43 Best Sports Bars in Calgary

“The food was delicious. Looking over the menu I had a hard time deciding what I wanted LOL. We got the fried pickles and cottage cheese chips for apps. I got the power bowl while others got the steak, sandwich and buffalo chicken wrap. The kids got two cheese pizzas. My only knock was the server! She took forever to refill our drinks and did an ok job overall. The outdoor seating with games was fun!“

“Everyone is great as always. Food is awesome 😋“

“Melrose Cafe & Bar is a amazing cafe“

“They have the BEST WINGS in Calgary!!!! 1,000/10 🏆🤗“

“The Trans-Am Buffalo Chicken Wrap at Garage is a total winner—spicy, crispy, and packed with flavor. The buffalo chicken has just the right kick, balanced perfectly with cool ranch!

The service has always been friendly and prompt, and the room has a great energy—welcoming, lively, and never too loud. A must-try if you're craving an awesome chicken wrap, and good vibes all around!“

“Tavern 52 is what some may refer to as a dive bar, or maybe a biker bar(ish). Older crowd mainly 40+. Personally I like those types of bars. A refreshing change from the sterile franchises like Earls, Moxies, OJ’s and the likes I will be going back. Cheap beers and wings on “

“delicious food good service very friendly“

“I love this place, and continue to return time and time over again. Just recently had a birthday and in the app you birthday MONTH gives you a free plater of nachos as long as you buy a drink. Not only was the service fast and friendly but the size to the nachos were massive. So much so it was a perfect starter for two people.

Thanks Canadain Brew House for a memorable birthday.“

“Always a great experience thanks Schanks for entertaining me for over 20 years“

“Great atmosphere and decent prices“

“Good service and good and a friendly“

“A good friend of mine and I went to Buffalo.Bob's for Valentine's, believe it or not, and I have to say that the steak was just as good as the Keg. The food was amazing, and our server,and I can't remember her name, but she had brunette hair and was wearing a gray blazer was absolutely phenomenal. Buffalo Bobs is one of my favorite pubs to frequent and and it's just a nice little casual establishment. I would have picked going out for Valentine's to this pub over and Earls or the Keg any day. My friend had never been there before and we will definitely return again.“

“Best place in the city if you want great food!!! Awesome staff that treat you really good. Great vibes all around. Awesome deals everyday!!Go there with my son every week!!!“

“Excellent pizza!!! I was staying at the Holiday Inn next door and called in my order for pick up. And it was ready on time! The crust was superb - crispy and yet light, and the toppings were fresh. Reminds me of the deep dish pizzas I had in Chicago. I highly recommend getting the pizza. It's not a fancy place, but the service was courteous and efficient.“

“Awesome place for food and drinks“

“***UPDATE***
We had been avoiding Scottsman's well for some time. But yesterday we decided that we shouldn't be running away from negative energy of the bartender (see initial review) and instead being there, spreading positive energy. So we went to SW after a month.

To our 'huge' pleasant surprise, the promlematic bartender wasn't there anymore. On inquiring we got to know she doesn't work their anymore. We don't want anyone not to have their job but we wish everyone to have a job they can thrive in. We are hopeful she finds the job that she loves to wake up for, everyday! She was extremely detrimental for SW business and that means SW job was detrimental for her. So everything happens for a good.

Loved being in Scotsman's Well yesterday. Awesome staff (especially the current bartenders) and good choices in food. Changing 🌟 from 2 to perhaps 4 or 5. I thank the Management for being able to balance between employee rights and customers' needs or just general business ethics 🙏🏻.

***EARLIER REVIEW***
Scotsman's Well is a good place generally. However, there is one bartender who doesn't only makes lifes of people sitting on bar, miserable, but also that of employees around her. Based on our experience, we can see that she is probably a very senior employee, who is holding the wrong position right now. She is such a senior employee that some regular customers have grown old within that time (but that doesn't mean she is good for today)

As soon as you see her at bar, you want to fly away whether you are a customer or a fellow employee. Without her, things keep working so well. Even some customers and servers talk about it.

May be it's time for someone to get retired, or if not that, start using some therapy on how to be cheerful around people (especially when one's job requires that). Or, may be, just keep your personal life out of employment. Whatever way works for her.

I hope the Management understands this heart-felt review of an awesome place that becomes from a place of celebration or relaxation TO a place of bitterness and stress.

Looking forward to improvement. Everyone is great. It's just one person. And it's TIME.

Looking forward to update my review once this change happens.“

“Had a great time $5 Beers went down well“

“We ordered take-out for pickup at 5PM. The Steak Sandwich and blackened chicken were Perfection!“

“The sushi was delicious especially the spicy California Roll, I really liked the teriyaki Chicken and the Korrokke was to die for. The service was great friendly and very helpful in choosing the right dish for those who want recommendations. They have very comfortable seats with good space between the tables, the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed. I highly recommend visiting this awesome restaurant.“

“It was one of the worst places I have visited, especially the workers there, they lack respect in dealing with people, and I do not advise anyone to visit this place.

As for me, I only deleted one star because you are right and I have not tasted the food yet.. But I am talking to you about the service of the worker after he refused the order. Another driver came and he did not have the special Pizza thermos as I said and took the order and left and you did not refuse to give him the order as you did with me and if you want confirmation, check the cameras at that time and you will see what I am saying is correct.Thank you“

“We came to Stavros Pizza & Sports Bar for their wing special and were really impressed with the number of flavours available. It was tough to choose! We ended up going with Garlic Parmesan, Asian Blast, and Dill Pickle, and each had a bold, unique taste. The only downside was that the wings were a bit overdone, making them drier and crispier than we’d prefer.

The service, though, was top notch. Shelly was super friendly, checked in on us often, and made sure everything was running smoothly. The value was also great! Three orders of wings, a large Caesar salad, and drinks for just over $40. You really can’t beat that.

If you’re looking for a casual spot with great service, solid prices, and tons of wing options, Stavros is definitely worth checking out. We’ll be back and maybe next time to try their pizza!“

“Staff & Food FUNstic, sad no delivery ;- ( we'll be there in 20 min. Ray and Terez ;- )“

“Great wings & friendly service!“

“It’s a nice place , lots of good memories there . Kenan did a good with layout , theme and live entertainment ! Check it out on a weekend or meet a colleague there for lunch , the food is amazing .“

“I have been living in the neighborhood for over 15 years now. I had stopped into Swiggs a few years ago. I did think nay this place is not for me. I had heard about their fish and chips a couple months ago. I thought I would give it another try. I have been totally happy with the service and food now. I almost go in weekly for the steak, fish and chips or wings on their special nights. I am so happy I decided to go in. It is almost a weekly stop now. Thank you so much to the chef Francis - the steaks are awesome. Thank you so much to the Service staff - Justen and Adria. It is always a pleasure to see your smiling faces. Keep up the great job :)“

“Amazing service and food at Dutton's prior to seeing a concert on Monday night. We had the pierogies and Donaire and we shared both plates. Food came out quickly hot and exactly as ordered. Our waitress was prompt and brought a cheerful smile everytime she approached.“

“Delicious chicken wings and the Caesar was really good too“

“If your looking for a little sports bar with VLT's and lots of tvs this is the place for you. They had good drink specials and a variety of food options as well. The service was great and the staff were super helpful. Went on wing day and half of them were crispy and delicious then the last order was soggy and not appetizing. The tandoori wings stood out the most and we even ordered a second round of them. Will visit again“

“Great place, friendly and great Staff as well! Thanks 🙂“

“lol always awesome and I have to make this post 25 characters long, lots of characters there to be certain. I'm one of them“

“Sarb was the nicest server I have met in a long time. She is such a nice lady. I am glad we chose this restaurant for dinner. The food was great, and the service was excellent. I had the fish and chips, it’s yummy. I didn’t get a chance to take photos of our dinner, I was already half way done when I thought of it. :)
We definitely will keep coming back.“

“Great service, fun night, awesome food! Love hanging out here!“

“The pizza is always amazing. We ordered mozza sticks for the first time and it was lack luster to say the least. It does not mention when ordering the amount of sticks you get. We opened the container and there were 8 little mozza sticks. And instead of marinara sauce, it was salsa. I would not recommend the mozza sticks. The pizza I would definitely recommend.“

“My husband & I stopped by our favourite pub, Jameson's Brentwood, to treat ourselves to lunch. Just wanted to send out a sincere "Thank You" to the kind gentleman that paid for our lunch tab yesterday [Oct 4] at Jameson's. Such a lovely, thoughtful gesture which was gratefully appreciated. You made our week! Hope our paths cross & we meet again on our next visit. Great food & excellent service! Joanna & Nigel“

“Fabulous atmosphere and food. Went there for Father’s Day dinner and the braised ribs were some of the best that I have ever had, anywhere. 11 out of 10. Kudos.“

“Had a great time $5 Beers went down well“

“Best pub in Calgary. Excellent service, beer, and food. The atmosphere is upbeat and so many big-screen TVs doesn’t matter where you sit you are guaranteed to be able to view the game clearly. Good value for delicious food as well! All-around great pub!“

“New to Calgary and its been difficult to find pubs that feel like a second home here. I walked into Glenn’s job site a couple weeks ago, met Cat who provided outstanding service and she’s been pulling me back in ever since :) I’ve tried to find other bars like this one but so far Glenns is my #1. Amazing specials, great prices and great people!“

“This bar has a variety of food, including Asian fusion food. Very delicious also at a reasonable price. They have a number of screens playing sports game, we went there to watch the Oilers. Many screens, so you don't need to worry about sitting far away of not being able to see the screen. The food potion is a lot, even the appetizer. It would take a while for the server to notice you, but the service is nice, very friendly. You can park at the underground parking with no fee. We also tried the breakfast buffet before, also lots of options, great for watching euro cup in the morning.“

“A wonderful place to listen to some of Calgary top 🤘jammers backed by Doug Charters and his Pistol Noon🎸 band on a Sunday afternoon. Service is very good. Food is reasonably priced and typical good variety pub fare. My group of Mx and Mingles Over 50 Singles attended last Sunday and was very pleased with the energy and the event.😊 We will be back to attend more jamming sessions! 💥“

“The Fish Bowl Comedy Show every Wednesday is pretty rad, although I may be biased ;) The staff is incredibly friendly and the food is a reliable staple. Great brews and greater friends“

“I can't believe how long we have lived in the vicinity of "Tops" and not discovered it. The food is amazing. No more "restaurant loginess" after a meal. Everything we have tried there is excellent. It's not all about the pizza. Try the beef dip, the lasagna and the spaghatti and meatballs. Their Greek salad is perfect. I downrated "atmosphere" a bit because if you don't enjoy the sports bar sounds they have a nice room for you off to the side. It's a bit dark and there's no view. But who cares anyway? You will be treated like a guest, not just a customer.“

“Awesome service! Great people and relaxing atmosphere!“
