I can't believe it's taken me so long being back in Edmonton to go enjoy some delicious Farrow brunch/lunch options. It's the season for anything apples, so I was happy to find a caramel apple cronut & went for a classic grick middle (as per their website & one of my favs - Fried Egg, Bacon, Rosemary Aioli, Smoked Cheddah, Tomato Jam, Arugula). Sadly with a cane & a reuseable bag, I couldn't take a coffee to go (stair logistics are hard enough) but it's always a great cup when I do have a free hand. Oh, I should mention in case I've never did in previous reviews, neither of these food options are something one wants to eat when trying to look presentable. As it's deliciously messy! There's a few bar seats at this location but it's best to take your food to go. At this particular location (there's 4 locations now!) there's no accessible entrance (nor exit). Kind of baffles my mind on why they didn't build a ramp with the newer set of stairs at the exit door. I even made the comment that it's really too bad they don't use the order window on the side (like they did in the pandemic), for us that need to avoid the challenge of stairs. There's also no railings on the steps, so be sure footed in wet & winter conditions (even if you're not disabled). So as much as I love the food & coffee at Farrow, I have to leave it as it's a place I'm going to only on a randomly decent mobility day for the knees & legs. read more

Always had the cronut on my Wishlist and happened to be in the area ~11:30AM on a Saturday. Tried to call and ask if they had any left to not waste my time, but no answer. So I went anyway and they did have some! They also had FOUR people working with No other customers inside so why no one could answer the phone ... Cronut was Caramel Apple - filled with apple pie filling. 10/10 very good donut, loved the texture, lots of moist filling. read more

There were about 6 people in line before me and the line moved fairly quickly. The staff were very fast and efficient with their cooking. The sandwich I ordered was the 'always sunny in ritchiedelphia' 13,50. I enjoyed the arugula. There were a lot of candied jalapenos, and I really liked the donair meat with the Cheez whiz sauce. The bread was perfectly toasted and very soft. I would go back again! read more

Nothing quite beats a fresh sandwich from Farrow! While I have only ever enjoyed their hearty sandwiches from the Ritchie location, I'm there a couple times a month. Whether you're an omnivore or herbivore you're sure to find something that suits you. My personal go-to is the Grick! A staple that's always available. A take on a breakfast sandwich, it's enjoyable any time of day. Crisp bacon, perfectly fried egg, rocket greens, cheese and tomato spread. How can you go wrong? If you're looking for something a little different, Farrow offers sandwiches of the moment, which seem to rotate about monthly. They always offer a vegan option if you're not into meat, or just want to try something new. On top of sandwiches, they also have some of the best coffee in the city... And donuts, how could we forget the donuts? Farrow is busy! So get there early to avoid disappointment. Lunch time can run you in a line up down the block. But service is super friendly and pretty quick once you have your order in. The shop it self is pretty bare bones. You can eat inside when it's not busy and there are tables outside when the weather suits you. I typically get mine to-go and it holds up well. read more

SANDWICHES! Who doesn't love a good sandwich? Plus when you've got a sandwich shop that falls under the same umbrella as the likes of Three Boars, High Dough, and Wishbone... You know that they've gotta be good. VUE Weekly named Farrow as the #1 Best Sandwiches 2018 and Avenue Magazine awarded them Best Sandwiches 2019 and Best Quick Meal 2020. They started out as one small location in Garneau in 2014 but have since expanded to three different shops (all in pretty hip areas of the city). I am someone who loves to crush a good sandwich and have been very excited to try Farrow for a long time. I popped into their original location on a gorgeous Friday fall evening. It should be noted that the Garneau location is the only one of the three that stays open until 7pm, making dinnertime sandwiches possible. The rest operate more as breakfast or lunch spots. The shop is small, with a chalkboard menu, a counter to order at, and not much else. The colour scheme is a somewhat graphic-styled black and white. The focus is solely on sandwiches, coffee and baked goods. It completely embodies the idea of providing an easy place to grab a quick (yet delicious!) breakfast or lunch on the go. And that's exactly where Farrow stands out and apart from the rest: this place offers quality. The sandwich menu usually involves four different choices. Two of the sandwiches are always on the menu and are always available, while the other two rotate every few weeks. I figured that it would be a good idea to try a sandwich from each of these categories. The people working at the shop were wonderfully friendly. They were so happy to help accommodate and made sure that I had everything that I needed. I was planning to take my sandwiches to the park area just south of the restaurant and sit at a picnic table to eat them. This idea worked out perfectly and I highly recommend it! Once your order is placed, you exit the shop and wait outside by the pick-up window. Farrow has installed a sandwich slide and it's the most incredible thing ever. When your sandwich is ready they'll slide it down the chute and into your eager hands! I absolutely love this. My first sando selection was the Chief Beef (Roast beef, horseradish mayo, pickled red onions, ruffle chips, greens - $10.50). This is one of the ones that is typically always available and I had to try it, especially if it's basically one of their signature sandwiches. I loved this. It tasted super fresh and it was just a good, solid sandwich. The bread was grainy and tasted homemade. I loved the tender roast beef, slight tangy heat from the mayo, and hit of acidity from the red onions. But most of all, I loved the addition of the ruffle chips because they added such an incredible crunch to each bite. This thing is basically a lesson in exactly what a good, simple sandwich should be. Next I tried the Chili Ray Cyrus (Chili pork, refried beans, diced onion, shredded cheddar, crispy jalapeño, greens, sour cream - $12.50) which is one of the ones that rotates on the menu. This sandwich was different from the first one in the sense that the previous sando felt quite classic. Whereas this one tasted more like a flavour punch in the face. Both are excellent in their own way! I adored the bread on this one, so soft and fresh with a great crustiness. The flavours were big in a Tex-Mex sort of way. The pork was ultra savoury and delicious and there was a hit of heat. I found myself really enjoying the diced onion a lot (which surprised me!) because it added a great texture and flavour that worked. I barely noticed that there was any cheddar on the sandwich but there was a lot of (good) things going on and a lot of the flavours were kinda mashing together. I can definitely see a habit forming where I am going to need to try all of their rotating sandwiches all the time. I didn't order a coffee to drink because it was already pretty late in the day and I didn't want to be awake all night. However, I certainly did need to try some of their baked goods which are made in-house by their talented team of pastry magicians. These also rotate regularly, so I grabbed what was speaking to me at the moment: a Carrot Cake Donut and a Pumpkin Caramel Cronut. Both of these were incredible. They felt perfectly seasonal and you had better believe that I enjoyed eating them as the leaves gently blew off the trees all around me. The carrot cake donut had a great yeast donut base that wasn't too sweet or greasy. The cream cheese icing was exactly what you would expect on carrot cake. Plus the chunks of actual carrot cake, sunflower seeds and raisins were truly delightful. The pumpkin caramel cronut was pretty next-level. If you've ever had a cronut before, you know that it's the sinful lovechild between a croissant and a donut. The sugary pastry is very croissant-esque except that this one was stuffed with spicy-sweet pumpkin filling, a very welcome discovery. The caramel glaze on top was the literal icing on the cake. read more

The best sandwich shop in town! This location is tucked away on 109 Street, which is great if you're heading for a walk around the Ave. They have a rotating selection of sandwiches and they always have a veggie option. Actually this is where I discovered that candied jalapenos are delicious on a sandwich! They also have some treats! Usually a selection of donuts and cruellers, which is worth it. It can be a bit of a wait around the lunch hour, so come early and be ready for a bit of a wait. Also there's a few picnic tables nearby or you could head closer to the U of A to enjoy your sammie outside! read more

Farrow Sandwiches & Coffee - Sandwiches of the day! - Cafes Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Delicious sandwich options. Funky vibe. Disappointing that there is no where to sit, though.

I had to try the hype that is their cronuts- and they met the hype. I got the eggnog filled ones with caramel and they were light and flaky and basically melted in your mouth. They were actually better than I expected which is always a good thing. I ordered over the phone in the morning for pick up after work and their order and pick up process was easy and the staff were nice on the phone and efficient when I was there. read more

Ritchie location. Had the bacon and egg sandwich. The egg yolk exploded all over after second bite. it got ALL OVER my shirt, hands, dripping down all over and some got on my pants. I will never order this again and probably will not return at all. if I had not had an extra shirt in my car I would have had to go home. Who makes a bacon and egg sandwich with a sunny side up egg in it? VERY disappointed! read more

I went here for the first time yesterday with my boyfriend for brunch and I was really impressed. There was a bit of a lineup when we arrived, but it moved quickly. The menu was a bit limited with just 5 different sandwiches to choose from, but they all sounded amazing! I appreciate places that have a small menu and do those meals well. I've heard the menu changes, which keeps you wanting to go back! I had the Guac & Roll (vegan) and my boyfriend had the Chief Beef. My sandwich was one of the best ones I've had in a long time! So much flavor. I tried a bite of the Chief Beef - it was good too, but I didn't think it was as good as mine. We also shared a pour over coffee (Kuma from Guatemala). I typically don't drink my coffee black, but it was so good on its own it didn't need anything else. I'm not a big doughnut fan, but we decided to share one with a cream-cheese icing with pumpkin crumble topping... I think my boyfriend got two bites in before I ate the entire thing! The decor of the space was simple, but trendy. Seating was pretty limited; at least when we went. One of us had to stand for awhile until another spot opened up. Its certainly meant as more of a to-go style. read more

Farrow Sandwiches is hip(ster) and small. The entrance looks like you're about to walk into someone's apartment but don't fret, once you open the door, you'll know you're in the right place. But seriously, the place only has three stools to sit! Soooo small but the vibe is cool and the music is bumpin'. Hip hop music? Yes, please, all day 'errday. The music they had playing was pretty sweet, some sort of French rap/hip hop mix. There are four sandwiches to choose from that rotate on a daily basis. The only sandwich that is stable is the Grick Middle. As I just had a banh mi recently in Chinatown (helloooooo $4 deals at Van Loc). I thought I'd give their take on banh mi a shot and see if paying double the price tag would be worth it. - Banh mi over Baghdad ($9) - spiced pulled pork, cucumbers, daikon and carrot slaw, hoisin and sesame mayo. Verdict - the pulled pork was pretty flavourful and tender but I didn't get any spicyness in the meat. The sesame mayo definitely gave it a flavourful punch and obviously, you wouldn't find that in a traditional banh mi. I didn't like the cucumbers though - flavourless and they were cut weirdly for a banh mi. Good but I'll stick to Chinatown. I like the concept (especially the name connection with Three Boars) but the sandwiches aren't the biggest. It was enough to tide me over but if this had been solely my lunch, I would still have been hungry afterwards. Hashtag hangry even (just kidding). Tip - apparently they have a loyalty card so if you go lots, enquire about that! read more

Wow! Our first visit to Farrow Sandwiches and the hype is real thinking about the sandwiches got me drooling. I love the atmosphere and the hipster vibes. I got to try the two staple sandwiches that they offer and I see why it is permanently on the menu. They were unreal! The sauce and meat combination was made to perfection. Grick Middle - Four Whistle Farms Fried Egg, Bacon, Smoked Cheddah, Rosemary Aioli. Greenz Melt in your mouth goodness! The egg was cooked perfectly for this sandwich, as it was not runny and not over cooked. I loved the aioli , it was so flavorful. Chief Beef - Roast Beef, Horseradish Aioli, Pickled Red Onions, Rip-L Chips, Greenz Chips in a sandwich! Say whaaaa?? It brings me back to when I was younger and chips are my weakness! As for the donuts, they were like a mini cake lol it satisfied my sweet tooth without feeling guilty that I ate a whole cake my favorite were the cronuts. Croissant in a donut form. I am not sure if these flavors change from time to time but it's worth grabbing one. read more

It's always such a pleasure going to Farrow. The sandwiches are delicious and the rotating menu makes it ever exciting and fresh. Their coffee and baked goods selection is out of this world, and adds to the quality of the meal. The place is almost "too hip" if you know what I mean, which makes it a little unwelcoming at times. read more

Farrow Sandwiches & Coffee - Noelle's Trick and a cold brew. DELICIOUS! - Cafes Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

It's been awhile since I've been here sandwiches were reasonable great place for students who want to fill up on bread etc ...

I had seen these guys at Taste of Edmonton a couple years back. I believe it was them, but I may be mistaken. Had their pulled pork sliders. They we're so good, I got my fat duff back on my bike and went back again the same day to wait in line for another. Anyways I noticed they have a spot in the Garneau area. They do samwiches and coffee. Decided to check it out on Friday. Small place. Only had 3 seats. Just barely enough room to wait for your sanwich to be made. I got the feeling you aren't supposed to sit and eat inside there. There are picnic tables outside. Great for summer time. Service was friendly. The place got busy. I ended up getting the "Robert Donario" or so I recall the name. Super super good. Donair meat on a sub with sweet sauce, pickled onions I believe, tomatos and more. Again, really tasty. Inhaled the sanwich and hit the road. Great place to sit and relax in the summer/ nice weather outside I imagine. If its winter, I think its better to purchase and go. The place is just tiny. read more

There's nothing basic about these sandwiches, and if you're a coffee lover, you've definitely come to the right place. Farrow is like the upper tier of godlike sandwiches, and I swear the Grick will make any bad day (or hangover, let's be honest, we've all been there), infinitely better. The staff is super creative with their concoctions and service is always great. An epic addition to Edmonton's food scene, and one I hope will be around for a long time to come! read more

One word. Amazing. The good: Went just last week for a quick lunch and had the beef sandwich. (gosh forgot the name of it now) but very good. Surprised it was cold but didn't take away from the experience at all. Also had the pour over coffee. They have the method down to a science. I have been to many places that just "half do" a pour over and always results in a poor coffee. The bad: the restaurant is extremely small and doesn't have much sitting room. read more

Yum, Yum, Yum! So glad that I finally was able to check out this little gem. Now, when I say little, I mean it is a small space. There are only 3 bar stools in the joint so it is probably better to order and go. This With that being said, the sandwiches and baked goods are worth the venture! I ordered the Getting Into Truffle and my friend ordered the Chief Beef. We asked them to cut the sandwich so that we could share. Both were equally delicious. I love truffle so having a hint of that deliciousness in the mayo of this cheddar chorizo filled sandwich made my day! The cheddar melted onto the chorizo and the fennel and arugula toppings were crisp and the tomato jam was an excellent finish. Lot's of flavour! The Chief Beef sandwich is large and served with cold beef. The garlic aioli and the ripple chips are the perfect finish with the salty and crunchy texture. It kind of reminded me of my childhood and the chip sandwiches I made, however, this was much more grown up and refined. We finished off our meal with one of their in house made donuts which were excellent. All in all - a great little place to have a big delicious sandwich. read more

amazing food! i got the beef sandwich and its sooo good! i also got a cookie and a cronut and both did not disappoint! will definitely go back when im in the area :) read more

Farrow Sandwiches & Coffee - Grick Middle - Cafes Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Gotta say I probably never would have stopped here if Farrow didn't show up in Avenue as one of the top 3 "Best To Go". Farrow is pretty small and there isn't really any sitting space - probably a top reason it is a "best to go" place. Farrow sports 4 sandwiches, coffee and some other sides (I.e. Soda, snacks). I got the chicken pot pie and grick middle. The chicken pot pie sandwich was made like a grilled cheese with pie pastry and filling in the middle. Overall, an interesting twist on chicken pot pie and it was pretty tasty. The grick middle is a breakfast sandwich. I didn't like this sandwich as much. The egg is done over easy so the broken yolk made it messy to eat. Also I'm not sure if it was the jam,aioli or the bacon but it tasted like bbq sauce, which was kind of over powering and not something I would imagine wanting in the morning. I'd say Farrow is definitely at least worth a try. read more

I continuously see this place on Instagram which has always made me want to give it a try. I find all of the locations are in difficult spots to get to but now with work close it was my time to try farrow. The inside is a very small location and they have stairs in the corner of the standing area which takes up a large amount of space which would really help with extra seating since all the three spots were taken upon arriving. We ended up trying the "grick middle" and "the poultrygeist". The food was flipping incredible. I would come back here everyday of the week!!! The flavours were incredible, such different ingredients but everything worked. I found the cashier not the friendliest but the cooks were pleasant and smiling. read more

Well... what does one say after paying $8 for a vegan sandwhich the size of one's palm whose patty was made from cauliflower and chick peas. That's clever? You could do that? I'll go with "that's good, really good!" I also had a bite of the breakfast sandwhich ($7.25) which had this wonderful sauce. The funny thing is I can't remember the names of any of these burgers! This tiny joint next door to Three Boars really packs a punch. However, there are maybe three or four seats inside and a picnic table outside. So when you visit, just know that likely you will be taking yours to go. I like small businesses that specialize. My rating is 3.5 stars. Round up for being a small business underdog and being a pretty cool place. Now if I only can remember the names of the sandwiches.... read more

Farrow Sandwiches & Coffee - A vegan sandwhich who's patty was made from cauliflower and chickpeas. - Cafes Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

I used to be a regular and have filled up several of their loyalty punch cards, I think I've pulled back quite a bit and probably only find myself here about once a month. I guess I feel the price is slightly high compared to other sandwich options out there, and that adds up pretty quick if I'm grabbing them several times a week. I love how creative they get with their sandwich filling combinations, the vegan sandwich always tempts me with it's wacky creative name and the fact that I know it won't be around long. There have been many that I regretted missing after spotting the photo on Instagram or Facebook (and yes, I receive notifications via facebook of their posts 'cause I need to know what their current offerings are). The Grick Middle (sans bacon for me, pls, thx.) is my go-to though. Fried egg, over easy, tomato jam, rosemary aioli, arugula... mmmmmm.... Watchout!! this can get a little messy!! So satisfying, so consistently perfect, it's their main staple I think, you can't go wrong. They once made the very best sandwich I've ever had in my life. The Jolly Molly. It was similar to The Grick Middle, but instead of bread, it was all sandwiched together between a couple of buttermilk pancakes. I still dream about this thing. I believe it was actually only available for that one day and it was quite possibly never ever brought back again. I do know that it sold out early. Sometimes that happens here, so go early.... I've been burned a few times, showing up just a wee bit late. read more

Farrow Sandwiches & Coffee - Shared to Instagram last year. Vegan. I think it was called "Remember that time I polenta $5" ('cause polenta patty, duh). - Cafes Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Farrow is one of my absolute favourite places in Edmonton to grab a quick bite to eat. While the menu is limited, I always find something delicious to eat. They have 4-5 rotating sandwiches on their daily menu, one of which is always vegan-friendly. They tend to steer away from classic (aka boring) sandwiches and instead offer creative and interesting flavours. My favourite so far would have be be the "lil kimchi". They also have some of the best coffee on 109th which is really saying something on this street. Don't waste your money at Starbucks! They even sell bottled cold brew if you want to save your coffee for later. Seating is very limited but they do have a couple picnic tables outside as well as 4 indoor seats. Their only flaw is that they close at 7pm. I'd LOVE to be able to pick up a late-night sandwich! read more

One of my fave sandwich shops...original creations, fresh house made ingredients, great pour over coffee, and some kick a$$ beats round out this local gem. My favourite is the Chief Beef...roast beef, arugula, pickled onions, chips and garlic aioli between two slices of delicious bread. The Grick Middle is also another great choice. There is pay street parking, a small counter inside that you can eat on (3-4 seats) and some picnic tables out front, so it can get pretty crowded if you were planning on eating here. We prefer to just pick up and go to a nearby park to eat. read more

Farrow Sandwiches & Coffee - Cafes Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

I had never even heard of Farrow Sandwiches when it was suggested to me. I'm always up for trying something new, so this was one of those "hey, why not?!" moments. Walking into Farrow, there isn't a whole lot of space, but the atmosphere is warm and inviting - not to mention it smells amazing! The menu isn't huge to choose from (there is like 4 or 5 options for sandwiches), but everything looked so good. I ended up choosing the "Frank's Grimey", and I can tell you - I wasn't disappointed! The combination of braised pulled pork, tomato, lettuce and sweet pickles left little to be disappointed about. It probably would have tasted better if I had kept the ranch and blue cheese on it, but I'm a picky eater and neither of those make it on my must-have list. If you're in the Whyte Ave area and you are looking for something quick yet filling for lunch, definitely check out Farrow Sandwiches! read more

My wife loves sandwiches. I could take 'em or leave 'em. Whenever I can find a well-reviewed sandwich place I will make a date night out of it. That's what we tried with Farrow Sandwiches. Instead, we had one of the strangest dining experiences ever. We showed up about 45 minutes before closing. The place was empty, two staff on site, tunes playing in the background. I read ahead so I knew what I wanted. My wife quickly decided from the handwritten menu above the counter. We ordered to stay, got a bag of chips and a drink and took a seat. We then watched the situation unfold. The guy in the kitchen had to be new and needed extra assistance. He didn't seem to understand the order as it was given to him by the cashier. After explaining what to do, you could sense the frustration felt by the cashier. Slowly, oh so slowly, the cook worked through his process to prepare the food. Others customers came in to place to-go orders. Still no food for us. At this point, the cook came over and turned up the music really loud and started grooving to the tunes while frying the food on the grill. The cashier, with his frustration ever increasing, went over without speaking and turned the music down again. A few minutes later, up went the music. Back and forth. Up and down. This continued the entire time we were there. Finally, about 10 minutes before closing, the food came out. Instead of leaving it up to the cashier to handle, the cook came and gave the food directly... to the people who came after us! Out they went with the wrong sandwiches (they ordered something else) and we were left with nothing. The cashier noticed, approached us and apologized. We weren't upset but he knew this wasn't ideal. When the to-go order came out, he personally altered the sandwiches to match our order. We ate, laughed about it, and left. The experience was unbelievable but not in a good way. Sadly, and this was the kicker, the same can be said for the sandwiches. Although passable, they were nothing special. If they were it may have helped make up for the evening. As it is, there was nothing there that would pull me back for a second visit. read more

There's a sandwich shop that has been causing quite the buzz in the Edmonton food scene for the past few months. I've never been a huge sandwich person. I mean, I would happily take a hot bowl of noodle soup over a sandwich any day. But sometimes there are those days where I just crave a really good sandwich. The minds behind Three Boars Eatery are those behind Farrow, and this sandwich shop is located conveniently next door. Like Three Boars, the space is tiny and seating is limited, but in the summer the picnic tables out front are a perfect spot to enjoy your lunch and soak up some Vitamin D. When Farrow is open for business they're serving up sandwiches and coffee to the hungry crowds from 7AM - 2PM. Being in the university area it's great place to stop for breakfast whether you're on your way to class or work. But for me, I popped in on a random afternoon for a quick bite as I was in the area. The menu changes often, and out of the choices available that day I went with the Grick Middle ($7): bacon, fried egg, greens, tarragon aioli, tomato jam, smoked cheddar. I am a sucker for fried eggs in sandwiches and burgers, especially when the yolk is golden and runny. There wasn't a big burst of flavour like I was hoping for, but the flavours in the sandwich complemented one another. The oozing egg yolk tied everything together and overall it was a good sandwich. My boyfriend went with the Chief Beef ($8): roast beef, pickled onion, chips, arugula, horsey mayo. The sandwich was substantial and full of fixins, but what I enjoyed most was the added crunch from the chips! It really changed up the texture of the sandwich, and I'm thinking I may need to sneak a few chips into the next sandwich I make for myself. When you're in the university area and in a bit of a rush, Farrow might be the perfect spot for you to grab lunch on the go. Most sandwiches are $7-$8 and they have options to cater to the vegan crowd too. With a wide range of sandwich combinations and their willingness to support local producers - what isn't to love? read more

When I'm in town, I have a list of greatest hits that I must visit. But I love being introduced to new joints! Especially when delicious coffee is involved. My friend had suggested this place because of the delicious pour-over coffees and unique sandwich combinations. This place is tiny with only three stools inside but picnic tables outside(perfect for the summer!). But it has a chill aesthetic inside with some t-shirts and pour over contraptions for sales. Plus some signage about a coffee club for those passionate about good beans for home. The menu was small but written in chalk, so I imagine a lot of changes in the menu and high quality! I decided to stick to the original Grick Middle(I was tempted to get the surprise grick but I wasn't THAT hungry) and the phil & seb(honduras) pour-over coffee. The sandwich was on a delicious bun with the most perfect cooked egg, slightly runny, tasty bacon and fresh arugula. I was not disappointed! The coffee tasted great black and I added a little cream for richness. It was divine. I also grabbed a rice crispy treat with the blue whale candy... it was a delicious late night snack while I wrote this review. I would definitely come again! Tasty and fresh eats & coffee. Mmmmm read more

So I haven't reviewed Farrow's yet which is insane because I've been here so many times and it never fails to impress me! If you haven't checked them out yet it's a must! They're located down the street from itdog and rememdy, in a tiny little hole-in-the-wall. Their sign is plastered on the window and they have a cute, blue house door that usually just rigged open during the summer. So needless to say, its a small little joint but it shouldn't be easy to miss! The workers are always friendly and working hard - it can get pretty busy during summer lunch hours. Its not always the easiest place to go and sit inside but they do have park tables outside for more seating. Their menu changes quite frequently and they always have the craziest combinations.. but it always works together! However the one that does stay is their Grick which I actually haven't tried but have heard it's great. It's a great place if you like to switch things up and are willing to try some inventive sandwhiches. I think their uniqueness sets them apart and that's why I love it so much! Like I said, a must try place for a quick, easy lunch! read more

This place is amazing. They have unique sandwiches that hits all the flavour profiles and there cronuts are out of this world. They have been doing amazing being open during the pandemic and have been very clean. I never knew what a cronut was before I went here. I don't like donuts but this was wow. I don't like too sweet and this was perfect in every way. From the lightly sugared outside, the crunch of the fluffed pastry, the not to sweet cream on the inside and depending on the month the topping that compliments it perfectly. A must try. Love. read more

Super hipster, but in a good way. These guys have a menu of 4 to 5 boutique sandwiches that changes up every few weeks. I have tried about 4 of the different sandwiches here now, and the only thing that sucks is when you have one that SO GOOD then it's not offered anymore, it's like finding out your favourite lipstick shade is discontinued. I guess I will have to keep eating here and hope they bring back my favourites? read more

I made a quick stop to Farrow today on my way to work for a coffee and a sandwich. It's not my first time here and it won't be my last but I wasn't blown away today by the Chief Wiggum sandwich. It had roast ham, pickled red onions, horse radish mayo with arugula. I found the ham a little too salty for my liking and the the pickled onions did not add to the sandwich as it tasted a little bland. The bun was light and fluffy and not dense in anyway which is how I prefer my buns. Although this sandwich did not rock my world today, previous ones have and I will be back. It's a little shop with bar seating that seats maybe 4 people. They do have a picnic table for outdoor seating for when the weather is nice. read more

Super casual atmosphere, nice guys working the counter who know their regular customers. Feels comfortable. Sandwiches are typically between $7-9 and it's a limited menu with fun names. The Grick breakfast sandwich seems to be the one that doesn't rotate, and with good reason - delicious, gooey, and over the top tomato jam. Love it! Pair with a cold brew coffee from the tap and it's a perfect match. read more

A very small place but very cool vibe. I've been meaning to go here for some time and finally made it this morning. Tip: there is only room for 3 people to sit inside. Most sit outside. Also it is a bit hard to find. It is nestled between 3 boars and a cigar shop just north of OJs. I had the Grick middle breakfast sandwich and it was so tasty! Highly recommend it. Had their slow drip Heart coffee and it also was very fresh and so yummy. read more

Farrow Sandwiches & Coffee - Grick middle at Farrow Sandwiches - Cafes Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Tasty! Cute little place with a hipster-ish vibe. It faces the main street, but it's very inconspicuous. Totally reminds me of a food truck inside. There's the breakfast sandwich (the Grick Middle) and three other sandwiches that change frequently. I had the breakfast sandwich and the slow drip Costa Rican coffee (which was REALLY good. Reminded me of the good quality coffee I've had in Europe). The bread was so soft and fresh! I love buns that are easy to bite into. And the Rosemary aioli sauce on the bun tasted nice and was not over-powering. It also had fresh egg, bacon and arugula. My friend had one with pulled pork and apple coleslaw and said it was one of the best he's had. It can get pretty busy, but it's worth the wait if you're craving a sandwich. Not much room inside (3 stools against the window), so don't plan on getting a seat to stay. About $7 per sandwich. Will be returning! read more

Another great take on sandwiches. The building is too small and creates a waiting-room atmosphere when its cold outside. I got the Grick Middle sandwich that has the fried egg in it. I'm lucky I was sitting down and had the paper spread out when I had my first bite, the egg was sunny side up and yolk exploded everywhere on first bite. After that I sorta wolfed it down because I was battling egg goo everywhere - and it was really good! I also got a coffee, and it was some unique roast that had a spicy-sweet bite to it. I've never had a coffee with that type of flavor before. It may or may-not be what you like in coffee, but from the menu it was likely one of three varieties they were brewing but they did not disclose which one it actually was (they were so busy I didn't ask). With a limited menu and limited seating, this place can only get so popular before things change. Perhaps you should try them now, before they do. Just beware the exploding egg. read more

"Grick Middle" is worth every penny of $7.50, though I'd grab three without a second thought if they were a buck or so cheaper. Who knew tomato jam and high quality bacon made such a difference? Small location makes for minimal sitting (or standing) room, so plan on taking your food and moving elsewhere. read more
