You get what you pay for and if you pay a little extra (or a lot extra) at the Brass Monocle you will be more than satisfied with what you get. As Danny F. mentioned you will certainly avoid looking like every other glasses wearing Calgarian. The…More »

The Grand Dame of Calgary's punk/rock/rockabilly/alt-count ry scene. Ages range from 18 - 80. Gay friendly. There is nothing like it in Calgary and if you don't like it there it's probably because you don't belong there.

This is a unique treasure in a city filled with stores that carry different variations of the same thing. The owner painstakingly chooses unique and special items that are sure to make for some fantastic gift giving. If you are lucky enough to have…More »

I LOVE FARM. I think it is a cozy restaurant, I have never had to wait long and the food is always exceptional. I have eaten several different ways there, sometimes sharing appetizers, entrees or salads. I always enjoy the charcuterie and rarely skip…More »

4.0 star rating
  9/24/2011

I have had JAROblue on my radar pretty much since it opened but haven't yet made my way there until tonight. I was there for the YELP EATS event so what better way to introduce yourself to a restaurant than to do so with the intent of eating for…More »

5.0 star rating
  3/1/2011

For me Beano is the most vibrant, exciting coffee shop in town. I am surprised by all the negative comments here! Sure the staff can be a little surly at time but they deal with a massive amount of people throughout the day and I personally don't…More »

UNA is exceptional! I have had five meals there since it opened and they have been consistently delicious. I also love the busy and exciting atmosphere, it's not the place to go if you are looking for intimate conversation, it's a place to go and…More »

Phil and Sebastian's is what it is. It has delicious coffee, I always find it a treat to stop there. I also like that it's located in Marda Loop, I love businesses that stray from the expected neighborhoods (like 17th or Mission), though they are in…More »

I am never going to another movie theatre again!!. As a Kensington Resident, I feel lucky to have this theatre in my back yard. It is one of the only places in Calgary that makes me feel like I live in a big city. It is so fucking cool inside, the…More »

Category: Thrift Stores

4.0 star rating
  9/18/2011

I wish there were more vintage stores in Calgary like Used. It's one thing to have a vintage clothing store crammed full of clothing, leaving the treasure hunting up to the buyer, it's another to present vintage clothing in a stylized manner around a…More »
