“Very kind and considerate staff! We ordered something they didn't have in stock (parogies) and they made us an equivalent meal on the spot with what they had and within the same price (meat and bread platter)! It was delicious and paired so well with our flights of feature beer!“
“Happy Belly Kombucha has truly changed the kombucha game! As someone who had stayed away from kombucha after trying it at a different brewery, my experience with Happy Belly was truly refreshing. They have incredible owners who are passionate about the product, a wide variety of amazing flavours, delicious kombucha, and an incredible sense of community. Thank you Happy Belly Kombucha! I’ll definitely be back :)“
“Great service and food at reasonable prices, with awesome craft beer. Free parking nearby. We had a blast playing music bingo, and they have many fun events through the month (art classes, etc.).Parking: Parking on 11th Ave, and on 13th StWheelchair accessibility: Easy access to main doors.“
“Beer, dogs, bring your own pizza, kids drawing with sidewalk chalk on the floor. What more could you want?! Calgary’s outer boroughs suffer for unique watering holes with real character, Cold Garden is always worth the trip into the centre.“
“I organized an 8 person meetup at Tailgunners on a Tuesday night for their trivia Tuesdays event. Firstly, their taproom is beautiful. They have large doors that roll up in good weather. Unfortunately the patio was covered in snow but I’d love to return in the summer.I didn’t eat but most of my friends ordered pizza. The pepperoni pizza was loaded with pepperoni and was reported to be “greasy but good”.They had local cider in cans. I really liked the Sour of Love sour peach.Will definitely return!“
“Cabin is a favourite, but our recent visit pushed me over the edge to write a review. We frequent with our two kiddos under 3, and this last time noticed a thoughtfully well-stocked bathroom with a change table, wipes, and diapers of varied sizes. In a city where change tables aren’t even a guarantee— this was a welcoming surprise.“
“Absolutely love this place. The beers are delicious. The bush league pilsner is my favorite. Erica treats us like gold. I work near by and its always a cozy spot to support a local gem. They are very accommodating my only complaint is they aren't open on Monday lol. Keep up the amazing work.“
“The taproom is super comfortable and located favorably in a very trendy part of town. Ample parking and completely accessible, this unpretentious place has an amazing secret!The standard 8 pours cover all the bases, from light and playful to full-flavored, the 8 seasonal offerings are always worth a try as well, with distinct, different, well-crafted adventures.Bar service only, there's no wait-staff, aside from the barkeep.There's a "food truck" that's permanent at the tap house, A1 Burrito... Birria, Pollo and Carnitas all prepared so well you're going to forget about your beer! Chips and guacamole only after 9pm.Inclusive place, nongendered facilities, doggos welcome, patio seating.“
“Awesome place! I was there on a Friday and had a small beer and a slice of pepperoni pizza for $9! I have been to Dandy since I used to Can their beer, 5 years ago, and even then their food and beer menu was OUT OF THIS WORLD! It's a small place, you have seating inside and outside, with fire pits in the winter. They do small batch brewing, and their beer menu has its core line and new brews that are varied and almost experimental at times!! One thing about Dandy, you know that scene in Ratatouille? Where the critic takes a bit of the food and goes back to his childhood. I have had that happen to me at least FOUR times either eating or drinking something for the first time. In total that has happened to me probably 8 times since I moved to Calgary, the other times have all been single experiences at different restaurants. The food menu is a bit pricey, as well as the beer, but you are not paying the jacked up price of another restaurant that is carrying a Dandy product. Skip the middle man and head down, they also have interesting shows or music going on!“
“Rarely do I go to a brewery and really like all the beers they have on tap. The beers were exactly as described and appropriate for the style of beer. My favourite was the IPA. The Hefeweizen has a banana smell and tasting notes which is interesting. The server was really nice and offered us pretzels and brownie to complement the porter. Leaving in a better mood.“
“What do you get when you see a dream fulfilled, risks taken and rewards realized? Tool Shed Brewery and BBQ. Having the brass to open a restaurant at the height of Covid or going to the mat with the government to help legitamize microbreweries, Graham is a force of nature.His success has been hard earned with sweat, tears and the kind of good luck only courage and passion bring.What also comes with courage and passion is unsurpassed quality.I came there for ribs and not only did I have the best ribs of my life -a sentiment echoed by a server with her comment 'I wish I could have them for the first time again'- but the flat hat stout surpassed Guiness or any other I've ever had.Dreams come true, hard work prevails and in the mean time, there's some great beer and BBQ for everyone. Highly recommend.“
“We absolutely love “Electric Reaper” We were introduced to it at an event at our community center (which I believe was sponsored by New Level at least in some part) and we loved it ever since. Its great when local companies support family friendly events, especially when their product is top notch! We look forward to visiting the tap room!“
“Just stopped in to grab the Italian Hero Sandwich with the warm potato salad and it was incredible. Sub was crispy on the out side warm and tasty with right spice. The warm potato salad had an incredible spicy sauce with it. Absolutely delicious. Will definitely order from here again. Service was very pleasant as well.“
“Was at Bitter Sisters for the first time yesterday (Sat) and was seated upstairs.The food, beer and service was amazing! Would definitely return!Have to give huge kudos to our server (didn't get her name) for putting up with that large group with all the kids running around, screaming and jumping on the furniture and the parents were allowing it!. She should not have had to deal with that!“
“Awesome experience in this little hidden gem. Had a fantastic Citra Blonde and took home a couple of 4 packs for later.Cozy, clean, and friendly. Super nice to walk into a local spot and have a pint while chatting up a genuine person and watching some baseball!Can't wait to go back!“
“This is hands down one of my favorite breweries. I wish there was more space, as the entire place, bit up and down were full. But did manage to find a seat and order some delicious hazy beers. They do hazys so well. The Pizza was absolutely delicious. I wish I could remember which 2 we tried, but like I said, the beer was tasty and my memory escapes me.Would recommend“
“Came here on Saturday in the afternoon and the service was amazing! Quick and friendly even though there was only one server, the food was absolutely delicious, and the beer recommendations were spot on. I will definitely be coming again and recommending this place to everyone. Thank you Alyssa!“
“Banded peak hosted a private Christmas event recently for the company I work for. The staff did an excellent job, food was great, and was accommodating for our requests. Would definitely be back and would recommend checking them out for a private function. Thank you to Banded Peak for the great night!“
“One of the best breweries in Calgary. Coincidentally also a place that has the best staff! Even though they recently won brewery of the year, it still somehow feels underrated. Is that possible?Great, diverse beer selection. Service is bar style, but the staff really pay attention and make sure you enjoy your selections. Highly recommend.“
“My Fiance and I stopped in, because we like checking new breweries. Lindsay was attentive, explaining her favourites, and letting us try. My Fiance loved the cherry wit. I fell in love with the NE IPA the service was amazing, beer was amazing! Good job guys“
“This place needs a bit of work but it has potential ! Check it out, there is definitely love and the music is second to none. They serve ZERO ISSUE beers (local) and also brew their own Kombucha (high test) , who doesn't enjoy having cold Kombucha brew or a Nemesis tall boy !“
“Great beer and great atmosphere. I am involved in two businesses on 10 Ave, so we often go to Two House for company events and business meetings. We will certainly keep coming to Two House - we love it, but I will miss Acme pizza. New menu is decent, but Acme pizza was absolutely excellent. Keep moving it forward Two House. We will continue to see you, but will need to fill our Acme cravings.“
“Wow finally grew a pare and decided to make a real beer NEIPA IPA. I first got into craft beers years ago by drinking big rock then slowly drifted away now I’m back thanks to Nebula 6.4. Get a good 7.2 going then your in the big leagues. I’m thinking a black cherry with a touch of raspberry to dazzle it up. call it full send V10 IPA“
“One of the better breweries in the city. Good core beers, always trying something new with their rotationals. Very good food menu too with something for everyone. The patio is huge and is a great spot both in the summer and winter (they have lots of heaters). The events they host, including trivia are always pulled off spectacularly“
“Comic book beers. The #1 reason I was initially attracted to this brewery was that they have THE BEST labels on their cans. So much so that it has now come to a point where I wait impatiently to go buy the next released issue. "It's a bird, it's a plane!.. No, no, it's Superman, having a beer"."Where's Mr. Wayne, Alfred?". "My apologies Sir, but he's currently at the pub"Not to diminish the flavours they have, their product is excellent. I have my likes and dislikes, but it's all part of the excitement of the next issue! Galactus' desire to eat planets is only part of the plan, he likes to chase it with a beer.“
“Happy hour food and drinks is relatively decent. Service started great with a free sampler, but fell off the cliff when we said we were waiting for happy hour that was 10 minutes away- clearly she didn’t want to serve us after that comment. Frozen Burnt Martini was good but appears to be a bartender malfunction that served me with a half glass full- I pointed it out to the server and he said it was normal, even though the previous order was at least 3/4 full. Bizarre but sure: enjoy your tip. Pizza was good, and I recommend the wings plain (salt and pepper) as it’s pretty crunchy. Korean spicy bbq sauce was decent.“
“What a terrific location to come to. I stopped by today for a visit. The service was incredible and the bartender on duty, Harrison, was stellar. He was polite, knowledgeable, and gave excellent service. The servers here are all fantastic and not afraid to say hello, even if you aren’t in there section. I highly recommend everyone coming to this location.“
“I don't even have the words for how amazing this hidden gem is. From the moment we walked in to us leaving, it just kept getting better! Richard is the absolute best! The food... OHH MY GOD! Their meat is to die for! Canada's BIGGEST indoor smoker. The drinks! Those will be my one & only from now on! Free sweater! The only downside was the blue haired waitress needs to learn manners! There was multiple times she treated us with a rude attitude. We won't let 1 person wreck this review tho! We LOVE Richard and whoever makes those drinks!! We will definitely be back and have already bragged to all our friends about you!“
“I have been a regular for a few years at HLB, and the staff/space is so lovely. The staff is great, they are kind and excellent at what they do.I have seen them handle difficult customers/situations with grace and kindness. And the ginger beer is amazing! Would recommend anyone to stop in, have a pint or two and stay for the incredible staff.“

“My sons hockey team went to Brewsters after our game and had such a wonderful experience. We have been to many team events after games at places like Boston Pizza, Brewhouse to name a few and have always been so disappointed. Our whole team was so impressed with our experience at Brewsters, we will definitely be back.I am a bar manager at a local sports bar and I was extremely impressed by our server Stevie, she was on point, she did an awesome job. Also want to point out her manager and all the other staff who were running food. Great team work!! Our team always had full drinks even if it was just a refill pop. It definitely was our best experience when we went out with our team after a game. Will definitely be back and will recommend to all of our teams. Food was absolutely delicious.Well done Team!!!“

“Come to brewsters on Tuesday night for a great wing deal. They have tons of great flavours. I tried the Peri Peri, the Cajun, Mexican Hot Chili and the Beer BBQ. They were cooked well and the service was great. For dessert I grabbed a mud pie which was a large portion for $10, I was happy. The service was also great. I would come back anytime.“
“Two Pillars has become our neighborhood sanctuary. It's where my friends and I gravitate to unwind and savor their ever-changing array of delightful brews. The staff? Pure magic. Their warmth and expertise elevate every visit.Recently, I held a private event there for a surprise party, and Boaz, in particular, was an absolute gem. He effortlessly orchestrated every detail, from crafting a fantastic menu to ensuring every guest felt at home.If you're debating whether to drop by, let me save you the trouble—don't waste another moment contemplating. Two Pillars is where memories are made and good times are guaranteed!“
