Edmonton’s best falafel joints
Falafel balls are a traditional Middle Eastern dish made of ground chickpeas or fava beans, or sometimes both. They’re deep fried to give it that crispy crunch. They’re sometimes served as a meal with salad, rice and other sides or in a pita with tahini sauce for a sandwich.
Drift (Food Truck)
Edmonton AB T5M 2G3A food truck serving up globally-inspired sandwiches prepared by a husband-and-wife team. You’ll love the homemade falafel sandwich, which is not on the regular menu but occasionally pops up as the herbivore special sandwich of the week.
Earls Kitchen + Bar
8629 112 Street Northwest, Edmonton AB T6G 1K8For a twist on the traditional falafel sandwich, Earls serves up a falafel burger patty with vine-ripened tomato, citrus Greek yogurt, garlic aioli, feta and avocado.
Best Donair
15043 Stony Plain Rd NW, Edmonton AB T5P 4W1Watch them prepare the falafel on the spot. This isn’t a frozen, mass-produced falafel. You’ll love it. In a joint known (obviously) for their donairs, it’s nice to know they can make other great food!
Co Co Di Restaurant
11454 Jasper Ave NW, Edmonton AB T5K 0M1Another Lebanese meets Mediterranean restaurant on Jasper Avenue. The falafels are divine, as is the beef shawarma. Try the shisha on the patio in the summer.
Al Salam Bakery Deli & Restaurant
3-10141 34 Ave NW, Edmonton AB T6E 6J8They also add their own twist on the traditional dish. They start with the ground chickpeas and mix in ground up fava beans. The dish is served as a platter or a pita wrap served with fattouch salad.
High Voltage Food & Coffee Bar
10387 63 Ave NW, Edmonton AB T6H 1P2The popular Middle-Eastern dish prepared with a twist: a tzatziki and jerk sauce twist, that is. It’s so unique but the jerk sauce gives it that extra je ne sais quoi that will make you come back over and over again.
