Operating from the same small building for 55 years, you\u2019ll get a kick out of the old (and still used) drive-in stalls. There is seating inside too. Red booths and stools are the perfect match for hand-painted murals of Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe and other 50s pop culture icons. The biggest star of the show, however, is the food. Jack\u2019s is famous for their soft serve ice-cream, burgers, dipped cones and creamy milkshakes. Located just west of the city in Spruce Grove, this gem is well worth the short drive.

From the entrance, you may be thinking this is just a quick place to grab a bite, but once inside your nostrils flood with the scent of \u201cmom\u2019s\u201d cooking. With a coveted 4.5\/5 rating and the #8 spot in Trip Advisor\u2019s Edmonton restaurant reviews, it\u2019s no wonder this diner earned a Certificate of Excellence. Breakfast is served until 3:30 pm, but if you missed out on the country skillet and homemade hash browns, you\u2019ll have plenty of room for a hearty steak sandwich, soup with cheese toast or spicy chicken on a bun. Wrap up your meal with a slice of their famous pie.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Table Top Caf\u00e9:<\/strong> Turning the notion of a cool place to hang out and eat on its head, entrepreneur Brian Flowers said no to upscale small-space dining, and yes to board games. Table Top Caf\u00e9 is truly unique. You pay $10 and that gets you a seat at one of the tables and all the board game time you can handle. (And for every item purchased from the kitchen or store your fee is reduced by $1.) The hundreds of games range from popular favourites like Monopoly and Risk, to obscure games you\u2019ve never heard of. Using a tab-style system for food and drink, you can order a fresh panini or baked goods, heaping bowls of chips and dip, veggies with hummus, candy bowls, a variety of coffee and tea and even licensed beverages. It&#8217;s consistently packed with people of all ages enjoying this twist on caf\u00e9 dining.
