Great food and ambiance! Every Saturday from four to six pm, they have free live music. It's definitely one of my favourite places in the city.

My go to passing through Edmonton. A wonderful hole-in-the-wall that is worth the stop. You'll see what I mean when you get there.

My son & I went to the Downtown Market on Saturday & wanted to have some lunch. Had never been to the Cask & Barrel before. Thoroughly enjoyed the food the friendly staff & the atmosphere. There will definitely be a return visit to enjoy the live entertainment. Thank you Chris & Kimberly!

Thank you to the amazing Kimberly at The Cask and Barrel who was of tremendous assistance when I was choking today… she kept her cool, provided support, and stayed with me until I was able to clear out the blockage! FYI the food here is amazing… it was my own fault I was choking!!!

Fantastic service! Great place to gather and chat with friends.
Was in the Cask & Barrel last night. What a wonderful experience for me and my friends. A staff member who wasn’t even on shift was doing table service making old fashion cocktails for customers purely to enhance the experience of being there. It’s a modern take on a ‘Cheers’ experience with what were obviously many regulars, in itself a sign of a great bar. Going back today for their Garage Session free live music - today with a Juno award winning band.1

This is the local’s choice on 104 Street* …. every Friday and Saturday. Operated by the longstanding former manager of the Bronx/Starlight room, one of the greatest live-music venues in North America, good music is a guarantee (as well as appearances by musicians from Edmonton’s most venerated bands). Fantastic ambiance and great food are a bonus. All-ages shows on Saturdays from 4-6pm … show up early.

I came here for dinner with a group of 8, and we all had probably the worst restaurant experience. Our waitress, Susan, was making table side smoked old fashioned and that's where the night took a turn. We watched her have at least 4 drinks and then she sat at a booth with other customers (we assume friends) while we sat waiting for food/drinks. She was with them for at least half an hour while multiple customers were making their own drinks at the station while she coached them. Going off how she was acting through out the night she definitely wasn't sober.The other worker, a gentleman with a ponytail, did his best to tend to the entire restaurant by himself but overall wasn't a good experience.The atmosphere was like we were at someone's house party and were a nuisance to be served. It took a significantly long time to get any food or drink refills and probably half hour to get our bills.Would not recommend coming here, the food was decent but not worth the awkward embarrassment to be in an establishment that has workers acting that way.To end on a positive note they did have NASA TV on which was pretty interesting that that's even a channel.

Awesome place to stop by for post-event munchies and a pint. Really good mixed drinks, had 2 and they were both awesome. Service isn't super prompt, but for a late-night stop, I don't think that's am essential rating guide. Definitely will be back, especially if we need a late night snack and a drink.Very low chairs, most def a lounge-style vibe. The music is definitely not quiet, but able to have a conversation. Albeit, had to raise my voice to be heard.Recommend the spinach artichoke dip, small portion but delicious. I do think that they could use 1 more staff serving late night though.
