back on Friday. Same experience.
The staff are wonderful down to earth people. They love their jobs and they love their customers. It really shows.
Everything I have tried food wise has been delicious! There is very little plant based fare in my area of the city and it is definitely worth the drive for me to go to Sweet Pea Cafe!
The cafe is not huge, which adds to the charm. It could be tough during cooler seasons to sit during peak times of the day. During warmer times there are tables outside and a lovely green space next to the cafe with benches and a gazebo.
Lots of options for every age!

Pros: Amazing selection of eats and treats!, Super friendly, positive staff. , Uncontested location with great parking.

Cons: Cafe is not huge.

New vegan cafe in West Edmonton

Surprise! With minimal fan fare a new vegan restaurant has opened in west Edmonton. Sweet Pea Cafe opened earlier this month in what was previously the west side location of Wild Earth Bakery. The cafe is located in a small strip mall in the middle of a quiet residential area with tons of parking. The restaurant is cute, and upon walking in the door you are greeted with a selection of vegan baked goods. There aren’t servers as such, you place your order at the counter and pay. They call your name when your drinks are ready ala Starbucks, but they did bring our food to the table. You might have to grab your own cutlery. The cafe doesn’t have an extensive menu but the items we tried were tasty. They also have the best selection of non-dairy milks that I’ve seen in Edmonton, and I can personally vouch for the tastiness of the oat milk latte. We tried a few items from the menu, including Mac and cheese, with or without roasted vegetables, curried Beyond Meat chicken wrap, the Buddha bowl with an excellent walnut dresssing, and everyone’s favourite, the spanakopita with vegan tzatziki sauce. The baking was good and included cinnamon buns, scones, various cakes and energy-type ballls and some gluten free options. There is an attached children’s play area set to open next month.

Pros: different selections to existing vegan restaurants, Good location with lots of parking, Healthy and tasty
