Service was a little sluggish on the two occasions visiting, one was during the dinner rush but the other was during a quiet afternoon.
Foodwise, the fries are fantastic! They serve the shoestring fries with their meals, much nicer than steakhouse fries in this humble Brit's opinion.
On the first visit, I ordered a Burger. Give them a miss if you don't like overly juicy burgers that are overpowered by red onions (Blimey, My breath STANK after that!)
Second visit I ordered the Pizza that I've heard a lot about. BIG Improvement, very fresh (albeit greasy), had to take some home as it was a generous serving and let me tell you, that Pizza still tasted blooming marvellous cold.
All in all the wait staff seem somewhat rushed all the time, but the atmosphere and the pizzas make it an adequate experience. -

Overall, I'd have to say that the only way I'd ever come back would strictly be for drinks.
My friend and I were there late on a Sunday night. It was fairly empty, and there were two servers on. The place was absolutely freezing (it hadn't been that warm outside that day). The special for Sundays was a poutine menu, and poutine is a definite love of mine. I was definitely looking forward to it.
Unfortunately, our server forgot the poutine menu, and basically left us to our own devices after we got our food, never coming by to check and see if we needed beverage refills, or inquiring how the food was.
I had gotten a Butter Chicken poutine, and was expecting an amazing mix of curry, chicken, and the traditional aspects of poutine (cheese, gravy, and fries). What I got were four small pieces of chicken that I had to hunt for, and overcooked fries (some of them were burned). The sauce and the cheese was great, however.
Between the level of service received and the quality of food, the only way I'd come back is for drinks, and I'd be sitting at the bar where I could just converse with the bartender about what drink I'd like next. -

Popped in weekday for a pint and snack - it was pretty busy for 9pm on a Thursday night! Wings were excellent and the service was great but the on tap beer selection slightly lacked. Nothing overwhelming or special about the menu - typical pub fare. Lots of TV's for sporting events and they even indulged us and switched on to the Giro D'Italia coverage.

This is one of those reviews where I wish I could give half stars, because my experience was a three star whereas my dining companion's experience was a two.
So, I'll give it 3, based on my meal.
The place was pretty empty late on a Sunday night when we dropped by. We noticed right away that it was COLD inside. They seemed to be running the a/c despite the fact it wasn't very warm outside.
The server was nice enough, but forgot to bring us the special Sunday poutine menu, and all but abandoned us towards the end of the meal when we wanted to pay and leave.
I ordered the greek chicken wrap. The wrap itself was good, but the potato chips tasted a little burnt and were not altogether too tasty.
On the other side of the table, the poutine was a little lackluster, and the "chicken" element of the Butter Chicken was missing (i.e. only 4 small pieces were found). The fries were also a little disappointing, which is one of the most important parts of a poutine.
Since I live so close, I'll likely be back, but Richmond's isn't necessarily a go-to place for me. -

Love Richmonds for groups and games.
The fare is pub style and the portions are massive. All around a great local venue with a Massive room feel.
Best Sports watching venue I have been to in Calgary I would say. -

Great pub!
Accomodating for big groups, and easy to grab a table for a few people. Although it is often busy because it is a very popular place.
Very sports oriented, fills up quickly on game nights for sure, and once I've even been charged cover to get in on a game night- which I'm not a fan of doing when I want to grab a drink or two, no thanks to paying $20 for 2 drinks.
Good quality food, and great people. As n both the crowd it attracts to this venue, and the staff. Very friendly and great service. -

If it's summertime, you're in the southwest, and you wanna toss back a few beers on a patio somewhere, than this is one of the bigger somewhere's to do it.
That's the upside. The downside, I suppose, is that the patio is located in a strip mall parking lot with a view of Richmond Road and Safeway. Less than ideal. However, if you just keep your eyes on the sky, all is well. And the place is big enough that you're almost always assured of getting a table.
Inside the pub they have a couple of pool tables, tons of VLTs, and lots of table and booth seating for people taking advantage of their full service kitchen. On weekends, Richmond's features live local bands, and Saturdays are Ladies Night, with $3 cocktails until 10pm.
So, if Richmond's is in your neck of the woods, you could do worse than this place! -

Richmond Pub should be the first choice for any sports fan to visit for any reason. Whether you want to play some pool, the VLT's, or arcade games, or you're just looking to watch the most recent game, Richmond Pub is a great place to go. Packed with locals and other sports enthusiasts, this place has something to offer everyone.
They've always got wicked deals on food and drinks every night of the week. Monday nights you can get $6 mini jugs of domestic draft and mini burgers for only $1. Tuesday offers Calgary's best wing night with over 15 flavours to choose from and $5.50 pints of Keith's - my favourite. Each Friday is a different beef night, so it varies from week to week. It just depends on whatever the chef wants to cook... but it's always beefy! Right now they offer $11.99 jugs of Canadian during all the Stamp's games. How can you go wrong with that?
I don't really care about watching sports games, since I'm not a huge enthusiast, but I do enjoy watching other people enjoy the game. This place really comes alive during game nights, whether it's football, hockey, or UFC. People holler and hoot at the TV's and it's always funny to watch people's reaction to the outcome.
This place is just all around enjoyable. The staff are great, and so are the customers, and the prices of drinks won't leave you dry. Get it? Leave you dry? -

This is a pretty good bar for a neighbourhood place. The house band is always good for a laugh.
