1. Alpha Comics
As a 90's Goth kid... hell yeah, I have comic books. I have a good grip of Jhonen Vasquez, Serena Valentino, James O' Barr, Rick Spears, Robert Tritthardt, etc.,... and also a pile of Marvel and DC to round things out and make me appear more…More »
2. Sammys
30/30
I bookmarked this place not long after Wendy reviewed it; then I remembered: I've eaten here before! Several times. It's the Falafel place near the Spy Store :).
"Oh, I don't know, Tiffany. That place looks scary. It's also possibly a front." My…More »
3. Spirits of Douglasdale
Calgary, AB T2Z 1K4
(403) 720-0266
29/30
A liquor store within walking distance could bode ill, but Spirits of Douglasdale is awesome. Every wine their clerks have suggested to me have been pleasantly drinkable, even when I discovered that one of the clerks is straight-edge and…More »
4. Broken City Social Club
Broken City recently updated their menu again, and while I'm sad that the vegan poutine is off the menu for good (especially since I never seemed to be able to try it! :'(), they DO have a delicious Vegan Burger now! No dry, microwaved to the point…More »

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet. I like it best on a non-weekend night, preferably… Read more »
5. Loose Moose Theatre Company
This place is an amazing hidden gem, tucked away behind Crossroads Market. I used to pass by this place every day on my commute home from downtown, and regret not stopping in and checking out a show sooner. $15 was all I had to plunk down for an…More »
6. Hop In Brew Pub
So the first time I went to the Hop, the building across the street didn't exist yet. It was just an empty lot. While I nursed a beer upstairs, a homeless guy in the empty lot decided to nurse... himself.
But that's not the Hop in Brew's fault (or IS…More »
7. 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 »
8. 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 »
9. 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 »
10. Rice For King
This place is a regular stop for me. I first became one of their patrons at their other restaurant, Lemon Tree, in Lynwood. When I told Sonny, the owner that I don't eat meat, he assured me that he would make sure that everything that was prepared…More »
11. Kingsland Farmers Market
Went here for the first time today! All the vendors are so friendly, lots of parking and I had accordion music to accompany my lunch :). Wish I hadn't gotten here so hungry though, because I totally missed out on what looked like awesome Indonesian…More »
12. Pita Grill
18/30
Pita Grill, how much do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
Your staff: Awesome, personable and hilarious as hell. And yes, I do wish I knew what the guy on the stereo was singing so earnestly about. The guy behind the counter assured me that…More »

13. Higher Ground
Dear Dan,
Thank you for the delicious vegan noms you and your staff provide every Wednesday night. Last night, I was finally able to try them! I follow Higher Ground on twitter and salivate every week when the Global Vegetarian Night menu gets posted.…More »

Went here after the GPS had me going in circles while trying to find a friend's house (wound up… Read more »
14. Vue Café
I love eating here when I have no qualms about dropping $25 on lunch just for me. That might not seem like a lot to some, but when I was 13; $25 a week was my allowance. That was the full amount if I didn't get docked for things like not washing…More »
15. Falafel King
The best handmade falafel in Calgary. You have to come here starving, or the portions can be overwhelming. But the service is great, and if you stop in often enough, the owner refers to you as his best friend :) Their tabouleh salad and dolmades are…More »
16. Tandoori Palace
I was determined not to like this place. The location is the former location of my favorite Indian restaurant, Delhi Darbar. I was an extremely sad panda when Delhi Darbar moved to the other side of the city, and I could no longer go there 1-3 times…More »
17. Wild Rose Brewery
I once stumbled in to this place on a frigid winter evening in Aught Seven, looking for directions to a Roller Derby tournament that was taking place nearby. They gave me the wrong directions, but I made a mental note to come back and try their brew…More »
18. La Mejor Comida Chilena
Stopped at this little Chilean restaurant in Crossroads' food court while shopping today. Some dude completing his order told me, "try their food, it's really good." Sold. We asked about the soup they had on display, and the lady behind the counter…More »
19. The Twisted Element
Went here with Wendytron™ for their Sunday night drag show. Wendy got purse checked, but I didn't because my purse is tiny. Hey, I could be hiding a Deringer in there, but now you'll never know, haha! While we waited for the show to start, there was…More »
20. Pho Anh Huyen Noodle House
Delicious food, good vegetarian selection, and if you go there often enough, they remember you and smile when you walk in :). I never had to remind anyone there that I needed peanut and not fish sauce. During certain times of the day, you can watch a…More »
21. The Coup
Been here a few times, used to work nearby when it first opened and went there as soon as I got the chance. First time I went, I had the el taco. The waitress was really sweet, and the food was good, so I didn't mind too much that I was served warm…More »
22. Thai Tai
Dear Thai Tai,
I understand that your staff probably don't want to deal with having to clean up a customer bathroom - especially since you're situated on 17 Ave. I worked a few blocks down for a year and I only let pregnant women and children use our…More »

Love Thai Tai, but I'm glad I live kind of far away or I'd be a big fat fatty :D

23. Buddha's Veggie Restaurant
Okay. This place has finally redeemed themselves, in my eyes. True, they may not be solely vegan anymore, but seeing as how I'm the sole vegan in my group of friends or when I'm with my family 99.9% of the time, I'm glad we have a place where we can…More »

24. Eat! Eat!
Woo, I finally get to cross this place off my bookmarks after bookmarking it wayyyyy back in January :D.
Quiet chatty lunch with Wendytron™; our Inglewood passports lured as in with the promise of free yam chips. I had their hemp burger, and from the…More »
25. Delhi Darbar
This is one of the best Indian restaurants in Calgary, but lately I've been worried for them, as every time I go; there doesn't seem to be very many customers. Their veg offerings are amazeballs, especially their yellow daal. Even better, the owner…More »

Woo, Calgary Farmers Market! You helped me earn a Domestic Badge :). How awesome is it that Sarah Louise and I can come here and try out so many things? Vegan Empanadas! Vegan Curry! Flavored Nuts! Dippy Dips! Fresh fruit samples everywhere I turn!
