Yesterday, I came here after Banff sushi was too packed and the bar next to it was too un-vegan. Squish Sandwich Seller is located on the strip in a basement (get it; "seller?" It's a pun made in Wendytron™ heaven). They have a picture menu right up…More »
I've been here a few times, and I didn't realize I hadn't reviewed it yet!
I really appreciate the fact that they will turn any (or most) of their menu items in to a vegan item just for you. No sad, sour pasta or sad, dry veggie burger or gross salad…More »
Read someone's quick tip that they were able to walk here from Douglasdale. Well, since that's where I am, I decided to check it out.
Didn't walk, since I was with company, but it is pretty close by. A short drive through Bow Bottom, and it's in the…More »
I had never been to Blue Star Diner before, but I'm glad I got to visit with 3 lovely ladies. They fix a terrific vegan burger here, and I enjoyed their black bean soup. Beautiful, slightly breezy, sunny day. Three awesome, witty funny ladies to…More »
I used to walk by this pub all the time and not really think about ever going inside. I'm glad my first experience here was during a quiet, Board Game Sunday. The bartender was awesome, friendly and remembered my name (without shortening it to that…More »
I once wandered in to Tubby Dog after Beer Fest, extremely drunk and craving EVERYTHING. You know the feeling. You also know the after "Oh my God, I can't believe I ate an entire tub of butter last night" feeling the morning after.
Tubby Dog serves…More »
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 »
As far as Farmers Markets go (that's "Farmers Market," not "Farmer's Market." It's not run by a lone Old MacDonald!), Crossroads Market has a soft spot in my heart just for once housing La Mejor Comida Chilena. Not to mention, it was the first…More »
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 »

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 »

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 »

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 »

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 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 »
"I think our waitress hates us."
Stumbled in here after a night of drinking and bowling. Our waitress didn't seem to be a fan of our table, even though we were mostly sleepy. A table that came in ten minutes after us and ordered similar things got…More »
I used to work close by, so this was a fairly frequent stop after hours with my coworkers. I've been back a few times since then. The food is fairly consistent, they have a decent veggie burger and the servers are always pleasant.
However, one time,…More »
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 »
I used to stop by here on a regular basis when I worked across the street. I hadn't been to this location in years, but was starving on the way home from the park. This business is surrounded by loads of tempting independent joints... but, again, I…More »
While cramming a sub in to my face, my sister asked me how far away Peter's Drive-In was from where we were. I told her that it was 10 minutes away, and since I used to live across the street from it, I knew exactly where it was. She had never been,…More »

This place is okay. The table we got seated at that had salt (or sugar) all over it was okay. The service was okay.
Props to their site design for their menu *not* being a .pdf file. The simple green salad was delicious and filling, loaded with…More »
Had never been here before, went here to go to the farewell party of an irrationally sweet and exuberant girl I had just met. After navigating several flights of stairs, followed by a concrete maze, we arrived at the rooftop patio. The view of…More »
The layout of the store is designed specifically for the long line-ups for their ice cream. While people wait for their cones, they can peruse the shelves which are jam-packed with tooth-decaying delights. Your hands will probably be so full of candy…More »
Went here to try out their veggie burger. While waiting for my order, there was a photo on the wall of a burger made entirely of peas that claimed to be the veggie burger. Thankfully, that was not the case! The burger wasn't bad, albeit a little on…More »
Went here for a birthday. They treated the birthday girl well and my sweet potato fries were delicious. Drinks were reasonably priced and the guy playing early 90's grunge covers on his guitar wasn't half bad.
I ordered their veggie burger and they…More »
Service was fast; mostly, I think because my friend was friends with the servers. They complied with his need to have 4 extra plates of rice with his meal without batting an eyelash. Solid house red. Clean bathroom too. Was able to carry a…More »
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 »
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 »
COBS. Classy Oven Bread. That's not what it stands for, but it is some amazing deliciousness in my mouth that makes me want to throw all the other bread I have out. The ladies here are super sweet, with smiles that get wider as you add a million…More »
This place is so awesome! My BFF and I used to drive past it almost every morning on our way to Panama Red, and since my name is Tiffany too we had to stop in :) The owner is as sweet as her cupcakes. My BFF and I were on a mission to eventually try…More »
I used to work nearby, so I went almost every morning. Bumpy's has great coffee that basically ruined coffee in most other places for me. It's my crack. Everyone there is always warm and friendly, right down to the girl that used to cheerfully point…More »
Once again, a situation where I wish I could rate one member of the staff differently from the actual experience.
Granted, the ladies and I came here on an extremely busy pre-St. Patrick's Day Friday night, which meant it was a bologna forest in…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!
