4.0 star rating
  4/9/2011

It's taken me almost two weeks to decide what I thought of the Blackfoot Truck Stop. My first impression was a 2 star. I stopped in for lunch awhile back with a friend of mine and the place was packed at 130 in the afternoon with all kinds of folk,…More »

I was first introduced to CB in my olden Calgary days... maybe about 5 years ago. The introduction came from a Mexican guy I worked with. He wasn't afraid of trying just about any greasy spoon or hole-in-the-wall. "You should see the food carts I eat…More »

After reading the reviews and hearing about Morgan's from the friends I was with, this was not the Morgan's I was expecting.

It was Monday night with a DJ, a drum kit, go go dancers, a $3 cover and $1 six ounce glasses of Alberta Genuine Draft. The…More »

4.0 star rating
  Update - 3/7/2012

I took Ms Crystal H for a visit to Diner Deluxe this morning. It's an essential visit for guests and somehow I had neglected it before today! No matter, all is well in the world now.

This time round, the service was a wee bit on the slow side to…More »

4.0 star rating
  Update - 4/21/2012

Lunch for breakfast? Don't mind if I do! I had just flipped over the menu at Galaxie and noticed that it said lunch was available all day long. I've been on a breakfast kick as of late, so a cheeseburger at 10 am on a Friday sounded good to me!…More »

Calgary, AB T2S 1W7
(403) 245-6585

Category: Karaoke

3.0 star rating
  Update - 3/3/2012

The time to go to Ducky's is not on a weekend. In fact, it's way too busy on a weekend. When you're wanting karaoke and you need a bit more of an updated song selection than Nanta's, Ducky's can be your stage on a weekday night... like a Wednesday…More »

    Ducky's... oh Ducky's.  You remind me of a small town bar.  You know the one, right?  It's the only… Read more »
