Huckleberry’s Cafe

I’m so glad we decided to stop in here while out on our inspections!
The place itself is pretty cute —
They are going for a country/​western vibe and doing a pretty good job!
The food is soooo good; I went against the grain and instead of ordering the beef which I’m sure is amazing bc they are boasting a lot of ranch type menu items, I ordered a roasted vegetable quesadilla. It had asparagus, brocolli, red peppers, grated carrots, raisins and Brie and was served w a honey yogurt dipping sauce. It was really surprising how well all the flavours went together!
My friend had the roast beef melt with a side citrus house salad /​she also said her meal was amazing!
I knew there was no way I could leave without trying he huckleberry pie /​it was served w vanilla bean ice cream. I also took home a slice of their whiskey cake — it was amazing but was pricey for how small the piece actually is!
I will now always have a place to go in wetaskiwin!!!

Huckleberry’s is a favorite of our family. We only get to visit a couple times a year but we’re never disappointed.
Tonight was one of those visits and it was great. The staff were wonderful and very accommodating.
They have a great 3 course meal that we like to indulge in as it includes the very delicious dill pickle soup AND a slice of huckleberry pie! It’s everything you want and more!
Huckleberry’s is well worth the drive and we look forward to our next visit!

OMG! My wife and I decided to take a short trip east of Edmonton and poke around Wetaskiwin and Camrose. Lunch in Wetaskiwin at the Huckleberry Café was an experience to be remembered. We visited this popular spot a few years ago after a favourable review in the Edmonton Journal and we were not disappointed on our return visit. We loved the pickle soup (bought a jar to take home); thoroughly enjoyed the locally procured and butchered hot roast beef sandwich c\w rich, made-​from-​scratch mushroom gravy. Service was friendly and not over-​bearing. Lot’s of pride in their local, fresh approach.
My wife and I dine out a lot and can tell you Edmonton has nothing in this restaurant-type\price point that can compare.
We didn’t have enough room for Huckleberry pie so we bought one and enjoyed a slice for dinner that night.

This is our go-​to for family dining in Wetaskiwin.
They have recently undergone a facelift, the tables and seats have all been updated (which is nice, it was dire!)
The food is incredible, and the good ol’ standbys are all readily available. The only thing that I wish was different would be the addition of a kid’s menu that isn’t also the senior’s menu. In a town with a lot of young families, I can see this as only being good news! There are a lot of selections for the kiddo’s to choose from, but some of the choices on that menu are puzzling.

Love this restaurant, one of the bests in town! Delicious food, great atmosphere, the wait can be a little long at times when it’s busy. Other than that it is fantastic, I reccommend it to anyone looking for a nice dinner out.

A cold Sunday is a great excuse for Huckleberry’s house specialty… Dill pickle soup! A mixture of vegetables, ground beef and in a thicker broth, I can see why it’s offered up in jars to purchase for home… I guess you could compare it a bit to a sweet and sour soup but with a thicker broth? Except the flavour isn’t quite as strong… Not to say it isn’t flavourful in its own right.
I had mine as a side with the bayou wrap… Chicken added for an extra $ 4.50. That with my tea came to just over $ 20. And left me satisfyingly full.
Huckleberry’s may not be the fancy pants local food some of us city dwellers are becoming accustomed to, but it certainly is wholesome, locally-​sourced food that you can count on to enjoy!

I have been coming here since i was a kid. The décor hasnt changed a bit and is showing its age. The service is a little slow but the food is good. The chicken strips and fries keep me coming back

Oh where to begin?
First off, the girl who greeted us was a confused disaster. It took her over 5 minutes to figure out where to seat us in an almost empty restaurant.
Once seated and getting a good look around, I noticed the décor didn’t look any different than when they opened over 20 years ago. The stained walls, worn fabric and ripped vinyl on the booth seats confirmed this. Then I started questioning the cleanliness. My knife and spoon were crusty, and the plate in the place setting had chunks of something on it. Ya, ewwwwww. I’m glad I didn’t need to use the restroom!
Then… The menu… It’s as confused as the décor. It’s all over the place in flavours. It has Tex-​Mex, steak, pickle-​soup? Oh we’ll, I guess it tries to suit everyone? I made my choice and placed my order with the waitress, who was friendly and nice, but not very professional.
When I got my food, as the rest of my table, there was no presentation at all, just food slapped onto plates and bowls. The food was tasteless, bland, and seemed like frozen dinners warmed up in the microwave.
It’s really sad to see how far this restaurant has degraded as it was really good back in the past. Restaurant Makeover need a 911 call to help this place out!

Don’t know what happened, but, my previous review from June 2011 got dropped. This place is awesome, apparently if your over 30 years old and not hooked on Big Macs. Sorry, no Teeny-​Boper/​Rock/​Rap crap background music.
The restaurant has a predominately Harvest motif, atmosphere and fare… you are in farm/​ranch country after all, not in NYC or Holywood. The food is diverse and unique, ever have Dill Pickle Soup (the house specialty)? Today we had the Pulled Pork with scratch made Apple Slaw… Hickory smoked with clover honey BBQ sauce, a nice blend of spicy and sweet. All the food we’ve had at this establishment has been unique, different and tastey. Did I mention «Awesome»?
You are welcomed by family not servers who are accommodating and friendly and always make you feel at home. The washrooms are always fresh and clean and greet men with Kleenex and moisturizing cream. I didn’t use it but I haven’t seen many men’s washrooms with these extras out side of the Hilton. I classify this restaurant as Haute Cuisine with Family Restaurant prices… very reasonable. We’re from out of town and drop in whenever we have time.
If you appreciate different flavours than the usual Denny’s or Ricky’s then this is the place for you.

This place was ok, I personally didn’t enjoy the food but my husband thought it was ok. We would never eat there again, but it is a nice spot for a drink or two

This is mom’s favorite place to go to. Now I’m not to sure what style of food they are trying to serve but they try to mix it in with a southern feel with literary names from Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.
They offer burgers, pasta, seafood… no real identity for this restaurant. but the food is good, its not bad, but good. With some of their dishes they try to use items from that time period like a lil pail to carry the bread and skillets for there desserts.
When you finish your meal, maybe catch a movie with the theatre next door.
