Branches Fresh Food Experience in Sherwood Park

Dec. 21st - Popped in for lunch. Waited 30 mins. Husband had the 6oz steak - it was done to Perfection! I had the chicken burger which was amazing Both our meals were so delicious that we can t wait to return lol. Service could have been more attentive and it s very noisy but the Chef here knows what he s doing.

So noisy

Tried to stop in at Branches this evening for a coffee and a treat before our 3 hour drive home. When the hostess asked how many were dining we said we only wanted to order a coffee to go. Apparently they stop serving take out during certain hours of the day (which doesn t seem to be posted anywhere online) when they are busy . The restaurant wasn t even half full. If they can t handle making two coffees to go I would hate to see a full dining room. We tried to get them to bend their rule since we bypassed at least 5 other coffee shops in favor of Branches. Definitely left a bad taste in our mouths. Very disappointed in the service, or lack there of, that we received.

Look good. But consumers need a thicker wallet to enjoy the food and services. Vegetarian options: You can replace bacon with stirred eggs. Food : 5/5 |

They close 1 hour before they close. Drove 45 minutes to the restaurant. They said they are open until 9, but stop serving at 8. Because that is logical, right? Turned me away at 8:20. Need to work on their common sense.

This place is a hide gem! Tucked in the back of the garden center. So awesome food amazing, service fantastic and atmosphere with views simply the best!!

Well sat down outside all waitresses stood at the bar was not busy at all and did not serve us we waited no one even came to bring water or ask what we wanted to drink just stood at the bar all 4 of them. So we left go some where else where they will serve us.

My husband and I came here for a bite to eat while shopping for plants...I got the breakfast pizza and he got the breakfast bowl. My pizza was pretty soggy in the middle where I couldnt pick it up as it was just fold in half...as I got to the outside of the pizza it was good. My husband loved his breakfast bowl though. Service was meh, we asked for the bill which she brought to us. We sat there for 20 minutes waiting for a debit machine to pay...she never did come with it. So we got up and went inside where 4 or 5 waitresses were standing. We had to ask one of them to pay so we could leave...it was really awkward. All in all, I probably wouldnt drive all the way from leduc to eat there.

Amazing, everything was perfect

Absolutely a wonderful place to dine, lovely gardening center, together with an abunt giftware section. We visit ever time we come to Edmonton. Thank uou!a

it was fine but on the patio there were so many wasps and flies. wish that there was better care for that. the service is the redeeming thing; very kind waitresses

The scallops were amazing and the avocado bacon chicken sandwich was although I felt it needed something tangy like tomato or an aioli. It was kind of plain tasting in a way.

Breakfast pizza was great

very cute place to have lunch! took my boyfriend here for his bday and he loved it!

Love this experience

The BEST steak sandwich Ive ever had.

Always get the pizza! Amazing food.

Best smoked salmon pizza!!! Delicious.

First time I want to give more than 5 stars. Exceptional food, atmosphere and very accommodating, hard working and humble staff. Highly & sincerely recommended. Kid-friendliness: They were very nice and kind to my loud 6 year old daughter!

This restaurant advertises a date night promotion Fridays until 8 pm. My wife and I drove out and arrived at 7:10 and were told the kitchen was closed. Thanks for wasting our time!

Branches did an excellent job. One food item came out very late and server said manager took item off the bill and gave us a free dessert. Very impressed that it was handled so professionally. We will be back.

everything good EXCEPT the NOISE level, impossible to carry on a conversation, thankful the music was not on (I dont think). Wheelchair accessibility: easy

It s was impressive to see a restaurant inside of a garden center. I tried their pizza which was very good. Food

Weve dined here at least a dozen times over the years and itsbeen very nice. Never have I had the poor food and service we experienced last Friday. 3/4 of an hour for a pizza and a stir fry? Which arrived AFTER the two tables next to us were seated, ordered and served! They sat down after us, larger tables and by the time we left, they were all long gone. Im all for casual slow dining but 1.5+hrs for lunch is excessive. Then the food. The salmon stir fry had more rice than anything and the marinade completely covered any salmon flavour - why bother? The pizza was essentially vegetables on bread. No sauce, so little cheese we had to search for it and there wasnt enough to taste any of it. Now Ive travelled the world and eaten pizzas all over Italy and Greece, so its not like I dont understand what the chef was going for. I honestly wouldnt be at all surprised if something was forgotten by mistake. It will be a long time before I return, if ever. Once bitten, twice shy!

Everything was amazing! Excellent service!!!Thank you so much!

Lost in space waitress, always touching her hair, face etc ... spent lots of time chatting to other staff, obviously new to her position, Food was delicious and superbly cooked. Wish they would Enlarge the restaurant as it fills up fast. A very popular place to eat.

One of my wife and Is favorite restaurants!

Always an excellent spot for brunch or lunch.

Love the food- fresh, tasty, and very well prepared! Airy and open space, and excellent service as well! Wheelchair accessibility: Very accommodating.

Must try their pizza and the beef stew.

Interesting/unique menu, very tasty food. Great atmosphere. Get there early for lunch!

They should seriously think about taking reservations. Avg waiting time is 50mins everytime Ive gone in for lunch. Its ridiculous.

Wonderful place to spend the afternoon, have breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Perfect for a gals afternoon out :) Lots of parking, spacious eating area, great service, exceptional food and large portions. A must go to spot ! Highly recommend :) Appropriately priced for what you are getting. Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating with Dietary restrictions. Parking: Lots of parking.

One of the best places to go ,great atmosphere, food is fabulous,staff is wonderful

Food taste great. My daughter gives thumbs up for the pizza that when she took the first bite. And said yummy pizza .great environment. Strongly recommend! Great service!

A little pricey but good food and good service

Great service, amazing food!

Came for brunch with a friend this weekend, the service & atmosphere were both great, But the food was AMAZING! For sure will be back this summer again!!

The breakfast pizza was amazing.

The atmosphere was great! Love that they put it in the back of the nursery. Excited to come back when everythings budding and there are blossoms out.

This restaurant attracted me as its inside the green house, it s a great location and it s give the advantage to the people those who visiting the green house can grab a bite.

This is a must Stop and have a coffee and creme brulee awesome Then stayed for dinner and then had a pizza Food : 5/5

Great location, but too bad the chef doesnt taste dishes before they go out to customers.

Came in for a Mother s Day Brunch as I had called earlier in the week to confirm Branches was having. I was told they were having a brunch from 9-2 and that it was first come first serve. We were sat after about an hour wait (not an issue as we expected long wait times due to Mother s Day and the special brunch) and were sat outside on the patio. We were given regular menus which was a little disappointing but given this was our first time dining we held out hope. My mom had the bacon mushroom pizza and I had the salmon pizza. Her pizza was flat (no pun intended); just a very boring tasting pizza. My pizza was extremely unbalanced. The salmon was salt lick level salty which was only heightened by the salty capers and cheese. The garlic sauce was the highlight of this pizza but with the addition of the pickled onions that were sweet instead of acidic this pizza was really lacking overall. The service was just as flat. Our server was polite but lacked personality and seemed to miss basic cues like checking on our table and refilling beverages. We only saw her once after our meal was dropped at the table and by that time we had finished and we re ready for the bill. They seemed well staffed so I m not sure why we were not met with a more personable experience. Too expensive for the takeaway.

I was seated within 20min of opening, relatively quickly given the fact that it was busy. My guest and I ordered at 925 am. A full hour later, I asked for my single appetizer to be checked on (cheese bread). 10 min after that, it was served. Another 25 min passed and I watched a couple with two children get served child entrees. 10 min later, the parents got their entrees. This would have been ok if they had not been seated at least 30-40 min after I made my order! About 10 min later, my two entrees finally were served. It was a 145 min to get my food. I was at the venue well over two hours with eating time. We only had three food items and we waited longer than anyone in the restaurant to be served. Rather than giving us our drinks for free or acknowledging wrongdoing, my table was avoided until I finally walked to the front to pay. My frittata was bland, there was no seasonings on the table. I was embarrassed to have brought someone with me and bit my tongue the whole time. It was my first time attending this venue. I did not complain at any point...just asked for my order to be checked one time. Thats likely when it was realized that my order must have been lost or given to someone else. Shame on you for thinking it was ok to treat me and my guest like that and ignore the ball that was dropped.

Went with a friend for breakfast. Gad the fritatta, it was so good , i have bern inspired to make them at home!! A little overpriced but since it was so inspiring ill let it go. I would go again.

I love coming here for a meal. The service is decent and the food offerings are both unique and delicious. Who can beat this gorgeous atmosphere, especially if you can eat outside.

Sat out on the patio and took in the beautiful surroundings. Waitress Payton provided excellent service. The menu had lots to offer, including gluten-free. Try the desert bar it was worth it from light lemon tarts, moist carrot cake, and Reeces blondie.

Absolutely love going here for lunch. The greenhouse makes it so relaxing. The service and staff are super. The food is also very good. The shops are also excellent and its very difficult to leave without a purchase whether its a plant, something for your home and a piece of clothing, which I doubt youll find elsewhere. Highly recommend if youre looking for a relaxing dining experience.

A real gem situated wirhin the best greenhouse in the city! Great food and usually a short wait for a seat.

The staff are SOOO awesome!

Food was good but nothing to rave about. They did not have a good selection of breakfast entrees. Our server (a tall male in his teens wearing shorts) provided really poor and awkward service today. Not sure why he made strange eye contact at us whenever he came to our table to serve us, which he wanted to make obvious for some reason. He also was not a very skilled nor an intuitive server. We had to ask him for sugar when he brought out our coffee, and then for salt + pepper when our dishes came. Please take the time to properly train your younger employees as they will be a detriment to your business...or fire them.

Excellent service and wonderful variety of foods!

Great place for happy hour

Great place. Loved the breakfast GF pizza.

Sunshine, patio, a great server, marvelous food, serene surroundings. Ahhh.

The food was incredible! This was the first time having breakfast pizza and they absolutely nailed it. Thank you for another great breakfast with very fresh food. We will continue to come back and bring friends and family

A friend took me here for lunch. Just loved the place! Next visit to the Edmonton area, I will be back!

Lovely atmosphere and fabulous food!

Update: Hey I m DELIGHTED to say that our server recently was wonderful - very kind & patient with no cold attitude whatsoever! I wish I d gotten her name. Keep it up, Branches. Kind, humble servers are KEY to a great dining experience. Previous: I wholeheartedly agree w all the reviews that say that many servers at Branches often have very dismissive, rude ATTITUDES. You get the feeling they dislike you. It s very uncomfortable as you just don t know how you re going to be treated each time you go. What a shame as the chef is so good. Shocking they get away with it all these years.

First time dining here, I always wanted to go but it s usually full. Tried my luck on a Friday night and got in any 6:30. The fish tacos were amazing, would order again that were that good. My friend had the margherita pizza and said it was just ok good. Pretty atmosphere, outstanding service .

Wonderful brunch!! Ill be back!

Awesome food but bring back the burger it was amazing the best in the Edmonton area

The layered cheese bread is ammmazing!!!!!! Also the breaky pizza.... so good. Egg nog latte great!!!! (Smoked Salmon pizza...not so much to fishy and salty)

Overall happy with our experience but my meal was definitely average. I had the breakfast bowl and the hash browns were barely cooked, cold in fact. And the meal had a strange coconut taste. I was expecting chunks of potatoes as the hash browns but I shouldve enquired. The other meals - breakfast pizza and frittata were good. The server was new and didnt even offer my mom a coffee refill. There was someone training her, but she seemed very disinterested. I did appreciate that they took 1 minute of silent for Remembrance Day. Vegetarian options: quite a good selection of items could be vegetarian

Title: A Flavorful Delight! Review: Recently tried the salmon pizza at this place, and it was hands down the most delicious thing ever! Real cheesy, just the way I like it. Its so filling; even my wife and I shared it, and hes a big eater! The kale salad was a refreshing surprise, perfectly balanced with Myras sweet and tangy vinaigrette. Kudos to the chef, Myra, for creating such culinary magic. And, of course, the chocolate cheesecake Gabby recommended for dessert was decadently divine a perfect ending to a fantastic meal. Highly recommend this spot for a culinary adventure! Time : 430 Nov 12.

Wonderful lunch - wood fired bacon mushroom pizza, polpette, spinach salad. Servings are generous (we shared a small salad and it was HEAPS!) This is a busy spot within Greenland Garden Centre - dont be surprised or upset if you have to wait. Enjoy the garden shop while you do. (We were told up to an hour wait on a Tuesday lunch hour, but our pager went off maybe about 40 minutes wait.)

Me and my friends had a fantastic time here! We were seated in a reasonable time. Our Waitress Hayley was super friendly and we got our food pretty quick considering how busy it was and it tasted great!

food was delicious nothing wrong with it, the service on the other hand was disappointing. my server Jaimie was very passive aggressive well ordering and just felt unwelcoming. over all i don t think i would return not because of the food but because of the service.

We celebrated a double Birthday here. The food, and especially the water was really tasty. The service was friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was relaxing and comfortable. We all had a great time. Thank you staff of Branches for making our celebration special!!!

I had the best experience while dining here. The food was good but the service was absolutely amazing. My server Jaimie was absolutely stellar. She definitely made the visit worth while. As I also work in the industry I can definitely appreciate her efforts. I will definitely be coming back and recommending this restaurant to all my family and friends.

Really good food but the waiter had clay on his fingers. Mildly concerning, given that all employees should wash their hands before starting work.

Best burger and fries around that Ive personally had. Its competitor is out of province in the mountains thats pretty much sums up how good it is and consistently. Fries remind me of the old school places that had that awesome crunch and flakyness but not overdone.

Appetizers were Ok but pricey, the $19 dollar main course was a joke! what was supposed to be a chicken pot pie was nothing more then a half a can of cream of chicken soup baked in a frying pan with a pie crust on top. Soooo disappointed,

Great service and great food. Perfect for a quick date night with or without the kids.

Service was great, very friendly and attentive. Food was alright. I had the garlic oregano chicken pizza which the flavour was a bit all over the place but it was drenched in olive oil so the crust was no longer holding together and ended up being a mess. Portions were small for the kale salad.

We went for the first time on my sons recommendation and we will definitely be back. The food tasted like much of it is made in house and the flavors were delightful.

March 11, 2022 The parents joined us for some great food. As always the service was great and the food was tasty. We really enjoyed our visit. The dessert was awesome. Good food and service that is friendly and attentive. I have been here a few times and enjoyed it each time. The ambiance is great. The restaurant is clean and well lit. I had the flatbread breakfast pizza and it was tasty and served hot. All of us loved the food and enjoyed our meal selections. The washroom was clean. We will definitely come back again and I recommend this restaurant.

Two words- breakfast pizza. Do yourself a favor and go for brunch here and order that. Its SO good! The restaurant is lovely (inside the greenhouse) and very relaxing. They have excellent coffees and their food is so flavorful and taste like a lot of effort and love went into creating them.

Were always greeted like family by Carla and she makes sure we enjoy a great experience. Food is also great!!!! Thanks Carla!!!!

Pizza had no sauce!, they charged 9 dollars a kids drink! Very expensive!!! left hungry! Not impressed! Dessert good

Best steak sandwich I have had in a long time. Great with one of their tasty fresh salad and a glass of red wine!

Always enjoy there food and service.

We visited there on Sat morning and ordered the breakfast pizza and fish taco. The food is not the best but above average with the price. Very relaxing atmosphere and we will come back to try the dinner. I got a cup of hot water and the cup had coffee stain. And I asked them to give me another cup. I wish they can improve the cleaning procedure.

What a treat. We loved the Grilled Romaine salad (a game changer). We had the Italiano, Bacon Mushroom , Prosciutto pizzas were all done to perfection. Quality and Taste, nothing spared here. The service is amazing. Kudos to Avery for making our experience as exceptional as it gets. The Crème Brûlée is out of this world. Amazing Experience!!!

Awesome gluten free pizza. Beautiful surroundings of the gardens. Cant wait to return. Thank You Branches!

Excellent food and awesome service from Abi!! Very personable and everything you want in a server. Will be back!

Excellent menu! Delicious food, our familys go to spot for lunch or dinner. Great variety of options for those with dietary restrictions. Friendly wait staff and hosts.

This restaurant is a complete hidden gem, especially thier outdoor patio. The patio overlooks the greenhouse open air plant area. You feel like you are out in the country or somewhere like the BC interior. I have been there for Sunday brunch and during the week, the food is excellent. After you dine, you can go for a walk in the adjacent manicured gardens with a beautiful pond. I lived in Edmonton and Sherwood Park most of my life and never knew this place existed!

Fish tacos were good. Pizza was somewhat underwhelming, I would avoid the Mayan Bowl, it was salty and not worth the price. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

This place was excellent. The steak sandwich I had with their peppercorn sauce was excellent. You can see and taste the quality of their ingredients that are grown in the gardens here. A wonderful experience.

AMAZING TOP QUALITY FOOD AND PREPARED PROPERLY! Im just going to leave this right here.

Lovely place!!!!

The food is delicious. Staff are friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is pleasant and relaxing anytime of the year. There s a good variety on the menu and the desserts are delicious . They are busy on weekends so call ahead in case you need to make reservations.

Had lunch here recently and was satisfied with our choices. My wife had scallops and fish tacos and wasnt sharing. They were that good. I had the Mayan bowl and would have it again in a second. Further, it was served Im a motor which kept the food warm for most of my eating time. We sat on their patio, which is rare for us. But the mid-August weather was perfect and the wasps few and far between.

Beautiful patio. Really nice place to sit outside and eat (although they played loud country music). Unfortunately for the beautiful setting, the food just wasnt good. I had buffalo cauliflower bites that were so hard they were inedible. We ordered the lobster grill cheese, which was also inedible. The fries were amazing, though. I would come back here just to sit on the patio and eat fries, but I dont recommend anything else.

Coffee is wonderful and the food is fantastic. Hopefully when its time to refresh their menu theyll add a vegan dish (other than salad).

Excellent food and service.

Loved the ambience. Order a chai latte, a margherita pizza and an italian pizza. The menu is pretty small. The only reason I am giving one less star is because they advertise this place as veggie friendly but there is literally only one veggie option on the main menu. They also have paninis, wish they had some veggie options for panini as well as for tacos. Staff members were friendly and welcoming.

The music was good but too loud to carry out a comfortable conversation. The food was lovely and I love the location of the restaurant. Nice to have options of snacks and meals.

Lovely spot to have lunch with a friend. Food was good too!

Love this place, friendly service, good food, and nice atmosphere. Well be back.

Always enjoy Branches. Tried the beef stew tonight which is a new menu item. It was delicious.

Currently sitting at Branches waiting to be served AT ALL. It s been 15 MINUTES. No tip today

Very Good Food, Fast Paced, Eat and Run. It was Date Night. there were 6 of us, all had very tasty well-prepared meals. The servers were very good. It was noisy, hard to have a conversation, the tables and unupholstered chairs not comfortable, a notice on each menu asked guests to limit their stay to 1.5hrs. We liked the place will not likely return.

Not really set-up for larger groups of people. It took a while to get a table for 10 about an hour. Food was very good.

The girls from our office had a birthday luncheon here today and usually the service and wait times are pretty good. May have been an off day, but because there were 5 of us, they said the wait time is much longer, when really all we needed was a chair added the end of the table, which was what eventually happened. As we had to get back to the office, we didnt have the luxury of over an hour wait. Our server, Larissa, was also mediocre at best. We had to track her down for everything, when people that came in after us were served, etc. Our food came at all different times, and the excuse was it was due to the soup being out. I know this restaurant is always busy, but I noticed the servers standing talking amongst themselves a fair bit. We were never asked how everything was, was there anything else we needed at the end, etc. Just the standard stuff. I normally tip 20 to 25% and only tipped 10% and I told her politely why and was still met with a very nonchalant, oh well, attitude. We arrived at 11:30 and checked in at the restaurant and by the time we got our table, ate and paid the bill, it was 2:00 pm.

I absolutely love branches. My Fiancé and I go here every week, usually on Thursday, and we always get incredible service! Two servers in particular really shine, and go above and beyond; Larissa and Breanne. Larissa serves us very often, and every time we see her she is very personable, bright and bubbly, and makes our experience fun, personal and memorable. Breanne also is very precise, and has started to recognize our order, and brings it out before we have even spoken with her! Both of these fantastic girls have gotten to know my fiancé and I on a personal level, and we have so much to chat about, from family, to work, to life events, everything! We love speaking to them, and the service they give is absolutely spectacular! We are always excited to get one of them as our server, and look forward to our trip to branches all week! Thank you again to Larissa and Breanne :) Another thing I want to mention, is that my fiancé is celiac, and she can t have any cross contamination whatsoever, and Larissa, Breanne, all the other servers, and the kitchen all do an amazing job reassuring us that the food will be prepared in a safe way. Plus, All their gluten free options are amazing, and maybe even better than the versions with gluten! Dietary restrictions: My Fiancé is celiac, and she and I always feel perfectly safe about her eating here, bith because of the fantastic servers, and how careful the kitchen is.

Just had a terrible experience at this restaurant. Waiting half an hour for a table was expected. But we were seated and waited 15 mins for drinks, placed our simple food order and waited over 45 mins before someone realized they had never put in our order . No one came back to check with us after they realized our food was not being made. We left after we could not get the attention of any staff after being in the restaurant for over an hour. Will never return

Been to branches on numerous occasions. The food is really good but the pizzas are the best on menu, you have to try them. Always go to the restaurant before browsing the greenhouse as the wait times can be lengthy depending on time and day of week (Friday evenings and weekends mostly), that way you get your buzzer while you go check out the amazing greenhouse. I wish they had more beer and spirits to choose from, their selection is very limited.

Great service. Good food. We did Friday date night for $60

Good environment and finishings, but pizzas were not very good. As I waited for my turn to order I took a call. At that moment the server addressed a senior behind me to ask what they would like. I was not asked if I was ready to order or if I would mind. I waited further for my turn again. I made an order for pizzas. When I brought them back to my party they pointed out there was an after taste, and soon after eating a slice they felt gassy and not very good. I think the restaurant presents well, and probably prides itself as an experience based space. Have a drink here, but be careful what you ask for that s made to order.

Fresh salad and delicious pizza; very courteous and caring waitresses, amazing service. The patio is gorgeous, enjoyed the overall experience with my folks.

Great food, beautiful venue. Recommend the scallops on polenta.

The food is horrible in this restaurant. Dont waste your food and money. They have nothing. No burgers, no steaks, salads full of pepper.

Wow. Nothing short of amazing. Service, food, quality and cleanliness. Absolutely amazing. Thank you to all of your staff for a great experience with a special shout out to Thalia our server for her great attitude and the flawless service she provided! You will definitely see us again. (Our order:) 1. the banana bread french toast- so good if you are having a bit of a sweet tooth in the morning. Even if youre not you need to try this dish! 2. The breakfast flatbread- you can taste how fresh everything is in this meal, perfect morning meal. We tried it with a bit of their caesar dressing which gave it a nice kick. Thank you for everything everyone. We are now i think registered as regulars... we have tried everything on the menu and as it is a changing menu they have different options based on time of year. The staff never stop being amazing and the food is always right there with them. This is one place that I will ALWAYS come for great food and people. Thank you all for continuing to be our delicious escape!

Always my favorite place to visit. First time for dinner. It was our first date night since pandemic and since my Chemotherapy. We love the Goat Cheese Pucks. And their pizza are awesome too. Too bad during therapy I cannot have alcoholic, otherwise will finish off perfect with one of their drink on the Summer drinks menu.

Awesome experience!!!!!

I love branches. Food is great, service is great.

Our favorite stop on the way to Edmonton.

Very beautiful place to dine at. I live in Edmonton, but it is worth the drive on Anthony Henday, about 25 min. My friends & I can enjoy a good lunch & chat with beautiful plants around us.

Refreshing atmosphere, excellent staff, fine food. We did brunch and thoroughly enjoyed it. They are close enough to Hwy 16 that if you are passing by the north end of Sherwood Park when its time to eat its worth popping in.

Food was very good

Beautiful place, steak sandwich was excellent

The scallops and polenta appetizer is fabulous. I love this restaurant.

Have a very nice indoor and outdoor patio. Nice to be immersed in all the greenery for dinner. Food was awesome. Have great specials. Looking forward to trying out there indoor patio in the winter. Highly recommend.

Was very disappointed. Saw on the website that they closed at 8pm. Got there at 7:30 only to be told that the kitchen was closed, sorry. Wow, you would think that in these tough economic times that turning away customers is ill advised. Anyone who has run a restaurant for any length of time knows how important it is to hold service right until closing. The garden centre must be booming.

Always so enjoyable. Nice atmosphere,great food and service. Have been here many times. I only wished they roasted the chickpeas in their salad with beets and goat cheese. Such a good salad adding grilled chicken. Really yummy desserts and drinks.

Had a small bachelorette dinner here the night before the wedding. The staff was fantastic, the food was amazing, and the perfect atmosphere for a chill girls night before the big day. Thank you!

Lovely patio and date night specials !! Cheese bread is 11/10!

I love Branches on their indoor patio during the Christmas season! Their food and drinks are wonderful, staff are very friendly. The only comment I have is I wish their inside was more like their patio. Inside feels more like a cafeteria than a restaurant. Dim the lights, decorate like the store and then it would be a perfect experience overall!

This place was so good! Did not expect this quality of food attached to the Greenland Garden Centre. The atmosphere was fun, and the staff were energetic and friendly. I got the Lobster and Crab grilled cheese with potato crisps. So good. Definitely coming back!

Burger was amazing. Ordered take out but no napkins put in the bag.

The food was good but the service was bad. Our waitress was pleasant enough but never offered a refill on water or coffee even though she was topping up other in our area. We were in the corner so it was hard to get her attention. We waited almost 20 minutes for her to notice we had finished eating and quite a few minutes went by with out our bill arriving, finally I went to the counter to get it myself.

Excellent restaurant with great food.

Always lovely! Great place to grab a bite with friends.

They completely changed their menu recently, and removed all my usual go to orders, which is unfortunate. Ill be back when the mussels are.

Really nice food and ambiance but ooh the wait times! Early Feb, should be slow but the place was packed with a half hour wait at 1 pm. Victim of their own success. Go if you want to combine it with shopping the greenhouse and store, go somewhere else if time is a concern.

Great food everytime Ive been at branches, but this time with a twist. Everytime Ive gone in the past its too eat delicious food from the seasonal menu. This time I was trying to eat healthy haha. They had plenty of options for people that live rich and decadent food, but also for people who are being health conscious. I feel full and ate a great Mediterranean wrap. Will come back again maybe for the date night special.

1. As a vegetarian I was disappointed with this place, which claims to be vegetarian friendly. The only dish with vegetarian protein was a rice bowl with vegetables and 1 egg. This is hardly enough protein for a proper meal. None of the other dishes contained any amount of dietary protein worth mentioning. 2. The restaurant was very cold during the winter and no heaters were installed to prevent drafts from entering through the cracks between the outside doors. 3. The staff were very friendly :)

Exceptional food and service was great! Cinnamon buns and bread pudding.. Wow

We love going to Branches. Great service and good food and good coffee too. The ambiance of being in the greenhouse makes it fun too.

Went for lunch las week and it was super delicious! The menu was a great size and had a really good mix of dishes. All done really well, the food was so good and I loved the little twist they would do for each dish to make it different. The service was amazing too, our server was super friendly and the perfect amount of attentive. She really made our lunch even better. Highly recommend.

Went for brunch on Sunday. Place was spotless. Great food and service. Will be back.

Great service. Interesting menu.

We went to Branches last mothers day (reminiscing made me realize I never wrote my review) and it was amazing. All 4 of us loved our food and the atmosphere and I cant wait to go back some time!

Waitress was absolutely miserable... .I get it... its difficult serving right now...many different protocols in place. I tipped because thats who I am, bit I didnt want to. There are many other people who would love to have a job..so please try and enjoy yours. If its too much for you, please leave. You made me feel awkward and guilty to ask for anything. It was more like we were a real bother. I wont let her deter me from coming back, but if she is assigned to be my server, I will leave or ask for someone else. Too bad....I was so looking forward to being back at one of my favorite brunch locations.

Such a pleasant surprise from one of my favorite garden centers, the food is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere on the patio on a nice sunny day is vacation worthy

Amazing food and patio.

Love this place! Unique quaint little place!

A great place to stop for a bite and some coffee after plant shopping. Had the Lobster Grilled Cheese and Chicken Panini.

I had the alberta beef burgers, its was just ok, nothing special, my wife had the mushroom ricotta that was good.

Great experience! Delicious food and wonderful servers.

I would definitely recommend for a plant shop and fancier meal date We were there for a late lunch on a Monday and had to wait 20 min for a table, though we didnt mind as they give you a buzzer so you can peruse the greenhouse while you wait. FYI you need to buy bottled water from them for $2 for 500 ml if you want water to drink during your meal. I assume thats a covid thing

Great food, good service too. A beautiful place to have lunch!

Very nice and clean restaurant with strict COVID19 protocols in place. Food was delicious and our server Brooklyn was just wonderful, who went out of her way to accommodate us. Thank you Branches, we will for sure come back. Also a suggestion, Creme brulee was delicious but with a little garnish of mint would make it so much more appeasing and tasty!

Love Branches Date Night special! Starting out with a salad each, then sharing Buffalo Cauliflower Bites, sharing a warm and gooey Ricotta Mushroom pizza, finishing up with our pick of desserts... We decided on the thick, rich and creamy Creme Brulee... it was the best way to end a stressful week, as we watched the sun slowly set in the west.

Absolute trash. I felt so disrespected by the staff while management was just overall rude. The environment was not for me. Never going there again. Wouldnt even bother wasting my time writing up a complaint with them. Its best if you just dont deal with them.

The wait was long and not worth it. We ordered off of the brunch menu. We were told they are just serving bottled water because of Covid, which would have been fine had we not been charged $2 for a bottle of nestle water that probably cost 50 cents. I ordered the breakfast bowl and found the potatoes a bit too greasy for me and I didn t enjoy my dish in general. The waitress didn t come to check in on us once we got our food and it was the hostess who actually noticed that I wasn t eating my meal and offered to box it up for me. When I told her it s okay, I didn t like it she immediately said she d take it off our bill. Even though neither of us enjoyed our meal it was nice that she took mine off without me having to ask.

My wife and I have experienced Branches on several occasions and found the food, service and ambiance to be a most enjoyable experience. We highly recommend this as a site for date night.

The food was incredible. We had to sit outside though and that atmosphere was not so great. Its in the greenhouse and it would have been okay but there was shopping carts corralled by our table and I felt like we were in a mall food court. Go and eat there for sure, get the ravioli. If you have to sit outside then wait, if a seat wont be available inside then leave.

Fast and courteous service, great food.

Branches is hands down the best in atmosphere, customer service, menu and coffee. Love the manager Carla there!

Went there last night, 1st time, called ahead and they said theyre open until 9, got there at 710, was told they dont take reservations and the wait was 45min 5o an hour. Unfortunately their liquor license ends at 8pm, but we were seated right at 8 and had no issues ordering a few drinks. Yes they only have alcohol (fine w us) or bottled water, and coffee items because of covid. The staff was very attentive and pleasant, and the food was fantastic. We literally were about to leave when we were seated and we were glad we waited. Once at the table and the drinks and food came we immediately forgot about the crazy prices and pretentious shopping experience which, although was nice to look at, is not something Im supper interested in in terms of waiting to sit down. Some Xmas trees are 2000.00 lol. Anyways the food and service was fantastic, had the duck, a burger and several other things, see the pics, Id ask the owner to add an old fashion to the drink menu for that fifth star, or at least a whisky option.

We were planning on going to one of our favourite places for supper today, Branches. It had been awhile and we were excited. We got there and our hearts sunk. The floor was extremely dirty, covered in food and garbage. As we were being seated, we peeked into the kitchen and the floors were not any better. The flies were everywhere. We just decided to have a drink and an appetizer. As we waited, we saw food sitting on the counter under the lights for over 8 minutes, yes we timed it. I can t tell you how many flies landed on the food before someone picked it up. One waitress working her butt off while the others just wandered around trying to look busy. We drank quickly while swatting flies. What happened, did the original owners sell? They would never have let it get this bad. So disappointed!

Fantastic date night

Great service and food $$$$

Love this place. Quite a gem tucked away from the hustle of the city. Authentic dining experience. Love their pizza!!!!Shopping for plants at the end of dinner is also exciting. Great date night idea on Fridays

Always a lovely experience to eat there! The bread pudding was delicious!!

Wonderful venue with great food and service.!!

The food is amazing! The staff is really nice ! And the views while you eat are special

Fantastic food!!

Have been there for lunch many times and will go again. Yesterday we had the panini which was great but the french onion soup was a fail. Cheese was minuscule... none on top.. a little shredded cheese sprinkled inside. Bay leaves were not removed before serving and there were barely any onions. Maybe 4 or 5 croutons. Dang I should have taken a picture.

The kitchen staff were great with accommodating a dairy allergy and even suggested adding garlic aioli in place of hollandaise sauce for a delicious breakfast.

Great tasting food

LOVE the food here. Awesome environment too, especially around Christmas season. The Thursday date night deal is awesome. And love when they have live music!

The atmosphere is fantastic. The food average. A lot of comefort options on the menue. the meat in my lettuce wraps was quite dry, but with enough sauce became fairly tastey. The craft beer available was nice. All that being said, Id go back.

Great atmosphere, great service, great food. I will be coming back.

The food is amazing, a varied menu and well priced. Lots to look at after at Greenlands.

Food was good, service was also great.

I fully enjoyed my lunch here. I had no idea there was a restaurant located inside. I cant wait to go back and try their brunch. Beautiful atmosphere and very good service.
