Eva Schnitzelhaus

Eva Schnitzelhaus was born out of the desire to serve German food in a fun and casual environment, while taking inspiration from the Pacific Northwest. The service is fast-paced and relaxed while the food is simple and made with great ingredients in a traditional manner. It clearly made an impression on our readers, who voted it as the best new restaurant in the city.

Boomtown Burritos

This restaurant opened in December 2021 and was started by Christian Barnard and Patrick Lynch. Boomtown Burritos is an unfussy, “leave-your-BS-at-the-door,” independent place to knock a few back and dine on some top quality tex-mex with your pals, or grab that vibe to go.

Launched in Calgary in 2011, the CRAFT movement has been spreading across Canada ever since. A visit to CRAFT is meant to be an experience connecting you to the community and culture, and is a place where fresh local food and craft beer from all over the world come together under one roof.
