The font used by the address bar just changed and it's bugging me, wondering if anyone might know how to reset it. I tried creating a new profile and it's the same. My other copies of Chrome (Canary / normal) have the "normal" font.

  • I've seen this myself after some Chrome update; I think it's an (accidental) version difference but I don't know the official answer.

According to the explanation in this issue, this is an intended change landed in Dev (and now Canary) channel.

To change it back:

  1. Open chrome://flags.
  2. Disable Instant Extended API.
  3. Restart Chrome. Font in address bar is reverted back to system font again.
