This place is amazing. The setting is nice, low, warm, and overall very cozy. The food is great, the best "The lumberjack" is the best burger I've ever had in this city. The service is great, the waiter is very funny, patient, and friendly. 10/10. I recommend this place. read more

I used to like this place. It's kinda lame now. Very basic. Nothing special. Hurried servers. Im lad i wasn'ttoo thirsty. No ambiance. Not fun anymore. Cold. I kept my coat on. Just meh :/ read more

Second time there both good experiences pre hockey game deal and reasonable pricing 20% appetizers is a great deal just need to get there a couple of hours before puck drop as it is busy and takes some time for food they also pour a great Guinness!!!! Would definitely go again!! read more

Lovely spaced out patio that's dog friendly. The people at the other tables that brought their dogs had them hang out under the tables. Some tables have umbrellas, for whatever reason my friends selected one without, so I used my wrap to avoid too much sun (it's sneaky how it comes through the trees & angles of the buildings). It was a bit odd that none of the umbrellas were opened up though. One pup was quite happy to be back on the patio & knew what to do before the command was given. That's one cute regular! Entrance around & into patio is accessible & two entrance options so there's no bottleneck. The patio is connected to directly to the sidewalk extension & I appreciate there were no extra barriers on the patio entrance. Waitstaff was friendly, checked on us as much as they could & orders did arrive decently quick. Meals were all very much enjoyed by my brunch group. The large portion size was constant for all the orders & no question we were filled up. One even needed to pack a lot of the breakfast up & another just tapped out. My basic Eggs Benny with bacon was exactly what I needed for brunch. I enjoyed it. There wasn't anything special with the sauce nor the tater tots as a side but honestly I kind of just liked it plain (my stomach wouldn't of handled anything extravagant or spicey) & enjoyed soaking up the extra hollandaise sauce. Downside, patio seating is with picnic tables. This is not as mobility friendly as people would like to think it is. Even as a cane user, I struggled getting in & even more so getting back out. I didn't even go inside to use the washroom as I didn't have it in me to do an extra round getting my legs under the table. I grabbed parking at one of the nearby lots as the street parking only had a few openings a couple blocks away (not a distance my mobility was capable of that early afternoon but if you do snag one on the long weekend at least it's free). If you're in & out within an hour, it's less than $8 at that particular lot (high but still tolerable). However, what I didn't realize (even with zipstall app) was how expensive 2 hrs would be ($16!). So if you're already in the neighbourhood walking around or don't need to worry about getting close parking, you're fine & thus avoid that sticker shock with brunch. Not the restaurant's fault but the city really should work together with parking lots Downtown (especially on a long weekend Monday). This is why I don't brunch or shop often in the area, as there's very limited parking on the street & even rarer to find any handicap zones. I had hoped with the app that the cost would be under $10 but that was my reminder on a learning lesson from a few years ago... For those that are bothered by the smell of cigarette smoke, etc., big FYI that smokers like to hang out really close by to the patio. As do the panhandlers waiting around. I didn't enjoy smelling smoke while eating & was grateful that wasn't constant throughout the time outside. While there, only one waitstaff that was outside regularly (granted a guy helped deliver food a few times) but they seem like they were run off their feet (or at least that's what I guess, as it was long spurts between us seeing anyone for coffee & water refills). There was always people going into the pub to eat & drink. So they could have left us a pitcher of water on the table which would have made it easier on them checking on us & for us to enjoy being in the moment of the visit. As we felt like we needed to actively watch for someone to get a refill on water &/or coffee. Overall, we had a good time catching up, as the weather played nice for a couple of hours. The food was tasty & lovely to see pups welcomed on the patio. However, I won't be going back to the patio anytime soon as I prefer to enjoy my food without a side of secondhand smoke. read more

We came here with another couple for some food and drinks after a comedy show at Rogers place. The drinks were good and came our quickly! We ordered the combo platter and a side of the cheeseburger spring rolls. Oh my were those ever good!! I would definitely order those again. The server was nice and attentive but the food took forever to come out. We ordered our food and did not receive it until 1 hour later. The bill was pretty normal priced and not expensive. Drinks are good price ranging from $6-$10 and the appetizer platter was $38. I would come here again if I was looking to just have some drinks with friends but know that if you order food it might take a while to come out. read more

Came in for a late lunch. Upon arriving we weren't greeted initially and then was asked to seat ourselves, which was understandable since the waitress was working alone. The atmosphere was very much pub like, with jerseys on the walls and I enjoyed the decor and atmosphere. When I worked closer to Kelly's, this was our go to lunch spot, however it's been a few years. My partner ordered the nachos with ground beef. He mentioned that the beef was quite greasy, and it definitely needed more cheese. I also have to note that extra sour cream was $3.75, which is kind of wild! I ordered the chicken Cesar salad, which was good, however I did find the chicken to be a bit tough and overcooked. Overall 3.5/5. Still definitely worth checking out! read more

I don't usually like giving few stars. We enjoyed their nice patio while watching a basketball game. Service was nice and good. However, even though I was looking forward to my virgin raspberry mojito, i was disappointed by it. Felt more like a soda with bits of raspberry in it. Didn't taste like a mojito at all. I couldn't taste the lime or mint. We were also disappointed in the burger sliders. The meat was very dry. It's hard to tell just by looking which burger had which sauce. The food and drink experience was underwhelming. Otherwise, nice atmosphere. read more

Located very central on 104st. The vibe is very sport bar type of pub. The restaurant itself is decorated like a classic Irish pub with license plates on the walls. The restaurant is kinda small but nice. The service was polite but slightly slow. There was only a couple of servers so it was understandable for the slow service. The bean burger was great and the fries were perfectly seasoned. Overral, decent place for a sport bar. It can be a bit crowded and loud inside. read more

Kelly's Pub - Bean burger - Pubs Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Stick to the specials, mainly the drinks, and you should be good at Kelly's. Good place to have a pint and watch football or whatever, lots of TVs and good visibility, but the food is more miss than hit. I've been here twice, once for Downtown Dining Week, and once before a hockey game. Food is below average, definitely overpriced by $5/dish for the quality given what other downtown pubs offer for the price. It is 104 Street however, so crazy prices should be anticipated. It is standard mid-to-lower range food service stuff, so don't expect anything brilliant. The Friday steak sandwich special at $12 is a good deal, relatively speaking - recommended. My fussy eater friend finished his so that's saying something. Several people in our group ordered it and the steaks all came out as ordered, and they were 6oz as advertised. Fries were standard fare, definitely out of a bag. Coleslaw was yuck, shredded red cabbage drowning in a sweet mayo dressing, give it a pass. My beef dip was almost tasteless, even with the aioli, and the au jus must have been the tears of consommé cuz it had no flavour whatsoever. At $17, it's totally not worth your time. Soup of the day was cauliflower cheese, very salty, and both gals in our group who ate some of it felt unwell after. Not a great start to our evening. Service was friendly and fairly prompt. One friend (our DD!) got a surprise when her coke ended up being someone else's double highball. Whoops! I'd come here for drinks and maybe appys, but honestly if you care to walk a little further, Sherlock's is a better bet. read more

My boyfriend and I went here for drinks after work. He got a beer which was very flat and I had the cider on tap which was ok. After that we just ordered the bottled beer to be on the safe side. We ordered an appy too the baked artichoke and Spinage dip which was awesome! The dip came with chips, veggies and toasted bread for dipping which was really nice. The atmosphere is casual and laid back with an old Irish pub feel. It's a good location downtown to grab some food before going out or just after work hangout with friends. The service was also friendly and it seemed like they had a lot of happy hour specials and upcoming events at the pub. I'd be curious to go back and check out the live entertainment as I hear they sometimes have. read more

Very disappointed we ordered the crunchy chicken sandwich, it wasn't just crispy it was dry and over cooked ( you could taste the burnt ). I also ordered the philly cheese steak, I was really looking forward to it but it hardly had any sauce, there was one tiny piece of roast beef and hardly any onions or peppers. For $19 you would expect to be able to at least taste the ingredients not just the bun. I will say that last week I ordered their platter and it was pretty tasty and the honey hot wings are yummy. read more

Conveniently located down the street from Credo this new pub opened up about two months ago. It definitely has a trendy vibe inside and it does seem like a "hip" place. There are lots of tables here with a decent sized bar. That being said I kind of get the feeling it's one of those places that try to be everything. The music is really loud in here and that makes the voices of the patrons louder, which results in a continuous positive feedback loop that hurts my head. This definitely is not the place if you are a micro brew beer person as the selection is limited to the commercial. I tried my first Tennants here because it was "different." And later learned that the $7.50 they charged is ridiculous compared to the 1.50 pounds they charge for this stuff in Scotland. Wasn't pleased about that. The service was below average. I don't know if they are understaffed, but they were extremely slow. Once I inquired about if they lacked appropriate staffing the service did pick up. The bright spot would have to be the Silk Road burger. It is decent. The fix-in's were skimpy, but the meat of the burger was really good. Not worth the $15 though (comes with a small side salad). For me, this wouldn't be a first or second choice in the area. But I will come back to see if things have improved. It was a Friday night so maybe that had something to do with it. read more

You really can't beat this play if you're looking for a local pub downtown. The food has some great value (Monday is wing nights) and the happy hour prices rock (see photo) I watched them come out with a cheese pizza, and wings and they both came out great. We came here on a random night, and the prices for 2 beers here were cheaper than 1 beer at craft (and yes, it was the exact same beer) Super friendly inside, I've seen stags here, and old guys with beers at the bar. It's kind of tucked in, so you might not see it. But it's worth going. Pros Good prices Feels like a neighborhood pub Cons Sometimes understaffed. read more

Kelly's Pub - Happy hour all day - Pubs Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Kelly's is a great local pub to come out and socialize. The staff is amazing and very friendly. There is a good outdoor patio that you can come out and people watch and eat lunch. The fish and chips here are very good. They also have some good karaoke on Sunday nights and you have a mixture of singers that come up. On Thursday nights they have jamaoke nights with the Nervous Flirts. Basically it's singing karaoke with a live band. What a blast. Come on down if you want a good friendly atmosphere. read more

Kelly's Pub - Turkey dinner. - Pubs Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Headed downtown for the Farmers' Market when a downpour started. We took refuge in Kelly's and ordered brunch. My ham and cheese omelette was OK, perhaps a bit over cooked. Toast was dry, potatoes were deep-fried. My companion had a very odd version of Sheppard's pie. It came with a side of orangey gravy. The mashed potatoes were totally white as it had not been baked at all. Surprisingly, the meat was pretty tasty. Coffee was watery and service was good. I think this would be a good place for a drink and bar snacks. read more

I haven't tried any of the food here and only came for drinks. I actually came for a business meeting on a Friday mid afternoon and the place had a few patrons drinking up and ready to start the weekend! We were seated towards the back and pushed a few tables together as most were for 2 or 4 people. Because we were arriving at different times, the server would come as people arrived to get their drink orders. I looked at the drink menu and there was a good variety to choose from beers, cocktails, and martinis. I chose a fruity drink that came served with ice and served in a mason jar which was nice to have a handle. I liked it and could have ordered another if it weren't for a business meeting! I found the noise level was ok when I first arrived but then it seemed to get louder. It could have been from the TVs showing sports and more people being in the pub. When I left it was just about closing time and getting busy with workers having a drink to celebrate the end of the work week. The long tables near the front were occupied with groups. The server was good to get our drink orders and drinks and then left us to chat. I didn't look at the food menu but wouldn't oppose to having a meal here next time. Washrooms were near the back but there wasn't much traffic walking by our tables. read more

Stopped in here last night before the hockey game. Place was jam packed with Oiler fans. All servers were on spot with great service. Our server, Mandy recommended the two topping pizza described as dope. Not sure what she meant by dope, but it was fresh and tasty. Draught on tap was cold and refreshing, TV's on every wall showing every game from hockey, baseball and basket ball. Older crowd seemed like, but it was a nice little joint close to Rogers Place. The table beside us ordered some kinda yorkies, the aroma sent me on a tizzy to England, roast beef, gravy and horseradish wafted to my table. Oh I wanted to grab a fork and join them. Thank you Kelly Pub I will return for those yorkies. read more

I've been to Kelly's a few times (granted I've been here only when I've been wasted) but tonight was honestly one of the worst experiences I've had in a restaurant. The 'restaurant' was not only understaffed, but the staff who were present were drinking on shift, and COMPLETELY rude and useless. I had to walk into the bar and get my own menu. The waitress maybe came by the table every 25 mins. Because of the shit service, no one tipped. So the ballsy ass waitress decided to put all of the tip onto one bill (and it was the cheapest of all of us, lol bad idea sis!). When she was approached about it, it was adjusted and she sealed her fate saying "have a good FUCKING night". I have been to many restaurants, in many countries, and honestly, this one needs to change ownership and QUICK. Meth heads behind the bar, drunks 'serving' the guests..... this place is fucked and should be closed. Alexa play Knew Better by Ariana Grande. read more

Great specials and amazing food make this place an instant favourite. This is a great place to pop in for a drink after work, meet friends for before the game, or hang out at. When things get busy you might need to be a little more assertive about getting attention from your sever, but they're always great, friendly, and helpful. Try the kettle chips or a burger while your there. Also really like the perogi pizza too! read more

Excellent location on 104 Street close to the new arena and other places if you're going bar hopping in downtown. Definitely our favorite place in the city to watch UFC events as they play them on all the screens and the turnout is great. Also a great spot to catch Oilers games with numerous large and small TVs that can be easily seen. Good prices and selections for beers and other drinks. Food can be hit and miss or this place would be 5/5. Nachos are pretty disappointing and I would recommend not getting them, especially compared to other pubs in the city. read more

I've come here a few times since I live in the area now and I really love it. They have great specials, are always busy with a positive and fun-loving crowd, have good food and good service. It is always busy but never so busy that its impossible to walk around. They play good music, sometimes even live, and its a fun atmosphere! Decor is fun, reminiscent of an Irish Bar obviously. If you are looking for a little snack I would definitely recommend the Baked Artichoke and Spinach Dip. My friends tell me that the Stuffed Yorkies area also really good. Allen in particular is great. I would definitely return again to see him! read more

Been here a couple of times before taking in a hockey game since walking distance away. My buddy loves coming here before and after hockey games. Nothing fancy about the place, typical pub with TV screens. Were here on a Monday so it was half price wings. I didn't order any but my friends ordered a bunch and they did look good. Also ordered the nachos and no issues there. We're loaded up with toppings and cheese and very big platter. I ordered the bacon and cheese burger with side salad. Was actually very good, huge and the beef seemed in house made, definitely very filling and good. I would order this again. Service can be hit or miss. Took about 10 minutes after I sat down before someone came to take my order. Though after the hockey game when I went again, someone came right away to take my order as I sat down. It's Not a big pub so just be warned that it can get very packed during or after hockey games. I don't find the place that special other than the location. So a perfect place to grab a bite and some drinks before taking in a hockey game....and definitely cheaper than at Rogers. read more

Kelly's Pub - Pubs Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Three things hit me early on at Kelly's. First, it's LOUD; they blast the music causing everyone in the place to speak loudly and require a lot of leaning forward to your compatriots and ask them to repeat themselves. I want to talk to the people I'm with and that was way too much work. Second, the service was slow; I had to wait about 10 minutes just to order my first drink. Third, the beer sucks; since I had 10 minutes to choose my first drink, I had time to read over their fairly lengthy beer list and was at a loss to pick one. They did have 2 mystery taps though which kept me in my seat waiting for the server. When she finally showed up, they only had 1 mystery tap available and that was Blanche de Chambly...good enough. I took that as my only beer at this place for the night. Amazingly it was only $7 which is cheaper than most of the beer menu of macro brew lagers. I'm unlikely to come back to see if my first 2 problems were one offs as there's nothing for me to drink here. read more

OMG! What happened! You opened the doors the first couple of weeks and were great, although the menu was not quite off and running at that time and music was not blasting like it is now and oh well! Downward ho, you will go! The volume of your music is prohibitive for dining and conversation and for me that means no more patronization. Oh yes, you need to clean up the disgusting cigarette butts (100's of them )discarded by your patrons directly outside your door into a beautiful tree planted by the city!!! read more

What surprises me the most about Edmonton's 104th Street, often called the 4th street promenade, is that while they seem to have some really good businesses that focus on quality, accuracy and improving the taste of Edmonton (Evoolution, Credo, Dauphine, Bubble Buzz, Carbon Boutique, Devine Wines, Corso, to name a few) there are some rather middle of the road, ordinary places opening up of late. I've already been disappointed by Mercer and Roast. Kelly's is right there - middle of the road. Uninspiring beer menu with arbitrarily high prices for pretty ordinary and predictable beers. Loud music with ordinary service (on a Friday night). The music equipment was the kind where you couldn't really hear the lyrics of the songs, but just the heavy bass side of the spectrum. Food that looks good but also seems a tad expensive ($15 for (smallish) burger with fries). An all around average place. I may have become a bit of a beer snob of late, but the more I think of it, the more I feel that many of these places are not even trying to have a well defined brand, and this disappoints me. Don't get me wrong - I would happily hop into a bar that doesn't have a unique tap list, if it at least had a great ambience, good music, good service and all around fun experience. Does Kelly's satisfy the 'neighborhood pub' feel? Perhaps on a weeknight, but definitely not on a Friday night, when we went. Maybe if they did pub quizes, karaoke nights and such, they'd have something going for them (NOTE: there isn't a single place in Edmonton that currently does pub quizes - here's your opening). Apart from that, I'd much rather stay in my neighborhood, that's filled with drunken 19 year olds puking on the streets, but still has at least one awesome neighborhood pub - Next Act. Drinks are roughly the same price, food slightly cheaper (and bigger servings), service far better on average and you can actually talk to your friends there. I think the downtown area really disappoints in the pubs/lounges/bars scene. Yes, it has some of the best eateries in town, but the outdatedness of the pub scene is actually shocking in comparison. read more

Yes, "Eck! Methinks not." Not again that is. Thank goodness for Yelp. I check before I go out and if I see two reviews like the one I'm about to write, I just skip forward to the next place. It was Friday night. They were out of four beers so we asked for the house wine. Apparently they were out of that. After asking for the wine we got an unapologetic apology. This is going to be interesting. The server was very busy. Perhaps we're understaffed for a Friday night? I learned an important lesson about pizza, actually I kind of suspected but my partner was hankering for pizza. If you're at an Irish pub, don't get the pizza. If they had brought TONY'S (http://www.tonys.com/about-tonys.htm) it would have been far superior to what was served to us that night. The prosciutto was brown and rubbery. The Parmesan shavings were from the end of the cheese which isn't really cheese but wax. I ate a piece of wax, only I didn't really eat it because I realized I was chewing on wax and spit it out, EW. The sauce was sweet, no real flavor other than sugar. I ate a few bites of a couple of pieces before I gave up completely. The crust was...interesting. Not chewy or crisp. Soggy yet dry. I enjoyed the wine. We were sitting on a tilt. Due to the tilt a glass of wine was knocked over and broken. Someone other than our server saved the day by compiling the pieces together, covering them with a tray to make it obvious not to the step there while he grabbed a broom and a dust pan. He brought my partner an extra glass of wine. Acknowledged that we shouldn't be sitting on a tilt. Our server argued with him about the placement of the table. Awkward. After all of this she went to a table in the corner and gossiped about another girl with some, I'm assuming, gal pals. The mixture of attitude coming off the waitress and food of worse quality than a deli mart makes it obvious that this is a place that preys on tourists. No thanks. I won't go back, you can't make me. read more

Can not find nothing to not like about this place, has a great feel and decor. The food (bangers and mash) was spot on and the wheat beer was top notch. I came here during the Champions League final so thankfully they were showing it although the sound was minimal but that did not stop me and my buddy enjoying it on their big projection screen. I also tried some of their hot wings, and like wow, way too hot for my liking but fair play to my friend for finishing them and not crying like a baby. read more

I want to love Kelly's, I really do. When it relocated to 104th Street, I was excited. The neighbourhood feel of the former location was fantastic, and it was a decidedly unpretentious place to grab a pint. Unfortunately, the new location suffers from a few problems: 1) Service - It's been consistently disappointing, and my sample size is around 10 visits, so no one-off bad experience tainting this review. Some of the servers are great - until you're transferred to a dud server that never bothers to visit you again. When this problem was addressed, the server in question was defensive and unapologetic. Bad news. 2) Food - Inconsistent. Some food here is delish - I LOVE their pig wings, for example: the giant ribs smothered in barbeque sauce are to die for. However, other dishes fall flat or worse. These include over-salted deviled eggs (which have mercifully been removed from the menu), to improperly-cooked pizza. 3) Temperature - This may seem like a nitpick, but in a winter city like Edmonton, it is worth mentioning. Pubs should be cozy and comfortable, but Kelly's is always freezing cold. I have no idea why, but the last few times I've come by I forgot to layer and paid the price through my whole stay. If Kelly's gets its act together, it could be a really great space! They've got a cool venue, great location, the infrastructure and even some wonderful menu items. But until they work on their service and bring up the quality of the food (as well as the thermostat) it'll be a once in a blue moon spot for me. read more

Perhaps my rating is skewed by the fact that I was dining with a group of 12 colleagues, but one would think that a downtown establishment offering food over the lunch hour would offer better service than we received. I think the fact that we were dining in a large group posed challenges to the wait staff and the kitchen: -Only half of the table was asked for their drink orders. The other half of the table had to remind the waitress about 20 mins after sitting down that our orders hadn't been taken yet. -The food took about 45 mins for the first dishes to arrive to the table. Dishes were delivered to about two people at a time, over the span of about 20 minutes. Most of us had to throw our manners aside and dig in before everyone had their food. Being on a pre-vacation diet (boo!), I decided to take the healthy route and order a salad. I chose "The Vegan" which was lettuce and some vegetables. Unfortunately, despite the menu specifying that it would be dressed with a red wine vinaigrette, my salad arrived bone dry with not a drop of dressing. The waitress did bring some eventually, but it took some time- luckily a salad doesn't get cold while waiting for condiments! A brief survey of the rest of the group indicated that the more "pub-style" foods were also slightly disappointing. Comments included that the fish was over-battered and that the reuben sandwich was mediocre and sloppily put together. Maybe the dining experience would have been different if there were just a few of us, but unfortunately Kelly's Pub doesn't seem up to the task of offering a work lunch. read more

Maybe it's because they're still fairly new, but Kelly's Pub needs to get a little more organized. I came here for a work lunch and granted, it was a large group of us but we made reservations well in advance, so you'd think that the establishment would be prepared for us and make sure there were enough staff on hand. Apparently not, because it was only the lone bartender on duty when we arrived and she was already busy with several other patrons. Our waitress ran in like 20 min later. One of my colleagues murmured to me, "Does she still have pillow marks on her face??" When we finally got our orders in, it was another long wait just for the food. Two of us, myself included, ordered the pulled pork po-boy, which were the last entrees to arrive. Everyone else had practically finished their meals by the time we were able to bite into ours because everything was brought out staggered and slowly. Since the sandwich was stuffed with pork, I don't usually mind when they take their time cooking it -- no one wants sketchy pork! But the extra wait, coupled with the poor service and the wait just to get our orders in was a bit much. The po-boy itself was pretty good, tender and chewy with lots of sweet, tangy sauce. But I was only able to eat maybe half my sandwich and needed to have the rest packed up to go, because by then everyone else had finished their meals. Even a sandwich like that can't make up for the lacklustre service we experienced. Maybe they step up their game for the after-work crowd in the evenings, at least I would hope so, otherwise it does not look good for business. read more

Decent pub in the heart of downtown. There are lots of good food choices on 104st, but Kelly's is the go to for casual frolic and fun. Nice patio in summer, and warm atmosphere inside the rest of the year. Parking is sparse at night, but Kelly's validate for the Impark lot across the street. I have eaten here on more than one occasion, and found the food to be very good pub fair. Burgers and sandwiches are generous and tasty, and the fish tacos were very good. Staff are pleasant, and the service has been good, though it can get spotty when things are really hopping. Not the biggest room, and it can get cozy in there on a busy night. All around, I recommend this as a great watering hole in the neighbourhood. read more

Their butter chicken is just wicked. This is rapidly becoming my favourite pub in Edmonton (sorry, Craft!). The place is quite tranquil during weekday evenings (went on a Tuesday eve). The waitress is polite and quick and patient with customers. Apparently the chef's speciality is the butter chicken. My friend tells me that all items on the menu are quite good as well. Good beer selection - not super large supply but good enough. Nice atmosphere. Clean bathrooms. Recommend their outdoor patio during summer. read more

Just went for drinks with friends on a Saturday night. The server didn't tell us about specials or anything and then they were out of the beer we tried to order (only 5 or so on tap so it shouldn't be hard to keep them stocked..). Whatever, we ordered a different kind. But it took 20 minutes for her to come back with it. It was just beer - it doesn't take that long to pour. All around, slow service all night. Except when she brought the bill; then she came back with the machine within 2 seconds, before anybody had even looked at it or pulled out their wallets. Not likely to go back. Nothing special. read more

I tried to go to Kelly's once many months ago, but it was packed and the waitress who told us so was a mega b-word, so I turned around and walked out rather than waiting for a table. I finally returned last night for the premiere of the KickupaFuss music video. Arrived around 7pm and it wasn't full, even though there was an Oilers game. Grabbed a table and the waitress took drink orders right away. However, she didn't bring food menus even though it was the dinner hour. After a couple of visits to our table I had to ask for menus. My uncle ordered a caeser and it came with a pepper, a bean AND a pepperoni stick. Nice. There were four of us and we all ordered different thing - a sandwich, a burger, fish and chips and shepherd's pie. Food took longer to come out than I like. I had the wild mushroom burger ($15) and really enjoyed it. Everyone seemed to like what they had. Our waitress was nice, and she did mention she was new, but the service was still super slow. There was another girl clearing tables and she literally stood right in front of me for 30 seconds right while the music video was playing - THE EVENT THAT EVERYONE WAS THERE FOR. I kept moving my head around to try to look around her. Take a hint, lady. Do it during the hockey game that I don't care about, not during the specific thing that all of these people are here for. I should mention that my cousin is in this band so I really wanted to see it. Judging by the other reviews and the first time I tried to go to Kelly's, service is generally always poor.

Our waitress looked and acted as if we were a bother. I ordered a gin and soda took over 5min to get. Ordered a poutine took 25min, and asked if I could get a fork, well had to ask a second time. The poutine was flavorless I don't use salt and added some it didn't help. The bucket it was served made feel like u was eating out of a garbage can Calamari if you tried it blind folded you wouldn't know what meat it was. read more
