The cafe is a hidden gem in Edmonton. You do not need to shop at Holts, but, this little restaurant is wonderful. I have had numerous lunches here and every time I love it. The window seats over the Manulife entrance are wonderful, the sunshine helps. The service has always been wonderful.Today I had the bacon and scallop salad. It was, as always, perfect. The scallops are always perfectly cooked, and that is a beautiful thing. I do sincerely recommend this spot.
