After many times browsing their very unique menu I got to go in today! I love the atmosphere and use of the historic building. The staff is friendly and very attentive. I had to try the favorite Reuben and my partner tried the Kassidy, both were delicious and we can't wait to try different items next time! The Crow is definitely a gem in town that I can't wait to share with others!

I’ve read a few reviews now that reflect the same experience we had. We ordered the bread dip - $10.00 for six very thinly sliced pieces of French bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. When it came we were a little shocked and how scarce it looked on the plate. We still remained optimistic while waiting for our sandwiches. Both sandwiches arrived and were served on small little cast iron square dishes that made our eyes bulge at one another. The “ complimentary chips “ the sandwiches come with are served in a, what I would describe as a dental office disposable cone shaped water cup, which contained maybe 6-9 chips because it’s so small. Which is worth mentioning because most meals at restaurants that are 16+ dollars come with a side, typically a decent sized side of fries. This is not that. The sandwich isn’t worth the cost in my opinion. My mother ordered the Ruben which was a little bit better than what I ordered. Her sandwich was small, as was mine, but hers had a few slices of meat but her cheese inside was hard and not melted. Mine on the other hand was the Sweet Basil it was advertised as “ Provolone, sweet roasted Pepper, Chicken Breast and Pesto Mayo grilled cheese “. There was 1 piece of deli meat chicken breast on the sandwich, 1 small piece of red pepper inside, and I couldn’t tell if there was pesto mayo because I couldn’t taste it at all. I couldn’t taste the chicken I’m assuming because the amount of chicken was so small, same thing with the pepper, could not taste it. There was quite a bit of provolone, that’s all you could taste. If you want very small portions with scarce limited ingredients, I’d say - you’ll enjoy it. If you want to feel full and feel like you’re not getting ripped off - I’d go somewhere else. I see the business owners responses are very rude to customers complaining about this issue - that’s also in poor taste and reflects badly and doesn’t help with the issue their obviously coming into. I think maybe constructive criticism can give you feedback that the public isn’t satisfied with how the food reflects the price.

We stayed at The Crow over Stampede weekend in Ponoka and loved it! The apartment is beautifully decorated, spacious, and very comfortable. The shower is amazing, and being right above a restaurant made it extra convenient. A great spot to relax after a busy day — highly recommend!

We stopped here on the way to Gull Lake due to pouring rain; we enjoyed the atmosphere & food at this charming little spot tucked off of the Main Street. They seem to specialize in charcuterie boards on the weekends and serve a large variety of local craft beers - we would definitely hit this charming & unique gastropub again!

Please stay away from this restaurant. Please stay away from the town of Ponoka because people here clearly have no idea what food should taste like and cost, given how high the ratings are for this restaurant. I ordered a bread dip, that costed me $10 for six slices of common bread. The sandwich I ordered was absolutely disgusting. It made me feel like I needed a mouth transplant. The worst food I’ve ever had in my entire life. I also paid an additional $4.50 for a salad that came with six pieces of leaves and some vinegar. The dish also came with chips, but the portion was so small it contained only 7 pieces. How people give this restaurant five stars is mind blowing. I am certain that the restaurant buys reviews.
