King Edward Cafe - Strathmore

What a beautiful venue! The roof top patio is fantastic. Calgary needs more live music! Awesome bands. Can't wait to go back!

Fun atmosphere, amazing food, and great live music! We booked a table for 2 for dinner after visiting the stampede grounds. We saw the restaurant as we passed by on our way to the grounds and it looked like a fun place to grab a bite to eat. I’m so glad we decided to give it a try. The band was awesome and the service was great. We ordered 2 drinks and a meal to share. We tried their new “Stampede Bowl” you pick 2 bases, 1 protein, slaw, pickles, and cornbread. My friend has a gluten allergy and we were surprised at how many items on the menu she could have (fyi: not 100% celiac friendly shared fryers). We shared the garlic shrimp bowl with mashed potatoes and roasted veggies, and we’re pleasantly surprised at the presentation and flavours. Super impressed! Everything on the plate was absolutely delicious. It was light but filling enough, and the perfect way to end our busy stampede day. Only small complaint is that the prices are a tad high, but it was worth it for a fun night out. And we completely understand that during times like this, food supplies are pricey as well. Overall, we loved our dinner at the King Eddy. We’ll definitely return knowing how amazing the food and atmosphere were.

The atmosphere and history of this place is incredible. We had brunch there on Sunday and the place was pretty full with two musicians that had the crowd laughing and clapping along. My wife went for the French toast which was a huge portion and really good while I opted for the King Eddy burger which was also really tasty. It was really cool to see how Studio Bell The National Music Centre rebuilt the King Eddy and incorporated it along with the buildings history into a modern landmark of Calgary. Being able to see the Rolling Stone mobile recording studio and take in all exhibits next door made the visit worth while.

An amazing atmosphere that offers live music with tasty food. The staff is attentive the moment you're seated bringing you water immediately. Seating was spaced out well.

Love the venue! Some wonderful artists here, and it's always hard to believe that I am sitting right beside the iconic Rolling Stones Mobile Studio. The service is excellent, and the staff are super friendly and attentive. I had the veggie platter last time we were there. The chips were excellent, and the hummus tasted great, but it was watery and kept dripping on the table. The celery sticks were good, but the carrots were mealy and didn't taste fresh. Other than that, the Eddy has always been a great experience, and I wish I could give it another half or three quarters of a star.
