What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?
The 2012-09-19 episode of You Gotta Eat Here! (season 1, episode 21), as summarized by TVmaze, had host John Catucci eating homemade ice cream in High River, Alberta. Evelyn's Memory Lane Cafe is a lunch-focused diner at 118 4th Avenue SW in High River. Its website, read on 2026-10-19, lists soups, salads, sandwiches, pies and catering, and describes its ice cream as made in-house, with a separate ice cream flavour menu and buckets available by phone order. The same page listed hours of 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday, with Sundays and public holidays closed and a note that the cafe may close early in unfavourable weather.
It offered online ordering for pickup or delivery through DoorDash, linked a menu dated March 2025, and mentioned summer hours beginning June 17, 2027. The cafe's own website was the only source read that carried current hours or ordering details.
