In this video I present my favorite restaurants in the city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in a variety of categories. Saskatoon has a phenomenal food scene and it definitely punches above its weight given its relatively small size. I have spent a lot of time in Saskatchewan over the years and I always look forward to eating in Saskatoon.
My favorite restaurants in a variety of topics are as follows:
Best coffee quality overall - Museo Coffee Roasters
Best cafe/coffee shop - City Perks Coffeehouse
Best breakfast - Park Cafe
Best lunch - Odd Couple
Best upscale dinner - Little Grouse on the Prairie
Best bakery - The Night Oven Bakery
Best bar/pub - Amigos Cantina
Best pizza - Thirteen Pies Pizza + Bar
Best desserts - Calories Restaurant
Most Saskatoon restaurant - Baba's Homestyle Perogies
These are just my current favorites and many people will disagree. However, I vouch for all of these places and in my opinion these are some of the best places to eat in the city.
If you got some value out of this one please consider liking and subscribing to my channel - I am new to KZfaq/video production and this really helps me out. I upload about one new video per week.
Thanks for watching!

Saskatoon punches above its weight for food and coffee. It's *much* better than Regina, even when factoring in the population difference. Little Grouse is unreal, good choice for top fine dining. Amigo's is a great dive too. I'd strongly recommend trying La Bamba for an authentic Mexican place.

It definitely does - I find Saskatoon in general just has a disproportionate amount of culture given its relative size, I visit at least once a year. Cool I'll check out that other Mexican place - thanks for watching and commenting!

Griffin Takeaway is right across from City Perks! They have an excellent soup deal where you can get a soup and a (really large) scone for 8 dollars. It's all made in house of course. There's no seating, though-hence the name.

We forgot to tell you about the St. Louis Ghost Train in a tiny town by PA, would love to see a ghost story video by you about that! :) Sask also has a great series of books called Ghost Stories of Saskatchewan. A childhood fave of mine! Hope you are having a great long weekend.

I actually loitered at City Perks so long last time that I'm pretty sure they won't let me back in next time lol. You know what, I'm going to do a video on the St. Louis light later this summer. I'm going to go up there at some point in August I think and I'm really looking forward to that one. I hope the light appears for us when we're there! I have a feeling it will be a popular video, and I want to feature the town of St. Louis itself a little bit. Thanks for watching and I appreciate the support - all the best to you guys!

I see a lot of pros moving to a bigger city such as Edmonton but also staying in Saskatoon. It's a tough matchup!
