Calgary Five Stars
See All Lists
1. Bert & Jack's Automotive Service
Can I give a million stars? Seriously, please?
Little backstory: my darling old car had a problem last night where one turn signal wouldn't work. I had to resort back to using hand signals, like I was on a bike. Also, my car was leaking wiper fluid.…More »
2. skoah
I first went to Skoah back in Vancouver, spending my hard-earned summer job paycheck when I was 16. (And making $6 an hour, I sure spent it fast.)
I've been to three different Skoah locations now, including this one, and I love how consistently…More »
3. Missing Link Extraordinary Sausage
Kaeleigh pretty much said it all, but let me reiterate how great these sausages are: they're great. I can be pretty picky about my meat but these are not at all greasy, and they're HUGE.
I want to try every flavour. I really love Louisiana Beer, and…More »
4. Phil & Sebastian Coffee Roasters
I died a little inside when I found out that there was Phil & Sebastian at Chinook. I don't have to wait until the weekend for amazing coffee?! HALLELUJAH!
I have tried a few of their drinks but I always come back to the latte. It's smoky and tastes…More »
5. Mezza Mediterranean Grill
My roommate is obsessed with this place so when I was downtown visiting her on her lunch break, she was super excited to take me here.
The first thing I noticed was how busy it was!! This is a popular joint. All of the tables seemed to be four-seaters…More »
6. Farm Restaurant
I am absolutely, positively, happily in love with Farm. All I want to do is eat their beet salad and sablefish all day, every day.
Seriously, the servers are friendly and quick and never leave you with an empty glass. The decor is cute (although the…More »
7. Surahi Restaurant
Kaeleigh and I were looking for somewhere to go for dinner tonight, and feeling uninspired, browsed Yelp and looked through a few coupon books, trying to find somewhere tasty. We eventually settled on Sea. Fish and Chips, but sadly they're closed…More »
8. Ranchman's Cookhouse & Dancehall
Ranchman's is pretty much my idea of a perfect bar. There are always good food and drink specials, lots of big screen TVs for watching sports, and the live bands are usually good. I've never been during the day, but in the evenings it fills up pretty…More »
9. deVille Luxury Coffee & Pastries
Nutella Latte.
Yep, I knew it - that's all I had to say to get you out of your chair and on your wait to deVille.
But just in case you need more convincing...it's a beautiful little coffee shop that's up some stairs, so it was a perfect place to warm…More »
10. The Holy Grill
Everyone who works here is super friendly and nice. They are always smiling!
The food is absolutely delicious. Their paninis are to die for - my favourite is a grilled cheese one I had at Stampede, but you really can't go wrong. They make excellent…More »
11. Fat City Franks
Absolutely the best hot dogs I've ever had! The flavour combinations are unique, but still appetizing. They're pretty much all delicious - my favourites are the Coney Island, the Ukranian and the Canadian. The monthly specials are delicious, too.
…More »
12. Calgary Zoo Botanical Garden & Prehistoric Park
I absolutely LOVE this zoo. I have only been to a few zoos in my lifetime, but the Calgary Zoo is my favourite.
It's not cheap (around $20 I think?), but for double that you can get a year's membership. There are obvious times to avoid going (the…More »
13. Blink Restaurant & Bar
The first thing that happened when I got to Blink was that they had lost our reservation. I'm not sure how, but they did. That was kind of a bummer but the hostesses immediately found us a table so thank goodness for that.
Our server was very…More »
14. Bumpy's Cafe
Once again, how had I never been to Bumpy's before?!
This is a pretty small space tucked away on 8th Avenue. My best friend had been raving about it since forever, so we finally went one morning before work as I had a meeting downtown.
It was pretty…More »
15. Calgary Stampede
I love the Stampede. Possibly because I'm not a native Calgarian, but I do.
My first Stampede was the summer I was 18, and my best friend and I came here for a week to party. It lived up to all my expectations, we had tons of fun, and absolutely loved…More »
16. Scotiabank Saddledome
As a Canucks fan, I really, really want to say I hate the Dome and everything it stands for, but...I can't.
Yes, the beer is expensive and overpriced, but you're at a hockey arena in Canada, so it's time to get over that. Besides, as anyone knows, the…More »
17. Second Cup
This Second Cup is like a hidden gem. Tucked in a little strip mall, and on the same stretch as Starbucks and the Purple Perk, it's usually empty. I overlooked it for months until Starbucks was closed one day.
These baristas are GOOD. Like, really…More »
18. Weigh 2 Go - CLOSED
I LOVE THIS STORE.
They have everything you could possibly need. I go here every time I am baking and always find what I'm looking for. The owners are beyond friendly - they're helpful and always chatty. I recommend this store to everyone I know.
19. Tommy Burger Bar - CLOSED
I had lunch at Tommy Burger and was really impressed. I had the Lonestar burger, and my friend had the Spulombo burger. Both came with fries and were $12.50 each. The burgers are HUGE, and delicious. You can also build your own burger, with a decent…More »
