See All Lists
1. Milk Tiger Lounge
30/30
Okay. How much do I love the gutted Hardy Boy books as menus? I never went here when it was A Bar Named Sue, but the contemporary, if not overtly hipster-ish changes - i.e., the aforementioned menus, sleek design, bartender with ironic facial…More »
2. Dollarama
29/30
Save for the "Everything for 99¢ Store" in the Bay Area, this is the most organized and vastly stocked dollar store I have ever been to. AND some of the stuff even survives the trip home, instead of falling apart once you get it out of the tons…More »
3. Beat Niq Jazz & Social Club
28/30
I went here for my birthday one year; dressed in a red satin cocktail dress and metal heeled stilettos (that one of my dude friends told me made me sound like a clippety cloppety billy goat when I walked, hahahaha) and felt like a sophisticated…More »
4. Casbah Restaurant
27/30
The shareef may not like it, but I do. Who wouldn't like sitting on fancy silk couches surrounded by golden tapestries, while a waiter comes and washes your hands with rosewater? He'll tell you stories of Morocco, you'll sip on mint tea with a…More »
5. Local 510
26/30
I was a fan of this place before I stepped in, based on their name alone. See, I grew up in the 510 :). Haystack, represent! This was where I tried Steam Whistle for the first time and this is where I've been with friends to have deep…More »
6. Loriz Pilipino Bakery & Convenience Store
Calgary, AB T2H 2V2
(403) 278-8660
Categories:

24/30
PANDESAAAAAAAAAAL. As a vegan, many Filipino eatables are out of reach for me. Becoming a vegetarian at the age of 9; my Mom was completely stumped as to what to make for me for dinner because everything requires some type of meat stock as a…More »
7. ULTA
23/30
Cleansing all the bad reviews out of my system. I have no issues with the store part of this business. The storefront sells a mix of drugstore brand makeup, highstreet brands and the random (Jabot cosmetics? Did I step in to a wormhole and land…More »
8. Pizza 73
22/30
During a party, my brother ordered a couple of pizzas and wings from this place. Two pizzas and wings typically costs about $35, so it's convenient munchie patrol food.
The pizza arrives in under 45 minutes and my brother digs in immediately.…More »
9. Coco Karamel
21/30
Walking through Kingsland Farmers Market while looking for a present, I stumbled across Coco Karamel and the sweet lady that mans the Coco Karamel stand. Alfajores! I had never heard of them before, even when a friend of mine tried to set me up…More »
10. CRAFT Beer Market, Restaurant & Bar

Categories:

20/30
Solid service, noise level was at a comfortable conversation level this Sunday evening and a decent veggie burger. Fries that accompanied the burger were tasty too. I also really appreciated that the waitress didn't pressure us in to getting up…More »
11. Stitch It Clothing Alterations
19/30
If I want to buy pants anywhere, I have to be resigned to the fact that wherever I go, pants are going to be 6" too long. Enter Stitch It. For $15, they can hem a pair of jeans for me and keep the original hem (referred to there as a European…More »
12. Christopher's Salon 07 & GHQ
18/30
I can't believe I forgot to review this place! After an awful experience at ULTA (will write that review later), I went over with my BFF to Christopher's Salon 07, based on her recommendation (AKA, "screw this place. Let's go to the salon across…More »
13. Good Taste of Britain
17/30
When I used to live across the street from Market Mall, Good Taste of Britain was where I would go to get my fix for Black Currant flavored goods, while getting "Southgate 96" by the Business stuck in my head. Ribena soda, Traveler's Sweets,…More »
14. Mucho Burrito
16/30
One day, Calgary will open up a Rubio's or a Chipotle and then I'll be happy. Until then, we have Mucho Burrito. Mucho Burrito is actually on the surprisingly delicious end of the long line of very sad "Mexican" restaurants we have here.…More »
15. Eau Claire Wine Market
15/30
Helped some friends pick out a bottle of celebratory Pinot Noir here. It's so much easier to be choosy about which wine you get when you can't drink it later! Well laid out, friendly staff, and lots of wine to look at while imagining yourself to…More »
16. Sobeys Douglas Square
14/30
This Sobey's is open until 11 pm! Which means they're still open when I get a sudden craving for Banana Cheerios at 10pm. Friendly staff, decent selection (though I really wish that they carried more types of tofu blocks apart from "extra firm"…More »
17. Starbucks
13/30
One time I went here, and visited the bathroom while I waited for my drink to be prepared. On the way there, a giant old man came out of one of the bathrooms and asked me if I had seen his rat. He had a plastic one on his shoulder. Before I…More »
18. Kinjo Sushi
12/30
This place is always packed! I went here last night to celebrate two birthdays, and probably ate two birthdays worth of sushi. Everything here is well made and reasonably priced.
We waited a little while for a booth and watched in anticipation…More »
19. Medicentres
11/30
I'm not writing this review based on the wait times (anywhere from 10 minutes to 10 hours, depending on the day!) or the sad looking interior that looks like it hasn't been updated since 1982.
But I came down with a mystery illness this past…More »
20. Sephora
10/30
What can I say about Sephora? They give me a birthday present every year (which is more than I can say for some of my friends... hmph!) and I rarely walk out of this store empty handed. I feel like this is the store people upgrade to once they…More »
21. Chatters
9/30
OMG! A positive salon review on Yelp! They almost don't exist! They're the Snuffleupagus of Yelp Reviews.
I made an appointment for this place at 6 pm today, and almost missed it, thanks to traffic. I called ahead to let them know I might be…More »
22. T & T Supermarket
8/30
What can I say about T&T? Except the fact that every time I walk in here, I get AC/DC stuck in my head. It smells funny; that unrelenting fishy smell that permeates all Asian groceries no matter if I'm in Canada at T&T, or visiting their American…More »
23. Good Earth Cafes
7/30
This is the Good Earth Café that made me first fall in love with Chai, back when I used to work on 17th Ave.
Don't misunderstand, I have had Chai way before that first encounter, and disliked it immensely. The overly syrupy, chalky concoction that…More »

I accompanied a friend here while she was getting her makeup done for Halloween (she was dressed as Snow White). While I sat and watched her get her face on, there were two other ladies getting similar treatments and a guy getting special FX…More »

5/30
I have the worst time finding jeans. WORST. I've got hips for days that don't go away no matter how much yoga or 30 Day Shred I do. My waist to ass ratio is over a foot. My torso is longer than my legs. Ergo, I'm doomed to forever getting jeans…More »
26. Rexall
4/30
I love this Rexall. The staff here is always so sweet and friendly - from the lady pharmacist that always remembers me (and gives me reminder calls to tell me when to pick up my prescriptions), the people that work the PO counter (non-surly PO…More »
27. Tropicana Rock'n'Roll Bar
3/30
The first time I went here, it cost me over $75 because the cab driver took me to a similarly named place in Forest Lawn. Then he informed me that he was glad to be taking me to a place in Marda Loop because picking up customers in Forest Lawn is…More »
28. Union Station Taphouse
2/30
Stopped by here on a Saturday afternoon with a couple of ladies. I forgot that this was where we stopped at and for some reason thought we had stopped at Original Joe's, so minus 1 star for being unmemorable. Cocktails here are very reasonably…More »
29. CMYE: Yelp's Fall Supper
Yelp 30 Day Challenge 1 of 30

Yay! Food parties are the best parties. I love how everyone was eyeing each other in the beginning, trying to gauge who was going to be the first to walk over to the table and fill up a plate. Finally, I asked Reg why…More »
