Great brunch. Gorgeous location... Have been there several times in the past, but hadn't been since they've re opened. Looks great, and the food was fantastic. Best view in St Albert, hands down.

Donna Tang

BOOM! Glasshouse is back in action and the food is awesome (I had the salmon last night). My wife and I are brining the kids for brunch, the next time we go. Love the open atmosphere...couple that with a proven chef = great experience.

Been a favourite spot to eat but the customer service has always been so up and down based on owners and servers. Took food to go this time and we were missing part of the order and the chicken club we asked for no sauce and it was loaded with sauce and the chicken was extra charred which my daughter barely touched. Should have checked the order before leaving because once home you really don’t want to drive back.

We do not come to the Glass House Bistro Cafe very much and based on today we won’t be coming back even that infrequently. The staff was friendly but the selection of offerings and the price was not. To pay nine dollars for a muffin and a small vanilla latte is a bit too much. There was only three choices in muffins and only one other food item when I directly asked. Sad.

We LOVE this restaurant. It has such a cool vibe, especially at night with all the patio style lighting. We’ve been numerous times, with the family and on date nights. Our kids just love it! The food is outstanding. The prices are set perfectly along with the portion size. We’ve tried almost everything on the menu and loved it all. Service was excellent as well. Please be open again soon, we miss you already. We’re dreaming about the Crispy Cauliflower, the Brisket as well as the brunch food. 5 STAR ALL THE WAY!!!!

A beautiful well stocked garden center with an excellent restaurant, brunch was wonderful.

Evie K

This was my favourite place to go. The Rose London Fog is the most delicious that I have had. The service at the Glasshouse Kitchen is superb.

Kelsey Wangler

My partner and I ate here a number of times during Covid. They had a weekly supper club take away option that was excellent. The food was amazing and it was such a great deal. Once the restaurant opened up to in-person dining, we've been back numerous times. The food is amazing, the atmosphere and the view are stunning, and it's such a great local restaurant to enjoy. We highly recommend getting the carrot cake if it's on the menu. It was the BEST cake we've ever had!

Kayla Tipping

Wow! We went there for brunch and the food and ambience is amazing! Don't miss this St.Albert Gem! Looking out over the lake in a greenhouse .... Wow!

Went for the grand reopening of the restaurant on a Friday night. Food was awesome, drink menu was ???? and the staff were genuinely wonderful. If you want to eat a good meal in a superb atmosphere, it's worth checking out.

Evan Burow

Fresh menu and exceptional ambiance in the glass room! Had the farmers plate. It was wonderful. Save room for espresso, it's divine here. Great brunch spot.

Really great spot for brunch. Loved the food and the service from Chelsea was the best I've had in awhile! Do think they should make some green changes such as getting rid of plastic straws and getting a QR code! But overall great experience!

We dined there this summer for the first time in several years, and enjoyed it sooo much that we have been there for dinner three times since the beginning of August. We also brought our staff one evening and they were able to provide great service and wonderful food even with large group of 14. The patio is great on a nice day and patio lights are a nice touch at night..... the interior has also been updated with a modern rustic feel. So far, we have tried the variety slider trio, green goddess salad, ginger glazed salmon, spicy crispy cauliflower, and roasted half chicken... all so good! Going to spread this review because we think people need to experience the new chef at Glasshouse Kitchen for themselves. :-)

Jordan Hodges

In my opinion the best place from food to location and atmosphere. This is my third time here for lunch and dinner and the food was amazing; Nour our server was very polite and nailed her recommendations on the spot every time. Thank you for your kind service Nour. looking forward to seeing you guys again.

Jon K (jonnyk)

We love the Glasshouse Kitchen for a quiet night with great food, attentive and friendly service, and a casual but comfortable environment. A hidden gem in the northwest Edmonton / St. Albert area. Hannah served us this evening and was very friendly and approachable, and we had a great interaction with her. Thank you!

My ceaser came with a perogie and a slice of bacon if that doesn't intrigue you to go I don't know what will. I also recommend the slider trio

Merryman Porter

Great location and view. Food was delicious and fairly quick to come out. Service was friendly but on the slow side.

Vern Toews

What a unique place! Had lunch here with friends and it was delicious. Stayed for a couple of lattes and did some shopping on the way out. They have a smaller selection of food but everything was delicious. This would be the perfect place to bring guests. I will definetly be back!

Kali Brodbin

We came for the brunch menu and it did not disappoint. My friend has been wanting to take me for a while as he always raves about the smoked salmon eggs Benedict. The plates were designed beautifully and so colorful. The peach mimosas were fabulous. Could have drank those all day! Our waitress Amber was super friendly as well! Definitely want to go back to try more of the menu!

My husband and I were married at the Glasshouse on Nov 6. It was perfect for our intimate setting. Food was deeelicious! Everything I asked of the coordinators happened right up to twinkle lights on the trees we stood under to say our vows. I could not have asked for a more perfect start to our new life as husband and wife. Debbie & Andre

Callie Perry

What an incredible transformation! Enjoyed an amazing dinner last night - the food was delicious ( highly recommend the salmon, gnocchi and they make a mean burger). The space is fantastic - a greenhouse atmosphere with high ceilings, that is warm and cozy. Can"t wait to go back!

Baljeet Singh Gill

Went there on Sunday August 29 for brunch place is lovely, unfortunately our server was probably on her first day there and was totally inexperienced, nice young lady but totally inexperienced, I had the farmer’s bowl which consisted of hash brown potatoes with poached eggs and sausage and bacon, the sausage was so spicy that it totally over powdered the entire meal, my wife had the chicken waffle and the chicken was so dry that she could not eat it, we received our food unfortunately my wife had to go back to the front to get cutlery for us to eat ,also two tiny cups of regular coffee with no offer to refill was twelve bucks, unfortunately we will not be returning .

Went for a company Christmas function the other night. Really neat atmosphere, food was fantastic & the service was top notch. Will be returning again in the near future!

Our Dental clinic had our Christmas staff party here and it was an amazing time! Beautiful venue, my shortribs, and key lime pie were amazing ,and the wait staff/ bar staff were very friendly! ????

We had our work Christmas party at the Glasshouse and the food could not have been better! Order every appetizer, they are all amazing!!!

Hanna was a great server very friendly and gave good suggestions, very attentive. Food was really good, ambiance was nice!

Annette Boyle

Drove 35 minutes from Sherwood Park to take my wife on a date. We don't get to go on dates as much now that we have a newborn. (11 weeks old today!) The location is beautiful and the atmosphere nice, trendy and open. There is a beautiful view of Lois Hole Provincial Park which we enjoyed. Unfortunately, it took 45 minutes for our food arrive! The restaurant was only 1/3 full so this was surprising. At about the 40 minute mark I asked our server and she said they were backed up in the kitchen and that the food would still be more than a few minutes... Not sure how that happens when you are only 1/3 full... The manager did come by later and apologize for the delay and said their cook had just left and he gave us a $20 gift card. Nice touch. When the food did finally come it was past time for the baby to eat so we ate in about 10 minutes. Not the most ideal date conditions. Thankfully the food was reasonably good although the mushroom burger had a bit of an odd taste and texture which we wouldn't order again, but the fennel breakfast sausage was delicious and a bit spicy. Would have appreciated the warning ahead of time about the wait and we could have fed the baby and walked around the greenhouse... All in all it was an OK experience. But I expected a bit more...

What a fantastic place for a meal. Glasshouse has one of the best views for hours around and a great evolving menu with a myriad of delicious options. Give it a try for date night, brunch, a business meeting or really any occasion.

Brenda Mitchell

We visited this establishment that has been under new management to celebrate my birthday this week and we were very impressed with the food, the price and the venue overall. The Thu evening supper club special was outstanding including 6 large chicken tacos, 2 bowls of fries and 2 lemon tarts and we started with a couple of appies as well which were also delicious. We brought home the tacos we could not finish and our kids polished them off in no time! The service was efficient and friendly as well! We will definitely return to The Glass House and give them 5 stars!!

Marek Kundera

We decided after this crazy year to do something different for Christmas dinner. Ordered from the Glasshouse Bistro and spoke with Chelsea who was wonderful to deal with, the meals (and pies) were absolutely delicious!! Good sized portions with enough for leftovers! Thank you to the chef and all the staff for being a bright spot in our Christmas Day!!

Cllaw

We stopped in for a relaxing Saturday afternoon snack. What a beautiful room and view!! Kiana was our server and she knew all the specials of the day. We had a couple glasses of the house red(a smooth Tempranillo) and decided to share Bang Bang broccoli. Shortly after ordering some complimentary truffle chips(still warm) show up at the same time as our vino. Sooo nice Soon our server brought out the best broccoli I’ve had in a while. Was a great start to a relaxing Saturday evening; thanks Glasshouse and Kiana!

Kaylee Armstrong

My wife had her work Christmas party at the Glass House. It was great. Great food and service. Especially Nour and Johanna. They were excellent

Amanda Prosko

Thoroughly enjoyed the Beet and Goat Cheese Salad and the excellent service provided by Nour. Our lattes were exactly as we liked them (low fat & extra hot), so good that we each had 2! Delicious and amazing atmosphere!!

Jarret Ptolemy

Nour has been a delight when taking our order and bringing our orders out promptly. She has a beautiful way with her customers.

JA

Under new ownership and Chef Julia Kundera is back. If you visited when Julia was running the show years ago, you know that this was the spot to be in St. Albert. Now that she’s back, it’s once again the spot to be. Can’t wait to go back and try the brunch! Absolutely delicious! Chef Julia’s food is always exquisite.

J & E

Attended an Xmas event at the Glasshouse last week. The venue was magical, the food was perfect and the staff was wonderful. It’s my new destination for special occasions.

Adam Carpenter

It is such a pleasure to return to the Glasshouse cafe and to have the wonderful chef back. We live in South Edmonton, but lately have been treating ourselves to lunch every other week during this pandemic. The greenhouse atmosphere with high ceilings and well spaced tables make us feel that we are safe. We enjoy the food. I particularly recommend the soups. I've had at least 4 different varieties and each one has been excellent. We'll be back soon!

Norma Callicott

I visited on a Sunday in January on a cold day, just looking to have a bowl of soup and a cup of tea. The signs on the table said sit down and a server will come. No one came. It was brunch day, so no table service in the cafe area?? Thanks for letting me sit there and wait and wait. Also, no soup?? I am really not into overpriced brunch, and I was alone. I ordered a chicken sandwich and a cup of tea.. I was showed the order, the sandwich was $12, for a premade sandwich in a plastic clamshell package, no side or salad! Plus she added on a dessert which I never ordered. At this point I am exasperated. Yes the sandwich was good, but I can go to the french cafe, Macarons downtown and have a sandwich with salad for cheaper. So disappointed, will never be back.

Alf Brown

Food was delicious and coffee was excellent. Staff was very friendly and the atmosphere is really unique. I do wish there was a better selection to choose from though and would be nicer if the soup portion was bigger.

Jessica G

Good food and atmosphere. Went in the winter months which is probably the least scenic for views outside. Im sure we'll be back and ill update my review again. Thank you for the experience.

Misha Susoeff

what an outstanding time....appys were fantastic...meal was top notch (I had the chicken and gnocchi and the Mrs had the salmon)...and then the desert...OMG....to absolutely die for....only regret is i can only rate it a 5/5 or I would have put a 10 star rating......

Fabienne Isore

Pretty good...must give it a try

Jason Spicer

Nour our server was great and the view was amazing on a snowy day seeing the country side. Plus the food was perfect and very fairly priced! Try their beer menu :)

Nevi Ramsey

Fantastic! I went for the grand opening and met the new owners Bill and Shannon who are very friendly and took awesome care of us. Both the food and drink menu have a variety of delicious options; everything I ate was perfect and I can't wait to try it all.

Ashley Reyes

I went to the Glasshouse Kitchen and Bar yesterday afternoon to have a coffee with friends. The drinks were slightly expensive but, were great as always! The pastries too! Unfortunately, did not have the best experience with the staff. The young man working behind the counter was rude and arrogant. He spoke to my friends and I in a condescending tone, he snarked at our order as if it wasn't a good choice, and he ridicule my method of payment with an unnecessary comment. Additionally, during the interaction, he just left without finishing our order. The nice girl behind the counter told us he would be back and she's sorry about the wait. I've been to the Glasshouse multiple times and the staff have always been polite and well mannered. I'm not too sure if he's a new hire but, we were shocked by how rude and unprofessional he is. It's embarrassing to invite your friends to a cafe you've enjoyed for so many years for them to feel uncomfortable and unimpressed.

We had brunch at this beautiful restaurant one cold wintry day a few weeks ago. We had brunch. It was the best restaurant meal we’ve had in a very long time. I highly recommend the chicken and waffles. Both are perfectly cooked with waffles crispy on the outside and soft inside and the chicken was tender and spiced perfectly so the savory and sweet was amazing. The French Toast was also a masterpiece of flavor. Both were beautifully presented. Can’t wait to go back.

Shannon Leduc

Just want to say I believe in second chances. Went there on a Friday night when it was super busy and things didn't go so well. But they were super apologetic and sent us home with food. We went back again on the Sunday and had a fabulous brunch. I had girlfriends booked for this past Sunday with me and it was outstanding service and food. We need to remember everybody is struggling due to covid. Things can't always go perfect. I highly recommend any food on their menu. If you have special dietary needs they will do their best to meet them. Management and staff are top notch. Thank you again so much for a wonderful experience we are definitely coming back. Stay safe Regards The A-Team ????

We visited October 9. The food was fabulous and we loved the atmosphere. We highly recommend the spiced popcorn broccoli and dirty fries as appetizers as well as the hot cauliflower & chorizo dip. For mains, the Spiced Crispy Cauliflower and steak & frites were delicious. For a cocktail, the Friendmaker was fantastic. We are looking forward to trying the rest of the menu.
