Food and drink

In recent years, the culinary scene has become a major draw for travellers seeking unique and memorable dining experiences. Food tourism is on the rise, with adventurers eager to explore new flavours and culinary traditions.

Alberta is becoming a mecca of bold restaurateurs – some moving to the province from faraway countries, sharing with you their comforts of home, others working their way up in the local food industry, to finally open a place of their own.

Consider it a rebirth. New tastes. Fresh (and unique) ingredients. Updated techniques. It's variety which is attracting us all.

If variety is the spice of life, then the County’s cupboard is overflowing. From bakeries to breweries and everything in between, Strathcona County offers a smorgasbord of international food and drink to rival that of neighbouring destinations. Residents are hungry for culinary adventure and those in the industry are obliging. Duck udon? Absolutely. A 24-variety olive bar? No problem. Seafood, curries, beef tongue tacos: you’ve come to the right place. Need something to wet your whistle? They’ve got bubble tea, whisky, beer, and wine! Ready? Let’s dig in.
