We always have a great time at trivia and the food is great! The gluten free options are very good, especially the pizza.

Kilkenny is a great neighborhood pub. It is also a great venue to hosting large gatherings. We recently hosted a 40th reunion with close to 90 people. There is a great private area you can book and the staff are amazing at working with you to host a great event. Food choices, AV equipment, drink specials if you want. If you are hosting something and want a fun, relaxed place to do it this is a great place. If we are still around for the 50th we'll be coming back here for sure.

Kilkenny is a stand alone pub in Calgary, rather than a chain restaurant. With this perspective in mind, one would think that their food would be consistently good pub food. However, what we ate yesterday was absolutely terrible. I paid $26 for a single piece halibut fish and chips dish only to receive something that tasted like it was fried in weeks old oil. The batter tasted nothing like beer and was bitter, almost ruining the fish inside. It also seemed to be over fried. Same for the chips, emaciated fries that were brown from frying too long in bad oil. When it came to my wife's steak we were supposed to receive a ten ounce New York strip cooked to medium rare. We got a rare piece of meat that was too over charred on the outside. Almost every bite of the steak tasted burnt. To be honest, I can cook a better tasting larger steak in a frying pan at home, so why should we eat at a place like Kilkenny? The vegetable and mashed potato sides were okay at best. The point is, when one goes out to eat, it is with the expectation that the food will be better than what one can cook at home. Oh, and to put an exclamation point on this issue, I was asked if I wanted gravy with the chips. I paid $2 extra for a small bowl of gravy and it was terrible. Thankfully I made it clear the food was subpar and the server provided a dessert as a comp. However, it is questionable whether we will go back to Kilkenny again.

Monday night in the neighbourhood pub! Outside was hopping with hockey games on TV and the backside was quiet enough for comfortable conversation - just what we needed. The hot tip? Get there before 6 PM for the tasty and value packed happy hour appies! The servers are cheerful, attentive and respectful.
Food and service was excellent with the exception of the $17 potato. Otherwise, love the spot!

Been here a few times to eat, the food is enjoyable, tasty and well made. The portions are lacking for my preference especially on the breakfast menu. Over $50 for 2 boxtie meals a very weak coffee and a orange juice for me and my company and we both left hungry. It was very tasty but just not enough, a good side of hash browns would go a long way with that meal. Atmosphere is good, most the staff are friendly and attentive. Prices and portions are really the only complaints.
