Pub 1905
Updated - 11/6/2009
While I'm still a fan of Pub 1905, and I'm still giving the place a 4-star rating, I have to say that the quality of certain menu items has gone downhill a bit, recently, and the menu is out-of-date, despite being recently rewritten. For example, "The Dog That Shagged Me" says it comes with back bacon on the menu, but the last two times I've ordered it, it came with regular bacon.
It also seems like, at least every second visit, they are out of something that someone in my party wants to order.
Despite the recent hiccups, I still think that Pub 1905 if one of the best pubs in Edmonton. They have a good menu and inexpensive beer. But they need to fix the problems in the kitchen in order to maintain the positive word-of-mouth that they've been gaining over the past few years.

Pub 1905 just may be my new favourite pub in Edmonton. While the decor leaves a bit to be desired, I… Read more »

The food at pub 1905 is nothing special. It is actually pretty mediocre but it is exactly what you would expect from the prices, so no surprises there.
My meal was too salty and I thought that maybe it was just mine but my friend's noticed theirs had too much salt also. The service wasn't that great either, everyone had attitude and it was just uncomfortable.
I was told they had the best burgers here but I was disappointed and won't be going back.

Do not set foot in this place! I'd leave zero stars if I could.....
We planned on a stop here for a large group for a special occasion. They do not return calls for reservations. They do not accommodate large groups and do not allow for questioning when they become over-the-top angry for anything but complete submission.
The service is aggressive, the management is ignorant and obtuse not to mention the food is mediocre anyway. You can find cheap beer elsewhere.
Just go to Shanks or Whyte. This place is a sorry excuse for a pub.

Earlier this year, a boy wanted to take me on a hot-dog date for my birthday. Yeah, that's what I thought too, but what the hell, it's a free meal.
Pub 1905 was the spot he had in mind and this Jasper Ave sports bar really surprised me. Hot dogs truly are their specialty; I was expecting some kind of bacterial street-meat type deal but the menu was rife with creative, tasty-sounding options with fun and silly names, all available as veggie dogs if you wanted 'em. I did, and wound up with a gigantic veggie dog topped with (if I remember correctly) barbecue sauce, onions, tomatoes, and melted cheese alongside a green salad. It fed me twice that day (it was so good I took half to go) and I was impressed enough to tell my dad, who plans to keep the hot-dog date tradition alive with his own girlfriend, a noted hot-dog connoisseur, one of these days.

Place is incredibly cozy and is a regular after school/work hangout for me and a group of friends for a Friday wing-off. I don't care too much for anything else on the menu..the pizza is alright..I was told the hot dogs were phenomenal and was a bit disappointed when I got mine. Dry ribs were mainly fried to the bone when I had them on their "rib night". Regardless of this, I still return every Friday with a napkin in my shirt, a pint of Heineken, and a stomach read to digest 40 hot wings.
