Great spot for brunch. I had the chicken and waffles sandwich and it was delicious! A massive piece of fried chicken, bacon, egg, and cheese sandwhiched between two big waffles. Needless to say this was difficult and to eat (i used a knife and fork) and very filling. My boyfriend loved the bbq brisket and egg sandwhich. We also had yummy mimosas for $6 and the service was fast and efficient. read more

Trolley 5 - Bbq Brisket and Egg Sandwhich - Canadian (New) Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

I'm not entirely sure I've come to terms with a multi-level brew pub existing in Calgary yet. I've been, I've enjoyed food and I've enjoyed beers - many, many beers. What a grand eve it was. Thinking back to the Melrose days, my oh my, Calgary, how far we've come. I'm calling it now - I think Trolley 5 has what it takes to become THE spot in Calgary. With two levels of south facing patios and walls that open the full distance, Trolley 5 will mix up a group beer hall hangout session with some sunshine and 17th Ave people watching on the nice days, and in winter will be a warm and cozy brew pub the will still let in the sunshine from the few hours of daylight we'll have. If you feel like getting your beer nerd on, downstairs is where you need to be. It's quieter so pull of a seat at the bar - their basement bartenders (maybe all the bartenders, can't confirm) really know their stuff! Being the hot day that it was, I fell in love with their First Crush White IPA which they say "like your first crush, this beer is unforgettable." Pretty true, I'd say - but what they forget to mention is that enough of these will definitely aid in you forgetting everything else. I mean, I know I ate here twice throughout the evening. Pretty sure I went with the Cobb Salad for lunch and stayed through until a Kentucky burger (buttermilk fried chicken, back bacon, pepper jack, avocado) for dinner. I liked them both. I wish I could give you a more detailed review on this portion of the evening, but First Crush says otherwise. I went on opening day and managed to snag a free tour. They're typically $15, but come with a flight and a pint... so basically if you're committed to drinking $15 worth of beer you get a free tour. It's definitely worth it to get to know the brewery and hear their stories on the beer. Craft beer is exactly that - a craft, and they're happy to share it with you. Their craft and their beer. The Growler train is a tonne of fun to watch going around. Plus, growler fills are only $12. I'll be making a bicycle trip for some takeaway soon! read more

I think it's hilarious that Trolley 5 Restaurant & Brewery isn't officially open yet and there are 4 (soon to be 5) reviews up on Yelp. Trolley 5 is a gargantuan addition to the 17th ave scene. The three floors of space mean that there's plenty of space to meet with friends or go for dinner with the family (kids are welcome until 9 pm as per AGLC regulations). While each floor has large bar area with plenty of taps for 'beers to come', each differs in style. The first thing you notice when you walk in the main level front door is the super cool, mesmerizing overhead conveyor belt upon which empty growlers weave their way throughout the main floor seating area before disappearing to the basement level where all the cool kids go (because there's a hot bartender...I'm looking at you beardy man!). The main bar is situated along the far wall and the seating is comfortable and not too packed together. The street level patio area will be the perfect spot to sip beer while people watching. Downstairs, there's a large U shaped bar with seating and the surrounding tables. It's dark, it's a bit quieter, and it has peek a boo windows into the ladies toilets. Don't worry, you're not exposed...but you do have a view of the brewing tanks! The very top floor is more of a 'dining area' with large yellow padded booths and a gorgeous bar-style seating area overlooking the avenue. It's the perfect place for people watching without having to inhale the smoke from ground floor level sidewalk smokers. I'm not going to comment on the menu, so far as to say it is quite extensive with the most expected gastropub dishes available (burgers, pizza, poutine). I am predicting that the house favourites will be the more meaty smoke house options like the 12 hour brisket and wonderful pulled pork. I like that Alberta grown/produced items are marked as 'AB' on the menu and that they already have two mealshare items. Last, but certainly not least, let's talk beer. There is currently no beer brewing at T5 but the owners, PJ Hereaux L'Heureux, Ernie Tsu, and Wayne Leong were able to rent brewing space at Tool Shed Brewery in order to brew Trolley 5's very first beers; the Derailed Pale Ale, and First Crush IPA. They were also able to collaborate with Parallel 49 to create Cowboy Crusher (It's a Stampede thing) and local brewers Last Best Brewing to create the Downtown Dunkel Dunkelweizen. So far I've liked what I've seen and consumed at Trolley 5 and I can't wait to visit again. read more

Opening day, the place was packed! Our servers were great, but we had to wait for drinks multiple times, a manager saw this and came over right away and hooked us up, not only with another round but with appies. It was a very cool gesture. I loved sitting on the patio, they have a variety of seating options there... Low tables, high tops, bar, etc. Lost a star for the wings. They are super tiny, like seriously tiny. It made me feel bad eating them... Went back Sat night and the place once again was packed. I think this place will do ok, great layout for mingling. Music was spot on. read more

Awesome new Brewpub on the Red Mile! Locally sourced ingredients for unique dishes make this addition to Calgarys food scene a must-try. All your classic favorites with on-site smoked meats: Brisket, chicken, pork loin, pulled pork & ribs. What note could you ask for...? Beer! The unique and original west-coast style brews really set Trolley 5 apart. The hoppy Derailed Pale Ale and the First Crush white IPA are amazing new beers that are made on location and really worth stopping by to enjoy. The Stampede session ale, Cowboy Crusher, is the perfect beer to pair with a long visit to the patio... Although it's difficult to stop at one! Trolley 5 has burst onto Calgary's already competitive and diverse food scene with a unique mantra: Born & Raised. After visiting and testing what they offer, it's clear that Trolley 5 will take its rightful place as an icon of this amazing city. read more

Derek at Trolley 5 set me up well with a keg, etc. for a party I was holding over the holiday. It was super busy, but he pulled it all together for me -- and chilled the keg, too. On top of that, the beer and food here are delicious! This is now my go-to watering-hole, and my go-to for beer kegs for parties, whenever I am back in Calgary. Top notch! read more

So my first impression is, cute venue great location but I probably won't go back until until they work out all the kinks. So here's the thing, we went on a Tuesday for lunch after their grand opening and They were pretty much out of everything! Most of the beers on tap, ran out of soup (before 12:30pm), no bacon (which was supposed to be on the burger). Our server was pretty bad as well, she got our orders all wrong and the manager didn't do anything to compensate for the mistake. Food was mediocre bar food. The burgers were super sloppy and messy to eat. Here's the kicker, we got the beer special for the day which was supposed to be $5 but on the bill we were charged something else. By then, my party was pretty fed up, we just paid the bill and GTFO. read more

Not good...not good at all. The service was good, but for the prices being charged, I would expect a much higher level of execution on the quality of the food. We ordered the BBQ Platter, and while the sausage was good, it was overshadowed by the dry chicken, dry pork, and poorly prepared brisket. There was no smoke flavor on the food, and it appeared to have been prepared in the oven and not a smoker. The dessert was also lacking flavor. The gelato was excellent, but not produced in house. The cobbler and buckle were lacking flavor and while visually appealing, were disappointing flavor wise. I won't go back. Great location, but there are many other places with great beer and better quality of food. read more

Came to Trolley 5 on Sunday August 21st approx 7:30pm. Very busy place but we got seated immediately and luckily got a table on the patio - score - perfect patio weather!! Quick service. Waitress did a good job recommending menu items to us (we told her it was our first time). We ordered the 2 meat BBQ platter $26, A lot of food, excellent value, and very tasty. We had the brisket and ribs. For sides we chose the mac and cheese, coleslaw and an additional order of corn bread. Server brought over a rack of 5 different sauces - I tried 4 of [them (didn't try the mustard sauce - just not my thing). The "Asian type" sauce was my favorite. (Chipotle sauce was just too spicy for my taste). I will definitely return, and probably have the BBQ plate again, although the menu is large and varied. The dishes I saw going by our table looked good including the tacos and the pizza. I would only make 1 recommendation ..... after reading the FaceBook reviews I decided to call for a reservation. The phone number on the website and the FB page are someone's personal cell phone - and the message does not indicate that it is for Trolley 5. I called 3 times to try to hear the message properly because I think it was recorded in a very busy and loud kitchen and I just couldn't properly identify who this phone belonged to. i didn't leave a phone number because I assumed it to be a wrong number. I would recommend changing the outgoing voice message on that cell phone. read more

I've been to Trolley 5 a couple of times now and I really LOVE it. I'm disappointed to give it 4 stars but I had to take one away for an event i recently held there that was not up to par. First, the manager there is amazing. He always makes a point of talking to his customers and making sure they are having a good time. The wait staff is also amazing. They are quick and friendly. The food is pretty decent and the actual look of the place is pretty great. On Mondays they have $3 Pints and $7 ribs. The ribs were super delicious and well... $3 pints are self explanatory. Now the only thing I have an issues with (And why I won't have another event there) is that I was told our group would have Audio/ Visual set up and I made it clear we do presentations to our member base when booking. When we arrived for our meeting we were told that there was no audio, that visual only worked if we had mac products, and we were put into the downstairs bar by the brewery where it was incredibly loud. No-one could hear our guest speaker. I'll go again for drinks and food but I'd skip doing future events with them. read more

I think they're still struggling with getting the seating worked out. Tables make the place a little hard to manoeuvre. The wait staff trip over the rules on occasion (e.g. can a kid be on the patio?) The beer is uniformly good. What I had of the food was tasty though I haven't yet eaten a meal there. The staff are very accommodating and pleasant. The space is very nicely done up. They have lots of other people's taps and beers. This will be a better review once some of these initial glitches are smoothed out. read more

Tried this place for the first time over the weekend .....and I can DIG IT! I love to people watch - so I was ever so pleased to snag a spot on the upstairs patio. It's so cool to enjoy a meal overlooking the hustle and bustle on 17th avenue... can't wait to do it again! We had the beer nuts, two chicken burgers, an order of the jalapeno corn and some french fries. The corn was nothing to write home about but we really enjoyed everything else. The beer nuts especially - YUM! The girl who helped us was super friendly and the overall vibe of the place is really welcoming and fun. I look forward to my next visit. This is great place to hang out. read more

Stumbled upon this place while walking around. It was pretty busy and looked like a fun/cool environment so we walked in. We were quickly seated at a table. Honestly, our waitress was not the best unfortunately. She was nice, but it took forever just for us to even get a glass of water (which wasn't even cold btw). My husband then ordered a Bloody Caesar and it took forever to get this 1 drink as well. The drink was watered down due to fact that it was sitting at the bar for so long (we saw it sitting there for at least 10-15 minutes). We ordered our food and it took what seemed like FOREVERRRRR to get it (again... at this point we weren't really surprised). There was a huge delay in kitchen (all we ordered was a pizza)... about 25-30 minutes of waiting for our food we were apologetically told there was a delay in the kitchen... the manager then covered our bill. The pizza we ordered the Donair Pizza. Honestly, I love pizza and I didn't love this. Maybe it's because I didn't know it would be sweet. Wasn't a huge fan, but it wasn't necessarily bad... just not to my taste preference. I only at 1.5 pieces and we took the rest back to the hotel. We loved puneet the manager. He gave my husband a couple of complimentary tastings of beer. He was very accommodating. Because of him, we would come back and give it a second try! Overall: Fun, entertaining, lively environment. It is loud though. read more

As a newly opened brewery this was a must go to on our trip to Calgary. They had their lager on special for $5 so we all decided to try that. Unfortunately, it was a bad decision as it was extremely tasteless. I was expecting a lot from their beer so I tried the pale ale, this was definitely a better choice. It is very unfortunate though that they have such a poor choice of beer as their special as this is what people will judge their beer from. We also ordered the nachos, these were tasty and the large portion were great as a snack for 4 people. Unfortunately, this brewery didn't blow me away and I wouldn't be in a rush back to it. read more

Fantastic addition to 17th Avenue. When Melrose disappeared, there was a bit of a vacuum on the streets of Calgary. Luckily, Trolley 5 came along and made it all better. Extensive beer selection. The food isn't bad either! The BBQ ribs were delish. Love the open concept. Cheers to many great memories here at Trolley 5. read more

Tried the Cranberry Wit and the Blueberry, both were pretty decent beers. Otherwise though, we didn't get much of a chance to sample their beer selection today, for some reason they were out of most beers. The Pot of Pickles was a variety of pickled veg, including beets, green beans, asparagus, garlic and cucumbers. I really liked it but my hubby was expecting just standard pickles. read more

Awesome beer, great food and the different rooms make you feel like you belong here. I will be back!!! read more

'A bit disappointing' is what I told my co-worker, Ernie, when he asked me how my night was at Trolley 5. I came here with Seano and a group of other friends on Saturday night anticipating a good night after some positive reviews from other friends. First off, the food was delicious - I had the Fried Chicken burger and smashed it down and all my friends meals looked good too. What let the place down was the service - a couple of us had already finished our first drink and were onto a second before others had even received their first one and this was a trend that continued through out the night. People were constantly without a drink for a good 10-15 minutes at a time. Also, for a brewery they didn't have about 2-3 of the main beers on tap and the ones they did have weren't the best tasting. Seano couldn't even finish his second pint and had to move on to ceasers and he'll drink any kind of beer. So all in all, good food but poor service and beer. Atmosphere, setting, price etc. are all decent. read more

We were in Calgary and stopped in for a couple of beers. The Porter was incredible, the Pale Ale was very good, and the Black IPA was much better than I would have expected, We also ordered the Salt & Pepper Squid to munch on and it was fantastic. Service was great as well, we sat at the bar and our bartender was awesome... attentive and engaging even though he was extremely busy. It is a very busy, congested spot... loud with a younger crowd. Our only gripe was that it was difficult navigating the crowd to get to the restrooms downstairs. We will be back! read more

Kicking ass! These guys have made a great location even better. Very excited to see how things turn out here. Try the burger! read more

Trolley 5 - Canadian (New) Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

We called on a Saturday to see if we were allowed to bring our 5 month old baby and they were more than okay with that. They suggested we make a reservation though because after 2 they get pretty busy. Upon arriving we were given a table at the back of the restaurant where there was no one, it was quiet and perfect for our little guy. They seem to put all the families with young kids there as a few more people with infants showed up as well. We had heard lots of complaints about the service being poor at this place, but we did not experience that at all. The floor manager even stopped by a few times to check in on us and gave us the suggestion that if we get our food to go that we should ask for some brioche buns to have it with when we get home - awesome idea! Our server was friendly and polite, and sometimes a bit out of it - but it definitely wasn't poor service. To start we had the assorted pickles - it had onions, pickles, jalapenos and mushrooms - super yummy. We had a few beers and shared the meat platter for 4 - which was more than enough meat for 4 people! We will definitely return for their seasonal beer release and to try more menu items. read more

I'm giving this place a 4 rather than a 3 because the service, prices, and ambience trumped the food. The beer was quite good, but a little too hoppy for my liking. We did end up taking a growler home to enjoy the Conductor Lager and it was good. The food was mediocre. We went for brunch and I wasn't blown away with the breakfast tacos. It's a pretty simple dish that didn't have anything very exciting with it. A nice avocado cream sauce or refried beans would be tasty. Now, the ambiance, service, and prices were great! I made a reservation requesting a high chair and it was there waiting. My party consisted of 6 adults and 5 kids under 7. The staff was great in accommodating us by putting us in the back area so the kids could play and run around! It's always nice to find a local restaurant that is accommodating families with young children, because guess what? We like to go out too! The pricing was great also. I find it ridiculous when restaurants charge you an arm and a leg for a cup of coffee or tea, but here it was $2.75 for each and the coffee was bottomless. And he service was also great. Our sever was very patient with our group and always had a smile on her face when she came to the table. It is experiences like these that will bring me back. And although the food was mediocre, I won't hold that against the restaurant! read more

This spot has it all! Good BBQ, great beers, and all the sports you can watch! Seriously, there's 6 TV's on the first floor! I haven't even ventured to the upstairs or downstairs yet. I particularly love the fact that they're willing to change a TV to college football from that good 'ol hockey game. Gotta see how the college football teams are doing even if I'm 3,000 kilometers away! The atmosphere is great, it's always a "hop"ing spot. *ba dum chih* since they brew their own beers! Get it? Anyway, gotta try the beer flights here to see what you like. The food is pretty good too. I love how the nachos come out on a huge tray. It can easily feed three people. The beef brisket here is the only spot I've found in calgary that is like brisket from Texas. You gotta try it! Also gotta mention the trolly of growlers that moves above your head. It's an awesome way to grab your attention to taking some of the great brews home with ya. Come on a weekend and you went be disappointed. Just make sure you have a reservation or you'll be waiting for awhile. read more

I've been here a few times. Service is always good. Happy hour prices are awesome. $4 for a beer? The environment is lively and great if you are looking to do some people watching on 17th Ave. I enjoyed the Hef, but didn't like any of the other beers I tried. It's a bit annoying that the restaurant is always out of beers that I want to try. I tried a chicken burger and a pulled pork sandwich. The food is okay, small portion though and average in taste. read more

Trolley 5 - Canadian (New) Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

Worst first experience ever. Went with 4 friends and was told we had a table. Go upstairs and wait like the signs say to and a server comes up to seat us. As we were walking to our table another server cut off our group and rushed her group passed us. Her group took our table and our server didn't say anything about it he just walked away. So I told her that was our table and she replied with "you snooze you lose". Good way to greet a new customer. We won't be back. read more

The bar itself is nice with big windows that open to let in fresh air. The sandwich that I had was decent, but the salad was sopping wet with dressing. However, the biggest disappointment was the drink selection. They were out of at least one of their own beers. Then, they had a list of maybe 10 or 12 rotating taps and they were out of at least 3 of them. Every time I ordered, the waitress would say that she was either out of something or had to check if she was out of it and would ask me what my second choice was if they were out. It is an annoying an inefficient system. If you constantly have this problem, then maybe instead of printing out little sheets of paper with the rotating taps and paper clipping them into the menus, you should get some sort of board on the wall that can be easily changed when you run out. read more

If you're looking for really good beer at a reasonable price I think this is one of the best places in Calgary. Great big patio, good vibe, cool music. For me, it's a nice change of pace from some of the pub/beerhall chains that are all over. One thing that sticks out is the exceptional customer service. Any server I've had has been really great and the managers go way above and beyond. Always a good experience here. Only downside is it is sometimes too busy to get in! read more

Went for friends and fam night before they officially opened and I was blown away. The interior style of the place is awesome - super cool setting and lots to look at. We were under the understanding that the menu was still a work in progress, so that's what we expected and thought it was pretty good! Since then, things seem to have taken a turn. Beer quality remains high, which is a plus; but it seems like the chef or kitchen staff have lost their drive or something - food quality has gone down. Disappointing, to say the least. I haven't gone back recently to see if there have been any improvements, so I remain open minded! read more

My first experience here was excellent! I also discovered the First Crush White IPA, which is easily my most favorite beer on the planet. I raved about Trolley 5 to my boyfriend and thought he should check it out. So, this leads to my second experience... This could have turned into a 1 star review as it took well over a half hour before my boyfriend and I got our food, my order was incorrect, and no one came to check on us during our meal. (I originally ordered a Pig and Pineapple, but was served meat lovers...I am not a meat lovers fan...at all.) During the end of our meal finally one of the waiters came by and asked how we were doing and if he could grab me another beer, at that point I expressed my disappointment and showed him my uneaten pizza. He asked me what he could do to fix the situation and I explained I felt that was managements decision. I was expecting some discount or a lame excuse as to why I was served the wrong thing. BUT the waiter took the initiative to take the pizza and beer off the bill without excuse and thanked us for our business. Eric, I appreciate your outstanding customer service and you did the right thing, I do not want you to go unnoticed for it. You are the sole reason this review is a 5 star and not a 1 star, Thank you again and we will see you again! read more

The staff is amazing, I've been going here with my boyfriend for quite some time now and they remember our names and have our drink orders ready when we sit. The food is amazing, if they think they can do better they will go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable and they getting your money's worth. They have an amazing happy hour special and food specials, what else can you ask for other than friendly staff, a warm environment and amazing food! read more

I didn't want my meal at Trolley 5 to end last night. We went on a Tuesday night with half-price BBQ during Stampede. Unfortunately, by the time we arrived there, the restaurant was out of brisket. I had the pulled pork sandwich instead and tried all of the sauces. So, so good. The bf got the ribs, which were spiced in a way that I had not tasted before but which was really good. Our server Paul was great, very personable and made good suggestions when my heart was broken over the lack of brisket. I knew Calgary would have good food (I was visiting from San Francisco) and this place proved me right. read more

It was ok. Food is marginal. Service is excellent, wing night is a good flare, $0.25 wings. Had the ribs they were very dry, server said to order them. Was very disappointed. Good beer selection. It was busy in there for a wed night. 17th is dying a slow death as the high end places are all empty. read more

Checked this place out tonight with my boyfriend and two friends. We planned to have a night out for food and drinks. However, I probably won't come back anytime soon. Wasn't very impressed that they ran out of everything.. Like beers and cocktails. The waitress said that they were able to make basic Mojitos, Caesar's, and other cocktails.. Was hoping to order a Mojito but they ran out of mint? So I stuck with water since the options for beer and cocktails were very limited. Which is pretty disappointing. Their Sunday special was all you can eat bbq.. And our waitress told us to just ignore all the specials (I guess they ran out or something). The specials she offered us was a Pulled Pork Sandwich, which we ended up ordering. It wasn't great. It was very bland and missing sauce so the sandwich was very dry. We ordered the nachos which was OKAY but over cooked. When we finally decided to order more mains the waitress told us that they stopped serving mains and that we were only able to order appetizers and pizza. We asked when did they stop serving mains and why it wasn't mentioned to us til now (10:02pm) she said that they stopped at 10:00pm and that someone was supposed to tell us right when we got seated.. Which didn't happen. The waitress was very rude when that happened and snapped at us. She did check with the kitchen to see if we were able to order our mains, and they made an exception. My friend ordered the Mac and cheese $14 and I ordered a side of Mac and cheese $4 .. And let's just say if you're going to order the Mac and cheese, save yourself the extra $10 and just order the side. When the two came out, the portions were the same size, just different plating. I won't be returning anytime soon. I wanted a night out with my friends.. Where we can enjoy the food, drinks and company of eachother But the food was mediocre and the selection on both food and drinks were very limited. read more

From the ashes of Melrose cafe Trolley 5 was born. It has this very modern industrial look which creates a very warm and inviting atmosphere. One of the really great things about the place is they brew there own beer and the few beers I have tried are amazing and a big reason to try this place out. The food we tried was all very tasty with the BBQ and the nachos being the big hits for every one. The BBQ is as good as you will get anywhere as in the city. I have been to Trolley 5 three times now twice for lunch and once for evening drinks with friends. I always found the service amazing and helpful. I do like the main level bar but the basement houseshoe bar is also amazing that had video screens showing old 90;s music video. I would suggest talking a stroll and tying some of their fine beers. read more

We went in with a group of friends. We were downstairs on the bottom floor since we had a group of more than 15. The area is much nicer than when it was Melrose, but the low ceiling gives it a bit of a cramped feeling. Regardless, being downstairs worked great for our group since we weren't bothered with as much noise and music is if we had been upstairs. Our server and the bartender were amazing; super friendly and knowledgeable. Brad, our bartender, took us on a quick brewery tour and knew all about the beer and the brewing process. We were allowed separate checks and the server told each person that gratuity was included. I've encountered a lot of places that don't mention that. I'm sorry I can't remember our servers name but she was great. The overall place is very nice and relaxed. The second floor is nice and allows for great people watching along 17th ave. The third floor is nice and large with a unique look. The entire front opens up on nice days to let in lots of fresh air and make you feel like there's a patio on the third floor as well. The food was a little disappointing I'm afraid. We had the Tuesday special which was the $10 burger. The patty was a little dry and not bursting with flavor but it was decent. I wouldn't wan tto pay more than $10 for it. I had the mac & cheese as my side and it was quite bland. I think someone stole my flavor for it! They do have some good side dish options and our server tried to make it better which was greatly appreciated. It was mentioned that the mac & cheese is hit & miss there so we obviously got a miss that night. The quesadilla looked really good and I'm told the beef dip was tasty. They brew their own beer and I was able to try most of them. All very enjoyable. All in all, I will definitely be returning, maybe not for a burger but definitely the friendly staff, cold beer and overall feel of the place. read more

A really fun vibe to the place with some cool food choices. The patio area is fantastic in the summer!

This is going to be a short review because I didn't even get a chance to try this place out. I called ahead of time because I figured it would be busy on early Sunday afternoon. The girl who answered was friendly and she did indicate it would be about an hour, as expected. The issue however is that just as I was asking if I could put my name done over the phone, or if I had to come by to do so, she apologized for the wait, told me to have a great day and hung up. Maybe a bit of a non-issue, but after such a weirdly poor experience (perhaps misunderstanding) I wasn't interested in exploring the restaurant further. read more

This is a must visit and experience the atmosphere, incredible food, out of the park, stellar beer and service is amazing!! Don't go anywhere else for BBQ. Trolley 5 is is must and make it a regular go to for family and friends hangouts. read more

I finally got a chance to eat and have some of the micro brews here. I'm a huge micro brew fan and like when I see a place in yyc going in the direction of, let's say Portland, my favorite micro brew and beer town. So here's my impression: I ordered the classic burger which on first impression was very lacklustre. The veggies on top felt flat with little effort put into making it feel fresh. I had also asked for sans tomato and it came with a big tomato that also didn't have a ton of flavor so I removed it. The meat had a good texture and you could tell that there was some ribeye in there but it was moderately cold unfortunately. I believe my first comment to my friend was "sorta tastes like Wendy's and Burger King had a burger baby together". As for the beer, I got the flight in order to try a few and was disappointed to see that 2 of their (8 I think?) Brews were out and both I really wanted to try. With the ones I did try, I have to say they make a nice IPA and Porter so I'd recommend trying those if you're a fan. The redemption song in all of this was the service. The (I assume manager) asked me how I liked my burger and was 100% accommodating in taking it back and adding some extra toppings at my request. Once I tried the $17 version of the $10 burger it was much better and actually hot. They charged me for the 10$ burger and not the extras which was nice enough and what I would expect from a brewpub. Going the extra mile would have meant covering the whole burger but hey...I did like the second one so I was happy to pay. Overall great service but not totally thrilled with the beer shortage or attention to detail in the food. I think if they had 12 of their own beers on tap and were out of 2 I wouldn't have even shrugged. I might go back, but I won't be the first of my group to recommend it for anything other than a few drinks before dinner elsewhere. read more

Great beer and service. Lots of seating and a good atmosphere! Happy hour prices are on par
