We always feel like we are coming home when we get the chance to eat at Cilantro and Chive Lacombe. Whether we get the pleasure of the patio or the privacy of their beautiful booths... the food is always perfection - unique, flavourful, clearly made with love. I have never experienced a business that is so deeply invested in and about their community. It's a must stop when we are in the area - even if we only have room for the dessert.

I love going to Cilantro and Chive when I'm in Lacombe (a very pretty town with some great historical buildings, lots of murals, some small, but pretty parks and a fishing spot, not to mention a great brewery). It's super cute, rotating art work for sale, fantastic selection of beers, many local (this is great area for beer if you have a safe driver and some time to go from town to town, pretty drives too). There are other drinks, including some good non- alcoholic choices but beer, and some types of miles, is their thing (as opposed to wine or other drinks). There is also a lovely patio out front with umbrellas. The menu rotates a bit and I appreciate the variety and the good old main stays -- on occasion they don't quite hit the mark on some new dishes, but they are still good and solid portion sizes. I find lots of their food has a spice to it, so be sure to check in with the server if you're not a slightly spicy person ("white person spicy". Service has always been solid, but it can get pretty busy. Dill- pickle poutine, duck wings and creme brulee had always been so good here.

We had a 10am Reso for brunch on a Saturday for 12 people. Our food took a while and came out sporadically. Our server was amazing and very apologetic, as the kitchen had ran into some issues that day. The owner paid all of our bills and gave each family a 100 GC, there were 4 families. They clearly have really high standards for their service, and we were all very astounded with the outcome. Thank you again for the gracious compensation, we are all looking forward to another family brunch there.

We love this restaurant! The vibe, the service, the food, the cocktails and craft beer... it’s all so good! Their new spring/summer menu items are awesome - I had the new chicken & brie sandwich and it was delicious. We’ll be back!

Ate here last weekend with my husband for a late lunch . I must say the vibe of this restaurant is so good that you just wanna stay and hangout longer. The food is so good and worth every penny you spent on this place. The service is ok.

This place is considerably smaller than their location in Red Deer, but the atmosphere, service and food is no less amazing! The staff is super friendly. The food is amazing, and their craft beer selection is unparalleled. Definitely the place to stop in Lacombe for lunch, dinner, or just to hang out!
