    Was extremely excited to visit the Hitchin Post, because while we were visiting family at the High River Hospital most of the staff we met there recommended it to us. So one of the days we came to High River to visit family again we went there and ordered a mushroom cheeseburger, burger, hotdog, and a rootbeer shake. One thing I must say, is that the service was pretty good, considering that there were a lot of people lining up and ordering large amounts of food. But I was not wowed at all. The burgers were dry and the hotdog had a stale bun. Portions were very small and quality wasn't all there for the price. It was good to try it to see what they offered and what the hype was all about. But sorry to say folks, it was really all hype. So sad to say this won't be a go to place for us if and when we visit High River again. And certainly won't be a reason why we come to visit High River.

    This is my go to place every spring. It's closed during the winter months, so It's a sign of summer to me when it finally opens. I order ahead by mobile, when headed from Calgary. When I get to around Aldersyde I start dialing. I usually order an HP burger with a shake. The burger itself has two patties, plus the regular stuff and a piece of back bacon. I'm a real burger guy, and I always come back to this tasty treat. They also have your usual fries, and o rings, plus they have deep fried mushrooms. Try it when they're open for business, you wont be disappointed.

    Best burgers and shakes in town. Good fries that aren't greasy! Classic drive-in. Great staff service!

    Absolutely love this place. The HP burger and the mushroom gravy are two of the best menu items. So many shake flavors to choose from!

    Found this cute little ice cream shop during my time in Calgary. The store owner was a lovely woman…read morewho patiently described all the unique flavours of icecream she had. This place had some super unique flavours like Ube, Mango Sticky Rice and Coco Pandan. With an unlimited amount of toppings and sauces to choose from! I got try the Vietnamese Coffee and Halo Halo and it was delicious. You can just tell that this is premium icecream. Its so creamy and with the perfect amount of sweetness. If you ever get a chance to go here while you are in Calgary you should definitely check it out! 9/10 recommend!

    Abysmal customer service. I placed an order on DoorDash for an ice cream cake for my dad's birthday…read moreand three tubs of ice cream to accommodate a gluten free family member. That's an $88 order before any delivery or service fees are added. Abbey's Creations failed to provide me with any of the items that I ordered. First of all : The cake that I ordered was not in stock. Store policy is apparently not to remove an out of stock item from the menu but to call me after the order has been submitted and accepted (therefore Doordash does not give me my money back if I cancel) and tell me that my only option is to accept a different cake. I would not have submitted the order if I knew the original cake wasn't available. Secondly: they failed to include the three tubs of ice cream that I ordered and paid for in the delivery. So now I have zero tubs of ice cream and a cake that I did not want to begin with. Their only option for recompense is store credit at a place that I never want to have anything to do with again. Plus the credit is only for the ice cream that they failed to deliver and not for the cake in a flavour that they forced me into buying.

    We finally made it out to try XO Ice Cream and Waffles. It's tough to try new ice cream spots out…read morewhen the big 3 dominate in Cowtown. However, we were in the area so my sister suggested making a pitstop for dessert. We dropped in on a Tuesday afternoon (around 1:00pm). It's a tiny shop; currently only allowing one person/family in at a time. There was about 20 flavors to choose from (seasonal and summer specials). Sad that you currently can't sample any flavours. Lime cilantro sorbet (that wasn't listed) peaked my interest. - Double scoop ($8.00) - we added a waffle one ($1.00) and decided on the sour cherry and guava papaya sorbet as our two flavours. They were very generous scoops. The sour cherry was the winner with real pieces of cherry (a slightly sour bite). Stronger in papaya than guava flavour. I think their sorbet texture could use a bit of work but overall, we were happy campers. - Single scoop ($6.00) - my sister went with the same flavours as we weren't sharing. Always nice when you have the options to choose two flavours in a single scoop. Credit cards only. Massive scoops. 3.5 stars.

    XO Ice-Cream and Waffles is now open and is so close to my house so you can believe I am so…read moreexcited! This is a handmade ice-cream shop that you do not have to go downtown for! It is right in deep SE Calgary! Located in Auburn Bay, the shop offers unique flavours as well as beloved classics and seasonal delights. The menu features a selection of oh-so-unforgettable ice cream and sorbets, fluffy waffles and unique sundaes, all made fresh on site. On top of beloved classic flavours, they have seasonal delights on rotation. Some of the ice cream flavours they have and have previously had are: - Vanilla Bean - Chocolate: - Salted Caramel - Strawberry Rhubarb - Mint Chocolate Chip - Coconut - Pistachio - Blackberry Lavender - Vanilla Waffle - Earl Grey - Mango Sorbet - Blood Orange Sorbet - Cranberry Jam Cheesecake - Espresso - Cookies and Cream - S'mores - Elderflower Lemon Zest - Raspberry Rose Sorbet - Sour Cherry - Lemon Basil Sorbet - Pineapple Coconut - Matcha White Chocolate - Honey Ginger Yogurt - Pumpkin Chai - Golden Milk - Oatmeal Vegan - Pear Sorbet - Pear and Cinnamon - Roasted Black Sesame - Chocolate Almond - Candy Cane - Gingerbread - Speculoos Cookie Butter - Rum Eggnog - Eggnog - Rum Raisin - Austins Hot Chocolate - UBE - Dulche De Leche - Chocolate Vegan - Skor and Pretzel - Quinns Unicorn Crunch -Malt Chocolate Mini Egg - Hibiscus - Lemon Curd Poppyseed I have had one scoop of every single one of their flavours and I buy a pint of the ones I really like!The owners favourite flavour is coconut! The waffle flavours they have are: - Classic Sugar: - Churro: - Chocolate Chip: - Cinnamon and Honey (All come with a yummy chocolate dip) They also had (have) waffle pops (all were SO good): - The Party (White Chocolate and Sprinkles) - The Nutty (Chocolate, Almonds, Coconut and Caramel Drizzle) - The Berry (Whipped Cream, Strawberries and Chocolate Drizzle) Or you can get a sundae that combines the waffles and ice cream together! Choose any flavour of ice cream for this unique sundae that combines the best of both worlds! I haven't had this yet either and probably will not only because I want to try the homemade ice cream and waffles separately!
