Great vibe, butter chicken is honestly the best in the city. If you want chai, this is the spot. The Kashmiri is caffeine free! Some of the service staff seem perpetually grouchy, but having worked in service in a previous life, my sympathies are with them. Doesn't make me want to tip, though. Best things to order: butter chicken, coconut chicken, dhosa (any of them) and the chicken palak. Also, chai milkshake and syphon coffee...the grounds are never burnt! (Syphon coffee is basically a reverse French presse.) Not much street parking, but I live and work DT. read more

Downtown Edmonton suffers as a lively all hours center for a number of reasons - reputation may be the number one reason, but the landscape itself is a close number two. While there are practical reasons to create a downtown based on Pedways and interior mall-like corridors, they detract from the general livability of the downtown core. Remedy defies all presumed logic about Downtown - logic generated well before new condo/apartment developments and the LRT extension to Century Park were built. Located on the southeast corner of Jasper Ave and 103 Street, Remedy invites passers-by with picture windows which wrap the Cafe's outer walls, simple, yet chic decor, and a room full of people. Remedy downtown is open from 7:30 AM to Midnight on Weekdays and from 8AM to Midnight on Weekends, despite naysaying from other other business owners who claim that a downtown cafe cannot turn a profit after 6PM. Remedy is apparently packed at all hours. But Remedy is unique. Not only do they have rich and incredibly delicious chai, but they have a nicely stocked fridge of beer and a few bottles of wine. Additionally, they serve a number of different vegetarian and carnivore-friendly dishes. I tried the Masala Dosa, which was a bit thinner than the Dosas I'm used to, but just as delicious. I enjoyed the filling, which consisted of potatoes, peas, and a curry sauce. A small amount of lentil soup, raita, and a mint chutney accompanied the dosa. Sarah ordered the coconut "vegan chicken" dish, which was also very tasty, and a filling bargain at $10. Remedy is a fantastic addition to Downtown and should help turn Downtown into a place which will be lively at all hours. read more

Remedy definitely lives up to its name. I was already a devoted Remedy Chai Worshipper (RCW) when I decided to sample the tantalizing Chai Milkshake. Shake indeed - as in shake my soul at its very core with an earth-shattering, life changing, epiphany of flavour. With an OVERSIZED STRAW!! When I lived downtown recently, this was my go to for weekend and late evening cravings for gluten-free baking and chai. I also adore the Butter Chicken wraps - I agree, not overly saucy but absolutely packed with creamy white chicken breast and a nice hint of spice. My next favourite meal is the vegan chicken coconut curry. Comes with your choice of naan or rice. I usually get it with rice and the container is enough for two days lunches. My other favourite is their breakfast bagel with ham, cheese and egg. The cheese is ample and is usually oozing playfully out the sides. The egg is fresh and the ham is present. I treated my husband one morning and he had to call me at work later to exclaim BEST BREAKFAST BAGEL EVER. Now that I am not living downtown, it's my workday break salvation where I can stroll over and get served by the amazingly friendly staff. Today I was greeted with that ever precious I-remember-who-you-are kind of hello that only comes from great staff who recognize their regulars and even their almost-regulars. It keeps a person coming back and I definitely will. read more

The food and milkshakes are great, and this location has fewer hipster university students. They have expanded the Dhosa menu with lots of options. Service was a bit confusing, the young hipster barista was rude to my sister, and used a very condescending tone when suggesting my sister change her drink order to something else. Maybe the drink was too mainstream? However, the gentleman that brought us our order was very nice. He saw that we were sharing orders and brought the food out divided evenly onto two plates. He also offered us extra sauce and refilled our drinks twice. The food is worth putting up with a few snobs. read more

I know Remedy is known for their chai... but I hate chai! SOOO I'm not going to review it - I'll take everyone else's word on it that they have great chai! Their caramel lattes however are delish! And so is their coffee! We had the butter chicken and naan, and samosa's and they were both really great. You go up, order at the counter and then grab a seat. The only awkward part is you have to get your coffee from the other side of where most of the seats are, and then they will deliver your food. So when it's busy and you're planning on meeting someone, it gets a little tricky. I do prefer the 124 st location over the city centre location, as it's a little bit easier to navigate through the busy cafe (the city centre one is long and narrow) and on more than one occasion I've seen the manager chase out homeless asking patrons for $$. Having said that, it is a great place to grab a coffee (or, if you prefer, chai!) and continue on your day :) read more

I am definitely a fan of Remedy! It was definitely a strategic and bold move to expand with several other spots around Edmonton. This location is a wonderful gem to hit up when you are wandering around downtown. Open late so you can catch an Alleycat draft after a show or have a sit down with a chai after the 104 Street City Market. It does fill up fast; therefore, the best plan of action is to snag a spot first before ordering. It feels a bit cozier than its mother spot on 109 Street as there are fewer seats. Also, their chalkboard wall in the hallway on the way to the bathrooms gives it a neat vibe. read more

Remedy Cafe - Good Vibes with a Vanilla Rooibos Chai. - Indian Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Worst staff ever . Ordered a food for pickup late night. The staff took the order , after a 40 mins drive I reached there , & the staff says very u apologetically- Chef is gone , so no food . They didn't bother to call us to inform & its was so late that no other restaurant was open either that night & we had to sleep hungry. Such rude & cruel staff , never seen such behavior at any restaurant. read more

Best Kashmiri latte I have ever had. Too bad I don't live in Canada but when I do visit this is a must!! Very nice friendly cafe with variety of tasty food options. They have something for every taste bud. I wish I had one close to me. I'll be here every day. read more

I'm slightly bitter because my favourite place down the street, Transcend, closed down, but Remedy is an okay second choice. I do like their matcha lattes, and they FINALLY improved their soy milk--it used to be the worst in the city, but now it's awesome. I find I get sick of the Indian food seriously fast. It seems really salty or something? However, their choices for gluten-free/vegan treats are amazing, and some of the prices are super reasonable too. I love having so many treats to choose from. This is so rare! I think the thing I most dislike about this place though is that it feels "cold." There is something about the atmosphere that doesn't make me want to park myself here and chill. I'm no interior decorator, but I have some suggestions: put some drapes on the windows, dim the lighting, and give the tall tables some character. (Maybe even wipe them more often, please? Love the graffiti in the bathroom, but the paper towels all over the floors, sticking to my shoes is bleh!) But really, it's still a pretty good choice. Where else are you going to go at 11 at night in the area? Denny's? I choose Remedy. read more

Four of us ordered three butter chicken wraps and one Chana masala wrap. The wraps came out 3 green-filled and one orange-filled. We advised the staff of the obvious mistake (two of us at the table were west-Indian and grew up on this food). They insisted that although the butter chicken is orange when served on a plate, it's green when served in a wrap. Really? Food was amazing whatever it was, but somebody here is misinformed, lying or not paying attention. Great environment, food, people, but we were all bewildered with the menu and/or staff knowledge of menu. read more

I am a regular here out of pure convenience and I work right across the street. While this place has an amazing menu... Butter chicken... Samosas... Grilled ham and cheese (yes, that's right. Don't judge), it seems to be lacking in service. No matter what time I come, I can't get my food in under 20 minutes from the time I order, not including standing in line. And TBH, I usually just get the grilled ham and cheese. I've gone earlier than 11:30 but it's always a long wait. The baked goods are good, and they have a good selection of gluten free and vegan, and their food is tasty, so I give them two stars for that. Oh ya, they have milkshakes too. But the wait for the food is not justifiable. They need to hire more kitchen staff or get more equipment. Is downtown workers, we ain't got time for that! read more

I really, really enjoy Remedy. It's a nice place that serves great lattes and great food. After I came to Remedy for the first time I was absolutely hooked. The Chai is delicious, and the London Fogs are really good as well. It's a nice place to come in and hang out, preferably with other people. On Sundays I like to grab a table and study or read, but there are generally larger tables with a few chairs, so I feel like I'm taking up space that I don't need. The staff are super friendly and down to earth, and I don't feel overpowered by pretension when I'm ordering something or having a casual conversation with them. Service is quick, and having the stay or to go option is really convenient. The selection of food and drink they have is quite large, and it's nice that they have a lot of vegan/vegetarian options. Remedy is a nice cafe, and I will definitely be returning, as I always do. read more

I'm not an Edmontonian, so I relied on my trusty Yelp app to find a cafe so I didn't have to drop dolla dolla bills on breakfast at the Westin. What attracted me to this place was the free WiFi, and the fusion of Indian flavour with trendy cafe. If it were Calgary, this place would be infested with hipsters and yogi/yoginis. I decided to take the chance and give it a shot anyway. My thoughts? It was pretty cute. It's not an amazing breakfast spot, but they do have excellent chai. A few breakfast items like 12 grain bagels and breakfast sandwiches graced the menu. It was enough to leave me satisfied for the morning. Despite the lack of breakfast food, there were a lot of interesting things on their full menu. I suspect that this little cafe does better for midday fare. Overall, I was pretty pleased. They have quite a few tables with outlets nearby so I was able to get some work done. The girl behind the counter with the black hair was soooooo nice. She was very pleasant to deal with when the WiFi wasn't working. Normally I would be slightly pissed off, but I didn't feel bothered at all. Maybe I owe it to the soothing powers of my morning chai? read more

A place that fits like long lost glove. Great coffee and food, with a friendly staff makes this Remedy one of my favourite hang out places in downtown Edmonton. If you are feeling especially adventurous, try the Canadianano, a shot of espresso and drip coffee. Especially a nice place with the outside patio on a summer day. read more

Does Remedy really need another good review? They're pretty much packed to the brim most of the days, but surprisingly, if you need a drink to get you through work in the morning, their line's quite short then. Getting a spot at lunch/dinner could be luck of the draw... I really only go here for their chais and butter chicken (probably one of my favourites in Edmonton, their naan/rice is tasty too). Their chais are probably on the sweeter side but is packed full of flavour. Grab a stamp card too, and it'll be buy 6 get 1 free. Other drinks like London Fogs and Apple Ciders are so-so... I'd rather go to Second Cup or something for those. I'm quite impressed by their collections of tea bags though. Remedy has other good things on the menu too. The dahl soup makes a great light but filling lunch. The samosas are always hot and tasty, and they sell it in bulk (in whatever quantity you want). The Kashmiri chai is also something special and good when you don't feel like having their regular chai, or don't want caffeine. It's got some funky, flowery stuff in there (and pistachios it seems), and just somehow tastes so good. Overall, one of my favourite places to eat or to grab a quick snack in Edmonton! read more

Be specific. Ordered a gluten free dish and the apple pie (saw it in the cold case, labeled GF Apple Pie), and when my pie arrived it was not the GF pie, now was this one in the cold case (went back to check in case the mistake was mine). They were however nice enough to comp the GF pie for me when I went back with the wrong pie. The food is amazing. Always looking for great Indian food and this place nailed it! And their chai is pretty fantastic too. The Kashmiri chai (decaf), a little interesting. It's a green tea base and topped with rose petals and pistachio. Leaves a thick, green sludge at the bottom of the mug. read more

A friend recently introduced me to this restaurant and I was floored by the taste. There are many things to like about the place, besides the taste. Lots of choices and customizing options. Normally when you have too many options, it can be confusing. However here it was clearly listed. One thing to note, not all listed in their menu may be available on a given day. Some are items for a specific day, I was told. The price was very reasonable. The setting was relaxing and the staff were warm and helpful to understand the menu. You can of course take out as well. I just had one item from the menu and I liked it. My friends seem to enjoy their food as well. One thing to note, you will see lot of East-Indian influence and some real-authentic south-Indian (food specific to south-India) items on the menu. This in itself a pleasant surprise. Also great choices for Vegetarians, Vegans The decor was very interesting as I was told the painting on the walls were displays from local artists that can be purchased. I plan to visit and try more on their menu and will keep updated. Definitely a place to try if you enjoy different kind of food. read more

This is my first visit to the downtown location, but I've frequented the 109th St location for years and this location is the same experience. Everything I've had, from baked goods, to hot drinks to food have been solid. I enjoy the chai, maybe the best in the city in a cafe, but truly for me, as a big chai drinker, I've had better chai in many a South Asian restaurant on 34th Ave. The ginger kashmiri chai's are a wonderful change and I tend to go for those. I've had most of the dishes, but I can't say in particular that I have a favorite and they're by no means cheap. Again, I have to compare what I get here to a local restaurant. It's good, but none of it blows me away. Today I had the goat curry with rice for $12.50. They have a two samosa and chai deal which is a pretty good deal. Their bakery options are quite unique. There are lots of vegan and gluten free sweets and often flavour and texture is sacrificed for one or both of the goals. Although, I do not seek out these options, I have had occasion to try them out and in my opinion, they are still pretty good, if you want something sweet. I may be coming off a little harsh in my review, but to be honest, remedy does fill a great niche in the city for me. I am generally not a cafe lover, but if I had to choose one in the city to frequent, this would be it. read more

Remedy #1 was my go-to at age 16. Couches, good friends, and good chai sold me. But now with Remedy #2 on Jasper Ave, I have a little bit more "refined" surroundings versus the cramped but cozy confines of #1. Lots of sunlight, plenty of seating, and despite the dungeon walk to the toilets, it's a cheerful little place. Remedy has kept the delicious menu (try the samosas), the great drink menu (bottled and fresh brewed), and the atmosphere that Edmontonians have come to love. Getting a bagel sandwich in the morning can be a timely endeavor, but I assure you that it's worth it. read more

One of my favourite spots to come paint, or have lunch with a friend. Very open, relaxed atmosphere. Although it's quite busy, I've never had trouble finding seating. The food is great, and drinks are very creative. Great options for people with dietary restrictions, which I really appreciate. Plus, it's close to some of my favourite book shops, so it's always a nice place to pop by if you're on the go and need a bit of caffeine or snack. read more

Interesting cross between a western and non-western coffee shop. I really liked this place. The chais are much spicier than any western coffee shop, and really good. I had a chili chicken wrap that was crispy on the outside and came with a green sauce with a nice kick to it. The vibe here is really casual. Might be hard to find a power outlet if you're looking to use your laptop here - I managed to find one on one of the square tables by the window, but didn't see many others. This would definitely be a regular spot for me if I lived here. read more

I love it's Big Latte and the little dessert on the counter. The white fried ones with sugar and meat in it. Can't remember the name but it tastes awesome. The restaurant layout is good for me coz I like wide space. There are quite a lot of interesting alcohols there too. I didn't order any but I'll try next time. read more

Every time I visit Edmonton, I stop here almost every day to get their Chai latte and samosas. Both are amazing and, during the winter, real life savers. I usually get everything to go and eat in my office / room (while working). Being able to get decent chai in a cafe is just incredible, and these folks are consistently good at it. read more

Remedy is awesome, love how they're vegan and local! Love the chai they make, it's so perfect on a frosty winter day. It's a decent place to study if you don't mind background noise and such. It's a great place for a first date, interview, meeting friends e.t.c.. The only reason I took one star off for this location is because it's quite smaller then the one on Whyte! A definite must for people to check out :) (Wish it was bigger) read more

Went to the third location on Whyte. Same drinks overall with a smaller selection of food or bakery items. Service at the front was indifferent and no one seemed in a rush to clear old dishes. Nice that the space, the paint job and the coffee mugs are all new. The sitting area is a little cramped however, lots of high bar-style seating, not quite the space you could camp in for long periods. If their goal here is higher customer turnover, this location does have that setting and feel. That might be a good thing for Whyte Ave. read more

Mmm chai... I'm a big Remedy fan, but now that I'm not in school anymore, I don't find myself on the south side of the river much and I was really missing it. This new location doesn't quite have the atmosphere of the southside, but the food and drink are the same, and I love that there are so many windows. There's been a lot of talk about downtown revitalization, and I have to give Remedy a lot of credit for being open until midnight every night when almost every other downtown business closes early. Hopefully it will catch on. read more

Great coconut London fog and tandoori chicken wrap. An eclectic place- would love to go back and try more of the food.

I have heard both good and bad things about this location. My experiences have always been good here. My only complaint is that it can become quite crowded with the laptops and university students during the evenings. I am a huge fan of the Chai. The spices are imported directly from India and the owner has his very own signature blend. You can get almond milk, which is great for those of us that are lactose intolerant and can't do soy. There are two versions, a regular and a Kashmir. Try them both! The Indian fusion on the food menu is pretty damn good! My favourite is the Butter Chicken Wrap. Wonderful Butter Chicken all bundled up in the wrap and then grilled like a Panini. They serve it with an apple cinnamon dipping sauce which is heavy on the cinnamon and compliments all of the flavours perfectly. They have lots of great vegan options for pastries and snacks if that is the way you go. They also have a fancy selection of hand brewed espresso and a wide variety of teas. Oh did I mention the free wifi? The reason why all the university students come here. They also have a nice selection of craft beer available so you can enjoy that Taj Mahal with your wrap! read more

Damn this place for opening up 2 blocks away from work...I am spending SO much money here now. This place has the best chai lattes I've ever had and I find myself actually craving them. The staff are great and are always super friendly and chatty. I especially love the one lady who usually works weekday afternoons (dark hair, tonnes of tattoos). She is probably the most friendly person I've ever I've bought something from! read more

Tried this place because of all the hype and buzz around the city surrounded this company. The atmosphere was amazing, the staff was super friendly. I got a iced dirty chai, and as soon as I finished my drink I had a sore throat. It felt super itchy and dry. The next day I woke up with a sore throat. Cleanliness is something I value highly when choosing my restaurants and that was absolutely not okay. I have reported them to AHS. Thought it must've been me, though I checked www.albertahealthservices.ca and clicked on remedy cafe and this specific address and this health violation came up. Violation noted: The mechanical dishwasher is not adequately sanitizing utensils. I had to share my experience, dont think I will return after this. read more

I've been to Remedy many times before but I was particularly happy this time. I was downtown on a Sunday night trying to find a place for a drink with a friend. This was the only place open after stopping at four other locations. The beer selection was good, the place was hopping, the server was kind and IT WAS OPEN! I normally visit in the day time and get a chai. If you ever go, please get the chai. It's hand crafted from more than 20 spices. Well worth it! read more

I love Remedy!!! So many vegan options, and always packed with people. We came last night (Tuesday) around 6:30 pm and it was full! My friend ordered a vegan chicken Indian wrap and loved it. I've tried their vegetable masala dosa before and I highly recommend it! read more

Yummy, yummy chai! This is a fairly big location so there's plenty of room for just yourself or even a small group. It can get busy though, especially during exam season!, so be prepared to fight for a seat. The service here is always great! Friendly, but not pushy, and your order comes out fairly quickly. Try the butter chicken, you won't regret it! (Their wraps are also pretty good if you're on the go!) read more

Best Indian in Edmonton! You can get famous Indian food like Butter Chicken as a dish or in a wrap. Highly recommend Chicken Chana! Prices are a bit high - about $9 for a wrap with no side order. Samosa was expensive - $1.50 for one and nothing special about it. They are know for their chai latte - also expensive for $4.50 - more than Starbucks but taste better. Great atmosphere, love the East Indian feel and decor, love the hallway to the washroom - you can write inspiring messages on their wall :) would definitely return!! read more

I stopped into remedy twice in the past two months, I ordered a ice blended matcha latte and an iced cider. I was honestly disappointed in both.. The blended iced latte, had no ice. I was expecting a slushy type of drink, kinda like a frappuccino but it was only slightly cold. The iced cider was very disappointing. I watched it made, with minimal ice that melted by the time I got it, and a dump of syrup they kept under the counter, mixed in with some water in a jug. That was it.. At over $5 for this drink, I was not impressed.. I've heard the food and baked goods are great here, and the chia. Perhaps they need to revamp their iced drinks! read more

My go to orders are the Chana Masala wrap and the vegan butter chicken with naan. I also love the Kashmiri Chai. Every time you walk by a remedy, you can smell the amazing food and chai wafting by. I am a huge fan of everything on their menu and am a frequent visitor to all locations! read more

This place can be hit or miss with how the staff treat you...food is super! Drinks are delicious but pricey. You pay for quality and what you want. They support artists and are food alternative choices and all kinds of baked goods that are vegan option but still rich in flavor. A year ago everyone that greeted me on the occasions I've come in were super friendly and kind when helping. Today not so much and yesterday as well. I am assuming hey have new people and recommend they get rid of them. I've only been gone three months. The food is great and the drinks are even so. I think in going to take a break from remedy try back in a month when staff are a bit chipper. read more

Coffee? Latte? Tea? Vegan? Gluten free? Come on in. When I entered into this Remedy I was immediately surprised. I thought it'd be a lot more like the Remedy across the river over on 109th. I definitely wasn't disappointed though as this place was very clean and nicely lit with plenty of places to sit. The coffee I had was of the same great quality I had come to expect of Remedy and was happy to find another great location to go. Same awesome quality as Remedy is known for with a bit of a more open look. read more

Oh, how I missed chai. I thought the spicy tea from South Asia was a luxury of my past ever since I went off caffeine. And then I discovered the Kashmire Chai at Remedy. I was transported to nirvana with the steaming cup of creamy spicy deliciousness topped with flower petals and ground pistachios. The pastries, samosas, and other goodies are quite nice as well, but truth be told, I go for the chai. Everything else is just bonus. read more
