    We had our wedding here on October 12, 2024 including our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Our day was absolutely perfect and we owe that to Ashley & Ernie for working with us to plan + execute it. Ernie + Ashley were responsive, informative, and transparent with our contract. Their event package is full of flexible options and is affordable. On the day of, Ashley was organized and professional. All she required were inspiration photos and she made the ceremony and reception stunning with our florals and decor. The service was impeccable all night - I felt very taken care of as the bride and our guests said the same. There was never a line up for drinks despite having 80 people in the room. I continue to get compliments on the brisket! The DJ kept the party going by reading the room. Dustin + Tara also made the evening run well including an easy + effortless clean up the next day. The only feedback I have received is that the cocktail hour in the basement was loud. Thank you so much Trolley 5 for our perfect day!

    Absolutely amazing! This was our first stop while visiting Calgary and we were welcome with open arms and incredible service! We ordered the more cowbell burger with fresh cut fries and yam fries. Food was delicious. Drinks were awesome! Atmosphere was phenomenal and perfect setting for watching hockey The staff was attentive and made sure everyone felt comfortable. The manager, Dustin, was checking on everyone to make sure everyone had a great time. His care and work ethic really shows through the restaurant and the staff. The staff was all very helpful and kind! We appreciate Dustin and the entire crew for making our day! Excellent!!! What a welcome!!

    Unfortunately the beer I wanted to order and that was listed on the menu and the current beer blackboard, was not available. The IPA was ok, not one of my favorites. My partners Tuna Bowl was quite good, my brisket sandwich not so much. Ok in terms of sod pub food, but for this highly praised, downtown brewery location, a bit of a let down. Staff was friendly and the service was prompt. All in all, a just ok place.
