The 18 Best Restaurants in Calgary, Canada
"A post shared by Hayden Block Smoke & Whiskey (@haydenblockyyc) on May 11, 2019 at 2:03pm PDT. This pop-up patio is one of the best in Calgary because of its near-river location in the heart of the walkable and shop-able Kensington District. It also has a back end patio with a roof that opens up during the spring and summer, doubling its patio space!"
"If someone said I could only eat ONE brunch item for the rest of my life, this would be it. Sure, everything else on their menu is fantastic, the coffee is banging, but that french toast is basically what it would look like if breakfast and lunch had a wet dream about each other."
"Madison 1212 in Inglewood, not only has primo pre-lunch, post-breakfast food, and an adorable patio, they also have the cheapest mimosa’s in the city. This spring, check out the tasty inner-city spot, breathe in some fresh air and sip from flutes of champagne and juice for only $1.50. Where: 1212 9th Avenue SE, CalgaryInstagram: @Madisons1212"
"The nachos are great for kids because they are so shareable. They don’t have a special kids menu but you don’t really need one. They do however, have highchairs and super delicious food."
"6 locations in Calgary including Shawnessy (41 Shawville Blvd SE), Southport (10606 Southport Road SW), Market Mall (3625 Shaganappi Trail NW), 8001 11 St SE, 888 7 Ave SW, and 29 Hopewell Way NE. As a kid, Moxie’s was always our favourite restaurant to go to as a family, and as a parent, it’s somewhere I love taking my own kids. The Kids Menu has items that are so tasty, I sneak bites of my son’s food when he isn’t looking (seriously, try the cheeseburger and tell me I’m wrong)."
"Universe Restaurant is a diner serving some of the best Canadian dishes and pizza all day, six days a week. While it doesn’t focus on breakfasts, it still offers morning classics like Quebec poutines, Benedicts, and French toasts. Unlike other restaurants offering breakfasts, this one accepts reservation requests and can even handle up to 50 people per reservation."
"Obviously, we could have made an entire list of pizza places. Calgary has great pie joints all over the city, and everyone seems to have their go-to. Pizza Mercato uses fresh ingredients straight from Italy."
"The Lynx Ridge Golf Club is home to a patio located in a quiet foothill paradise complete with stunning rocky mountain views. The Lookout Kitchen & Bar provides in-house and patio dining options, but you’ll want to catch these views with their new summer menu. Their large menu draws inspiration from all around the world with dishes like Calamari, Loaded Nachos, a Cubano sandwich, or Pierogies."
"Located in beautiful red Victorian heritage home in historic Inglewood, Rouge has earned its reputation as one of the city’s finest dining spots. The impeccable menu is seasonal and French-inspired and often features ingredients from Rouge’s expansive backyard garden. Complete your meal with a special bottle from the restaurant’s extensive wine cellar."
"Rouge Restaurant is a historical eatery known for its gourmet meals and classical and authentic atmosphere. The foundation of their food begins with the best ingredients. Thus, they partner with local food growers and utilize their onsite garden and their homegrown produce."
"Cakeify Studio simplifies the cake decorating process by providing various items costumers might need from the in-house baked cake, in-house made buttercream icing, fondant, tools, and embellishments to decorate a personalized cake. A collaborative of local cake artists will bring their unique styles to the table working with customers to develop the customers’ cake vision and also apply their skills to the custom cake orders. In addition to being a nut-free aware facility, they can host different types of events such as birthday parties, date night, baby showers, walk-ins, and team building."
"A post shared by CAKEify Studio (@cakeifystudio_yyc) on Feb 6, 2019 at 11:51am PST. Okay, you might not go to sit down and eat at CAKEify Studio. But if you need an epic cake that looks like something out of a movie set or wedding, then this is a go-to spot."
"This bakery blends Japanese, Korean, and European influences. It is best known for soft, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth Danish pastries, such as its Italian-styled tiramisu croissant, or strawberry and cream cheese or sweet potato Danishes. Other hits are its Korean-styled chestnut bread, French brioche, Japanese mochi, and a take on the famous Asian sweet red bean bun."
"If you’re after Instagram-worthy desserts, we recommend visiting WOW Bakery. WOW Bakery serves up world renowned desserts, with a Korean-Japanese flair. Specializing in decadent cakes and shaved ice dessert bingsu, WOW Bakery brings high-quality ingredients, exceptional flavour and beautiful artistry together under one roof."
