I got the steak sandwich in a pub which I was pleasantly surprised it was really good. Half-price wine can't go wrong.

The service is always amazing, the food is delicious and as a neighbourhood pub you couldn't ask for anything more. Note to self: It can get a little loud on a Saturday night with a large table of rowdies who don't consider anything or anybody but themselves. I am adding their truffle parmesan fries to my 'last meal' order ;-)

I can't say enough about Porch! Such good food, and the ambiance is stunning. Especially for a nice…read moredinner with friends or if you're trying to impress a date. Their salmon was fantastic. I'm always scared it's going to be overcooked, because at many restaurants the fish usually is, but this was perfectly grilled and well seasoned. The bed of veggies underneath had a really nice, subtle flavor that complemented the fish without overpowering it. I also ordered their banana cocktail, which honestly surprised me. I didn't think I would ever like banana in a cocktail, but it was absolute heaven. Smooth, balanced, and not overly sweet. One of those drinks you think about ordering again halfway through. For food, I also had the braised short ribs, and they were excellent. Super tender, rich, and full of flavor. Definitely one of those comforting dishes that still feels elevated and well executed. The decor deserves its own mention. The space is warm, stylish, and thoughtfully designed, and there's an actual live tree inside the restaurant, which is such a cool touch. You can already tell this place must be incredible in the summer when everything is open and lively. Overall, Porch delivers on food, drinks, and atmosphere. Easily a spot I'd come back to, whether for dinner, drinks, or a special night out.

We saw they were going to open at 11am, and decided to try our luck by getting there right at opening since we didn't have a reservation. We got lucky and got seated right away! - PARKING - Street parking, make sure you take note of how long you paid for! - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - The ambiance inside is so nice and airy, with greenery and natural light shining through. There's also a super cute swing area next to the bar area that you can sit. I really liked the overall interior design! The staff was very attentive for our large party throughout our meal. There are bathrooms downstairs as well. - FOOD - Bacon Jam Benedict ($20.00): Loved the flavor combination in this! The sweet savory maple bacon jam worked so well! We upgraded to the fried potatoes ($4.00) and they were pretty tasty. Carrot Cake French Toast ($24.00): We got one to share with the table, and I'm glad we didn't commit because it was just OK to me. I wish there was more mascarpone filling, and also a different sauce than chocolate because it didn't pair well for me. Winter Nights ($19.00): We wanted to get some greens in and chose this salad. I enjoyed the mix of greens and also the fennel salami which gave a salty bite! Truffle Parm Fries ($13.00): We also got this to share with the table and you can't go wrong with these! - OVERALL - Great brunch option if you have a small or large group! Really nice airy ambiance for a nice start to your day.

Being known for always trying something new we decided to have a late lunch/ early supper. BJ's cafe is totally small town, old school. Love it! Asked to order a cocktail... no go. But! You can go next door (the next room) to the Lazy Ace Saloon and they have the same menu. Woo hoo! This place has character! They have posters for upcoming bands and looks like they host them on a regular basis. They have food specials and I had the steak sandwich daily special. Yep, the steak was fabulous and done perfectly to my usual preference of still mooing. Service was great, place was clean and they obviously have a passion for the Calgary Flames (to my Hub's, an Oilers fan, disappointment!). We will be back 100%.

I've whiled away quite a few afternoons at this quaint watering hole on 51st St SW. The primary…read moredraw to this place in the afternoon are the VLTs. I'm pretty sure there's a retirement community in the area, because the oldsters make up a disproportionately large segment of the clientele at this hour. Ladies gambling and gossipping, and dudes sitting around stoically drinking draft beer. Basically, this place is like a Tim Hortons, but with gambling. I'm sure the average age of clientele decreases as the night progresses, but I've only been there in the early evenings myself. The pub itself is full of dark, rich woods, and the service is always friendly and timely. There are both table and booth seating, and a full kitchen with everything from nibblers to mains, as well as daily specials.

We usually hit this pub at least once every time we're in Calgary (4 to 6 times/year)…read more We have LOVED this Pub since 2021. Always had tons of Skip the Dishes orders being picking up, and the food was really good, large portions, decent prices on Wing Night. NOT.ANY.MORE. Went to wing night Monday August 26th. Arrived at 6 pm. One lone waitress . . . with 20+ Customers throughout the Pub. Prices have gone up drastically on Wing Night. I ordered White wine, and got the last 6 oz available. They were ALL OUT of White wine. By 7 pm, there were at least 40 people in the Pub, not including the 12 people who left between 6 and 7. Waitress had only been there 2 weeks. We have noticed since the new takeover, that multiple times we've gone, there is only 1 Waitress. No Bartender- no dishwasher clearing tables, etc. We ordered Samosas - all out. Took ages to get our drinks and food, but I will blame the Manager for not having enough staff. Our Waitress offered to run next door to a liquor store to get more wine, but she had zero down time to do so. We used to LOVE this Pub, but no longer. They keep removing items ( no more What The Huck on tap), increasing prices, shrinking portions. We were a table of 5 and gave our poor overworked and overstressed waitress a large tip. Heard another table telling her that they too have noticed they only schedule 1 waitress. On.A.Wing.Night. WTF IF we ever go back, I'll call ahead to see how many workers they have. It's too bad, because the locals in the area starting to look and go elsewhere

Upon being interviewed and hired at lennox pub i was informed the kitchen position i was being…read morehired for was "so hard to get anyone to take" because of the location and lack of transit for their closing hours. Why?obviously because just like everyone else they dont pay enough for most people to afford a home and a car. I took the position for over two months, walked home for over an hour many nights, alone as a woman. I was told i wasfired because the company was given two foriegn workers when they expected one and apparently company policy since 2020 has been to take foriegn workers over local. That policy was spoken to me directly verbatim from the general managers mouth. Times are tough for local calgarians. Im born and raised here, should that really be a policy? I would caution patrons to chose wisely where you spend your money. Perhaps not with the tmac group that owns Lennox pub. Food: 1/5 | Service: 1/5 | Atmosphere: 1/5 3
