We had the cheese pizza which was absolutely terrible! The grandkids wouldn’t eat it after 1 bite so I tried it. It made me feel ill. The Spicy Chicken wrap was average at best and the fries were cold.

We haven’t been to Spark for a few years. But, they had a delicious chicken sandwich we thought about. Hand breaded breast, coleslaw, mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce. Just the best. It’s what you see in their picture on line. Today we finally went back in anticipation of this work of art. Such a major disappointment. A dry premade, formed chicken meat with shredded lettuce on a dry, slightly burned bun. No mayo, sweet chili sauce or coleslaw. Just dry meat that had a weird taste on a bun with lettuce. Very sad. Please bring back the original one you had and we’ll come back to the restaurant. Until then, no thanks. Not worth $13.

Very disappointed. Came for the chicken sandwich because the last time I had it, it was SO good. Everything in the past was made from scratch, the chicken was huge and juicy, topped with a delicious slaw, cilantro and sweet chilli sauce. It was incredible. So fresh. This time though, we got this dry, premade, horrible tasting chicken patty with little to no mayo and shredded romaine on a dry, slightly burnt bun. That’s it. I asked for a side of sweet chilli sauce to try to save the sandwich, but they didn’t even have any to offer. It was so sad. I wouldn’t go so far as to say inedible, but my expectations were high from the quality of the food in the past. Left with a bad taste in my mouth, literally and figuratively. Hopefully they can get back to the high quality they used to offer.

Prices are on the high side but it's the cost of supporting Telus Spark. The good thing is the entree bowls didn't leave us hungry for more. I had the bulgogi pulled pork which was ok but i tried a piece of my kid's lemongrass grilled chicken which I liked better.

Maybe the prepackaged food is better, but I ordered several of the hot menu items and they were honestly terrible. I am not a picky eater in anyway, but this food is just terrible. It's like they aren't using salt or edible ingredients.Hot dog wasn't even good. Only the fries were ok. Quesadilla tasted super wierd, sliders as well... Maybe they have some ok items but seriously they need to eat this themselves or something

Side salad only had 4 little sliced cucumbers and spinach, nothing else! Also, you can't just slice a breaded chicken cutlet and call it chicken fingers.
Excellent quality and prices, great selection! My kids and I make an annual trip from Edmonton to Calgary to visit the zoo and the Telus Spark Centre. We visited the Social Eatery for lunch, and were very impressed with the superb menu selection and customer service. The cafeteria changed in March 2016 and is far superior to the previous one. The menu has a wide variety of delicious-sounding food to choose from, including great choices on the kids' menu, all for a much more reasonable price than the previous cafeteria. The cafeteria was spotless and there were staff members constantly picking up trays and cleaning tables. We chose our food items (kids' mac and cheese, kids' fries, kids' cheese bun beets/cottage cheese for me) and we even purchased a Gatorade and a lime pop simply because they looked delicious and the prices were extremely reasonable. Our meal was delivered to our table and the lady who delivered it was extremely personable and very nice. We enjoyed the bar stools and table, and the meal was lovely. We would not hesitate to recommend this cafeteria to anyone, but we weren't quite brave enough to try a little packet of dried crickets! We are quite particular when we eat out and I would return to this cafeteria anytime for a delicious meal or snack. We will return to Calgary next summer again and hope to enjoy another fantastic meal here!

Amazing selection of healthy and comfort food. Love the Well Juices and fiasco, and the avocado tuna toast with heirloom tomatoes was delicious. The sliders were great for 2 small children to share.

Bring your own lunch.
Expensive and okay food.
Very expensive for the food
