Stumbled upon this restuarant/bar while walking around Calgary downtown. This place is by far one of the most happening bar I've visited. Crowd was fun, food was delicious, Music was top notch. Being and out of town guest, was not dissapponted. I would definately visit again whenever I'm back in calgary.
Had a great experience for a meetup, they were able to handle and accommodate a large party with their team. I had the hot wings and their pepperoni sticks. The hot wings were perfectly seasoned and meaty enough to enjoy. However, hot damn those pepperoni sticks were unbelievable. Can't wait to go again
We came to the rooftop for food and drinks, Delaney was our server, she was the best! Great food/drinks and the service was impeccable. I will be coming here again!
OMG I HAD THE best experience there! The music the staff, the food, the drinks everything was absolutely amazing!
The best part about this place.... NO cover charge!!!! Never ate here, so I cant say much about their food; great atmosphere, busy, great dance music. Huge dance floor. A really good choice if you want to go out dancing. Note!!!! It's a younger crowd. A fun place if you don't mind being around them!!!
Bailey is a gem and such a great person. National was fun!
