    Bad pool tables, really bad cues. Terrible management. The worst beer selection. Never going back again.

    I had plans to meet an old university friend off-campus the other day, but what with the weather…read morebeing what it was (brrrrr!), she wasn't too keen on walking somewhere off campus (she works for the U of A). I concurred and we decided on Dewey's. Food, drink, and smack dab in the middle of campus. Perfect. I got there a bit early (yay me!) after practically sprinting from the train station to the pub. Do I call it a pub? It's kind of one part cafe, one part pub, one part pool hall, one part study hall, one part music venue. It's Dewey's. We met on a Monday evening so it wasn't too busy. A couple of guys shooting on the tables and an intense philosophical discussion going on across the room. The best part about Dewey's is that is caters to a student budget. My large hot chocolate was only $2. (A small is $1.75!) That's about half what a HC costs at my usual coffee shop haunts. Although I didn't grab any food while I was here last time, my recommendation is the sweet potato fries. They're not actually that much healthier for you than regular fries, especially when you factor in the dip (so delicious!), but they're damn tasty and the perfect sharer. I would definitely come by more often, but as a not-real-student anymore I can't get wireless here. Worth it for the inexpensive food, beer and coffees, though. Five stars if I were in school, three stars as an alum.

    I miss the old PowerPlant of years gone by... but Dewey's is an okay campus licensed coffee…read moreshop/bar and if that is what you're looking for, then it's a fine venue. Food and beverage is inexpensive but is not particularly outstanding. Selection is limited and wait staff are slow to deal with tables particularly when it is busy. That said they have improved their technology in recent years so that helps a bit. I do like the fact that they have a number of non-alcoholic coffee shop beverages. The noise level can be frustrating particularly when they have live music (the accoustics are not great). The seating configurations can be awkward depending on the size of your group. The upstairs area has some more comfortable seating and the pool area is pretty open which is nice. The washrooms are accessible via stairs, and are nothing special. I would go most anywhere off campus instead of Dewey's if given the time and the chance, but it's nice to have a licensed facility in this part of campus anyway.

    The Staff here are great. Five stars for them. Food is great. I just wish they had more cocktails…read moreor a cocktail list. Everything else is Peachy for a neighbourhood pub. And the karaoke capital of Alberta.

    Warning ! Stadium prices for Bud Light, Coors light bottles and pints!! The drinks here are very…read morevery very expensive. $9 dollars for a Bud Light on a Tuesday evening! No food specials or drink specials. And the bartenders didn't know the prices -- when you ask them -- hey how much is a Bud Light? They actually have to look it up on their screen. They don't know the prices of their own drinks where they work. Very strange. The average price for a Bud Light or pretty much any beer, whether it's a pint or a bottle on Whyte Avenue or downtown is $5 bucks. Some places you may pay up to $6.50 maybe $7 dollars tops like at pricier places like Sherlock Holmes or Kelly's Pub but places sych as: Hudson's, The Pint, Black dog O'Byrne's, Leopolds, Cabin, Greta, The Local, Brown's social hall, Original Joe's, Earl's, 1st Rnd, Canadian brewhouse, Canadian icehouse, Cactus club, & MKT, etc. You're not paying more than $4-7 bucks and maybe $7-10 bucks if you're getting 24 ounce pint, a tankered or Stein or an imported beer with a very high alcohol percentage of 7%-9%. And that's every day all day including Friday and Saturday nights, etc. So at this neighbourhood bar on a Tuesday evening it's double the cost of everywhere else in the city. Bud Light with a tip was $11 that's more than the Commonwealth Stadium at football games! At the Commonwealth, you can get a big tall boy can fat Can for $10.75 -- and a regular sized pint or can of Coors light Bud Light, Pilsner, Miller, etc., for $8.75
