I love that this…read morespot is so NOT St Albert and gives you a different option than the 7000 Irish pubs on St Albert Trail. There was a lady on stage playing some solo acoustic music, her catalog of songs was all over the map and she added a ton to the early evening ambiance. Our waitress Amy was fantastic. We had appies and drinks... the food we had was standard pub fare, but I was happy to see they support local and had Endeavour beer as an option (no taps, just bottles and cans here). Heather had a couple of White Claws. Prices were more than reasonable and it was just a fun way to start the evening. I don't see this place scoring points with the pretentious crowd in St Albert, but folks that love live music and dive bars will like it just fine! HUGE bonus points for them having the old Bruin Inn sign on the walls. That's some nostalgia right there!

It felt like walking into a biker bar -- there were a bunch of regulars drinking after work and they didn't seem too happy to see newcomers in Covid masks (kept 'em on as we walked to our table because that's the provincial policy). Staff weren't masked. Good service, though.

We came here to celebrate my daughter's birthday, cause she loves shrimp…read more We made a reservation and I'm glad we did because it was pretty busy and surprisingly loud. The atmosphere is a bit different than I remember in recent years. It is definitely geared more towards families than a romantic night out. Not necessarily a bad thing just different. There was a great kids menu, which I had never noticed before. My daughter ended up ordering fried fish funny enough but it was her birthday so she could order what she wanted. I had shrimp 3 ways, garlic, bbq, and classic. All were very good. Hubs ordered the lobster pasta which I tasted and it was amazing! The biscuits were sinfully delicious as always and we each had at least 3. I had a white wine, which I loved and immediately went out and bought a bottle. The server was amazing and really made my daughter feel special. She got the super fancy Sunday at the end and everyone sang happy birthday. Good food great service.

DO NOT kid yourselves, this is high quality dining at local, reasonable prices. We ordered the herbed chicken and a half rack of ribs and the spicy garlic butter prawns. We asked our fantastic server if the chef could split our order into 2 plates. She runs away and comes back in 2 minutes saying the chef would love to do that for us. Awesome! We're happy. I just kind of expected 2 bar style plates with our food lumped onto it. OMG! Was I blown away! The plating was what you would expect in a high end restaurant, not a Bar and Grill! The Keg, Chop, etc, beware. This hot new Steakhouse just might have your number. Our chicken was cooked to perfection, while being one of the juiciest chicken dishes I've ever had. The only thing keeping the chicken together was the perfect Grill marks! I'm saying this was superior chef skills. Veggies, perfectly grilled and just a touch crunchy. Perfect! Mashed potatoes, were amazing. Perfect garlic flavor. Just a touch on the cool side, so that's my only critique. However the hot gravy on the side solved that pretty quick. The prawns were still hot, perfect texture and the spice was exactly what it promised, spicy and garlic, without being too spicy. Brought out the depths of the sweetness of the prawns beautifully. Ribs! I almost forgot the ribs. Lol. Juicy, very well cooked with a nice sweet BBQ sauce. A touch fatty, but I like mine well done and forgot to ask. Otherwise, amazing. Dessert, White Chocolate Brownie. Sadly it fell victim to our spoons as soon as it hit the table, but I managed 2 pictures before it's demise. Think of a brownie, then add coconut, then add ice cream, with a pinch of WTF was that awesomeness and multiply that by 100! With an expertly drizzled combination of chocolate and white chocolate sauce on the plate. I wish you could have eaten it! All in all, absolutely, 100%, recommend this place to anyone looking for an amazing meal. Hands down, you will not be disappointed.

It was quite full when we got there and quite noisy. Not with music just with chatter. Bad accoustics? Took forever for someone to even take our drink order and many tables were waiting for service. Food took about as long as expected. Food was good. I had the chicken burger which was freshly fried. Lots of lettuce and pickles. Bun was not soggy. Presentation was excellent. I also tried the sesame rice which I was surprised to really enjoy. Cesar salad had a healthy portion of bacon and sliced parmesan as well. Portions were appropriate for the price too. So other than slow slow service this place was an excellent choice.

This use to be the old Beer Hunter but never went there so can't say how much has been changed…read moreinside. We came here on a Wed for half price wings ($6.50). They were ok, comparable to Brewsters but prefer places that charge 45-49 cents per wing. I also ordered the calamari ($13.99) and me and my friends were very disappointed in them. I'd say they were more like fried popcorn pieces with lots of batter, way over fried and I would never guess it was calamari. Definitely not worth the price and wouldn't recommend them. The plus side was they have many different beers and the service was awesome. Maybe will have to try some other items on the menu if ever go back

I've tried the pizza bread, nachos and both Cajun chicken and grilled cheese sandwiches, all of which were tasty and all of which were in the $6-9 range. The beer is cheap and cold, although I'll never forget the conversation when I first sat down: Waitress: "What'll you have to drink?" Me: "What kind of beers do you have on tap?" Waitress: "Canadian." Me: "I'll have a Canadian." Service here is very good. The ladies who have served me remember my name, and are always warm. Mary in particular is a totally amazing server, and one of my favourite waitresses in the city - I look forward to seeing her every time I go! Make no mistake though, these servers know how rough around the edges their clientele can be, and they don't take crap. I can tell. Karaoke nights are hilarious and just as unpretentious as the rest of the Hawkeye's experience. Go on a Thursday-Saturday night and find out for yourself! I'm always enjoy my visits here; great little spot in downtown Edmonton.

This is such an odd little place. It's barely a block off the really trendy part of Jasper Ave,…read moreclose to trendy spots like The Hat. It draws some of the same crowd in as those more popular bars, but it also has a real mix of people filling up the tables and booths. It's a lower-scale place that's part restaurant, part bar. The pizza was surprisingly VERY yummy here! Although they don't have very many beers on tap (I think it was a total of 1), we still had a really fun night with a big group of friends here. Out waitress (I forget her name, but everyone else seemed to know her) was fantastic. She was friendly and attentive (which was very impressive given how busy the place was). I would come by again for the pizza and a beer next time I'm in the mood for a very laid-back evening.
