Amazing food amazing service good atmosphere and prices are not that bad. Overall really amazing

The place has a nice vibe, great outdoor patio for dining, good music. The internet is more dark with few windows, a true bar. I'd choose outside weather permitting. Server was very nice, didn't hover but made sure we had all we needed. Had fish tacos, and salad. A lil too much cabbage on the tacos then needed for my taste. The flavor was very good. Salad had quinoa and home dressing. Yum! Hubby had fish n chips. He was happy the fish was cod. Not the best he has had but not the worst either. Overall, a good local joint! read more

This spot in Medicine Hat was my favorite restaurant we had by far. The atmosphere was amazing, and the service was on point. Their food was a little bland in my opinion, but they had a decent selection of beer and truly, the patio is a great spot to eat and enjoy the day. read more

The food tasted good once I finally got a hot plate served, though I only ever got 1/2 my meal. Other people at my table only got 1/2 their meals too. And My dinner companions can't all say the same about the temperature of their food as 1/2 of it was cold. After sitting for 2 hours waiting for food and maybe a drink refill the manager dismissed us saying that they were too busy and that's why tables seated after us were already leaving. Horrible service and horrible management. I will never spend my hard earned money in this shit hole again. read more

The chicken sandwich is the best I've ever had in my life! I'm not even kidding. The breading they use on the outside makes it so crisp and delicious. It's unreal how yummy this is! We shared the press burger and the chicken sandwich with Yan fries and greens! Both were amazing in flavor but the chicken just blew the burger out of the water! Parking wasn't too bad. We parked about a block away on the street. read more

I took my husband here for his birthday after visiting Local with my girl friends. Their burger size are huge and pretty juicy! We have gluten and dairy allergies and the witness was really friendly and helpful. Too bad they don't have gluten buns and only have lettuce wraps. The yam fries are huge as well and I love that they have truffle lemon aloie which remind me of one of our favourite garment gluten free burger joint in Victoria BC has so many aloie options includes truffle ones !!! ( the name is Bin 4 ) However, looks like beside burger and fries that you don't get your money worth here. I ordered a steak sandwich and it wasn't worth it for it's price. Over all we were pretty happy with my husband's birthday that day! read more

Man they really gotta get chocolate milk uf they don't get chocolate milk I'm Fr gonna have to step up and get it for them, I will be setting up a chocolate milk stand on the 26 of September outside of the local for all the poor people who end up eating here without chocolate milk. The food is truly amazing though and I do love the environment. read more

LOCAL Public Eatery Medicine Hat - The environment - Canadian (New) Near Me - Medicine Hat, Alberta

Our family was so happy to stumble upon this place on our road trip to the West Coast. I am not surprised that this restaurant nabbed quite a number of positive yelp reviews before we set foot in here. What struck me first was the amazing décor and unique ambiance of the place. I was particularly impressed with all the bar taps hanging from the ceiling, the comfortable booths and the ambient lighting. I was also impressed with the large outdoor patio. The menu offers burgers, jerk chicken, wings, salads, taco's and such as well as a seared Ahi Tuna sandwich (which I selected.) While I enjoyed my meal, I would recommend that the fish be presented in an open faced sandwich with some type of sauce drizzled on top. The delicious tuna steak is a little lost hidden between two pieces of rye bread. Note: Gluten free options are provided here! The waitress assured me that the cooks are knowledgeable and that the grill would be thoroughly cleaned for us. Nice! Medicine Hat is not a big place and I'd say this town is lucky to have them. When we get back home we are planning to post a few pictures of the Local Public Eatery. read more

This was a fun stop in Medicine Hat for lunch while on our way to SK. We were able to get a seat (booth) right away and fill our bellies with great food. I loved the decor. Modern, warm & welcoming. The empty growlers with lights around the booths are a nice touch as is all the bar taps hanging from the ceiling circling the bar. Whenever a server comes to the table and says this is so & so - they are training today, you automatically get a tad concerned about how your food and/or service may turn out. But there were no issues and everything was spot on. Between the five of us we had burgers, chicken tacos, fries, huevos rancheros and hand made guacamole and chips, everything was super tasty and delicious. And quick! A great stop and place we will visit again. And they have a super cool patio in the front which I imagine is hopping in the summer! Happy to learn we also have a Local Public Eatery in Calgary! read more

After visiting the Medalta complex in Medicine Hat, an amazing museum and working studio we stopped in at the Local for dinner. Well, really it was also a matter of sampling the local brews. Here we found a great selection of beer on tap. For a pub like atmosphere that food selection was quit good although perhaps not as adventurous as some brew pubs have become in resently, however the number of dishes was much broader than a brew pubs usual menu. It took some time to look through the options and decide. I went for The Super Freeken Salad and enjoyed it a great deal. read more

Great food at this busy and happening restaurant in Medicine Hat. We went mid week for dinner and drinks. Listened to the live band while we waited for our food. I had the curry rice bowl which was packed with flavor and a good portion of chicken. The curry temperature was spot on and the fresh greens, including cilantro,were a nice bright addition to the meal. Good service and fun atmosphere. Check it out read more

Local is a great place to have drinks and dine if you're downtown. They do have gluten free options .

I was highly disappointed when they didn't give my table any straws it really was such a sad day and I wanted the best. They also refused to serve us chocolate milk because they didn't have any, you how they made me feel? Sad and depressed! That's not how u treat your customers. They should've left and got us some like geez it's not that hard. read more

Great burgers, great service, and very generous beer pours. Accommodated our vegan needs as well.

Great food and patio in the Medicine Hat core. I had the fish tacos at the Local and they were delicious. As they were served individually I asked the waitress how many I should have in order to be full and she suggested 3. The three tacos were about an appropriately sized meal and were very delicious. After I had finished all 3 I definitely wanted a fourth but I'm glad I hadn't ordered one. Everyone else I was with also enjoyed their meals. Service was excellent as the waitress was very helpful and quite outgoing. I'll be back! read more

I ate here for lunch today for the first time. We arrived at about 12:45 and still had to wait a bit for a table - good sign if the place is busy. I had the Press Burger with Cheddar. The burger was obviously freshly made in house, and was very juicy and delicious. It came out a little pink inside which I love! The cheddar was actual real cheese, not the processed junk. The bun was a soft egg bread roll, and it held together right up to the last bite. The fries were tasty, although they came out tepid and a little soggy. The atmosphere is good - friendly but not too loud. Good rock music in the background. Service was friendly, and the food came out pretty quick. I will definitely return. Frequently. P.S. I heard a rumour that the owners were thinking of changing the name to "The Salt Lick." Gross! Please don't! read more

It's a very modern urban lounge in Medicine Hat where people go to see and be seen. The place is always busy. Nice outdoor patio but dark inside with brick and several TV screens. Limited menu that focuses on appetizers and burgers. They only serve 14 ounce sleeves of beer but charge the price of a pint. I almost wrote the place off then my tuna filet sandwich arrived. It was excellent with a lot of stuffings, avocado, tomato, lettuce, etc.. The garden salad was also great with radishes, tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese, mixed greens with arugula lettuce. Too bad the menu wasn't larger. Busy place. read more

The best Eggs Benedict I have ever had and the garlic smashbrowns are absolutely delicious. I have came 3 weekends in a row and every time it is top notch. I now it's a lounge but they have the best brunch in town, maybe even all of southern Alberta. Highly recommended! read more

A friend and I have visited this restaurant several times over several years and every visit has been enjoyable. This time around their Hand-pressed Sliders were a hit, the juicy patties amped by secret sauce and grilled onion with just the right amount of char. The yam fries with parmesan were good although I didn't care for the truffle oil that topped the accompanying lemon mayo. The see-and-be-seen-vibe and hip energy of staff and clientele on the large rock and wood patio was fun. Staff were attentive and positive. read more

Wow, very unexpected find. Great food, not regular pub fare as was expected. We came in as a group, and they were very busy, but they took care of us. Food was very good. Good selection at the bar to. read more

We went with a group after work one day. The drinks were pretty good, but the food was only average. They also got quite a few drink and food orders wrong and brought our food to another table that hadn't been waiting nearly as long. After we were done eating it literally took over an hour to get the bill because they had to split it up. read more

Nice place with a good outdoor patio located right downtown. Food and beers place with some interesting items on the menu. Loved the burger and beers options my only reason for a 4 star is that there is not as many local beers on the menu and none of them are brewed on site. I was told there was but when I got there nope. Good place friendly staff a little slow on a Thursday night but weather and outdoor seating turned out to be a great evening. read more

Easily the best restaurant in the Hat. The burgers are delicious, there are micro beers revolving on tap, and the yam fries are amazing! If you're in the Hat, check out the Local. read more

One of the best places to eat in Medicine Hat. You can feel comfortable having a business meeting here because the food is constantly good and the service is great. Try the sweet potato fries with the truffle mail dip, it is one of my favorites. read more

Drove in to town late on a Saturday and found this place on Yelp. Food was great, service was a little slow - but the people watching was fantastic. If Medicine Hat had a Jersey Shore they would be at Local on a Saturday night between 9 and 10. If the fish taco was a ten, the chicken tacos were only a seven. read more

Really enjoyed the veggie burger, salad and yam fries. Not the usual fare. Nice atmosphere. Definitely would return.

This is definitely one of our favourites here in Medicine Hat. We love the live music on the patio. My favourite food items are the veggie burger, the crispy chicken sandwich (ask for it grilled if you are feeling healthier), and edamame. read more

One of the best bars in the Hat. The service is generally really good, the decor and outdoor patio area are well kept and clean. The food menu is limited but what they do, they do well. Often have local musicians playing which adds to the atmosphere. read more

Best food, worst service. Takes 5 minutes too long for waitress to notice new tables & the food wait is ridiculous.

Went to Local for Fathers Day and service from the waitress was great. The food took forever and when my steak came it was cold and I sent it back and it's like blue rare and I ordered it medium rare. 2nd time it come out still horrible and all I eat was fries and toast for Father's Day. read more

Local is a laid-back place that has a traditional pub feel and offers fantastic food and beverages. I've been a handful of times with my husband, and we have always enjoyed whatever we've ordered. As a vegetarian, I found their veggie burger exceptional, and particularly enjoyed the colours, flavours, and textures of their veggie burger. Additionally, the sauce pushed it beyond your average vegetarian fare. read more
