class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The Sugarbowl&#8217;s famous cinnamon bun arrives with a knife stabbed straight into it, and that gesture tells you everything: this Garneau institution has zero interest in being precious. What it does have is one of the deepest beer programs in the city \u2014 a rotating universe of craft bottles and Belgian taps \u2014 poured in a room that has been the University of Alberta district&#8217;s living room for generations.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Story\"><\/span>The Story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Open since 1943, the Sugarbowl has shape-shifted with every era: burger joint in the forties and fifties, coffee house through the sixties and seventies, then the bistro-pub hybrid that stuck. Television came calling \u2014 the room featured in the first season of You Gotta Eat Here! \u2014 but fame changed nothing structural: students still argue theses over pints where their professors did the same.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Order\"><\/span>What to Order<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The cinnamon buns are baked fresh daily in limited numbers, and when they&#8217;re gone, they&#8217;re gone \u2014 arrive early or accept your fate. Beyond the legend: proper brunch on weekends, burgers with pub conviction, and a beer list that rewards curiosity \u2014 ask what&#8217;s pouring from Belgium and follow the staff&#8217;s lead. Coffee remains serious here too; the sixties never fully left.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Space\"><\/span>The Space<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Warm, wooden and worn-in the way only eighty years can manage \u2014 a bohemian clutter of conversation, laptops before noon and pint glasses after. In summer the doors open toward leafy Garneau streets and the patio becomes prime real estate.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Its_For\"><\/span>Who It&#8217;s For<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Beer explorers, grad students and their supervisors, brunch loyalists, and anyone who wants a bar with more character than concept.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Good_to_Know\"><\/span>Good to Know<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Do the cinnamon buns really sell out?<\/strong> Regularly \u2014 mornings are safest; weekends go fastest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I book a table?<\/strong> It&#8217;s largely a walk-in room; brunch peak means a short, worthwhile wait.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How big is the beer list?<\/strong> Vast \u2014 well over a hundred craft and Belgian options at any given time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is it just a bar?<\/strong> No \u2014 it runs from morning coffee through brunch to late pints.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there a patio?<\/strong> Yes, a seasonal one that fills the moment the sun commits.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Opening_hours\"><\/span>Opening hours<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Day<\/th>\n<th>Hours<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Monday<\/td>\n<td>09:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tuesday<\/td>\n<td>09:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Wednesday<\/td>\n<td>09:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Thursday<\/td>\n<td>09:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Friday<\/td>\n<td>09:00\u201300:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Saturday<\/td>\n<td>09:00\u201300:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday<\/td>\n<td>09:00\u201323:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<section id=\"entity-gallery\" class=\"padrino-entity-gallery\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Photos\"><\/span>Photos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.edmonton-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2026\/06\/sugarbowl-edmonton-1.jpg\" alt=\"Sugarbowl\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.edmonton-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2026\/06\/sugarbowl-edmonton-2.jpg\" alt=\"Sugarbowl\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.edmonton-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2026\/06\/sugarbowl-edmonton-3.jpg\" alt=\"Sugarbowl\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.edmonton-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2026\/06\/sugarbowl-edmonton-4.jpg\" alt=\"Sugarbowl\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.edmonton-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2026\/06\/sugarbowl-edmonton-5.jpg\" alt=\"Sugarbowl\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.edmonton-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2026\/06\/sugarbowl-edmonton-6.jpg\" alt=\"Sugarbowl\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<details>\n<summary>Show 2 more photos<\/summary>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.edmonton-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2026\/06\/sugarbowl-edmonton-8.jpg\" alt=\"Sugarbowl\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.edmonton-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2026\/06\/sugarbowl-edmonton-9.jpg\" alt=\"Sugarbowl\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/details>\n<\/section>\n<div id=\"comments\" class=\"comments-area wp-block-group\">\n<h2 class=\"comments-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Visitor_reviews\"><\/span>Visitor reviews<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol class=\"comment-list\">\n<li id=\"comment-padrino-0\" class=\"comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1\">\n<article id=\"div-comment-padrino-0\" class=\"comment-body\">\n<footer class=\"comment-meta\">\n<div class=\"comment-author vcard\">\n<b class=\"fn\"><span>Andreea Gabriela<\/span><\/b>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"comment-metadata\">\n11 May 2026<br \/>\n \u00b7 <span>\u2605 10.0\/10<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<\/footer>\n<div class=\"comment-content\">\n<p>We always eat a cinnamon bun every time we come here, because it&#039;s incredibly tasty.
