About Clementine
What is Clementine?
An elegant bar in the Oliver neighbourhood of Edmonton, inspired by nature and early 20th century French Art Nouveau. We opened our doors in 2016 and have continuously been apart of trying to elevate food and drink in Edmonton. We have a lot left to learn and a lot left to contribute.
What is on your cocktail menu?
Our cocktails are styled according to the foundations of classical bartending, and honour the long history of our craft. Each cocktail is named and fashioned to invoke particular feelings and memories, and to get you thinking and talking about what you’re tasting/sensing. We use our craft to faithfully carry on the tradition of thoughtful imbibing, and are always looking for new ingredients, stories and flavours to bring to our guests.
We are also particularly obessesed with long forgotten/overlooked spirits and cocktails (i.e., Absinthe, Sherry, the Adonis cocktail, etc) and have an extensive backbar for you to taste from.
What is on your wine list?
The wine on our list is deeply connected to the natural environment of the vineyards they call home. We have curated a wine list of small, family run vineyards that use minimal intervention to allow the land to speak for itself. Wine is a living, changing thing, and our aim is to respect the diversity of the many terroirs that can be found within it and to help tell their story through serving them.
And yes, all of the wines on our list are “natural wines”, we just choose to avoid that loaded phrase because of all the other problematic connonations it brings. First and foremost, we serve wines of place that we find delicious.
What do you serve for food?
Our menu at Clementine is based around our bar, with an eye always towards sharing and snacking as you imbibe. We do not offer formal “dinner” food, though you can certainly make a meal out of one or several of our dishes. Our menu is often changing, so please check back often.
What do I need to know before I visit?
Clementine is a space that is welcoming to all, and we are excited to host you here. Please, come as you are. We do not accept reservations and cannot hold tables. If you would like to book us out for an event or inquire about hiring us for bartending services, please contact us at hello@barclementine.ca
How did Clementine come about?
Clementine was conceived and built by the Volstead Act, a craft cocktail group comprised of Andrew Borley, Evan Watson, and Jordan Clemens. The goal was always to bring the kind of bar to Edmonton (where we’re from) that we’ve so enjoyed in other great cities. We knew the only way to really do that was to get our hands dirty, so we did the grand majority of the design and construction ourselves. To that end, the experience we offer today would not have been possible without the local artistries of Rob Willms (Metalwork), Beyond Wood (Staining), River City Tile (Tilework), Konanz & Co. (Sign Painting & Gilding), Shane Hauser (Photography) and Land Faculty (Interior Decor, Visual Identity & Graphic Design).
