Bookers BBQ + Crab Shack
bookersbbq.comEstablished in 1998 in a century-old brick warehouse, Bookers BBQ + Crab Shack is a hidden gem at the gateway to Calgary's East Village. Known for its Southern cooking, smokehouse barbecue, and all-you-can-eat sprees, Bookers also transforms its converted restaurant into a house of blues with scheduled live music every Friday and Saturday night. From taste buds to eardrums, Bookers BBQ + Crab Shack guarantees an entirely Southern experience with a commitment to feel-good, laid-back hospitality
Bottlescrew Bill’s
bottlescrewbill.comSituated on the corner of 10th Avenue and 1st Street SW, Bottlescrew Bill's is a long-time fixture on the Calgary pub scene. Owned by the Allan family since the start, the restaurant side (Buzzards) opened in 1980 followed by Bottlescrew Bill's Pub in 1985.
Today both sides share the same great kitchen, beer list and service, offering over 300 beers from around the world. As expected, the menu includes much-loved pub staples such as nachos, wings (try them Bill’s style!) and poutine.

Briggs Kitchen + Bar
briggskandb.comThe idea of Briggs Kitchen + Bar is built on these cornerstones. We feel that taking food back to more simple times by cooking over natural fire, touching it with a little finesse and getting it in front of our guests for a reasonable price is what it is all about.
