The food was incredible, the portions are massive and the service was fast and friendly. We got a lot more then we bargained for when we found out they were hosting a dragshow. The cover for the show was easily worth it. The atmosphere was so inviting and friendly. We had an amazing time and cant wait to go again. We had the crunch wrap, the Bonaire, and the churros with a couple of their delicious alcohol free mocktails. I cant recommend them enough for a fully vegan pub.

I was sad to see how empty it was for supper time on a Saturday. I went for Happy Hour 4-7pm. the service was quick and the food was delicious. The plant-based wings are the best in the city, hands down, no contest.

Their Dill Pickle poutine was SO good, would definitely eat again. We are also a fan of their $10 unlimited corn dogs which happen on Tuesdays. Great Service! Thank you 🙏

A vegan bar are you kidding me 😭 this place restores my faith in humanity. Caught an oilers game here, had nachos, dill pickle wings, and everyone else had burgers (1/2 off burgers on Thursdays). The best chill vibes

Best vegan wings ever. Must try. So good. Need to figure out how to make them. We live too far away.

Love this place!! I hope it never changes, and for the love of gods Edmonton start dragging your friends here before it disappears!
Come here every time I visit the city, well worth the pain of finding parking.

“Inclusive” in name only — a deeply humiliating and Kafkaesque experience
I went to Buck expecting a safe, inclusive space — instead, I left feeling humiliated, harassed, and misrepresented in ways that have continued to affect me.
I’m a former employee of this company at a sister bar, and my experience here was utterly discrasful. I was there with a close female friend and coworker, joking and blowing off steam after work — yes, we use coarse language with each other, but it’s part of how we relate, and it was mutual, consensual, and lighthearted.
Early in the evening, I used the men’s washroom (which I later learned is labeled as gender neutral — the signage was minimal and unclear). While using the urinal, a woman stood behind me and watched me urinate. Startled and uncomfortable, I reflexively said, “wrong washroom,” and was immediately berated for not understanding the space was gender neutral. I wasn’t trying to police anyone’s identity — I was reacting to a basic violation of privacy. My discomfort was completely dismissed.
Later, a patron across the bar overheard me joking with my friend and began loudly accusing me of being disrespectful to women. The staff quickly took their side without asking for context. I tried to explain — we were joking about work, and my friend was not only fine with it, she initiated much of it. But I was told I was being inappropriate and threatened with removal. My friend even tried to clarify with the staff, but they didn’t believe her.
From then on, I felt watched, judged, and unable to speak without being attacked — as if I’d been assigned a role in a story I didn’t write. It was surreal and deeply distressing. I later learned that staff at the bar now believe I’m in an abusive relationship with my friend. That false narrative is devastating — not only because it’s untrue, but because it’s being spread by people who never once asked for the truth.
This bar presents itself as a progressive, inclusive space. In reality, it felt like the opposite — a place where assumptions override facts, where inclusion only applies if you conform to an unspoken code, and where expressing discomfort (even around basic bodily privacy) gets you labeled as the problem.
If this is how The Buck treats guests — especially those who don’t fit a narrow mold of “acceptable” behavior — then it’s not truly inclusive. It’s just performative.
I left feeling silenced, violated, and erased. And I haven’t stopped thinking about it since.

Absolutely insane wings, if you love sauce and are sick of cartilage and veins getting stuck in your teeth please trust me when I tell you these are the best wings you’ll ever have and you will have no idea they’re vegan! Foster is also such a gansgter, come here on an off day and hang out with the coolest bartender on whyte who will let you play your own music and give you the best advice ever ❤️

This restaurant treats their customers badly. They are not smiling and treat you like a human being. Bad.
